We had the pleasure of working with three lovely ladies who were approaching their 13th Birthday and wanted to celebrate in style. They wanted a Hollywood Glamour theme with a modern lounge vibe so we decided to host the party at Axis Cafe in Potrero Hill because of it's modern aesthetic and indoor-outdoor space. 75 of the girls' closest friends were picked up in Marin by a limo bus and were transported to San Francisco. They were greeted with a purple carpet entrance and were swarmed by paparazzi snapping photos and asking for autographs. Once inside the guests were treated to a selection of mocktails each created by one of the birthday girls. There were tray passed bit sized hors d'oeuvres as well as a food buffet and chocolate fondue fountain. A tarot card reader, glitter tattoo artist, and acrobats entertained the party guests and the DJ was spinning until the end of the night. It was definitely a nice change from our usual wedding life! Thanks to Tara Arrowood for the amazing photos and Justin Fone for the film.
