Tips for the Perfect Graduation Party

You are here:

  3. Tips for the Perfect Graduation…

Where did the time go?  The end of the school year is quickly approaching, and before you know it, Grads will be donning their caps and gown and walking down the aisle (in person!)

Unlike the Class of 2020, this year’s class will be able to walk across the stage and get that diploma they have been working for all these years.  Now that we are able to celebrate together, it’s time to start thinking about throwing the ultimate Graduation Party.

Since this celebration may be the first one people are attending in well over a year, you may feel added pressure to make it perfect!  With decades in the event planning business, Stuart Event Rentals has learned some tips and tricks for what it takes to throw a stress-free, memorable event.

 

Here are some tips and tricks to throw an amazing grad party your guests (and Grad) will love!

 

 

Graduation Photo Station

Let’s face it, if there aren’t photos of your event on social media, did it even happen? Making a social media-ready photo station is a great way to guarantee your guest will share the fun and excitement of the party. Wood Walls, Faux Hedges, Pipe and Drape, and balloon arches are some ways to make the perfect backdrop. Personalize it with school colors and graduation props!

 

Memorable Drink Stations

Having one bar for a multitude of guests can be problematic. Try setting up several, unique beverage stations all around your party. Each one can cater to a different beverage theme, such as Mimosa Station, Soda Station, Specialty Cocktail section, etc.  Stuart also has a variety of bars and back bars to choose from as well.

 

Outdoor Bistro Lighting

When the day turns into night, having Bistro lighting up in the yard gives just the right amount of light to keep the party going. The lighting looks classy and is much less harsh than that flood light you have in the backyard currently.

 

Special Dessert Station

Having a separate dessert station with a variety of treats for your guests will elevate your celebration. Having a variety of different sweets will help to please even the most decerning sweet tooth. You can use a specialty table or a bar for maximum effect.

 

What are some of your go-to party tips and tricks for a flawless event? Let us know in the comments.  Also, make sure to follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn for more party tips and tricks!

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING COVID-19

The Stuart Rental Company’s highest priority is the health and safety of our team members, clients, and their families. Therefore, we are taking this opportunity to set forth how we are managing our business operations during the COVID-19 pandemic.

We will continue to update our policies as we learn more from the medical and scientific community, including new information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. We encourage everyone to frequently refer to the CDC website for the latest on how best to contain and mitigate the impact of the virus.

OUR SHOWROOM IS OPEN

LIMITED HOURS: 10:00AM to 2:00PM, MON-FRI

CLEANING AND SANITATION

We have enhanced the process and increased the frequency of our equipment cleaning, spending extra attention to regularly contacted surfaces.

  • – We are using the same chemicals on our equipment as hospitals use to disinfect their surfaces.
  • – In addition, we continue to launder all linens and disinfect dishware, silverware, and glassware with high-temp commercial dishwashers, industrial sanitizers and chemicals.
  • – These processes are done in compliance with the latest California state and federal CDC guidance to ensure our products are COVID-19-free following their cleaning.
  • – We are cleaning our showroom, offices, warehouse and common areas with greater frequency using hospital-grade disinfectants, paying special attention to frequently touched surfaces.
  • – We have curtailed all non-essential employee travel to minimize the risk of spreading the virus to our staff and among the general population and we have instructed employees who feel ill to stay home and consult their healthcare provider.

 

DELIVERY AND PICKUP PROTOCOL: 10:00AM to 2:00PM, MON-FRI

We are keeping our teams current on all recommendations and updates from the CDC as well as instituting new safety precautions for the pickup and delivery of any product.

  • – We have equipped our delivery and pickup teams with masks, nitrile gloves, hand sanitizer, and EPA-approved cleaners/disinfectants specifically recommended by the CDC in its Environmental Cleaning and Disinfection Recommendations.
  • – During pickups and deliveries, we wipe all products with all-purpose cleaning solution and a disinfecting cleanser.
  • – Nitrile gloves are carefully disposed of after every pickup.
  • – We have instructed our staff to follow CDC-recommended social distancing guidelines, including avoiding shaking hands and using proper hygiene etiquette including hand washing.

We are committed to doing what is necessary to curtail the impact of COVID 19 and will therefore update these policies as the CDC and local and state health officials issue more guidance.
