An Invitation That Announces the Graduate and the Party
A graduation is a big day, and the party afterwards is a chance to thank everyone who helped. This announcement and invitation combines both jobs. A black graduation cap, a rolled diploma, gold and red balloons and stars surround a clear message in script and bold capitals, with the honoree, the date, the time and the place below. It suits family parties, class gatherings and club celebrations.
Cap, Diploma, Stars and a Red Frame
The page is 8.5 x 11 inches, portrait, one page. A red frame runs around the top, the right and the left of the page, broken by gold balloons and stars. Ornate gold corner flourishes sit at the upper left and lower right. The cap and diploma sit in the middle. The fonts are Cookie, Aclonica and Carlito.
Honoree, Time and Place
Join Us For is in red script above GRADUATION in black and Party in red script. In Honor of leads to First, Last Name. A two column block lists SATURDAY, December 11, At 6:00 PM and In the Evening at the left, and a street address, Lorem Ipsum Hall and City, Zip Code at the right. The words At 6:00 PM and In the Evening say the same thing twice, so change the second line to something useful, such as Dinner and dancing. A line of placeholder text and a phone and email close the page.
Details Guests Need on a Graduation Invitation
- Name of the graduate and the degree or school.
- Date, start time and end time.
- Venue address with a note on parking.
- RSVP date and how to reply.
- Dress code or theme, if any.
Setting an RSVP Date
Ask guests to reply a week before the party so that you can confirm numbers with the venue and the caterer. Put a phone number or an email on the page. A reply date makes it easier for guests to remember.
Customising the Colours
Red and gold are classic graduation colours, but you can match the school colours by changing the text colours. The cap, diploma and stars are pictures and stay as designed, so choose text colours that harmonise with them.
