Pamela's voyage on the Titanic

On August 2, 2008, Pamela Castillo celebrated her 16th birthday at Jungle Island. The theme was Titanic. For those of you that know me well, you know that Titanic is my favorite movie ever! I have seen it probably more than 50 times (I am not kidding). When my client came to me and told me that she wanted her birthday to include something with a ship.. I said of course.. it has to be a Titanic theme! I immediately contacted my friend Mark Baez at Fairytale Designs and shared my crazy ideas with him! He did a fabulous job in interpreting and converting my vision into reality. From life size rescue boats to capturing the logo of the white star on the wall, every replica was done to perfection.

Throughout the months of planning, I did my research well and found some pretty amazing things! I made sure I purchased memorabilia that looked original and truly represented the Titanic era. A couple of weeks prior to the event, I went to Las Vegas and visited the Titanic exhibit. I was so honored to have seen everything that I saw and read all the articles that are included in this amazing and breathe taking exhibit. This really allowed me to make Pamela's event even more creative and unique.

The foyer area at Jungle Island, represented a museum that included pictures, artifacts and boarding passes that included most of the passengers names that boarded on the ship. Once the guests entered the ballroom, they were greeted by amazing floral arrangements done by my great colleague and friend, Jorge Nevot. The linens and chairs were provided by AB Covers and the stage and lighting were provided by Fairytale Designs. The music was provided by Ubi's Music Production and the DJ was accompanied by the magnificent percussionist, Eugenio Doria. Once the guests took their seats, there were two oversized projectors on which the Titanic Movie played throughout the night.

The choreography was done by Liz Sanchez and the young couples did a total of 3 dances. After the choreography was done, the first course was served. During the meal, there was a slideshow with pictures of Pamela growing up with her friends and family. The party began with great music and positive energy. Towards the middle of the party, the guests were suprised with the thrilling beat of brazilian drums and the fascinating brazilian women. Everyone had a fabulous time at the party and could not beleive that so many emotions could be felt in on one very special night!
