Sweet Sixteen Party

I received a call on Friday morning from one of my previous clients with a request to help her decorate for her daughter's sixteenth birthday. After I showed up at the house to see what I had to work with, I was asked to assist them with ordering a cake, finding a caterer and entertainment for the party. It was 4:30 in the afternoon on a Friday and the party was the next day at 8 pm! Wow did I have my work cut out. We were able to secure the services of Gran Sol Catering to provide chicken and steak tacos. I also hired our awesome caricature artist to entertain the guests. We showed up at the house at 6 pm the next day with tables, chairs, belly bars, balloon bouquets and a fabulous cake I designed myself. I ordered the cake through Albertson's bakery since we work with them very closely. They designed a cake with some ideas I had and came up with an awesome looking cake. The colors we used for the decorations were picked out by the birthday girl's mom - hot pink, turqoise, black and silver. The decorations looked very appropriate for a teenager who did not want a "little kids" birthday. When she found out that her dad had hired a caricature artist - she flipped out! I think her mind changed as soon as she saw him. The party turned out to be a success with over 100 teenagers ready to party! Pictures of the event to follow!
