Graduation

Graduation season is officially right around the corner! How are you going to commemorate your graduates' significant achievement? Take advantage of the warm weather and host a fun backyard graduation party, whether it's for elementary school, high school, or college. Here are some innovative outdoor graduation party ideas to get you started and on the right track to creating a celebration no one will forget!

Outdoor Kitchen

Kick off your party right with some delicious finger foods and appetizers. Dips, fruits, fresh produce, and grilled bread make for great meal options for your guests! Fire up your grill, grab all your ingredients and head over to your Cambridge Outdoor Kitchen to treat everyone to a delicious barbecue. An outdoor kitchen is convenient and makes cleaning up a breeze. Plus, everyone loves hanging out by the grill to see what's cooking! Consider creating a bar cart to keep all your drinks organized and nicely displayed! Serve up a variety of drinks including cold sodas, water, sangria and unique cocktails.

Outdoor pool

Looking for a more playful and fun party vibe? With fruity cocktails and festive floats you can throw an unforgettable pool party everyone will love! Nothing feels better than splashing around in the refreshing water on a hot summer day. With a glistening pool as your party's focal point, decorate the rest of your outdoor space with your graduation theme! Music plays a key role in setting the mood for your party so put together a summertime playlist to keep your guests happy and upbeat. Make sure to place a few cozy lounge chairs around your pool patio for everyone to relax and soak in some sun.

Firepit

As the party rolls into the night, remember that it may get chilly outside. Place some chairs around your firepit to create a cozy space where everyone can relax and unwind. A Cambridge Pavingstones fire feature is the perfect addition to any outdoor living space for this time of year! The warm glow of your firepit will transform your outdoor space into a magical oasis. End the night right with a tasty gooey treat! Set up a s’mores station with an array of different toppings for your guests to get creative!

But, most importantly, have fun when throwing an outdoor graduation party this summer. You can pretty much guarantee a good time if the weather is nice, the beverages are flowing, there's lots of food, and everyone is happy. So grab yourself a cold drink, put on your shades, and celebrate your graduates success!
