High School Reunion Ideas

Feel like everyone else is getting older but you are staying the same? We all are on the age train and as time goes back, our class reunion gets closer. High School Reunion Ideas including class reunion décor, high school reunion theme ideas and even class reunion memorial ideas for those that have gone before. Happy planning!

High School Reunion Ideas

High School Reunion Ideas, Decor, and Themes

Reunited and it feels so good…

I dare you to try to not sing that when talking about a high school reunion! Impossible. The song was always in the subconscious of my mind as I was planning this post. Whether celebrating your 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 or even 60th high school reunion, we have some of the best class reunion ideas to create a memorable night or weekend. High school reunion decorations, theme ideas, planning ideas, and even memorial ideas to remember those that have passed before.

We both are so excited ’cause we’re reunited, hey, hey!

What to do at a High School Reunion?

First, if you are wondering what to do at a high school reunion, it’s really nice to have ice breakers. You can use these Minute to Win it Games with directions and supply list or these Family Reunion games go well – because you know, we are like family!

More Class Reunion Games to Consider:

  • Adult Party Games (includes drinking and non-drinking games for adults)
  • Wine Party Drinking Games
  • Beer Party Drinking Games
  • Drinking Party Games
  • Graduation Party Games
  • Graduation Minute to Win it Games

Class Reunion Decorations

The reunion décor is everything. It is what brings the vent together, brings the initial visual excitement and bridges the gap of past to he present.

First, name sure you have a name tag for everyone. This High School Reunion Name Tag Template uses photos from the past so you can connect the look for X number of years ago to today! Comes in 10 to 60 years. These are great because the school photos allow you recognize the faces of your old friends – because some people never change… and honestly some people (just) do! Use the same faces for a slideshow.

Save money on décor by shopping at The Dollar Tree. The Magic of Ordinary Things purchased green floral foam and the shredded paper at the Dollar Tree. She got the IKEA pails for $0.79 each. (We found similar metal pails on Amazon.) All in all, for 20 custom centerpieces, she spent less than $40… less than $2 a piece! Customize with your own school colors.

Have a back in time display. For example, if your graduation year is 2000, have a back in 2000 and list the following…

  • Popular Songs
  • TV Shows
  • Films That Were Released
  • What Things Cost
  • Events in History
  • Winning Sports  Teams
  • Celebrities Who Were Born

You get also get a Back in the Year Digital Copy Flash Back here and turn it into a poster at a copy store like Staples.

Every high school reunion needs a photo booth!  This is a very easy photo booth and prop to share class reunion photos to social media. Just add a hashtag with the graduation year. | Idea Source Cindy at Flickr

This Dry Erase Photo Frame can be personalized to your event.

Also look at these High School Class Reunion Photo Booth Props. Hire an event photographer who can add all the photos digitally to a folder for everyone to share. Chances are you might have a graduate or a spouse of the graduate the do this. In fact, the better the photographer knows the reunion guests, the better the photos are likely to come out.


Play a game – Guess the name of these celebrity year book photos… then again, if you are crafty you could probably make your own poster and play this class reunion game with your old classmates (careful for hurt feelings!)


Balloons can be really affordable, the expense comes when you outsource the task. Grab your craftiest graduates and have them follow this easy Balloon Wall tutorial with your class colors.  This tried and true image comes from a Pinterest user and took about 2.5/3 hrs and 250 balloons.

This black, white and gold balloon garland has high ratings too. In includes Balloons garland strip to guide you on your balloon craft. I highly recommend getting 3M Command Brand hooks to hang your balloon garland.


High School Reunion Themes

It’s really easy to take your class reunion décor a certain direction if you have a reunion theme.

Make your high school reunion the theme for the decade you graduated or of your birthday. Great class reunion themes include an eighties party, nineties party or 21st century. Incorporate some of our Glow Theme Party Ideas or any of these fun Adult Drinking Games.

Your reunion might host many events on the schedule. How about incorporating an Adult Theme Prom for the evening. This is perfect those that wish to stay Forever Young! You could incorporate fun ideas like Prom Proposals. They could make a cute contest or fun photo props. | Source

Make your reunion, Holiday Theme. One of the best times of year to have a reunion is, ironically, not the end of the school year or over summer but rather over the holidays. People return home for the holidays to visit their parents and family. Incorporate some of these fun New Years Even Minute to Win it Games into your event. This keeps a cute new year theme if you are having a holiday class reunion.

If the idea of dressing up in theme is really annoying to your guests, have a theme that doesn’t require theme to purchase a themed outfit. A Casino Night allows people to dress up or down and gives people the perfect excuse to wear jeans or wear a tux like the 007 they think they are – wink. Casino Party Décor from Oriental Trading Company.

High School Reunion Planning

The planning is the hardest part! Some of these people you don’t remember, others cannot be motivated to help, because of their busy schedule (who isn’t busy?) Suggestions for class reunion planning might help you get others involved.

No one is going to hand write 1,000 invitations. Plus, do you have everyone’s email address? The best way to hand a class reunion is to create a high school reunion Facebook group. Once you do that, create a digital class reunion invitation.

  • Black and Gold Digital High School Reunion Invite
  • Banner Digital High School Reunion Invitation (personalize your colors)
  • Mascot High School Reunion Digital Invite

A Facebook group. This is where you get others involved. Began the group at least a a year in advance and map out your requests. Have a specific date (months in advance) you ask for people to drop photos. Another date ask for classmates to share a memory. Another date, have people tag a friend. The more engagement you get in the group, the more likely it is to come forward to people’s Facebook news feeds.

Plan a Class Reunion Checklist

Have no idea where to start? This class reunion checklist is great for the high school reunion planning committee. Download it, save it, check it as you go.

Eventbrite has a free class reunion software for your class reunion. Easily create a reunion website, manage registrations, and collect fees. In a survey, look at these results for reunion preferences voted on 2500 high school reunion attendees.

  • 94% like a reunion that serves alcohol, 6% prefer booze-free
  • 92% like to go big after the sun goes down, 9% prefer a day-time reunion
  • 89% like to see throwback videos and photos, 11% prefer not to see photos from the past
  • 84% prefer to keep it adults only, 16% want to make it kid-friendly
  • 83% want a casual reunion, 17% want a formal reunion
  • 75% want to open it up to former teachers, 22% want classmates only
  • 73% like to keep it toast-free, 27% want to hear speeches
  • 67% hope there’s a dance floor, 33% prefer the reunion to be dance free

Don’t forget to assign superlatives. These don’t have to be the same titles you gave in your high school yearbook. Biggest jock is no-longer cool. Try things like furthest traveled, most kids, married the longest, with their high school sweetheart, etc. You can even buy High School Reunion Trophies.

High School Reunion Awards

Possible class reunion superlatives include…

  • Farthest Traveled
  • Lives the Closest to the School (least distance traveled)
  • Married the Longest
  • Married High School Sweetheart (winner is the longest)
  • Most Eligible Bachelor
  • Most Eligible Bachelorette
  • Most Kids
  • Most Recent Baby
  • Parent the Longest (oldest child)
  • First Grandparents
  • Most Accomplished or Most or Highest Degrees
  • Never Left the School (became a teacher at the school!)
  • Most Interesting Job
  • Still the Same
  • Most Changed
  • Most Social Media Followers
  • Most Famous
  • First to Retire
  • Deserves the Most Honor (military members)
  • Hero Award
  • Beat the Odds (overcame the most obstacles)

Some of these reunion awards might not be clear. You can vote on on some of these at the start of the special event and award them later in the evening.

If that is too much work, these School Class Reunion Party Mug Shots work too! Hire an event photographer and if they use a digital camera, those images can be quickly added to a slide show running in the background.


Class Reunion Memorial Ideas

As you get further away from your graduation date, those that have passed will go up. Have a Class Reunion Memorial for those gone but not forgotten. This can be done wither with a banner, bow or tree of life remembered.

Using an old yearbook, copy photos of those that have died. Increase the size before copying. Cut out the photos and attach them to a memorial ribbon.  You can play this bow on a chair called the Empty Chair. | Source

The Empty Chair Poem for a Class Reunion

The Empty Chair

We gather here a class once more,

To reminiscence like years before.

Upon the days and joys we knew,

Before our school-aged time was through.

Yet before we meet with memories near,

We think of those always held dear.

Our friends and classmates passed away,

To be with God and enjoy their day.

Until that hour when we join again,

An empty chair we will maintain.

In honor of the life-long bond,

We forged with those now passed beyond.

The friends with whom we learned life’s truth,

Whose bonds lasted far from our youth.

And shall remain forever near,

When we gather from year to year.

Another idea is to have memorial tree of life. Using an old yearbook, copy photos of those that have died. Increase the size before copying. Cut out the photos and hang them from a tree branch to mimic a tree. | Source

Lastly, you can pick up these Memorial Luminaries of Deceased Classmates using old yearbook photos. Get flameless candles and add them inside white bags. Such a beautiful way to remember old friends – lost but not forgotten.

Shhh, don’t blow it (pun intended!) Gift the person who has everything a party. These Surprise Birthday Party Hacks and Ideas will help you pull of the biggest secretly planned party that the guest of honor and party guests will love.

 Surprise Birthday Party Hacks and Ideas

Does anyone else like giving surprises more than receiving them. Perhaps its the little bit of “control freak” in me. I really like to know what is going on but really like to surprise people with gifts, events, outings, etc.

What is a Surprise Birthday Party?

A secretly planned party for someone who is not told about it until he or she arrives. Typically when the guess of honor arrives, the crowd yells, Surprise!

Surprise parties are especially great for the person who has it all! The best gift you could give them is to gather all their friends and family together in one room. Everyone is there for them!

Planning a surprise party can be a little bit intimidating.  The key word is planning. If you are not a planner, step aside and fine someone who is.

First, you have to do everything you can to make sure the guest of honor does not find out. That can be a challenge, especially with technology today! It’s important to plan ahead. I suggest talking to all guests instead of sending out a mass invite. If you are talking to your guests, you can remind them how important it is that the party is kept a secret.

The day of the party, make sure you line up a chauffeur. Have someone drive them so they can’t bail on the location all together. Can you imagine if they texted you replying “they were too tired to go out tonight!” that would be a disaster.  When I had my sweet 16th surprise birthday, I tried to change the restaurant at the last minute. Luckily, my mom (my driver) would not let me change restaurant locations. You could also have the party at home. Everybody makes it home each day, no?

Before the guest of honor arrives, make sure you have parking under control. They will likely recognize cars so use side streets or additional parking lost. You could even bus people back and forth to the party.

Have a way to say “Surprise!”  Have huge balloon drop, noise makers, or even face masks with a photo of the guest of honor! Enjoy these Surprise Birthday Party Ideas and hacks. Let us know how it goes!

We love celebrations! Also take a look at our Retirement Party Ideas, Family Birthday Celebrations, and Half Birthday Party Ideas – for those 6 months to 100 years old!


Surprise Birthday Party Hacks and Ideas

Party Perfect Orlando has a beautiful display of memories over the years displayed in a photo luminary tablescape. Follow this tutorial on how to make photo luminaries using Vellum Paper.

Party Games

Having something to do at the party is important. You can invest lots of money into entertainment or quickly pull them together on a budget. These low-cost games are perfect for kids, teens or even adults. They use common supplies around the home or ones you can easily access at a craft store, Target/Walmart or even The Dollar Tree.

Surprise Party Ideas

Go incognito with a mask. The birthday boy or birthday girl will have no idea why 100 clones of him / her on the the room! These are so fun and we truly thing worth the investment! | This shop owner is taking a break, you can find more face masks on a stick here.

For an outdoor party, get festive with a Happy Birthday song. Light sparklers to set the mood! This would make the perfect opportunity for some of the best surprise party photos!

Party Food

Of course your #1 surprise birthday party food idea will need to be anything the birthday person loves! They are other cute ideas to fit the surprise party theme.

Choose your number, but have blow pops and suckers on your table. You even have Hershey kisses for years that kiss a**. This plays with the number of your themed birthday party. | DIY Inspired

Personalize your menu. Include a few of his (her) favorite things in the party foods. Of course this requires planning. Since it’s a surprise party, the hosts really need to know the person of honor. | Source Unknown

Guest Book

Don’t let these memories go down the drain – must like those years of your life must have… considering how many candles we see on that surprise birthday party cake. All humor aside, look at these surprise party ideas for a guest book.

Build a memory with a Jenga Game guest book. It comes a game later and who wouldn’t love to re-read through these memories (again and again) during a family game night?  | Source Unknown

Set up a chalk board with instructions for guests and ask everyone to stick a photo into a guest book and leave a message for the birthday boy / girl. You will need an instant Polaroid-type camera.

Layout envelopes in the shape of a number representing their year of life. The envelopes can comprise of several words of love and affection from you, family, and friends. You can make this before the party and as guests arrive they can add a index card or small letter inside the envelope. Easy and low-cost party decorations and a really cute gift or message for the special birthday person. | Source Unknown

Speaking of Surprise birthday cakes, make a cake of candles. Simple and fun! Have a fire extinguisher near by with all those candles!

Toss his face on a a stick with these photo cupcake toppers! These make me laugh so much… you too?

Have your guests hide in a room and remain quite, while the birthday boy / girl goes on a scavenger hunt to finally find them! Use our printable Birthday Scavenger Hunt. | Source Unknown

Beer & Wine Tasting

Does your birthday guy or gal have a special drink or love cocktails? If you have something brewing for the adults, change the party location. You can bring the winery or brewery to your house. Try a wine tasting party or even a beer Oktoberfest party.
