Venue for retirement party.
Choose a venue that best fits the size and style of your party. Whether you are planning a sit down meal or something as simple as having cake and punch with close friends, make sure the venue is accessible and comfortable for the majority of the guests.
Retirement party speeches.
Should there be a speech at the retirement party? Yes, after a lifetime of 9 to 5, there should be words spoken to acknowledge this accomplishment. What to say when someone is retiring?

Consider taking guests down memory lane by including several speakers from different jobs held throughout the years of employment.
This is your life in photos.
