Last weekend our close friend Trent turned 40 {or 30 if you ask him} :)
I had the pleasure of working with his awesome wife and another great
friend to put together a surprise party for him. Saying that he likes
to dress-up would be the understatement of the year. This guy
takes wigs, mustaches and costumes VERY seriously. I swear, every
time I see him he's added at least two new wigs to his collection.
It's awesome and I love it!
For the party we decided to go with a 70's theme because
costumes from that era are one of his favs and it's also
the decade of his birth. Hence Studio 74 was born.
This party was a blast from the past.
Seriously, so much fun!
I kept the décor fairly simply and went with a white, gold and silver
color palate because I wanted all the lighting to really pop and make
it feel like a 70's nightclub. The event was held at Urban Studio
in downtown Portland and the space was perfect.
An open bar, delicious food, one giant chocolate cake

transported us all to a time that was totally far out!
Have a look at Studio 74!

The invitation I designed.
I made the big Studio 74 sign and hung it in front of the silver pipe and drape. The awesome KC at MDM Productions made it pop with some killer lighting.

The cake was GIANT and super delicious.
It was great seeing so many guests arrive in costume!
