On our daughter's adoption day, we just dressed all up for court, got special teddy bears for both her and our oldest daughter, and then went out to dinner afterwards with some family. We got our oldest daughter a "Big Sister" badge and our new daughter a "Little Sister" one.
We held off on the party until her dedication (christening) at church. Then we had a party and played a Powerpoint of pictures of her over the past 17 months she had been with us and we showed a music video about adoption. (I think it was Steven Curtis Chapman -- "When Love Takes You In" -- not sure if that's the exact title.)
Congratulations! I say even if you just had a party, party some more! It's reason to celebrate!
