The party is a celebration with the Graduate at the centre of the festivities. That said; there are no rules. The party could be anything from an intimate gathering of family in your backyard to a ballroom filled with everyone your child knows, even your local bowling alley.
No matter what you choose, remember it’s not about you, it is the Graduate. Your child has made a great achievement and through that, the party can take on an element of the Graduate. Mix in a little bit of their hobbies, their favourite sport or entertainment.
