Happy Birthday Doreen

This was a fun event to DJ: a surprise 60th birthday party. And Doreen really knew nothing about it. Her family put a lot of time and effort into making this birthday party one to remember, and they did a great job! Doreen’s daughter contacted us to do this party because we DJ’d her wedding five years ago. It was great to see the ‘newlyweds’ years later, still happily married and with a beautiful daughter.

The color for the party was turquoise, and there were beautiful floral centerpieces with turquoise and black balloons. The cake was white with a turquoise print on the side that matched the invitations. The top had dinosaurs and said “Sorry all your friends couldn’t make it.” LOL There were also custom made cookies at each place setting.

To tie all the turquoise together, we had eight turquoise uplights around the perimeter of the room. They looked fantastic and allowed us to dim the room lights for an awesome, elegant feel, and the perfect party atmosphere.

Doreen was brought into the room to a chorus of “Surprise!” followed by dinner and a slide show that brought tears and laughter. Guests then sang Happy Birthday, Doreen blew out the candles on her cake, some toasts were made, and the party was on. It’s easy for people to party when the Guest of Honor loves 50 Cent and Nelly!

What a fun night, and Happy Birthday Doreen!!!
