"Get your Guns and Roses UP!" Graduation Celebration




May brings such excitement, for most it simply means that summer is only weeks away. For others, it means graduation! Graduation parties are so much fun, but they can also be one of the hardest ones to coordinate, especially if your guest of honor is a "guy". This inspiration board was created with my nephew in mind. He is going to Texas Tech in the fall- so my focus was red and black. What better than hostessing a casino theme party!!




Almost everything that goes with casino games comes in red and black- cards, dice, dominoes. Go all out setting up tables for guests to visit, mingle, eat and drink- but then when the social hour is over- let them keep the energy going with some fun casino games. Be sure to pick up some prizes if you don't want your guests to actually gamble.







Take a simple theme and ramp it up a little by playing around with it- "Get your Guns UP" would have been great, but adding the Roses to the theme- gives it a little more "POP"... Guests could dress up like Big Hair 80's bands...how fun would that be... well, you might want to run it past your graduate... ;)









Serve red drinks- Red Crush, old Coca Cola bottles, or Dr. Pepper bottles





Love that you can special order M&M's in colors or personalized. Special touches all around the serving tables will make your guest feel special.
