The School Street Bistro in Westfield MA – Westfield High Reunion Class of 1991
Reunions are always tough. It's more about setting the tone for the event v. dancing. With a mix of late 80's and early 90's music, we set the tone for this high school reunion. For the first few hours, everyone is interested in talking and catching up with old classmates. The last hour is really when people start dancing. I played some tunes that I have not played in year. Good times.
Class Reunion Top Tips
- Invite teachers!
- On nametags, have the person’s photo from the senior yearbook, so that everyone can identify each other more easily.
- Limit any raffles or speeches to 10 minutes or less (classmates are there to socialize and catch up - not win prizes)
- Make sure someone takes photos (hire a professional or designate someone to be responsible). These photos will come in handy for future gatherings
- Do not limit the music to your high school years. It is a great way to set the tone, but later on - your classmates may not want to relive their Frankie Goes To Hollywood and just may want to get down to LMFAO instead.
- Do not worry about decor or food - station style meal is fine. The food is not the reason they are gathering.
- Make sure there is ample time to socialize - designate an area with lounge furniture or a quiet area
