Every year, I love planning my birthday celebration and bringing all my friends together for a night to remember. Last year, I was decided to do a buyout at ADKT, a restaurant on Fairfax that my friends had just opened.

What I loved most about ADKT was that the venue itself was so beautiful so I did not need to bring in any extra production. I added a few personal touches like candles to create a cozy vibe, photo toppers for the cocktails, custom cocktail menus, and Keir balloons to bring some fun to the space. I also set up a DJ booth for music, an In-N-Out cake from Cake & Art and late night pizza delivery from my friend Tommy at LA Sorted Pizza.

To make the night even more memorable, I went with a theme of “all shiny everything,” and my guests showed up in fabulous glitter outfits! A huge thanks to DJ Politik, Hints of Lavender, and Justin Bain for keeping the music flowing all night and setting the perfect vibe.
