Graduation Party

 

    Graduation is right around the corner and there is no place better than The Oaks bed and breakfast in Sulphur Springs, to host your party.  With an outdoor space for games and fun, while visiting and conversations can happen inside.  We hosted another great party at the last Saturday and more to come in future weeks.  The graduate wanted a crawfish boil and we delivered.  The food and party were a hit.  How you do you like to boil your crawfish?  We always have our boils loaded.  Shrimp, sausage, veggies and more fill the pot along with the crawfish. Add some spice and you have a great dinner to help celebrate the graduate or another family holiday. 

    Decorations were made easy since the grad wanted to feature images and team jerseys that she wore throughout her youth.  A beautiful balloon arch from Paris Party Rentals and flowers from Sulphur Springs Floral rounded out the décor.  With the jerseys displayed around the car port you could see she stayed active.  We displayed her photos on our moveable wall, with fishing line and paper clips.  The remaining photos were placed on the tables inside so that they would not blow away in the wind. 

   

     Our favorite part of the decorations the grad put together was the photo backdrop.  All those college brochures finally came in handy.  A photo backdrop made from all the brochures that college sent over the years.  They really show off how much waste colleges spend on attracting students. Either way it also creating a talking piece to see where your student actually applied or you could find your alma mater in the mix. So creative and fun!

    Since you never know what people will want to eat and there were little kids attending, we had a grazing board and desserts inside for everyone to enjoy.  Kid friendly drinks and of course apple sauce and fruit salad, go a long way into making everyone feel like they have something they can enjoy.  

    The weather could not have been more perfect for an indoor/outdoor graduation party.  We hope the graduate feels the love and appreciation of those who came out to support her.  Good luck on your future endeavors.
