Bon Voyage Party
Morning!
My cousin and her boyfriend are moving across country to Arizona. My family is having a bon voyage party the food and DJ are taken care of but we wanted a mini-program. Any thoughts of what should be included?? One was a toast but anything else. This is my first bon voyage party I have been to. So all ideas are welcome.
thanks.

Re: Bon Voyage Party
Do you mean a program that will be handed out like at wedding ceremonies? Or just a rough timeline for the hosts to follow?
I *think* you're looking for things to fill the evening, but I think you're pretty much covered with food and a DJ. That's enough for a good party, IMO.
I think a toast(s) is a good idea.
Would you want to do a blessing at dinner maybe?
If you're looking for decor ideas, maybe some small cactus cookies as favors and added decor on the table.
Maybe you can set up a little station where people can write their addresses, so the guests of honor can keep in touch and send "new address" notices once they've settled. Like a blank address book.
You might want to designate someone to take photos so that you can upload the images online for the guests to view and print later.
HTH!
