Another school year has drawn to a close, but this one has been unlike any before it. While classes continued online, grades were still recorded, and graduation still happened, it was a virtual experience. Many high school and college grads missed out on some of the traditional events that come with graduation.

Despite the differences, there is still every reason to celebrate. It will just be different in some ways but still focus on the incredible accomplishments of San Diego high school grads and college grads. Here are some ways to celebrate the Class of 2020 in San Diego:

  • Decorate your home, inside and outside, with graduation-themed streamers and banners. Yard signs, announcing graduation, have become popular ways to let everyone know there is a grad in the neighborhood.
  • Have a car parade come to your neighborhood or organize one through the area with other grads and their parents.
  • Host a virtual graduation party or invite a small group over, whichever is the safest choice to make.
  • Order food from your grad’s favorite restaurant or cook them up their favorite dish.
  • Create a virtual slide show or video to share on social media about your grad.

You don’t want to forget the graduation flowers and gifts, either! Our San Diego flower shop is ready to help you celebrate your child’s accomplishments with a range of graduation gifts for high schoolers and college grads. 

In San Diego, floral leis have always been a popular addition to enhance the cap and gown. Just because you are not having an in-person ceremony doesn’t mean you can’t still get one of these beautiful displays. They are perfect for re-enacting the commencement ceremony at home and for taking pictures to commemorate the occasion.

Our orchid flower leis come in a range of colors. Call and check with us to see what’s available when placing an order.

We also have graduation gift packages that are sure to delight your grad! These packages come with a graduation-themed teddy bear, floral arrangement, and graduation Mylar balloon.

For the college graduate over the age of 21, we also have graduation packages that offer a bottle of champagne, teddy bear, and balloon or that can be upgraded to also include a floral bouquet with that bottle of bubbly and other gifts.

Order by phone or online through our website. We offer curbside pickup and no-contact delivery throughout San Diego.
