Once upon a time, there were temper tantrums, tears and bribes when it came to homework and studying for exams. Today, you have a fully grown child who’s either getting ready for their first graduation exercises or celebrating one of many. Before you get ready to snap hundreds of commencement photos to print in your Chatbooks photo book, you’ll want to shout your kid’s accomplishments from the rooftop (they’re our accomplishments, too, right?) — which is the perfect opportunity to send out graduation announcements. But what’s the proper etiquette and wording for your grad announcements and invitations? Here are the best graduation announcement wording ideas...
And between decorating graduation caps and making plans for the summer, don't forget to snap pictures of your memories and print them in a photo book you'll be able to look at for years to come. If you want to make a Classic Photo Book dedicated to your graduation celebration—and leave room in your Monthbooks for other exciting photos—that's your call! No matter which photo book you print your memories in, your family will just be glad to have them in their hands.
P.S. If you want to add Bible verses to your announcements, these verses are great options.
There are certain details your graduation announcement should include, like the graduate’s name, school name, degree, class year, honors, location, the date and time. If you’re throwing a party, make sure you include details about the celebration, as well.
