Select an Appropriate Confirmation Party Banner

Step1

Choose graphics for the banner. A cross, a Bible and a dove are all very good, symbolic graphic choices.

Step2

Select a banner size based on where you want to hang it. You can create a smaller one and tape it to the wall, or you can purchase a larger banner if you're hanging it outside the front of a house or banquet hall. Outdoor banners help guests to recognize the place as they arrive.

Step3

Decide if you want to design the banner yourself or buy it premade.

Step4

Have the banner personalized with your confirmand's name and perhaps the date if you buy it premade.

Step5

Select a Bible verse to have printed on the banner. Choose a verse that fits with the confirmation theme of spiritual growth and maturity, such as I Corinthians 13:11.

Step6

Design a banner on your computer fairly easily using most publishing programs. However, printing it out often involves taping regular-sized sheets of paper together. This can be tiresome and look tacky. You might try saving the design to a disc and taking it to a professional printing store. They should be able to print the banner for you on good-looking banner paper, fairly cheaply.

Step7

Mount the banner: punch holes in the top corners on either side of the banner and hang it from metal hooks with string. Alternately, you can tape a lightweight banner to the wall.

Tips & Warnings

Keep in mind that this is a religious celebration, and your confirmation party banner should reflect the reverence of the occasion.
Be sure to have strong and durable mounting materials for your banner. Otherwise, it may fall down in the middle of the party.
