So here in PA, we have big Grad Parties too.... all 4 of mine got one from high school and my two college grads got one as well... but if two grad the same year, it's one party for both.
So last year it was my Pitt girl and my son from high school. I had big frames with photos that I had taken. Half the tables were Pitt colors, the other half Neshaminy colors, both with center pieces to match. I made a cup cake stand for each from flower pot n foam boards to make a stack of "grad caps". And the high school kid got a row of school photos (Prek-12th) on stakes leading from out front to our backyard.
We also have TV set up with a slide show made from pages of the high school kiddos grad book and clips of home movies from birth to graduation.
We do most food in crock pots so it stays hot enough and I can enjoy the party and not cook while we have peeps here.
