Graduation Party Tips


Can you believe we're half way through February already?! I mean, I feel like I was just eating a turkey-less Thanksgiving day meal with my family as if it were yesterday. Then with a blink of an eye, it was Christmas. Then of course, next came the best day of the year (my birthday, January 17th). Now I'm looking at the calendar dreaming about the upcoming bachelorette parties I'll be attending for my besties within the next few months. As overwhelming as it is, I'm getting really exciting.

The next big thing for high schoolers and college students is graduation. This can be an overwhelming time for those in charge of planning the graduation party. Not to fear, ACE is here! If you have any questions, feel free to visit our website at http://www.acepartyandtents.com/ or give us a call anytime M-F 9-5 at (317) 872-8368. We're more than happy to help you through the process.

In the meantime, here are some pre-planning tips before you begin:

First of all, it's hard to get an idea of how many people to expect because people show up at different times- hence an "open house" graduation style party. Expect your guests spread out during the entire time as opposed to all at once.

Most often though, your typical graduation party will require a 20X30 or 20X40 size tent. A 20X30 tent will hold about 6 tables: 4 tables for seating, 1 table to set food on, and 1 for memorabilia. Remember, this is for your standard backyard graduation party. You can always go with a bigger tent if you choose to have extra space... or if you're attempting to invite the entire school and surrounding neighborhoods! Ha!

Another tip to keep in mind when it comes to planning a graduation party is to decorate with a matching theme. This can be the high school in which the student attended or the college that they're planning to attend. We have several different color tents to choose from that you can color coordinate to fit the theme (just to clarify, it's one single stripe along the top perimeter of the tent). We also have chairs, flatware, linens, and much more.

Let us know how we can help take away some of your stress. We're here to make your event run as smoothly as possible. You can check out pricing and pictures online, or feel free to stop in anytime during business hours. Let us ACE your next event!

  1. Want to arrange a college graduation party for my younger brother at one of local Seattle venues as he has just completed his graduation. His friends will be joining the party too. Hope to arrange everything perfectly!
