Sabriya's 8th Grade Grad Party

Saturday, May 18, 2013


Sabriya wanted to have one last gathering with all of her friends from GCCS (many who have been together since preschool) before they begin the next chapter of their lives called "high school." Many of them are going to different high schools and will no longer be together as they have been for so many years now. So we put together an "Around the World" themed party so that her friends could experience some cultures without having to travel anywhere... Set up was pretty straight forward, we used some country flags and banners on and around the food tables based on the theme of that table. Then we just kept decorating with that country in mind using items from each country and placing them around the table settings. From this point I'll let the pictures tell how the remainder of the party unfolded...
