My youngest son Carson graduated college at Savannah College of Art and Desgin a quarter early – March of 2020 so I had to come up with some of the Best Graduation Party Ideas during the pandemic.
Although the ceremony was postponed until 2021, we had to celebrate and invited his closest friends for an outdoor socially distanced celebration – I had to get creative on this one!
I did have to set up a cute candy buffet for the immediate family on the day of his virtual graduation though!
