80s brought the sunshine

Nat here. Well the 80s guinea party was a hit!  Everyone dressed up which was super fun, we had Pat Cash, Karate Kid, Madonna, white suits, mullets, side ponies, fingerless gloves, leg warmers, pleats, power suits and everything in between - we had the 80s sufficiently covered in clothes alone! Here's a run down on the night.

First for the table settings:

Baby's breath played a big part, as did mustard yellow everything, carnations and butter in triangles.  The menu was also in theme:

We started with blue lagoons made by husband:

He rocked a Gordon Gekko outfit.  Next came the starters - rockmelon and proscuttio (thanks Gem!), kebana and cheese, cocktail onions - all served on oranges of course:

And there wasn't an 80s dinner party without Jatz:

Next was the entree which I didn't get a snap of but was a prawn cocktail with brandy sauce which was quite delicious.  Main was baked chicken maryland with an avocado salad and tomato sauce (iceberg lettuce played a large part in the evening):

Dessert was marshmallow pavlova slice which looked like the photo in the book!  The piping was easy with the use of an icing syringe - highly recommend you all purchase one of those!

Then came the best part - dancing to the 80s classics:

Bring on the next guinea!
