We set up a photo backdrop so that all the dance guests could take pictures. It was a huge hit and super simple to make. We just created "records" out of black poster board and made the labels out of neon cardstock. We cut out our title using a stencil (old fashion I know but I didn't want to lug a die-cut machine with me!) and the same cardstock we used to make the labels. We attached everything to some white paper that you would use when making a bulletin board in someplace like a classroom. A little tape and some hot glue and we were all set!
Yes, even Jay and I got in on the fun! Jay came straight from work so wasn't in his 80's garb but I was rocking my high side ponytail, blue eye shadow, Flashdance inspired cut shirt and leopard print skirt!
