Happy New Year! I hope you and yours enjoyed the holidays because I sure did! I had the opportunity to DJ a surprise 30th birthday party the end of December. This surprise birthday party definitely had The Right Stuff.
Brightly colored table cloths were laid out across the tables and New Kids on the Block balloons filled the place hall. I cued up "Cover Girl", the birthday girl's favorite song, and hit play as soon as the doors opened and she entered. The surprise went off without a hitch, which from what her husband told me is sometimes hard to do. Success. Once every one had a bite to eat New Kids on the Block trivia was played and prizes were to be won. To keep it with theme I mixed it with "Step by Step," "The Right Stuff," "Summertime," and "What Makes You Beautiful." I know, that last one is a One Direction song but, come on, all boy bands are the same right? Kidding. The birthday girl's uncle had purchased a set of key chain dolls for one of the trivia prizes that were One Direction band members that were renamed for members of New Kids on The Block. Thankfully the real Danny, Donnie, Jordan, Joey and Jon were gracious enough to spare some time from their busy schedules to pose for pictures all night. The dance floor filled shortly after that with a mix of the birthday girl's favorites from New Kids on the Block, Nickleback, Shinedown, and even a special request for some Saturday Night Fever. To say this party was a good time would have been the understatement of the year. With friends and family surrounding her it was soon time for her to make a wish, blow out the candles and open gifts. Did I mention the cake? In my line of business you see a lot of cakes, wedding cakes, anniversary cakes, what have you. But this cake, from Yum Bunnies Cakery, was the most amazing cake I have ever seen in my life. Completely fitting with the New Kids on The Block themed party, Jessa from Yum Bunnies captured every moment within New Kids on the Block's career! Trust me, it tastes as good as it looks! Working with the birthday girl's husband and her family during the party planning was exciting enough but to see the surprise on someone's face and everything to go as planned and beyond expectations is the rewarding part of this job. Happy 30th Birthday to you, Michelle! Interested in Timeless Events hosting your next party? Get your free event estimate now!
