 The Belmont Stakes is the final race in the Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing. The Belmont is actually older than the Kentucky Derby by six years, but not as well known as the Derby. The race is run five weeks after the Kentucky Derby at Belmont Park on Long Island, New York. When researching traditions for this race, it was hard to find much even after hours of research. One of our customers ordered invitations and we loved her theme of "Belmont Stakes and Steaks Party." As the race is held on a Saturday between June 5th and 11th, it's a perfect opportunity to grill steaks and enjoy a great excuse to party with friends. Her menu consisted of New York fare:
As for Belmont fashion, while you won't see as many hats as at the Derby, if you are lucky enough to get tickets to the Belmont and want to get noticed and possibly have your picture in the paper (my picture was in the paper the day after the Kentucky Derby!), a fabulous hat is a must-have accessory. Unlike the Derby, hats for the Belmont Stakes tend to be sleek and clean and can run from around $70 to thousands of dollars. Please comment and let us know your Belmont Stakes traditions and what food you're serving at your Belmont Stakes party.

 Every graduate will have a list of “must invite” people and that's a good place to start when planning your graduation party guest list. How do you decide on who to invite? Make a list of:
Once you have your guest list started, the most important thing you must do is pick a date for your party. While this may seem easy, consider the end of school will be filled with other friend's graduation parties, weddings, and summer vacations, so the earlier you can decide on a date, the better.  A crucial aspect of picking a date is to make sure the most important people in your child's life, grandparents, best friends, and other relatives, have the date open. Make sure everyone has the day off work, including the graduate, your spouse and your graduates significant other! Make sure best friends' parents don't schedule their party the same time as yours as everyone will be disappointed, your party mood and turnout and will suffer or may even be cut short to accommodate other events. You may want to consider mailing Save the Date Cards eight weeks or more in advance of your party so guests can mark their calendars. Parents that also have a child graduating will appreciate the heads up to avoid scheduling their party at the same time and making graduates and friends choose which party to attend. If you have people that won't come to the party because it's too hard for them to travel, consider sending graduation announcements to them instead of an invitation to a party. Your graduate will be talking about graduation on social media and at school, so be sure to include your child in all areas of party planning so your party will go smoothly and they will not miss out on important events or friends' parties they might not have told you about yet. Remember, your graduate is going to be busy with their friends at their graduation parties and you will probably be invited to several of them too, so be sure to leave time in your schedule to relax and celebrate this milestone in your child's life.

Asking her preferences on a few things doesn't mean she has to be involved in ALL the planning. You do not have to give up control and bow to her every whim, it just means you are being nice and want her input on a few ideas you have. The end result is you want her to be happy with you and pleased with the outcome of the shower you gave hosted for her.  |
