50's Themed Birthday Party

This weekend we did a 50's themed 50th birthday party top to bottom. Some of the fun elements of this party; the entire guest list came dressed in 50's gear, the candy bar was displayed in old fashioned penny candy jars with all the birthday boy's favorite candies, and the live band hosted a dance off between the men and the women! Too fun!

Records and streamers adorned the tent and spun in the wind. Along the back side of the tent you can see a record wall. Each of those records has a different photo of the birthday boy in the center. The guests really enjoyed lookig at the photos!

Birthday banners are such a fun way to honor someone on their special day!!

When the guests arrived they were greeted with a record shaped name tag and given a pennant. The pennants had names that the birthday boy goes by, along with his birth year and the number "50". The whole crowd was waving their pennants when the guest of honor arrived to his surprise party!!


Great name tags! Laminated and backed with a pin.


Themed cupcakes in three designs: colored flags, records and music notes. Half chocolate, half vanilla, all topped with a creamy buttercream icing. Fig & Ruby can CAKE your next event!! We have a passion for cake and we can create something wonderful to coordinate with your theme.

Check out that black classic car in the background...it is a BBQ grill!! Boyd's Auto rents this awesome grill and gives 100% of the proceeds to a local charity. For this event, we brought in Gorgeous George's Gourmet Burgers. They are located downtown by the sails, right next to Moolix. Gorgeous George's and Moolix are actually owned by the same AWESOME guy. "Gorgeous George" created authentic handmade-from-scratch burgers and fries for the 70 guests. It was terrific!


Cupcakes on display with all the fixings for a fabulous sundae bar. Ice cream provided by Moolix was out of this world topped with all sorts of treats that the family provided.

The guest of honor's wife came to us with a vision of a 50's themed party that included old fashioned Coke bottles. We found them and made it happen and they were truly such an awesome touch. Unfortunately we did not get a photo of the table centerpieces...Black ice buckets filled with ice and coke bottles poking out of the top-so fun!!
