Welcome to the Jungle: ’80s Summer Party Inspiration

April 29, 2014 by Kate 2 Comments

Tropical party montage

Hi Everyone! I’m looking ahead to our next Retro Foodie event–a tropical party with jungle-style undertones. The menu is still in the works, but rest assured there will be spicy fish with citrusy accents, lots of fresh fruit, popsicles for dunking in the cocktails, and of course, those little drink umbrellas…

I’ll be sharing the pics in May, but until then, check out the mood board above, then browse the links below for more info about the images!

 

IMAGE SOURCES:

Top Row: Play Fruit Templates from Mr. Printables, Waipio Tropical Bouquet from Hawaii’s Tropical Flowers

Second Row: Oh Joy! Round Plate in Aqua from Target, An illustration by Naomi Wilkinson

Third Row: Food coloring-soaked citrus via Pinterest, Pineapple image from South Texas Gardening with Bob Webster

Fourth Row: Monstera leaf image from Sierra Flower Finder, Cocktail umbrellas from Posing in Vintage

 

We can’t wait to make this party a reality next month and bring you all the pics…
