If distance or circumstances prevent loved ones from gathering in person, consider hosting a virtual graduation celebration instead. Use video conferencing platforms to connect with family and friends from near and far and celebrate together virtually. Send out digital invitations, digital graduation balloons, decorate your virtual background with graduation-themed images or banners, and have everyone raise a toast to the graduate's success. You can even surprise the graduate with a virtual balloon drop or a slideshow featuring memorable moments from their academic journey.
