Saved by the Bell

Jared turned thirty in December, and I wanted to do a surprise party for him. Well, I did not have much luck keeping it surprise. But I did try to keep the theme under wraps for as long as I could! Jared always loved watching Saved by the Bell when he was growing up (he even has the seasons on DVD).  I decided to throw a Saved by the Bell party where people could come dressed in 80/90s or Saved by the Bell character attire. It was a blast to celebrate with friends from MI and Indy. 

I wanted to share the party planning and pictures of the event. Check it out! 

The decor:
Good will was my friend during the whole planning process. I found great 80/90s decorations, such as an old clock, huge boom box, retro tv....I also found some fun blow up guitars for photo props. I made the "pom poms" to add color to the room. I have to thank our awesome friends Kiersten and Dane for making the fun signs with the Saved by the Bell characters and sayings. They looked awesome and made the room come together. I made Bayside High Detention/Desserts sign with chalkboard spray paint and chalk. FYI chalkboard spray paint works great! Oh, we also had a photo "booth" for fun pics of everyone in their attire!

The food:
I made a table of Bayside High Desserts. Each dessert had a character theme. 
"Screech on a stick"- marshmallows with melted chocolate and sprinkles on a stick
Lisa "Turtles"- yummy turtles
Zach Attack Snacks- funfetti brownies
Jessie's "Energy Pills"- skittles in little cups
Slater's Sugar Cookies: sugar cookies with funky 80s designs
Saved by the Bell characters pictures on chocolate cupcakes
Zack's Huge Cellphone- Jared's Birthday Cake

The Max was where the characters would hang and eat burgers.
I had a table for mini burgers, fries, and chicken sandwiches.
We also had root beers and waters labeled with the Saved by the Bell emblem.
