Graduation Party Checklist

Before the Event
Invitations/RSVP/Other Printed Items
___ Invitation to the party! - From your local party store, or get a personalized invitation.
There are lots of graduation party's happening at the same time so get this out early and try to make it special!
___ Response Card and Response Envelope - Not standard for a graduation party, but, if you are having lots of
out of towners, it's not a bad idea.
___ Directional Card - Basically a map to where the party is being held. If it's at your house, this is probably not
needed, but, if you're going to a restaurant or a hall, it's a nice touch.
___ Seating Cards - Only if you are having a sit down affair.
___ Agenda - I think this is a nice touch for out of town guests. Especially if there are other informal get-togethers
over the weekend.
___ Signage/Sign-In Boards - If you are getting any special signs, sign-in boards, or cut-outs, now is the time to
order them. has a great selections, or you can go to your local printer, or do them yourself.
