A little Southern Comfort asked:


Hi Everyone! Well in a few weeks I am throwing my husband a SURPRISE 30th Birthday Party! I have rented out a room at a local restaurant that is beautiful.
The party planner for the restaurant said I can come in and decorate the day of the party. Well I’m really excited, and I really want to decorate. Now, I don’t want to be too tacky and I want to be classy yet fun and not overwhelming. My husband doesn’t really have a favorite color. He wears a lot of blues, whites, greens, and reds and occasionally in the summers he’ll wear light blue and pale yellow. He always wears khaki pants/shorts so I don’t really know his favorite color. He always says “I don’t really have one.”
So I can’t use his favorite color as a color theme to decorate because he doesn’t have one. I have to go off what colors men use most and possibly matching up with the restaurant’s themes? So what should I use to decorate, balloons, what else?

Now he is Latino (From Mexico to be exact) and there will be an awesome blend of people there. We’ll have about 30-40 people there and about 1/2 Latinos and the other 1/2 Americans (Non Latinos), so maybe that could help with a color scheme or something?
Also I will post some pictures of the room I’m renting to help maybe pick a good color scheme.
So here are the links of the room and the restaurant so you can get a feel of what their colors are if that make a different. The first two pictures are of the room I’m renting and the rest are of the restaurant in general.

Also should I have his cake match in color?
Here is a pick of the cake I am ordering, but should I change it to the colors of the party???
