70th Birthday Surprise! | Clearly Classy Events

Clearly Classy Events was thrilled to help with this "Around the World" surprise birthday party for a world traveler! These great moments were captured by Jeff Loftin Photography.

The tent and all other rentals were provided by Whim Event Rentals! We love how amazing the linens looked! A mixture of terracotta, navy, plum, taupe and olive tied everything in! And how about this amazing sperry tent! The peaks and flags give it such a special look!

The eye-popping centerpieces were arranged by the very talented team at Flora Fetish! She took our vision and made it a reality! With pops of deep purple and orange they made for such stunning arrangements!

While the kids anxiously awaited Billie's arrival they all played in the bouncy house provided by Let's Bounce!

When Billie arrived on-site, his wife was ready to lead him into the party! There is no better grand entrance than a golf cart led by bagpipers! When he arrived to the tent he was immediately greeted by his loving friends and family. Many guests came from other countries to share this special day with Billie.

Crave Catering put together an amazing meal for this party! Everything on the menu was absolutely fantastic! With a mashed potato bar, carving stations, cheeses and more, no one left hungry that night!

During dinner the guests enjoyed a film made by one of Billie's talented daughters. They laughed and cried while reflecting upon the love and adventures of Billie and his family.

Billie's daughter performed a set with her band, Acoustic Kitchen. That was the first night Billie has ever seen one of her concerts. He was extremely proud of his talented daughter. A piano from Steinway of Austin was brought in for the occasion!

Now what would a party be without a little photo booth fun? The photo booth was also done by Jeff Loftin Photography!

Since the theme of this party was "Around the World," it was only fitting that the cakes just looked like suitcases!! Can you tell the difference between the cakes and the real suitcases?? The Sweet Stuff did a fantastic job! The real suitcases and the globe for the cake table were rented from Bee Lavish, they have such an amazing selection of vintage and specialty decor!

During the after dinner toasts, close friends of Billie shared stories, performed songs, and even presented the birthday boy with gifts from their home countries. To end the night with a bang, Billie's wife surprised him with a trip to Argentina! The whole family would be traveling the next day together! What an amazing surprise!!
