Party Recap

For my 40th Birthday I wanted to celebrate the themes that were representative of my tween and teen years in the late 90's and early 2000's. I hosted a 90's themed pool party based on MTV's Spring Break series that I grew up watching. All guests came dressed in their 1990's themed pool and beach attire and were met with vibrant colors throughout my backyard, complete with a "beach boutique" which housed favors such as flip flops, sunblock, sunglasses, beach bags, popcorn and cotton candy. Guests also received custom beach towels with the party theme and logo. We danced the night away to all of my favorite songs growing up in Southern California from Snoop Dogg to Ice Cube. It was truly an old school kickback!
