Awesome party

The invitation instructed guests to wear all white, with the note that "protective gear" would be provided. At the event, guests could don white coats to prevent paint from splashing on their outfits.

Decals on the floor of the museum mimicked a bike trail, which guided guests from the theater to the party space.

The Milstein Hall of Ocean Life served as the site of Portlandia's season three premiere party, which saw 580 guests.

The event's central installation was a 5½- by 5½-foot block of ice containing a frozen bike.

Created by Twig Terrariums, the centerpieces for the highboy tables portrayed Portlandian's daily activities such as practicing yoga, rock climbing, and playing on the swing set.

As a playful nod to Portland's many coffee shops, one sculpture had mugs and tea pots frozen in ice.

To depict a frozen record store, a custom Portlandia CD was enclosed in a block of ice.
