subject: Retro Graduation Parties [print this page] Retro graduation parties are the best fun if you can pick and era that your party guests will love. You also need to be able to carry it off with a well decorated venue, music, food and other entertainment. Even the favors should have the idea of the era you have chosen. Your guests also need to be able to feel like they are part of the party. However thanks to the popularity of retro parties there is a great deal of stuff available to help you put on the perfect retro graduation parties. In fact I am often amazed to hear our children talk about having those retro CDs and other items with such enthusiasm.
One of the most visually significant eras was the 1980s. This era gave us big hair, glam rock, wonderful bands like Duran Duran and lots of news stories and events. There are many suppliers of 1980s party goods through stores and online stores that it is relatively simple to do. If this is your graduates favourite era and it is the party theme they wish to go with then you should be able to carry it off quite well.
Starting with the invitations you can set the mood for the party and let your guests know you are having a complete 1980s party. The invitations should be somewhat glam with bold sweeping colors or tie die, just like make up artists did with the big stars at the time. You can word the invitations such that the guests know it is a 1980s party and they must wear costume and take part. The decorations for the party can be found online and in stores. There are lots of glam posters, sweeping colors of gossamers, posters of starts and people with big hair, pictures of stars like Madonna at the time. There are lots of great movies from that era with great merchandise you can use. You can also decorate your guests with big hair and have a make up artists give them the 1980s look.
There is lots of brilliant compilation CDs full of great 1980s music. You may like particular artists like Duran Duran or even the UK band ABC. Also some old favourites like Elton John have their 1980s music too. Then just arrange 19080s food and favors. The favors could be disco ball earring or key chains.
