Mackenzie's High School Graduation Party

My LITTLE sister graduated high school in May.  Yep, I officially feel old.  I helped my mom out a lot with the theme of the party - Casino Night!  If you know me, you know this is right up my alley and why I volunteered to help so much, lol.  I took tons of pictures of the details so there is quite a few.  The kids had a great time, and I must admit, I made a pretty awesome Roulette dealer and was the favorite table to be at ;)

 
 This is Kenzie as she walked across the stage.  Lighting was bad :( .  When they said her name I yelled "woooo! Prettiest girl in the school!"

For her graduation gift, I bought her a pair of heart shaped Tiffany stud earrings.  And made a matching card, too :)  I'm pretty sure she loves them since I've seen her wearing them several times since!



These are some of the things I made at home for the party.  Her high school colors are Red & Black, so the card deck theme really worked!



My mom bought the roulette wheel and the table felt online - it was such a big hit!




We played Fish Bowl - they got to throw ping pong balls into the cups to either win a fish, or a gift card - or both!


The black jack table - dealt by Jim


The five card stud table - dealt by Adam & Mom



 

Each person guessed who these old HS Celebs were!



The entry table where they got their welcome card, chips, and scratch off ticket!


The photo booth we made complete with signs and props!



The sign in table where everyone signed Mackenzie's yearbook and also jotted down a high school memory for Mackenzie to keep.


The flowers I bought her!


The punch & junk food bar









Cupcakes and chocolate fountain - so fun!









Superlatives that everyone voted on - each came with the matching candy


























The End!
