Milania Giudice's College Acceptance "Bed Party" Will Make Your Jaw Drop (PICS)
Teresa Giudice’s daughter is headed to the University of Tampa, and her bedroom was decked out in over-the-top fashion to celebrate.
Over the past few years, The Real Housewives of New Jersey parents have celebrated their kids' college acceptances with epic "bed parties," as they're called, with bedrooms decked out in their school's colors. From Teresa Giudice and Joe Giudice's daughter Gabriella Giudice's University of Michigan acceptance to Melissa and Joe Gorga's daughter Antonia celebrating her future at the University of Delaware, the decorations, merch, and various snacks and treats are always a feast for the eyes.
Now — believe it or not — Milania Giudice is gearing up to leave the New Jersey nest, and her family was sure to honor her forthcoming departure with an incredible bed party. The third-oldest Giudice daughter is heading to the University of Tampa for the upcoming fall 2024 semester, and she received the most epic celebration you can imagine.
"[T]hank you to everyone who made Milania's bed party so special," Milania's older sister, Gia, wrote over a May 15 Instagram Story that showed off the details of the spectacle.
In the snapshot, we saw how the RHONJ kid's bedroom was completely transformed with the University of Tampa's red, black, white, and gray colors, with a UT quilt laid over Milania's bed, T-shirts, custom sneakers, and balloons and balloon collages everywhere in the room. Additionally, we spotted white blocks with "T-A-M-P-A" written on them and a large "T" filled with lightbulbs, presumably paired with a "U" elsewhere in the room to light up the space.

In a closer shot taken by the youngest of the Giudice brood, Audriana, Milania proudly posed on her bed in a red cropped jersey and black pants with a "UT" baseball cap. In the close-up photo, we also saw more clothing items and plenty of delicious snacks in the school's red and black colors.
More photos from both Gia and mom Teresa revealed all the delicious treats made for Milania in the school's colors, like chocolate and sprinkle-covered pretzels, iced cookies, gummies, and more.
Milania's cake from Giudice family favorite Palermo Bakery also looked incredible, with white icing, white, black, and red sprinkles, and large "UT" letters in front.
More photos from the bed party showed the merchandise Milania received ahead of her departure, including printed pillows, a bag, hats, and a tray.
Milania was also gifted a beautiful white frame filled with red and black rose designs that featured a glass front with "UT" letters — ideal dorm room decor.
Moreover, proud mom Teresa was sure to grab a photo of all her four daughters with Milania on her bed, smiling from ear to ear in support of their sister.
Congratulations, Milania!
Inside Milania Giudice's decision to go to the University of Tampa
While filling in for her mom as a co-host on the March 13 episode of Namaste B$tches, Milania revealed her reasoning for choosing to travel to the Sunshine State for school.
"Honestly, I have grown so much to hate the cold. I'm so over the cold weather," the New Jersey native told co-host Melissa Pfeister. "I also didn't do the SAT, I didn't do the test. I am not a test taker, I do not like taking tests, I hate taking tests. And I knew I had good grades, so I was like, 'I'm just going to put in schools that go test-optional.' I knew I want warm weather, because I'm so over the cold. I just want[ed] to be close to a beach."
The choice was also influenced by the school's proximity to her father, Joe, who's been living in Nassau, Bahamas.
"I really thought about it, like, 'Wait a minute. Florida is 30 minutes away from my dad on a plane. That's so amazing,'" she added. "So, whenever I have a few days off from class or something, I'll go see my dad. It's go[ing to] be so great."
She continued: "It sucks, because I feel like a lot of time has gone, and obviously I haven't had my dad, or like, a lot of time went missing that I should have had with him. So, now being closer to him, I'll have a lot more time with him, and it will be better."
