[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am having this same conversation with my DD right now. I said no.

First, it is going to be almost as expensive as a wedding reception.  (We belong to an expensive club)

Two, people come and go and you will have no idea when people will show up or how many.  It could be huge, unless you are going to be very very exclusive or it could be a total bust.

I am a little sad we can't have a party for her. Our home has no good parking and people would never go for a shuttle bus from the nearby park.  Last year I wen't to a friends party and she really encouraged ubers, but there were still more than a hundred cars in her neighborhood.

She is going to explore having a party with someone else. This is becoming very common. They are fun, you can splurge on things like a band, and helps with the issue of conflicting parties.

Good luck.[/quote]

Definitely look into a joint party with other families! We did this and it seemed like most of the other parties DS went to this past spring when he graduated were similar. You share the cost, share the logistics, and I think the whole thing ends up having a “more than merrier“feel. We also didn’t have a house or yards that would have worked for something like this, were grateful to co- plan with a family that did. It doesn’t have to be a fancy blowout - ours was kind of a late afternoon /early eve backyard picnic with food from a BBQ place, kids played lawn games etc, it was just really nice.[/quote]
