Joy's Suprise Party

Although Porter Valley is known for it's glamorous, larger-scale private events (like our fabulous weddings, golf tournaments, Bat Mitzvahs, etc.) we also often use the Homestead Room, a more intimate space, for smaller affairs like our member Joy's surprise party. Though the space is smaller (capacity is 120 guests seated), her family & friends went all out with the decor making this a party to remember.

This huge sign which tied in the colors & design of the event welcomed guests & let the cat out of the bag as Joy entered her surprise party. She was thrilled!

These gorgeous centerpieces with hanging crystal-like jewels brought out the details of our sconces & made for a dramatic look as Joy walked in the room.

Joy's family and close friends were all there to celebrate including her best friend Jess (below) who designed the gorgeous arrangements, tied the chairs with coordinating maroon sashes & organized the overall decor of the room. She had a great eye for details & the room looked amazing; if you need a planner send her an email!: Jess_Shores@yahoo.com The room looked flawless as guests began to arrive.

Let's not forget the tasty carrot cake with cream cheese frosting (one of my favs!) from La Creme Bakery.

Make a wish Joy! We hope you had a very happy surprise birthday party!
