Sweet 16 Help !?!
Answers: My friend and I are having our party's together and i have about 6 months but i need to start planning now! Our theme of our party is MOULIN ROUGE. If anyone has any ideas im open to anything.
Tell guests to dress in a stylish Paris fashion.
Can-Can dancers are a great costume idea for the ladies, while the men can don tails and top hats.
Monocles and handlebar moustaches would be a nice touch.
Decorations
Decorate the house in rich, vibrant colours.
Make your own stage lights by cutting paper plates in half and folding curves in them.
Paint them gold for added effect and line them on the floor along the walls.
Use Christmas lights to set behind the plates, or you could even use torches and make larger stage lights. Avoid using candles, as this wouldn’t be safe.
You can add a theatrical touch to windows and doorways by making curtains of deep red cloth. Tie them back with yellow sashes for a stage curtain feel.
Food Suggestions
Make a bright green punch using green liqueurs to serve as Absinthe.
Serve rich luscious pastries like cakes and croissants. Make cupcakes and decorate them with thick dollops of cream and cherries.
Give sausages a fun touch by making a fake cigar box to serve them in and have a friend walk about serving them like the cigarette girls of old.
maybe you could get some ideas from the movie...like the outfits or decorations
To be honest I utterly hate sweet 16's for girls [usually it's when girls get the brattiest]. But if you must... go to some big ball room... and then after everyone is tired, rent some REALLY big screen and watch Moulin Rouge.
GREAT movie.....and awesome idea for the party.....all i can say is watch the movie together with your friend and you guys pick out your favorite parts and decorate and dress accordingly to that scene.....happy 16th !!
