It’s that time of year where high school seniors, college seniors, and those in their final year of pursuing their associate’s or post graduate degrees are celebrating a major milestone. Graduation is always cause for a big celebration, but many graduates will not be able to do the typical graduation ceremonies and parties this year. This doesn’t have to mean that the occasion is any less special though! This week at GiftWorksPlus we wanted to share some fun and unique ways to celebrate your favorite graduates this year.

Get the Garb

If your graduate isn’t going to have their ceremony, it can be tempting to forego spending money on the cap and gown, but hear us out! A special part of celebrating is getting to put on that cap and gown and wear those sashes with pride. Plus, for parents, it is always a proud moment to take a picture with their graduate in their full cap and gown with their diploma.

Take a Tour

If you’ve just graduated, chances are it has been awhile since you’ve taken a tour of your school. If you’re able to get on campus, give a tour of your favorite campus spots to your friends or family. If you’re with fellow classmates, revisit your freshman dorms, favorite study spots, or any place on campus with your best memories. Don’t forget to snap a few pictures and see if you can compare them to photos from your first year in school. 

Throw a Grad Party

Not in the mood for a big get-together? Celebrate in a different way. Get some close friends and family together at a park for a BBQ or picnic, head out on a lake for some kayaking or boating, or just pick up a cake and balloons and have a small party at home.

However you decide to celebrate, as a graduate, or as a proud family member or friend, you will want to help remember the occasion! Check out our graduation photo frames on the GiftWorksPlus website. You can customize these photo frames with names, dates, inspirational quotes, and even pick out designs based on the specific school. They are perfect to frame your photos of graduation day and make for an even more perfect graduation gift. Check them out today!
