Its graduation time and one of life’s most memorable occasions nears.

The class of 1988 still remembers that momentous occasion and one day the class of 2008 will be celebrating their 20th year reunion!  Sometimes you have the opportunity to celebrate multiple graduations and reunion years at the same event.

Throwing and outdoor or backyard party works very well for these occations.  Graduate paper party goods are the best way to decorate for this hybrid party: part formal, part informal.

For instance, there are often early morning commencement ceremonies that are followed by a series of party hopping type activities.

If graduation day is during the warm months which it usually but not always is, then the foods and refreshments should be in keeping with refrigeration limitations.
