18 Insanely Cute Graduation Decorations For Your Party

Many people (including myself) often give money as a graduation gift so make it easy on them with this college fund QR picture.

If they graduated college already, get them a life advice bucket where people can put their advice in!

2. chalkboard

You are going to need something for people to know they are in the right place. We have seen many graduation parties and the best always have a sign in the front yard.

It can also be annoying to have people calling you every five minutes to see if they are in the right place!

3. Self-serve drinks

Any type of party can get expensive so try to save where you can.

You can create a beverage stand and have all of these drinks out in a row so people can see all of their options.

4. photo display

The graduate needs some photo display! This one is from Amazon and comes with everything but the photos. You could also buy a Polaroid camera and the guest take photos with the graduate and hang them on this.

9. table cloth

Another way to save money while still throwing a super cute graduation party is buying a tablecloth. Amazon sells a bunch of different styles so you can pick your favorite!

We love these cause you can pack it up right after and not ruin the actual table.

10. cupcake toppers

If you are having cupcakes instead of a huge cake or fruit assortment, get these toppers. They come with a 2024 sign, cap sign, and a diploma sign!

11. Marquee Light Up Sign

This light-up sign is PERFECT for an indoor graduation party! You can have it on the table or in the kitchen or anywhere else you have in mind.

12. card box

Some people don’t want to scan the QR code to donate money so get this card box for the guest. You can put it on your gift table so guests don’t feel pressured to gift anything but also can if they want.

13. LARGE Marquee Light Up Sign

If you have been looking at graduation party photos on Pinterest or Instagram, you have seen these Marquee lights. They are perfect for hosting a backyard grad party and even better for photos!

14. guest book

We have seen a wide variety of how people do a guest book. We have seen people sign a yearbook or take pictures of their guests but if your grad is graduating college, do this instead.

The grad can hang this up in her house right next to her diploma!

15. plates & napkins

OMG!

The biggest tip we can give to anyone celebrating something or throwing a party is to use plastic silverware and cups. Your guest won’t take care of the glass as well as you think and these are VERY CHEAP alternatives.

If you don’t like these, just go to Amazon and find a different set, but please don’t use glass.

16. kindergarten to 12 grade picture banner

These are especially perfect if you are celebrating a high school graduation. You can put the grad’s pictures in here from kindergarten to 12th grade to show her growth and look back in the past.

17. graduation sash

Every graduate deserves to feel special when they’re celebrating milestones in their life!

18. who knows the grad best

We actually made these for our viewers and they have been a big hit so we decided to put them here as well!

Guests sometimes need something to do. So you can put these on the tables and have a competition on who knows the grad best!
