A theme is the perfect place to start your planning process. Once you\u2019ve chosen a theme, it\u2019ll be easier to pick out everything else \u2014 from your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">party decorations<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to your invitations to your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">going away gift<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>1. Planes, Trains, and Automobiles<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not just for<\/span><strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/kids-birthday-invitations\">kids\u2019 birthday parties<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, this theme is adorable for any <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">going away party<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Instead of focusing on the fact that your friend is leaving, focus on the fact that they\u2019re going places! Use mini plane, train, and automobile figurines as <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">party decorations<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, get a matching cake, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">napkins<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, paper plates, and the whole shebang.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2. The Sound of Music<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Say \u201cSo long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, adieu,\u201d with this delightful musical theme. It\u2019s ideal for a friend who is about to start traveling (Europe, here we come!) or a friend who loves this classic story. You can screen the film in the background of your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">goodbye party<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, play the soundtrack, or ask everyone to show up in costumes of their favorite characters.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3. Shipping Out<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We love this theme because it can be interpreted in so many different ways. You can choose a literal ship theme and throw a classic <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bon voyage party<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, complete with imagery of old steamer ships. You can<\/span><strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.loc.gov\/exhibits\/bobhope\/uso.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">channel Bob Hope and the Andrews Sisters<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and add some USO-style entertainment to your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">going away party<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. And if someone you love is joining the military, you can decorate with their branch\u2019s insignia, motto, and colors.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4. Maps<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maps and globes make beautiful party backdrops. Hang them all around, place pins to mark the location your friend is moving away from and the one they\u2019re moving to. Get globe-themed paper plates, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">napkins<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and balloons. And if you\u2019re celebrating a recent <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">grad<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, bring a copy of Dr. Seuss\u2019s \u201cOh the Places You\u2019ll Go\u201d as a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">farewell gift<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You can have guests sign the inside cover like a yearbook.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>5. \u201cFriends\u201d<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you\u2019re saying goodbye to a childhood bestie or a work bestie, this 90s sitcom classic is a fun theme to let your friend know that no matter what, \u201cI\u2019ll be there for you!\u201d Hang a banner with the \u201cFriends\u201d logo and decorate with black tablecloths, sprinkled with primary-color <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">confetti<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Make a sign with a Friends-style episode title, chosen specifically for your friend\u2019s <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">farewell party<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 something like \u201cThe One Where Amanda Moves Away\u201d for a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">going away party<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or \u201cThe One Where John Retires\u201d for a<\/span>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/retirement-party-ideas\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>retirement party<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>7 <\/b><b>Farewell Party Invitations<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">farewell<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/party-planning\"><strong>party<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong> planning<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> easier by sending out digital invitations.

It\u2019s a beautiful tribute to let your friend know how much they\u2019ll be missed. If your friend group is shy about public speaking, you can also have them write down their favorite memories and add it to a jar or keepsake box.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3.

(In fact, if the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">guest of honor<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is moving, then smaller is better \u2014 they have enough to pack.) Think of this as a token of your affection. It only needs to be a small memento that will help your friend remember you and the other guests at your party. Here are a few ideas to inspire you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>1. Signed <\/b><b>Guest Book<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even better than a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">goodbye card<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">guest book<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a sweet keepsake for any momentous occasion. During a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">farewell party<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it allows each of your guests to write a goodbye message, share words of encouragement, and let the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">guest of honor<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> know just how special they are.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2. Box of Lucky Charms<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your friend might need a little luck on their next journey, so give them a box of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">good luck<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> charms. Ask guests if they\u2019d like to contribute something that\u2019s brought them luck and have each person write a short note explaining their <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">good luck<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> charm. Some fun charms to add might include a ladybug pin, an acorn, a horseshoe, a shamrock, and other<\/span> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.invaluable.com\/blog\/good-luck-charms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">symbols of good luck from around the world<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3. Photo Album<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can be hard to find the words to say goodbye to a good friend, so let your favorite photos do the talking. Ask your guests to send their favorite pictures with the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">guest of honor<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Then, add them to an album that your friend can look back on when they\u2019re far away.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4. Succulent<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the few plants hardy enough to survive a big move, a succulent is a good gift for any bittersweet occasion. Write a punny note to go with it that says, \u201cThis place is going to succ without you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>5. A Scratch-Off Map<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your friend is about to go on a big adventure, help them keep track of it all with a scratch-off map. Every time they go somewhere new, they can scratch it off just like a scratch-off sticker to reveal a full-color image underneath.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>So Long, Farewell<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12765\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-of-friends-doing-a-group-hug.jpeg\" alt=\"Farewell party: group of friends doing a group hug\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-of-friends-doing-a-group-hug.jpeg 850w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-of-friends-doing-a-group-hug-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/group-of-friends-doing-a-group-hug-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Life is full of beginnings and endings of closing one chapter and opening another.
