Like... This Party Was Totally Awesome!!

Okay, everyone! Get your slap bracelets out, and use your scrunchies to put your ponytail up on top of your head, break out the hammer pants, and get those keds with neon shoestring to kickin'... things are about to get tubular, dude!

I'm so excited that Gabbie (from Southern Magnolia, Inc) was willing to share her daughter's 80's themed birthday party with us.

She didn't leave out a single detail!

She had "VIP" tags for the kids to wear...

She did a photo shoot with her daughter (she's a photographer), printed out the photos on labels, and attached them to a cardboard lanyard.

How cute is she?! 80's fabulicious!

The guests signed a photo mat for her keepsake. LOVE those neon 80's colored Sharpies.

And! That Rubik's cube with the cassette tape label! Adorable!

She also used them to label the food on the table. See those candy dots?! CUTE!

This table housed the signable photo mat, the VIP tags, and favor bags...

A great thing to keep in mind when you are planning a party, is that you want to provide your guests with a way to label their drinks... it saves on cups, and helps prevent a stranger from drinking from your cup. Gross! She used the cassette labels on these neon plastic party cups, and they are adorable! :)

She thought outside of the box when she created her cupcake "stand". She flipped her cake stand upside down, and filled it with 80's sunshades... OOOH My!

And... red punch... so 80's. Kool aid was a huge hit during that decade. As a matter of fact, it was so popular, the next decade (90's, yo!) came up with the saying, "Up in my Kool Aid". I know that was a piece of trivia you are all thankful you know, now. ((giggles))

And, every fabulous party needs a photo booth!

Look at that cute sign & those adorable props. ADORABLE!

And, of course, no 80's party is complete without the subtle glow of a neon glow stick...

The most important part of the birthday party was that the sweet girl who was celebrating enjoyed every minute!

See... I told you that it was an awesome party. Makes you want to bust out, doin' the hammer dance, right?!

Ice, ice baby...
