The best way to pay homage to your guest of honor is to personalize the party details to his or her name, likeness, and interests.Personalized Invitations: Putting the guest of honor's face on an invitation is easy. If you're sending online invitations upload your photo to Celebrations "Plan A Party" section and start inviting friends right away.

To personalize mailed invites, check out the Tiny Print's stylish designs that you can use with your own photo or try a personalized candy bar wrapper as a sweet invitation.

Theme Party: Think about what your honoree likes and plan your party with a theme centered on his or her favorite interests. To get the ideas flowing, consider a popular party theme such as a luau, casino party, or a bbq. There is plenty of decor available for these themes and you can personalize it with the guest of honor's favorite colors.

Personalized Farewell Banner: Who doesn't love to see their name up in lights, or at the very least on a banner. Personalize a banner as a marquis for your party with the honoree's name and face. Another way to go is to make your own banner by stringing large letters together to spell out a name or salutation.

Imprinted Napkins and Matchbooks: Beverage napkins and matchbooks imprinted with the guest of honor's name, image, or even a favorite quote is a great way to add a personal touch to a party.

Signature Cocktails: Another way to personalize the party is serving a signature cocktail with a fun title that ties in the honoree's name such as "Joe Margaritas" or go with a generic name like "Evelyn's Elixir."
