It's the Labor Day weekend!!! That means most of you are currently having the time of your life in Boracay or anywhere else in the world that is not within a 1 mile radius of the place you call home. SO HAPPY FOR YOU GUYS. Walang halong kabitteran. Pramis. Hahaha. Now, for those of you who are stuck in Manila or stuck at home (like me), don't fret! Why not bring the fun at home??? You know, you don't have to go someplace else just to party and have fun. Remember: YOU ARE THE PARTY.;) My childhood friends and cousins are planning our 2nd Laborahay party tomorrow! Here are photos and stories from our Marrakech inspired party May 1 of last year....
This is actually not super necessary, but it's fun planning when you have a theme right?! Last year, we accidentally decorated the place Marrakech style. Hihi. My birthday party last year was Coachella inspired. For our party tomorrow, theme is beach lang. Haha tamad na mag-isip. LOL.
Of course, no venue no party right?! We held ours at our "adopted" cousin's (childhood friend hihi) house in Cubao. It's just walking distance from everyone else's house. A huge thank you Chuck and Tita Kibby for always hosting us!!! :) Sana di na tayo pabarangay ng neighbor niyo. Haha.
Our party last year was a spur of the moment decision. Just like our party tomorrow. Which we only finalized tonight. HAHA! Last year, the boys decorated the place and mobile bar, while I was in charge of the tambay area set-up. I just brought all the mats and small pillows I have at home. TADA!
Last year, I tried searching online for pool rentals but was not able to find any. We decided to just forget about it but was able to borrow one at the last minute. Kahit maliit, pwede na! For the feels lang! Haha.
Last year, we did potluck. We asked everyone to bring at least 1 dish or booze to the party. Success naman! Di naman kami namatay sa uhaw and gutom. Haha. We had pasta, grilled pork, grilled hotdog, nachos, veggies, etc. We also had cocktails! As the night progressed, everyone chipped in to buy more beer.
We borrowed a nice set of speakers from our neighbor, Kuya Bong! I think they just plugged one phone to play party songs the whole night. Someone also brought a disco light to set the mood. No need to rent na! :)
