1. Hanging Lights
Hanging lights between trees or other structures is a great way to add some flare to your party!
These look great during the day, but even better when it gets a little darker. If you’re planning your outdoor grad party for later in the day, these are perfect!
2. Jar of lights
Battery operated string lights in a jar are perfect for centerpieces. Tape the battery pack to the lid to make it even more picture perfect!
3. Photo Booth
A photo booth is perfect for a grad party, especially at an outdoor grad party!
All of your friends that come to the party will love the awesome instagram opportunity, too!
4. Chalkboard Signs
Chalkboard signs are perfect for outdoor graduation parties, especially for listing grad party games, food items, or other instructions in such a cute way.
5. Floral Centerpieces
Floral centerpieces are a perfect finishing touch for an outdoor grad party. Fill these jars with some local flowers and a cute sign with your graduating year or a small baby picture.
6. S’mores station
Have a firepit at your venue or house where the grad party is being held? This adorable idea for a s’mores station isn’t just another food option, it’s an activity in itself, too!
Perfect for adults and kids! Everyone will love this interactive food.

Keeping drinks in these containers is much better than an open bowl when having an outdoor party.
These containers keep bugs out, and are much more functional and very cute compared to a standard bowl!

Displaying cupcakes on a tier stand is so cute, and functional, too!
We did this at my grad party, and it was definitely a crowd pleaser.
