How to throw an 80’s party

I attended an awesome 80’s prom bash fundraiser,

complete with a silent auction and prom pictures!

 

It was so fun, I want to throw my own version…here is the 80’s party round up:

 

 

Raid your parents closet and then check out Good Will!!

 

 

Here are the top 10

• 1. Bon Jovi / “Livin’ on a Prayer” (1986)
• 2. Def Leppard / “Pour Some Sugar On Me” (1987)

• Spray paint cassette and VHS tapes neon colors and hang everywhere

• 80’s candy [poprocks, bazooka gum with comic strips in each wrapper, flinstone candy sticks, tom & jerry candy, and scooby doo candy packs]

• sun glass table for dress up and photo-ops!

• Balloon photo back drop-  It’s made out of PVC piping and balloons attached with two foil curtains from Oriental Trading

She put the invite inside the neon wallet along with an uno card. The invite read, “uno you wanna’ be cool, right? so totally come to celebrate the year of ben’s birth! it’s a radical 80’s birthday party! come ready to have a tubular time! don’t give any bogus excuse! dress in your 80’s getup and be the bombdigity!” She even  had an 80’s friendship bracelet tied around the wallet with the recipients name. FUN!

 

And there you have it… an awesome 80’s inspired par-tay!
