Even though COVID-19 postponed graduation and ceremonies around the world, it doesn’t mean that you can’t celebrate the big day at home with your friends and/or family! In this blog post, I’m sharing 7 easy ways to celebrate graduation at home in quarantine!

 

Send out the virtual graduation link to friends and family members

One of the easiest ways to celebrate graduation in quarantine is to send your friends and family the link to your virtual graduation! You may not be walking in person, but the dean and president of your college will still recognize you in front of your loved ones for your great achievement. I promise it may not seem like a lot, but your family will definitely appreciate it if they are far away.

 

Bring the restaurant home

You might not be able to head out to your favorite restaurant for dine-in, but you can definitely get take out to enjoy your favorite meal at home. Order for pick up or use a food delivery app like DoorDash (it’s my fav for food!) to have your meal delivered. Make in even more special by eating your dinner on a fancy dish and your favorite drink! Bonus points if you get a cake made for the occasion!

 

Host a Zoom Happy Hour Party

Naturally, humans are social creatures and we enjoy human connections, even if it’s only virtual right now. For an at home graduation celebration, set up and host a Zoom Happy Hour Party. It’s super simple to do and everyone can make their favorite drink (with or without alcohol) while jamming to some tunes or just chatting together.

 

Ask your family to send you a care package

Who doesn’t love a surprise gift from friends and family? Spice up your graduation month by asking the people in your life to create a surprise care package for you! It could be as simple as a candle and a card to help you relax or something more personal that speaks to you as a person.

 

Have a mini party with the people that you live with

Do you currently live at home with your family or in an apartment with a group of friends? Have an actual party with the people that you currently live with. Choose a color theme, buy (or DIY) a graduation cake, cupcakes, and a few other of favorite treats and have some fun! Spice it up some more by ordering some fun board games or outside games that the whole squad can enjoy. Celebrating your graduation doesn’t have to be a major event to have a good time and to make an amazing memory.

 

Support a local business and get a cake made

Honestly, there’s nothing better than a well-made cake or cupcakes. I’m a big sucker for sweets, especially for a celebration or an event. If you’re like me, then definitely support a local business in your area and have a cake made for your graduation. You can easily go all out and get a custom one made or just get a simple one that is tasty and delicious.

 

Plan a fun vacation

If you’re stumped on how you want to celebrate graduation in quarantine, take a few hours to plan a future vacation either with your loved ones, friends, or even solo. While you may not be able to fly right now, it’s a perfect time to plan for the future and even to go ahead and book things. A lot of hotels, cruise ships, and flights are being more lenient on their cancellation policies plus prices have decreased due to the pandemic. Trust me after 4 years of school, you definitely deserve a vacation!

 

If you’re graduating this year, how are you celebrating the big day?
