Going away parties can be for a someone your know who is going on a long vacation, or for someone moving away.

In either case they are going to be far from family and friends, and getting together to wish them a good trip is fun and says "We'll miss you."

A casual, relaxed party is always a good idea, along with a presentation of a photo album or memory scrapbook for your friends as a heartfelt farewell.

Plans for a bon voyage or going away party might include the destination as a theme i.e., a Luau Party theme would be a perfect theme for friends venturing to Hawaii. Or think about college T-shirts or school colors for a party in honor of one going away to college
