Planning A School Party

If you're trying to arrange a high school reunion, you need to coordinate a number of difficult logistics. First of all, you need to set both your budget and your guest list. This can be tricky, particularly if your classmates haven't paid their dues or if they're scattered around the country. One way around this problem is to make your reunion a pay at the door event and insist that classmates RSVP by an early date.

The key to a successful reunion is to plan well and to make the experience manageable. Remember that the reason why classmates return to their reunions is to get back in touch with each other. You want the food, ambience, and entertainment to integrate with the mood of the party. Most importantly, you want to set people at ease--going to a high school reunion can be an unnerving experience, even for the most confident of people.

Plan Your Party with California DJs
One way to cut back on costs and to deliver quality entertainment is to hire a DJ to emcee your reunion. At California DJs, we've played dozens of high school reunions over our 14 years of existence, as well as anniversary parties, weddings, dances, movie premieres, and other functions. We can coordinate on site with your party planner, so you don't have to fret about the particulars and can enjoy the reunion yourself.

We can also tailor our music catalog to your tastes. For instance, if your high school class graduated in 1985, we can select 1980s music to provoke nostalgia and laughs from your audience. Additionally, we can serve as evening coordinators, spotlighting people for toasts, introducing special honored guests, and coordinating activities like dinner and dancing.
