Live experience platform Pairr, co-founded by Tinsley Merrill, teamed up with the incredible Dallas balloon shop, Lushra, for a Galentine’s Pop-Up. Over two days, plus a VIP evening, 38 influencers stopped by the party store in Fair Park to post with several brand activations, including Topo Chico’s love wall, Lushra’s party swing, Bumble BFF’s balloon arch, Brite Beauty’s glitter station and a flower wall from Rent My Wardrobe.

Guests were treated to Topo Chico cranberry and grapefruit pink mocktails, Baldo’s matcha affogatos, and Miracle Milkookies. For the VIPs, a Bubble Tap trailer served rose, red wine and champagne on tap. Alto‘s “Heart Car” also made an appearance. VIP tickets sold out quickly with 100 attendees, along with over 200 guests that popped in on Friday and Saturday for their photo opportunities.

On Thursday, VIP highlights included a Q&A with Lynlee Poston (Gal About Town) and Brooke Burnett (One Small Blonde) about dating in your 30s. The two friends opened up about how they became BFFs after dating the same guy, as well as topics like ghosting, making the first move, and go-to wedding dates when you don’t have a significant other.
