Fifty And Fabulous!

This was by far the most challenging party I have ever done.

This martial arts school had to be completely transformed into something fabulous for the birthday girl's 50th birthday. The location is usually full of equipment.

I suspended PVC piping from the ceiling and hung black curtains on them to hide the white walls. They were actually bed sheets converted into curtains.

I was also asked not to have burners for food so the food was on tiered trays I made through out the party. They wanted to have the feel of an elegant cocktail party.

We had a bartender serving the signature drinks created for the birthday gal and popping bottles for the quests.

Guest were asked to take a selfie with the Polaroid camera and add it to the memory photo album book along with a message.

It turned out to be lots of fun!
