6 Party Favor Ideas for a Law School Graduation Party

The verdict is in... guests are sure to want an awesome favor at your law school graduation party! Make sure you're not "guilty" of forgetting to send home a favor by making sure to choose one of Party411's graduation law school custom invitations and favors. For my friend Michael's law school graduation, I picked this graduation law school theme candy bar wrapper in his school colors (choose from blue, green or red). The candy bars looked great lined up on my party table with other coordinating law school theme decorations.

If you're looking for easy themed party favors, look no further! Here are five more law school themed graduation favor ideas that you can pull together in no time:

1. These graduation cap peanut butter cups are a snap to make! Put them in a clear glass bowl or vase for guests to grab as they walk by. They would make a great themed addition to a fill-a-bag candy bar, too!  
2. I bought a box of bubblegum cigars and arranged them in a vintage cigar box. This sweet twist on a classic celebratory tradition (cigar, anyone?) is perfect for a law school theme. While the grad may be heading off to a career that's serious, his grad party sure doesn't need to be! Make sure to add a fun sign that says, "A Sweet Ending to a New Beginning!"
   
   
3. Water decorated with a graduation law school water bottle label is a favor that serves a double purpose!  Choose from red, green or blue labels and personalize with your own wording to fit your graduate.
   
   
4. Set up a candy bar and let guests fill a graduation law school theme favor bag with all sorts of delicious treats! Make sure to choose candy in the grad's school colors. You can usually buy candy in bulk and by color online or at a local by-the-pound candy store.  Try a few of these favorites: rock candy, bubblegum balls, M&Ms, gummies, lollipops, Hershey's kisses, and peanut butter cups.
5. Buy the grad's favorite candy bars and add a tag with a little themed wordplay. These jokes are so bad, your guests will want to sue! (No pun intended!)

• Graduation is a big PAYDAY!
• Are our eyes playing TWIX? Kayla has graduated law school!
• Jason't not an AIRHEAD - he's graduating!
• Congratulations on receiving your WHATCHMACALLIT!

Graduation Cap Chocolate Favors for a Law School Graduation Party

These tasty peanut butter cup graduation cap favors were an easy themed treat to make for my friend Michael's law school graduation party! I wanted to add a few personalized touches to go with all of the matching Graduation Law School Custom Invitations and Favors that I used to decorate his party table. In the end, this simple favor was one of my guests' favorite Law School Graduation Party Ideas. 

For each grad cap, you need:

• one mini peanut butter cup
• a 1 1/2" square of cardstock (in the grad's school colors, of course!)
• a 1" piece of ribbon
• a little black circle (use a hole punch on cardstock)

Use hot glue to attach the square to the top of the peanut butter cup, then use school glue to attach the ribbon and circle to the center of the square.  Give it time to dry, and you're done!  Now repeat 20-30 times!

What's great about this no-sweat party favor is that it works for all types of graduation parties! Just choose a color to match your theme, and you have a fun favor for a high school, college, or even kindergarten graduation party. Need more easy invitation, decoration, and favor ideas?

Decoration Ideas for a Law School Graduation Party

Coming up with Law School Graduation Party Ideas for my friend's recent celebration was easy with Party411! I picked the grad's school colors as my theme and personalized the event with a variety of matching Graduation Law School Custom Invitations and Favors (I got to choose from blue, green and red!). The verdict was in - the graduation party was a success! And after finally lifting his nose from his law school books after three long years, my friend Michael definitely deserved a party to remember!

I started decorating my party table by hanging a paper streamer background and a personalized graduation law school theme banner. The banner drew attention to the party table, and I also hung a banner at the party entrance and set-up a graduate life-sized cutout to greet guests as they arrived. It was a perfect opportunity for a photo with the "grad"!

I loved the giant "ESQ" centerpiece I made for the party table!  I just painted cardboard letters I found at my local craft store and added a handmade blue graduation cap. FYI, "Esq" stands for esquire, the honorary title a lawyer receives once they have passed the bar exam and become a licensed attorney. 

Of course, now that Michael had graduated law school, he needed to "pass the bar" quite literally! I made sure to have some of his favorite micro-brews on hand decorated with custom beer bottle labels. Add a sign that plays off the dreaded post-graduation test, like "You are about to pass the bar!" or "If it takes 3 years to get there, it better be one hell of a bar!"

Besides the bar, I had water wrapped in graduation law school water bottle labels, so family and friends could quench their thirst! I placed them all over my party space, and they made great favors for people to grab and take home with them, too.

Make sure your guests have a place to leave well wishes and advice to the guest of honor! I displayed a graduation law school sign in board on the party table and left a permanent marker for family and friends to leave notes.You could even set one up on an easel with a balloon bouquet at the entrance. At the end of the party, Michael took the board home as a memento!  

Graduation confetti personalized with the grad's picture and peanut butter cup graduation cap candies were some of my favorite personalized touches. I couldn't go wrong when choosing party favors and decorations in the grad's school colors!

I obviously couldn't send home my guests without a sweet favor, like a chocolate bar decorated with a graduation law school theme candy bar wrapper! It was fun to personalize them with the grad's photo.

In the end, I loved how Michael's law school graduation party table turned out. It was so much fun to celebrate his achievement after three long years. Congratulations from everyone here at Party411!  Want to see more ideas for your graduation celebration? Check them out here:

Dessert Ideas for a Law School Graduation Party: Gavel Cake Pops

For my first attempt at making cake pops, I have to say I'm pretty proud of the gavel shaped cake pops I made for a friend's recent subpoena themed law school graduation party.  This fun dessert coordinated perfectly with all of my other graduation law school subpoena party supplies and was the highlight of my party table.  Most of the effort went into decorating the pops - check out how I made it work!

I used this simple cake pop recipe from Bakerella to get started.  After I mixed the ingredients and cooled the batter, I molded each pop into the shape of a rough gavel and stuck a cake pop stick into each one. I stuck them into a piece of foam I painted red and refrigerated them again before decorating. Meanwhile, I melted chocolate in the microwave (add a teaspoon of veggie oil and melt for 30 seconds at a time), and then dipped each gavel in the chocolate.  

I refrigerated the pops one more time before decorating each one with some gold details.  I just used a small paintbrush and some of this food grade decorating dust - I found it at my local cake supply store. Don't you love how they turned out!  Along with my gavel pops, I came up with a few more dessert ideas that family and friends loved!

5 More Dessert Ideas for a Law School Graduation Party:

1. Personalized Graduation Law School Subpoena Theme Candy Bar wrappers turn your favorite dessert into an instant favor! I displayed these tasty treats on a tray on my law school theme party table.  They were a huge hit with the grad as well as my guests! 
2. The grad won't "object" to a fun cake decorated to look like law school books!  Use a box mix to make a 9x13 cake and decorate with brown frosting. Pipe royal icing for the "book's" title, like "Constitutional Law" or "Trust and Estates".  
3. For a fun display idea, decorate cupcakes in the grad's school colors and balance them on "scales of justice".  See if you can dig up a set of scales at an antique or thrift store - it will quickly become the centerpiece of your themed dessert table!
4. I also made these easy mini peanut butter cup graduation cap snacks for guests to grab!  All I did was glue a 1.5" x 1.5" paper square and ribbon to the top of each cup. I chose red to match the "subpoena" theme, but they would also look great in the grad's school colors.
5. Fill a cello bag with your favorite homemade cookies - chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, or macadamia nut! Attach a note like this one, "Aaron is one smart cookie! He graduated from Duke Law School!"

Go with one or more of these dessert ideas and your graduation party is sure to be a hit!  Check out more of my law school party ideas for decorating, menu and invitation inspiration:

Party Table Ideas for a Law School Graduation

The verdict is in! You've been approved to party at a law school graduation bash! Break away from the traditional law school grad party, and choose a theme that is much more fun.  These bright red graduation law school subpoena party supplies will make your party pop - and your guests will be sure to appear after receiving a summons in the form of a subpoena invitation! Make sure there is a colorful party table greeting guests at the entrance when they arrive. Take a look at the one I created for a recent grad! 


With a red paper streamer backdrop and a brown craft paper table runner, this law school graduation party table had a great base to add all sorts of fun party favors, like water bottles, candy bar favors, and even gavel shaped cake pops!


The highlight of the table was most definitely the "ESQ" centerpiece (which stands for esquire, a lawyer's honorary title). As they walked in, family and friends couldn't help but notice the table with these bold black letters! All I did was paint large cardboard letters black and add a fun graduation cap in the theme's signature red color.  


Of course, it was easy to add personalized touches with custom graduation law school subpoena water bottle labels.  They matched the invites and the party's red and manila color scheme - all I had to do was set the bottles out on the table for guests to grab as they arrived! 


Coordinating graduation law school subpoena theme candy bars were a no brainer, too. The verdict is in on these delicious party favors - family and friends loved them!


As my first attempt at cake pops, I'm pretty pleased with how these chocolate gavel-shaped pops turned out! They were a sweet themed twist on a favorite treat that guests definitely enjoyed. (They were delicious!)


After years of intense study and grueling course work, the grad is finally about to "pass the bar"!  A bar stocked with everyone's favorite brewskies, that is!  Give your beer bottles a graduation law school subpoena beer bottle label - guests won't mind being handed one of these summons.


Always make sure your guests head home with a sweet treat after your grad bash.  These easy chocolate grad caps matched the theme and were easy to make.  Want to take a look at some of my other subpoena theme party ideas?

10 Dessert Ideas for a Nursing School Graduation Party

I came up with so many nursing school graduation party ideas for my friend Tamara's grad party! She wanted to have several different desserts, so I made sure to make a few that tied in with the nursing theme. In fact, I ended up creating this fun marshmallow cake - I used raspberry filling for "blood" and decorated with nursing theme paper topper and some kid's doctor kit toys. This cake became an eye-popping centerpiece for my nursing theme party table, and it was so easy to make!  

I came up with ten more dessert ideas for a nursing school graduation party.  A few of them are sure to cure your sweet tooth!

1. Jello Shot Syringes: Fill these party shooter syringe shots with raspberry jello - guests will love this nursing theme twist on a party classic!  Use this recipe to get started.
2. White Chocolate Thermometers: I also made these fun white chocolate covered pretzel sticks, or "thermometers", for my party table.  Decorating with homemade royal icing to make the pretzel look like a thermometer was simple!  Wrap them in cellophane and tie with a ribbon, and you have a sweet favor for family and friends to take home.
3. Personalized Cookies: The grad "calls the shots" with a Graduation Nursing School Theme Custom Cookie! Cookies make fun favors at each place setting or displayed on the dessert table.  Plus, they match all of our nursing school graduation party invitation and favors.
4. Nursing Theme Candy Bar: Set up a candy bar where guests can grab nursing themed treats and sweets!  Marshmallows are "cotton balls", skittles are "happy pills", lemon heads are "urine samples" - you get the idea!  Have graduation nursing school theme favor bags handy so guests have a place to put their goodies.
5. Hospital Food: Serve individually packaged servings of Jello, ice cream, and pudding. They're everyone's favorite foods when staying at the hospital!
6. Scrubs Cake: Take a sheet cake and cut off the top three inches, using them to make scrubs "sleeves" on the leftover rectangle of cake.  Frost with green or pink icing to make a scrubs cake!
7. Red Cross Cupcakes: For a no-hassle dessert, frost cupcakes with white icing (or buy pre-made ones at the store to keep it simple!). Give the cupcakes a nursing themed twist by using red licorice to make a red cross topper.
8. Body Part Suckers: Use these body party molds to make chocolate suckers!  Try the brain, heart, stomach, or bone molds - fun!
9. Tylenol Cookies: Use a cookie cutter to make oval shaped sugar cookies, and decorate half the cookie with white royal icing and the other half with red to make Tylenol cookies!  
10. Personalized Lollipops: The grad can leave a special message to family and friends on this sweet graduation nursing school lollipop.  

Whatever you decide to make for your nursing graduation party, make sure to choose something sugary to cure everyone's sweet tooth! Check out more ideas from this nursing theme party below:

Nursing School Graduation Party Favor Ideas

I wanted to make sure to celebrate my friend Tamara's graduation from nursing school, and now that she "calls the shots", it was time to come up with some amazing nursing school graduation party ideas!  I decorated a green and pink party table, and decided to hand out chocolate bars packaged in these graduation nursing school candy bar wrappers.  They were such a fun and personalized touch to the party - I chose a custom message for Tamara, her family, and all of her friends!

Along with chocolate, each person received a "Happy Pills" favor.  I scored these glass prescription bottles from my mom (who's a nurse) and filled them with Skittles.  An easy label completed the look, and these Happy Pills matched my nursing theme perfectly! I also set up a nursing themed candy bar where guests could grab their favorite treats. Clear jars filled to the top with delicious candies made the candy bar table look amazing! Make sure to include a few of these themed goodies - each with its own little sign, of course:

• Clogged Arteries: Red licorice, Twizzlers, or Red Vines
• Antibiotics: Mike N Ikes
• Urine Samples: Lemon Heads, gold wrapped Rolos or mini Reese's Cups (any yellow candy will do!)
• Kidney Stones: Malt Balls or Milk Duds
• Cotton Swabs: Marshmallows
• Kisses for Your Boo Boo: Hershey's Kisses
• Gauze: Cotton Candy
• Red Blood Cells: Red Hots or Red Gummies
• White Blood Cells: Life Saver Mints
• From the Doctor: Safety Suckers, DumDums, or Blow Pops (because everyone wants a sucker when they go to the doctors!)
• An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away: Caramel Apple Pops
• Thermometers: Pixie Sticks

Don't forget to pass out graduation nursing school theme favor bags, so your guests can easily pack up all of their goodies!  I love how these favor bags were personalized to match the chocolate bar favors, too.

Setting up a small favor table near your party's entrance/exit is another great way to display favors.  If a candy bar isn't your style, try one of these nursing graduation themed favors:

1. Graduation Nursing School Lollipop: Leave a personalized message on these graduation nursing school lollipops to families and friends!
2. Germ Juice: Slap a "Germ Juice" label or a small tag on mini bottles of hand sanitizer.
3. First Aid Kits: Mini first aid kits that can easily slip into a purse or glove box are practical and thoughtful favors.
4. Latex Glove Favors: Fill a latex glove with an assortment of candies, and ties at the top with ribbon and a note from the grad.
5. Doctor Kit Sets: For the kiddos at your party, pass out doctor kit sets you can find for cheap at the dollar store.

Whatever you choose, the guest of honor will never forget this once in a lifetime party.  Make it special with a favor they'll remember forever! Once you've decided on favors, check out more of my nursing graduation party ideas below:

Drink Ideas for a Nursing Theme Graduation Party

Clinicals are finished, finals are passed, and the grad has finally walked across the stage and received their nursing diploma!  It's time to party! Make sure your nursing theme graduation party has all the right drinks to get started off right. For my friend Tamara, I made sure everyone was hydrated before we celebrated. I displayed these custom graduation nursing school theme water bottle labels on one of my party tables which guests could grab as the night went on.  I loved the personalized message I left for friends and family!  

Need a few more drink ideas? These are great for any rowdy crew of RNs:

• Party Shooter Syringe Shots - Jello shots are always a party favorite, so make sure to have them at your nursing them grad party! Fill these 1 oz oral syringes with a "bloody" vodka shot. 
• IV Fluid Drink Bags - Newly minted nurses will love shooting their favorite cocktails straight into their veins with these IV fluid bags!  Kidding aside, fill these fun IV bags with your favorite drinks, and use the easy dispenser to fill everyone's glass!
• Type A and B Blood - Fill jars with red party punch and label them "Type A" and "Type B" blood. Family and friends can help themselves!
• Urine Sample - Fill catheter bags with yellow sports drinks or clear soda (add yellow food coloring to make it appear "urine-ish").  Add a "Hydration Station" sign and some sterile urine sample cups for guests to grab a quick (and disturbing!) drink.
• Nursing Theme Cocktails - Serve everyone's favorite cocktails, but make these tried and true classics with a nursing theme twist! Liver Transplant (Long Island Iced Tea); Red Cross (Cranberry and Vodka); Hematoma (Bloody Mary).
• Nursing Theme Graduation Water Bottle Labels - Leave a sweet message to guests and give them a change to hydrate after a long day of partying!

Nursing School Graduation Invitation Ideas

For my friend Tamara's nursing graduation party, I chose this fun Graduation Nursing School Invitation to send to all of her family and friends.  The "scrubs" green invite matched the pink and green color scheme I chose. (The invitation also comes in blue and pink!) I also wanted to set the right tone for the party, so the invitation wording was very important to me.  I really liked a few of these different wording options for a nursing theme graduation:

Nurse's Orders:
Join us to celebrate
Tamara's graduation from nursing school!

She survived!
Tamara is a Registered Nurse -
Join us as we celebrate her graduation!

Cute enough to stop your heart...
And smart enough to restart it!
Tamara is graduating,
Join us and celebrate!

Tamara's ready to call the shots!
Join us to celebrate her graduation from 
Cleveland State University.
We're prescribing a celebration!

You've got a prescription to party!
Celebrate with Tamara as she receives her RN!

Once everyone received their invite, we were ready to "discharge" Tamara from nursing school! 

After I figured out the invite, it was easy to find all sorts of Nursing School Graduation Invitations and Party Favors to go with it.  I chose personalized water bottle and chocolate bar labels and custom favor bags for guests to fill up with treats.  It was really easy to coordinate my party decorations - everything matched!

Once I packed all the invites into envelopes, I tossed in a handful of personalized graduation confetti (with a picture of the grad, of course!). It was a sweet add-on, and I even ended up using some of this confetti on the party table, too.  If you're looking to make a big statement with your invitation, try a few more of these creative ideas:

• Roll up your invite and put it in a plastic prescription bottle. (You can order them in bulk online!)  Put a label on the bottle that says, "You've got a prescription to party!"
• Send along a mini first aid kit with your invitation - it's useful and matches the theme!
• Seal your invite in a biohazard bag (get them here). This'll definitely make your guests look twice!
• Toss in a sucker (like you would get at the doctor's office) and a few character bandaids - the grad will be handing out plenty of those once he or she starts the new job!
