Newsome's 50's Sock Hop

I was asked to help with Newsome's summer party.  It is a BIG party with 900 guests invited.  The family picks a theme each year and Karen asked me to help with some decoration ideas.  They chose a 50's Sock Hop theme this year which was very easy and fun to work with.

We ordered two of these big balloon ice cream sundaes by the entrance to the party.

The tables were decorated with these fun carnation ice  cream sundaes!  We ordered old vinyl records on ebay!

I also made some fun banners out of old 45 records and hung those in the food area.  The food was catered by Buster's BBQ and was yummy.

I loved the fun 50's themed sugar cookies.

The carnival ice cream cart made an appearance and was perfect for the root beer float station.

These cute banners were scattered around the party and were used to rope off the fun game areas.  We had hula hoops and jump ropes.

There was cotton candy too and I had to have some!
