Laura and Jesse, what a wonderful party!! Whatever you two do, you do it well!! Thank you so very much for including us!! You are an incredible couple and should be so proud of your home, travels, thrifting and so much more! Many blessings for the things to come☆
LAURA I ❤️ LOVE YOUR TIKI PARTY IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME 👌 ALL YOUR COLLECTION PIECES WERE BEAUTIFUL AND YOUR FOOD ALL LOOKED DELICIOUS EVERYONE WAS ENJOYING THEMSELVES EVEN LORENZO😻LAURA THANKS FOR SHARING WITH US 🥰 🍉🥭🍍🥥🍇🥝🥥🛖🌺🌸💐🥰♥️🦋🦋🦋🌻🌻🌻🐝
Beautiful transformation and preparation for your Tiki party. SUGGESTION FOR INSECT FREE PARTY: Next year, purchase several large multi packages of Irish Spring soap. Cut the soap bars into chunks and spread soap chucks the throughout your deck, breezeway, yard, etc. to get rid of the insects. It really works to have a bug free party.
Thanks for the UA-cam invite, what a great event. so much planning and presentation is everything. Yep, the next day cleanup (not as much fun) , but well worth the effort.
Wow! Healthy food, fun decorations, fun to collect and anticipate, and Jesse's Tiki Taxi w sign & hula girl made something already good exceptional! Great memories for good, clean family fun! If you live close enough to enjoy family please do so for those of us so scattered we can't gather. Well done, you guys r a blessing to your family!!
Laura, that was awesome! I’ve been so looking forward to your Tiki party, just to see your whole collection of thrifted finds. You did an outstanding job with everything! Thanks for bringing us along. It was fun watching. 👁👁✌️🌸 🌺🍍
Wow! That was perfect! Your sense of decorating is amazing. What fun for everyone. And that quick shot of your "after" breezeway was gorgeous. You are living the life!
You had a great Tiki party.🎊 I did see you collect all the great pieces that was fun to see. I loved how everything fell into place, family chipped in to help and you all had a beautiful evening to enjoy. Next year how about cool fire twirling guys , Aloha
You are living your dream! Honey, you are making lit look good, So glad to experience this, and support your ever growing success. Bring on the next finds. Thanks Laura, Jesse, and Lorenzo, had a sweet time at your special event.
Laying in bed binging on Mrs. CALDWELL'S CONTENT AGAIN!!!! I went to hunt & gather in MPLS last weekend because you prompted me to do so and spent like 5 hours there. You're the best, lady!:) If you ever come back to Mpls let me know! I grew up in a family of artists and antique dealers and I have some seriously sweet "secret" thrifting spots and I can send ya the details! Anyhoo...you certainly make my coffee time much more enjoyable and inspired with your wonderful energy!!! Love, Samahra❤️🙏
AMAZING party! Right up there with food on a cruise!! You and Jessie did it right. Thank you for having us as virtual attendees to your party. Your energy makes me jealous now that I'm 70. Keep up that amazing energy as long as you can!
How exciting for you!!! All of your treasures looked fabulous 🥂! I have a piano in my home also and it’s always a “go-to” for little ones! I’m looking forward to viewing your next 🎉. Mahalo and aloha 🌺
Oh Laura. Thank you for bringing us to the party after watching you thrift these items. Love. Can't wait for little Italy. I loved all details...from the extra shirts...to the taxi. Perfecto 🥰😄
Your party turned out so beautiful with all your thrifty finds! The fruit and nuts really added color to the wood bowls and trays along with the flowers in the vases. I admired the mask you put in the tropical wreath to jazz it up. And I loved the Tiki Taxi! What a creative idea! Thank you for sharing the prep and part of the party with us!
Really awesome! But I do hope that you stored the food in a refrigerator overnight. The mother in me just has to tell you that. LOL great job though guys!
That giant green mug $32 would make a good planter for a bromeliad. It would give the floral effect, but not will the way within a couple weeks. I love your tiki madness! I am also a slow accumulator for projects.
You are such a warm bright loving spirit in the world right now!So glad I found you.Your Tiki party was fun and so cool to see come together.I loved seeing the pieces in use.You definitely have a flare with decor.I just loved seeing friends and family enjoying together.Bravo!!!Also kudos to those who helped and to your hubby for being so amazing through it all.Aloha beautiful girl.Ill be watching.Thank you!💛💚🧡🍍🌺
I have been with you since 2020 and I'm glad to see your Tiki Party materialize. Everything was just so great , a lot bn of fun and a lot of work but you did it! Great job and it looks like Jesse shared your enthusiasm.
Loved your Tiki Party! What a great and wonderful idea for your family! Loved what you did with everything and the decorating was amazing! It literally looked like you spent a lot more on the docor! Also loved going through the process (at least some of it) purchasing your beautiful items. And the Tiki Taxi, oh my goodness, that was above and beyond! Good job you guys!
That was precious. I'm only been following your channel for about a month but I have seen so many of your Tiki party purchases from older videos. Was fun to see the party🥰
Hello Laura, Thank you for your videos. Since watching many interests and connections have come up for me. In my late 50's reconnecting to what I love after so many years is thrilling. First off, I was raised in Oregon. Your adventures around the state is heartwarming. Next, saving beautiful craftmanship and artistry from the landfill. Yesterday I practice your tips at Goodwill. Picking up what looks real to find it light. Seeing a piece that again, looked like real craftmanship to turn it over and find "Pier One Imports". Amongst all the stuff was a few pieces of Italian pottery. I've also love the flowery china from England and found several lovely pieces. However, as a nomad, I'll be focusing on Jewelry. Your tips about going to curated stores, finding groups on Facebook, and such are appreciated.----I also flipped my wardrobe as I found styles and colors that express outwardly what I feel inwardly. Looking forward to continuing to learn and share your enthusiasm. Enjoy!
What an epic party, Laura! You are most definitely the hostess with the mostest!! Your attention to detail is amazing & Jesse’s tiki taxi was awesome. It looks like a good time was had by all & I can’t wait to see how your tiki collection will continue to grow in the upcoming years. Thank you for sharing ❤
Your party was a great tiki experience! It reminded me of years ago when I won a state of the art first class trip to Hawaii for my humanity endeavors! It was the best trip ever so thanks for doing such a lovely party with all of your great tiki findings over the past few years:) What a success..I have an idea for your next one that I would like to share before your next one. 🌺
Well, you’ve converted me! I went thrift store shopping yesterday and found three schoolhouse style chairs for $5.99 each! I googled it and they go for $150 and up. I’ve been looking for new dining chairs and I’m in awe… now just for 3 more lol Thank you for smashing the stigma of thrift store shopping by making us aware of the beautiful finds you’ve discovered.
Aloha! Thrifting some beautiful seashells could add an organic element to your Tiki decor and could be beautiful year round on display too. Inexpensive seashell and wooden necklaces could be fun party favors or just laid draped out in the voids as decor. Fishing nets, glass floats, paper umbrellas as picks...you got my creative ideas flowing :) Looks like you all had a great time!
SO COOL!.....Wonderful Party!.....Laura you have inspired me!......As a retired Montessori teacher, I have saved all my TiKi wood from when I taught on Hawaii.
Hi Laura. Thankyou for sharing your Tikki party with us. I didn't know what a Tikki party was and now I do thanks to you. I love your colourful top you are wearing.
Funny you mention that because 15 years ago my dad considered buying an event center space and I would have been in charge of planning parties (he’d take care of the funerals 😂) In another life it would have been a dream job.
Yay! We finally got to our first tiki party. What great decor and a dream that you have been so patiently waiting for. Thanks for inviting us in. Then enjoying your party without filming. I loved Jessie’s Tiki Taxi. Can wait to see next year’s party!!!❤
You can get tiki torches and put citronella oil in them and it will help tremendously with the mosquitoes. Use caution when displaying open flames of course. Also, if you get pots and grow lemon bolm and lemongrass in them. They say that helps as well
I've never been to Hawaii or even heard of a Tiki party till now. I'm so impressed and want to have one too! Everything looked absolutely beautiful. I wish I had friends like you and your lovely family. I have to say though, I think I was the most impressed by the Tiki Taxi, it was just the right amount of over the top cheesiness I absolutely love! Props to you both for hosting such an amazing and memorable time for everyone! 🌺🌴🥥🚕
Oh my gosh I love the committment to the theme, I so do the same thing with my parties BUT you took it over the top, with the Tiki Taxi I Love love it! So awesome!
This was wonderful, Laura and Jesse! So filled with family (I'd love to meet them! You two are such special members, would love to meet the loving "nest" you came from!) and friends! However, I totally respect yours and their privacy. Thanks for including your KITTY at the end! God bless you! Patricia
Laura, you share your enthusiasm and positive energy with all your viewers. It is truly appreciated. Your Tiki Party was a beautiful gathering of your family and friends. You and Jesse are great hosts!
OMG. This is the most awesome party I have ever seen. I love all your wood stuff. I would love to do that but just don't have space to store it😊 great video
It was amazing. Thank you for bringing us along. Everything looked beautiful and the food looked delicious. I would want to go inside if someone pulled my tail too. Poor baby.
With all the vintage teak wood pieces, it’s a literal teak-y party!
😆
@Stephanie Powers-Tanguay, you just won the Comments! Perfect!
Ha! That’s great! 😂

Jesse is the best with his ideas 😂🙌
Thanks for the UA-cam invite, what a great event. so much planning and presentation is everything. Yep, the next day cleanup (not as much fun) , but well worth the effort.

Looks like Lorenzo has been in the pineapple margaritas!😻
When u make fruit balls, scoop out remaining pulp, put in blender voila juice, strain. Drink k as is or use in ocktails
You guys thought of every detail! I love Jesse's tiki taxi! It was a long wait but well worth it. A hui hou.

Worth the wait and years of collecting! Love Jesse's taxi.
Mahalo for sharing with us! Adore the large green mcm vase‼️🙀 I thrifted a baby mug that matches & love it 💚💋
Laying in bed binging on Mrs. CALDWELL'S CONTENT AGAIN!!!! I went to hunt & gather in MPLS last weekend because you prompted me to do so and spent like 5 hours there.

It's so much fun to watch you. I admire your enthusiasm. Have fun and enjoy you family.
That giant green mug $32 would make a good planter for a bromeliad. It would give the floral effect, but not will the way within a couple weeks. I love your tiki madness! I am also a slow accumulator for projects.

I live in Astoria and I am convinced we live in the most beautiful state 💚 your party looks amazing 😁
It really is a beautiful place to live!!
I'm inspired now to use my collection of leaf platters. I've got to find a few more pieces but I have a lot of stuff already for a Moana themed party.
Oh my gosh I love the committment to the theme, I so do the same thing with my parties BUT you took it over the top, with the Tiki Taxi I Love love it! So awesome!
