PARTY DETAILS, as told by Jamee….

This was a sweet sixteenth birthday party for a very special teen.  Her mom (Michelle) was a high school friend of mine and lost her battle with cancer just months before this party.  I went to school with  both her mom and dad, who were high school sweethearts.  I stumbled upon a post that the dad put on Facebook about being a little lost about what to do with his daughters 16^th birthday so I reached out to him and told him I would decorate her party for her so that he wouldn’t have to worry about it.  I met with Parker (the sweet birthday girl) and she told me she liked pink and black and Juicy Couture so we took that and ran with it.  I put a call out to some of Michelle’s old high school friends to see if they would want to help with setting up the party and many girls responded and came out to help and honor Michelle through Parker’s party.

VENUE

The party was held at Grafton Peek Ballroom, a  space with high ceilings, large windows and wood flooring throughout.  We decorated the 5’ round tables with hot pink floor length linen with black satin toppers.  The centerpieces were hat box stacks with a Juicy style logo we created with Parkers initials.  We placed each centerpiece a top a glitzy mirror stand.  We covered the chairs with black chair covers and tied a hot pink sash in a corset fashion.  We hung giant hot pink and black 4’ round balloons from the ceiling to add dimension and color to the tall ceiling.

DECOR

We carried the Juicy theme throughout the party with custom drinking straws, VIP credential passes and an 8’ tall sign that hung in one of the massive windows. One of the main features, and a surprise to Parker, was the Sweet-n-Juicy Candy Buffet. The focal point of the buffet was the Sweet n Juicy Sign and the giant black stiletto shoe prop.  Some of the fun sweets featured on the buffet were lipstick chocolates displayed in Lucite lipstick holders, chocolate nail polish, gumball pearl bracelets hanging on a jewelry display, hat box containers filled with pink and black candy and purse shaped favor bags for guests to fill with candy.
