Chidi and Chi’s Roaring 40’s Birthday Soiree
A Roaring 40's Birthday Bash for Chidi & Chi: A Night to Remember!
I recently had the pleasure of capturing a truly special celebration—Chidi and Chi’s 40th birthday party, which took place at a stunning venue in the heart of Manhattan. The event was nothing short of spectacular, with every detail thoughtfully planned to transport guests back to the glamorous Roaring 20’s. From the fabulous fashion to the vibrant energy, it was a night that radiated style, elegance, and fun, and I’m excited to share all the incredible moments from this unforgettable event.
The Roaring 20’s Theme: An Evening of Glamour and Elegance
As soon as I arrived at the venue, I could feel the magic of the era come to life. The dress code was strictly 1920’s glamour, and everyone truly embraced the theme. Guests were decked out in fabulous flapper dresses, sharp tuxedos, feathered headbands, and polished suits, channeling the iconic look of the Jazz Age. The atmosphere was electric, with each person contributing to the event’s timeless, vintage charm.
A Night Filled with Fun & Entertainment
The party featured an array of entertainment that kept everyone engaged and energized throughout the night. Guests played games where they guessed which twin, Chidi or Chi, was most likely to do certain things—an entertaining way to test how well they knew the birthday twins!
There was also a lively dance-off, where dancers taught everyone some of the most popular dances from the 1920’s, like the Charleston. It was a great way to get everyone moving and laughing together.

Adding to the atmosphere, a talented band consisting of an upright bass player, a pianist, and a singer provided the perfect live music that set the tone for the evening. The band’s jazzy melodies seamlessly blended with the modern beats of the DJ, ensuring there was music for every mood and moment, whether you wanted to swing dance or just enjoy the vibe.
Decadent Desserts & Decor
The food was as fabulous as the fashion! Guests were treated to an exquisite dinner, with flavorful dishes that had everyone talking. But it was the desserts that stole the show. Three beautiful, artistically designed cakes were displayed, each more intricate and breathtaking than the last. The cakes were perfectly paired with a delightful assortment of mini desserts that were almost too beautiful to eat—almost! These little treats not only looked gorgeous but tasted just as divine.
The decor of this 1920s-themed birthday party was a true homage to the glamour and sophistication of the era.
A Celebration to Remember
Chidi and Chi were the true stars of the evening, and their connection was felt by everyone who attended. The warmth and love between the two were evident throughout the night, from the heartfelt speeches to the fun-filled games and dances. The energy in the room was contagious, and it was clear that this was an event full of friends and family who had come together to celebrate two incredible people.
As the night came to a close, the dance floor was still packed, and the smiles were endless. The Roaring 20’s theme was a perfect backdrop for this milestone birthday celebration, blending nostalgia with modern flair. It was an evening that was both visually stunning and emotionally meaningful, and I’m so grateful to have been part of it.

As an event photographer and videographer, my goal is to not only document moments but to tell a story—and this event was full of unforgettable moments.
