Graduation Party Ideas

It's that time of year again for long robes, funny hats and various renditions of Pomp and Circumstance. Bright-eyed high school seniors eagerly anticipate graduation and the excitement of college, while college graduates anxiously await the "real world."

No matter where your graduate is heading, Reasor's has all your graduation party-planning needs covered. Let us help you plan the perfect, memorable celebration your graduate will never forget.

The Guest List
Close friends and family, or a huge party with everyone you know? Once you select a date and time for the party, make sure you send out invitations well in advance to give everyone a chance to clear their schedule. You won't want anyone to miss out on this momentous occasion. The sooner you know how many guests are attending, the sooner you'll be able to plan your grocery list. Consider planning a joint party with your graduates close friends. That way you can share the cost of food, beverages and decorations.

Theme It
Does your graduation party have a theme? A Mexican fiesta, a backyard barbeque, or a Hawaiian luau are popular themes to choose from. Be creative and choose a theme that reflects the personality of your graduate. Be sure to decorate with framed photos of your graduate at all ages. Guests will love to see how much they have grown up!

The Menu
Once you select a theme for the party, menu planning is easy. How about a build-your-own taco bar for a fiesta-themed party? Or, serve grilled ham and pineapple for a luau. Firing up the grill for some classic hamburgers and hot dogs is a great way to feed a lot of people. You'll find everything on your list at Reasor's, from tender juicy cuts of meat to fresh fruit and vegetables for all the trimmings.

A Sweet Finish
A unique way to finish the meal is a beautiful, custom photo cake from Reasor's bakery. Bring in your favorite photograph and our professional cake decorators will personalize your cake any way you like it. Your graduate will love seeing their face on their own custom dessert! Cakes and cookies can be customized with school colors, or to match the party theme.
