If you’re planning a graduation party, I’m willing to bet the party planning snuck up on you. I know for me the idea that there’s only two weeks left of school has left me spinning a bit. Our cozy little routine is about to be completely upended. My summer goal? Keep my girls off their phones. Probably easier said than done!

Anyway, I’ve sourced black and gold graduation party decoration ideas for you. These are mostly from places that it should be easy to order online and have your items arrive quickly. I’ve focused on black and gold, but it would be really cute to add in your graduate’s school colors.

Happy planning! (And if you have questions about throwing together your graduation party, let me know in the comments section.)
