Styled: Surprise Birthday Party

 { veggies & dip in shooter-style glassware }

When my girlfriend asked me to help style the surprise party she was throwing for her man, I couldn't say no.  We came up with a colour theme and went from there.  She came up with a great menu and did a super job preparing the food.  We made tissue paper pom-poms and I created the table layout.  She also asked me to stick around and play photographer for the evening, since she knows how much I love taking pictures.  The birthday boy was totally surprised and everything went extremely well, it was great.
