Graduation Favors - Based On Venue

• If you have a beautiful historic home add a picture of your home, with a thank you message on the back, to the favors bag.


• If you are having the party at a famous park then add a picture of the park, say a postcard, and a card with the historic details. For example in Stanley Park in Vancouver there is lots of information cards and photos available of this beautiful park


• Your party may be at the beach, in that case you can add a photo of the beach and perhaps a beautiful sunset taken from the beach.


• A theme park will have photos, cards and merchandise to use as graduation favors.


• Some buildings like The Empire State Building come with their own cards and merchandise.


• Some restaurant chains have their own merchandise including recipe books. A local restaurant may include their Chef’s cooking tips in a book you can give as a favour.


• If the venue is at a museum, sports stadium or theatre, for example, give tickets for an event, tickets for a tour of the venue and gifts from the gift shop.


• The theme of the venue may give great ideas. For example at Vancouver Aquarium the gift store has wonderful toy Beluga Whales which could be graduation favors totally in keeping with the venue.

Graduation Favors - Keep In Touch

Give your guests favors that will help you all keep in touch. It will take a little preparation beforehand but the rewards should come through as you stay in contact.
For each favor add in your contact details. You may well pre print a contact details card and attach it to each favor. The graduation favors this can work with are:

• Pen plus notepad. The pen can be engraved and the notepad could be personalised.


• Address book which you could give out at the start of the party. Guests can fill the address book during the party.


• Photo album with a picture of the graduate and the guest.


• Magnet made up as your contact details which they can put on their fridge, or things like coasters.


• Label a make up bag or toiletries bag with contact details for the graduate.


• Make fun certificates for everyone to take home. You can make up lots of fun wording and designs to suit your graduation party and guests. Again contact details can be on the certificate.


• Burn a CD with your favorite songs from the past year, or indeed songs from the past few years that are very meaningful to the class. Put a contact label on the CD.


• A calendar made up of photos of the graduate and their best friends with their contact details included. If the graduate is a great photographer the calendar could be made up of their best photos and just include their own contact details.

The trick here is to work out what favor your guest would keep and actually use for years to come.
