And now Part 2 of the 50's Inspired 60th Birthday Bash ...
Party was held at La Provence in Roseville, Ca. I cannot say enough good things about the staff there or their onsite event planner Raquel! Food, beverages, service, atmosphere - perfect.
I wish I could have grabbed a few pics of the food - mini everything! Corn dogs, sliders, fries, onion rings, milkshakes, pot pies all reminiscent of a 50's diner. We had made little tags for all of them similar to the ones pictured above for the candy tags. Delish cupcakes from Cupcake Craving where a hit.
Balloons everywhere with 50's tunes playing in the background. Costumed guests in their best 50's get-ups. From poodle skirts, to greasers ... so much fun! The decor: a fab candy buffet, life-size cut-outs of James Dean and Marilyn Monroe, giant strawberry milkshake out of balloons, a balloon canopy and pictures from the first 60 years of the guest of honor papered the room.
Ooooh and there was a photobooth too! Guests took pictures and put them in a guest book with well wishes for the birthday girl. Adorable idea.
