You might also have a think about how you use flowers. If a family member is a keen gardener they may be able to give you flowers and plants in school colors. You can arraneg them beside the driveway, front door and throughout your home. You may even have enough flowers to create a pattern of the graduate’s name or class. Flowers will also make that superb table centrepiece you need.
Also have a think about what part guests can play. Let them use their creativity by producing their own mini graduate tributes, bringing memorablia involving the graduate and of course their favorite photos.
