Dr. Jabari Jones had his 40th birthday party at the Candy Apple Café. This was my first time at the venue. I’ve been to Sweet Pete’s downstairs for candy but I had never seen the beauty of the third floor rental space.

Dr.Jones is one class act. When I saw his invitation box, I knew that his party was going to be nice, but once we started to set up, gosh the details were just breath taking. His planner Charles Dallas really outdid himself.

I believe the good doctor has a thing for a good suit, because the birthday party was inspired by his love for Brooks Brothers suits. We used the party invitation, and the event colors as our inspiration for this masculine and sophisticated theme that blended well with the event décor and our sparkly silver backdrop topped off the event.

For the props,we were asked to keep it simple. But that doesn’t mean that guests weren’t able to have fun. Our props that celebrated forty in a classy way were arranged beautifully in a chrome vase on top of high boy with a paisley patterned linen.

We also had some knew help, meet Dee. This was Dee’s first but hopefully not last time helping with the booth. She was full of energy and kept the guests full of smiles.
