I am so so excited for you Raven. Time flies . You picked the perfect theme for your 30th birthday celebration. I can see your guests in tails, tuxedoes and 20s themed dresses and headwear. I know this will be special.
So many things to say: 1. I love the new video format 10/10 2. Chef Toni looks AMAZING like thriving isn’t even the word 3. Zoe seems so sweet I love y’all’s dynamic 4. The party already looks lit can’t wait to see more!
The party planning is beautiful but let's get into this new footage style of filming. Yesss camera and editing. Real life with raven. New reality TV show. I'm here for this!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My mom did this for her 40th complete with dance performances by ‘flappers’ (great gatsby had come out that year so we had like 3 flapper inspired performances to the music from the album) it was so fun and the pictures came out AMAZING
You should do a 20's inspired photoshoot with Rell and take behind the scenes video of the making, change the color to black and white and have that footage along with the pictures play on the TV's during the party!
This is giving me an uber elegant 'Harlem Night's' Eddie Murphy's classic movie vibe. I can already see this is going to be a classy 1920's renaissance 30th birthday party. Love from London, UK.
Hi Raven, I love your page. I have been following you for some time, now. I understand that you need a Jazz Band that plays modern style music. May I make a suggestion? I understand that UTA has a Jazz Department on campus. You might want to look there for Jazz musicians or go to the main office of the Jazz Department and ask them to make referrals of students,(the students or either already playing with a band or can put a jazz band together for you), or you could make a flyer requesting an audition of some Jazz bands. ON the flyer, you should leave your request or what you are auditioning the Bands for, your contact information and other information regarding the party. As for the price of payment for the band, it is probably easier to ask a musician on the scene, there in Austin for the average payment of a Band for the evening. I know that this is unsolicited advice but I hope that you will find it helpful.
as an OG SUBBIE I love raven and can see her landing a television show centered around content creation and party planning. But she know good and well we live for the weekly vlogs and chill content.
Raven i already know that your 30th birthday going to be amazing .Because you always do beautiful parties and you are going to look so beautiful at your party .❤❤❤
I don't usually leave comments, but the production of this video deserves my extra effort. Great video, Raven! I'm excited to watch it all come together.
This new style of editing & videography is very satisfying. The party is going to be amazing! I’m eager to see all the little details you put together 👏🏽 🙇🏽♀️ Plus this hairstyle of chef Toni is chef’s kiss 👩🏽🍳 😘
I want to come! You should let some subbies come sense it’s not at your house. And I’m turning 30 this year too! And I live in Austin. And I won best dressed a couple times in my life and already have an outfit in mind 🤣 Okay I’m done auditioning. Please pick me! 😂 I’m 100% serious! I want to come!
Heyyy 🎉🎉🎉 happy Sunday! Absolutely loving and appreciating the upgrades. It's giving hgtv/ Sorry girls/Mr Kate meets lifestyle/ vlogging in the BEST WAY. I was gona watch regardless, but this is so exciting to see how things have been changing. Go Raven!
I hope you see this. I think you should hang a black white close up photo of yourself smoking those long thin cigarettes like the 20’s over the red decor piece.
I'm EXCITED about your party. I hired a band for one of my birthday parties, and I gave them cd's (yes cd's) with tons of my music that I wanted them to play and they did just that. It was AMAZING.
"I mean its my birthday" LOL you said that a few times... I know that's right! I can't wait to see this. BTW love this style of editing, filming, storytelling. You are doing great.
16:55 my epiphany,,, ready?? Wedding planner and special event coordinator, PROFESSIONALLY! OH, okay 22:12! You already nailed it! Girl, you're supper fly and on point. I just love seeing your moms, just so supportive, and there to help and let you spread your wings. So dynamic! Keep soaring y'all! Keep soaring. We are here for this content! 🤗🥰😘🙏💕
@@ToniTannerScott It looks like a lot of fun! Hopefully you will get to just enjoy this party since you are relieved of cooking duties. Just let Elyse know that we have put you on the guest list only. LOL
I finally had sometime to watch the full video and I must say Zoey is doing a great job with the camera work! Go Zoey!🎉 I love to see the dynamic between everyone on the Raven Elyse Team. Chef Toni in her element of knowing exactly how to calculate the amount of bites for each person was very impressive. Definitely like the idea of doing a mid 20s video photo shoot or short film to play on the television at the venue. I love the cliffhanger at the end because I just want to see MORE! I can’t wait to see the Final Cut of the party of the year! ☺️
I’m planning my 35th birthday party right now, and you walking through things you thought of is so helpful! Thinking of what is playing on the tv before hand is something I would have overlooked. And I also love how you walk through the space with a vision. So helpful!
this is like the first party in a long time you haven’t had in your home! So excitingggg! I love roaring 20s theme events! This is gonna be so amazing✨
Ok, I wasn’t seeing your vision at first, but now I do. I’m rocking with it! I really should have given you more credit! I genuinely thought the new content would feel staged, but it’s still natural and true to you.
I’m in a cover band, and bands def don’t play the whole time. It’s nearly impossible. Lol But you wouldn’t have to have a separate DJ… The bandleader could just have a playlist of theme appropriate songs they play in between sets (phone hook up) Man I wish my band could play your party! We are so good! (But we live in Lubbock) I do recommend Emerald City band! They are amazing .
I was just telling a friend of mine I want this theme for my 30th, but I could never have it be as lit as this 😂 it was just an idea considering 1930 was "the great depression" and people act like exiting your 20s is the end of the world, lol. But I'm so here for this, I love the roaring 20s 💙
For outfit inspiration have guest look at the clothing Lena Horne, Billi Holiday, Nat King Cole, Harry Bellafonte, Ray Charles, Josephine Baker, Dorothy Dandridge, and Sammy Davis Jr, and Red Fox just to name a few. Look into the dress of the Harlem Clubs. I know the Cotton Club was famous
Make the bts video footage of the photoshoot vintage style too. In black and white of course but with the look and feel of a 20s film, silent movie kinda sped up with the quirky movements. Hopefully that makes sense. If you ever looked at a 1920s film you’ll know lol
Loving the content switch!! It gives an elevated feel ❤ I can't wait to see another iconic party. One day I to shall be at the level of extra goodness ❤❤❤❤😊
Raven, this Gatsby theme Birthday Party is gonna be epic! 🥳🎉 From the food to the decor and the outfits, I can picture all the glamour already. I like the venue, it’s perfect! Your mom’s expertise in the culinary world was soo helpful. Love your makeup in this video and your mom looks beautiful! ❤❤❤
Your mom has a beautiful house, also! I see where you get your creativity from, Raven! I really love the relationship you have with your mom!😊😊 Great party planning!
Hi Raven! I’m so excited for your 30th birthday party. I have hosted quite a few events over the years. Nearly every venue required a food and beverage minimum. I don’t know if Chef Toni or the concierge mentioned this. One way to finalize your menu would be to have a Tasting of the items that you are considering for your party. At the last major event, I invited a few other people to sample the items as well. That process helped tremendously in choosing the menu items. Just a thought!
