We recently celebrated our 30 year class reunion. We decided to have it in an outdoor pavilion, casual dress with a cookout style catered dinner. We really enjoyed the atmosphere. It was totally laid back and comfortable and the “Back Yard” style dinner instead of being uncomfortable in suits, dresses, and paying for a $50.00 a plate dinner. We usually have our reunion every five years. At this our 30 year reunion class-mates started talking about a 50 year class birthday party. What a blast that would be! Everyone loved the thought of staying with the laid back atmosphere. During our reunion we had already narrowed our birthday theme down to a Luau or a 50’s Sock Hop. We have actually planned for both ideas. As far as party supplies and decorations go. The committee that was quickly formed will soon be taking a class vote.

For the Luau themed party some party decoration ideas were:

  • Tiki torches – in ground and table top styles
  • paper lanterns and small decorative string lights
  • faux palm trees
  • Luau party music
  • Luau – Caribbean costumes and leis
  • Tropical design place settings
  • Thinking of having a limbo contest

For the 50’s Sock Hop themed party some party ideas were:

  • Neon food signs
  • 50’s music for the stroll
  • Class mates could show in poodle skirts and leather jackets

Right now the food is undecided, but we were tossing around the idea of baked hams and pineapples with everyone bringing a side dish. Of course drinks will be provided. We found this type of party to be inexpensive, and can keep the cost down to around $10.00 per person. We believe around 200 class mates will join in on the Class 50th birthday celebration, so at $10.00 per person the hall (pavilion), DJ, decorations, and drinks will be covered! As I said it’s all in the works. If you have any ideas for me let me know by leaving a comment.
