8 Class Reunion Ideas You Must See

Planning a class reunion party has never been easier due to online networking sites such as Facebook and Myspace.

That being said, statistics show that between only 10 – 25% of a class will actually show up to a class reunion. This could be due to nervousness and anxiety.

If you follow these class reunion ideas, you will stand a better chance of having a high attendance record and you will also throw a party that your guests will always remember:

1. Throwing a class reunion party can create a lot of stress for anybody. So why not recruit a former class mate or two to share the responsibilities?

2. Remember that many of your former classmates will be travelling great distances to attend your event. They will have careers and families to factor in! Make sure you allow as much notice as possible, even up to a year and beyond!

3. You should, rather than send out invitations, create a website dedicated to your class reunion party. This way your former classmates will be able to see who else is attending and they will be able to look forward to it.

4. Put a form on your website so you can find out preliminary information such as:

a. Do you have a vegetarian preference? You need to plan the meals after all!

b. Accommodation needed? If enough of your guests will be requiring accommodation then you could negotiate a group discount at a nearby hotel!

c. Extra? Would your guests wish to order a dvd of the event and pens, photos etc.

d. Photos? Have an area where school photos can be uploaded.

e. Payment – Have a link to Paypal so that payment can be sent in advance.

5. Hire a photographer! You can have a photo taken of all your guests when they arrive. If they have sent in a school photo, then you can have both photos put in the dvd.

6. Play music from the year of your graduation! Very nostalgic!

7. Provide name tags for everyone to avoid the inevitable embarrassments!

8. The food you provide should be top notch. Remember this is an extremely special occasion that has been a long time in the making.

Planning and preparing for a class reunion party can be a very stressful experience!
