Michael Simon/startraksphoto.comIt was a Mexican fiesta for Tiffani Thiessen's 40th birthday!
E! News has exclusively learned that the actress celebrated her special day on Saturday, Jan. 25, 2014, at the Viceroy Zihuantanejo, a luxury resort in Playa La Ropa, Guerrero, Mexico.
Thiessen was joined by her hubby Brady Smith, along with her White Collar costar Willie Garson, brother Schuyler Thiessen and his wife. The group was seen having so much fun and dancing the night away, that they even forgot to serve the birthday cake (no worries, cake was served the next morning).
To add to the cuteness, a 15-minute DVD was shown with taped messages from family, friends and past costars including Lindsay Price, Ian Ziering, Mark Paul Gosselaar and Elizabeth Berkley. Um, can you say Saved by the Bell reunion?!
The married couple seemed very overjoyed, happy and in love, E! News learns. Thiessen's hubby gifted her with a ring that she had borrowed for a wedding in Italy from her good friend Price. Brady remembered how much she liked it, so he bought it for her. Well done!
The night of the party, guests dined on some amazing dishes. Thiessen and her pals either enjoyed crayfish tails with lobster sauce in puff pastry or warm goat cheese salad served with pear dressing for an appetizer. The main dish consisted of either tenderloin served with three pepper Sauce, garnished with julienned vegetables and au gratin potatoes or sea bass filet with cilantro crust and adobo sauce accompanied by Mexican rice or shrimp with almond brandy sauce served with rice and sautéed spinach. For dessert, guests chose between chocolate fondant with macadamia ice cream or guave and passion fruit mousse.
Thiessen and her friends stayed at the luxury resort over the weekend and enjoyed a lot of beach sports, including paddleboarding. Tiffani and Brady also made sure to spend some alone time, and walked all over the town together to take in the city.
