Over a year ago, my cousin, Cortni, and I talked about throwing ourselves a joint birthday party to celebrate the momentous occasion of us both turning twenty-nine this year. Well, that moment finally came to fruition on Saturday, April 26 when we hosted twentyFine, our twenty-ninth birthday bonanza!
The Speakeasy here in Cutesville, USA was the obvious choice to host our Roaring 20’s themed gala and we truly pulled out all the stops to ensure this night was second to none. So come take a look at a smattering of the evening as showcased from the fun-filled photos taken by our onsite photographer, my friend, Reese.

There are mirrors all over The Speakeasy and I’m thankful for Reese’s ability to utilize them to our photographic advantage!
My Signature Cocktail that evening, “The Benjamin,” was an Espresso Martini. Loved it so much I had two, which is twice as much as I ever drink!
Machine Gun Alley keeps the theming on point!

Turned Machine Gun Alley into a dance floor where all the hottest hits of mine and Cortni’s lives were played. Needless to say, it was nothing but jams! Britney Spears only showed up 8x on our playlist. It was hard, but we managed to hold ourselves back from playing all her anthems.
twentyFINE exceeded every expectation! Really and truly, it was THE BEST time! Outside of Disneyland, I don’t know if I’ve had this much fun since my wedding! There’s a real chance that next year I might actually turn forty. Not sure yet, but the possibility is certainly there. Should that end up being the case, I’ll definitely have my work cut out for me in trying to top twentyFINE as everything about it was just perfect.
As always, THANK YOU so much for viewing! Please feel free to leave a comment below as I LOVE reading and responding to them! I’ll return soon with another all new post, so until then, I wish you all, all the best!
Working hard everyday towards achieving my goal of becoming an international best-selling author. Wrote the book, just need the agent and publisher. Received the ultimate endorsement when Britney Spears wrote me saying she'd be one of the first in line to buy my book! #FreeBritney
This was such a great party! You two did well!
Thank you, thank you! It was THE BEST time!
