Sweet 16 Party Ideas?!


Question:

Sweet 16 Party Ideas?

Ok people, I really need you to come through for me on this one. My sweet 16 is in less than a month. I want to have a party, there would be between 10-15 kids invited (boys and girls, of course) Pretty low budget, parental supervision. Not at my house, its too small.
I mainly want it to be memorable. Any theme ideas? I heard of a mafia one, hahaha that would be grand. Murder mystery? Places to have it? Resturant? I think a hall would be a bit much for such a small crowd. Hotel party? No lula party, I want it to be funny if anything.
I really need your advice!!!
Thank you in advance


Answers:
Defentily have it at a resturaunt or something. Somethin enjoyable for everyone there adults and all. You could always do some kind of theme that before the party you gt together with all the friends coming and choose names and whichever name you get for the party you have to dress and act like them. That would be quite funny to watch eachother try to be eachother. Just a thought. Happy early birthday btw.

Like most girls in their early teens I have been dreaming about my Sweet 16 party for a while now. Well, I finally decided exactly what I'm going to do! My Sweet 16 falls on a Wednesday, so the Friday after I'm going to have some of my friends over (about 4-6) and we're going to do spa treatments (manicures, pedicures, facials). We're also going to eat Homemade Hamburgers and French Fries and have Salad out if they want to eat healthy. We'll watch some movies that I've liked throughout my life (Like Cinderella, Freaky Friday, ect.) and when there's not a movie playing we'll have some of my favorite music on (stuff I used to like when I was younger too). And we'll stay up late and have loads of fun. Then the next day (saturday) we'll sleep late since we'll probably be up till about 2AM the night before!!! Then when we've all woken up and gotten dressed we'll go shopping and get one really cool/not too expensive outfit. (My mom will have talked to their parents and told them to give the girls about $50 for a dress and jewelry.) Then we'll go back to my house and get ready. That night I'm going to have my Sweet 16 Birthday Dinner. (Birthday Dinners are a really big deal in my family!) The friends I invited the night before along with my family and some other special people in my life will be there (About 12 people will fit around the table). We'll have this at my church (In the conference room). We'll eat and Rolls, Salad, Seafood Fettuccini Alfredo, and Birthday cake with vanilla Ice cream (See decorations for details). Then we'll just chat till everyone decides to go home. Invitations- For the friends that are sleeping over I'll get some Teal cardstock at an office supply store. Then I'll type up something like... You're Invited to my Sweet 16! It will be on (date) at (time). Please check with your parents and e-mail me at (My e-mail here) or call me on my cell (Cell number here) to R.S.V.P and get some additional details! Then I'll list a few things I need them to bring for the Spa Treatments and what they need to bring to wear to the dinner. The fonts that would look good are (in Microsoft Word) CAC Champagne, Lucida Calligraphy, and Script MT Bold. I'll make the text Black For the other people I want to come to the dinner I'll get some Black cardstock and type up something like this...You are Cordially Invited to Miss (my Name here)'s Sweet 16 Birthday Dinner It will be held on (date) at (time) at (location). Please R.S.V.P. to (E-mail) by (2 weeks before party) Then at the bottom I'll get a really good picture of me and put it in black and white and photocopy it and find a good quote about growing up. (Try firehotquotes.com) I'll use the same font in White. Decorations- For the girls only part I'll get pink and teal streamers, twist them together. and hang them around the room. I'll also get balloons in those two colors plus clear ones and metallic silver ones and have those everywhere too. I'll make a banner that is Hot Pink and Metallic Silver that says (My name)'s Sweet Sixteen. I'll get a cheap plastic white tablecloth and put glitter on it and serve dinner and breakfast on transparent pink plastic plates. For the dinner part I'll do the same thing but the colors will be Metallic silver, White, Black, Red and Metallic Gold. I'll get a huge white tablecloth and some black fabric to use as a runner for the table. For the centerpiece I'll get either Red roses or Red carnations and put them in a clear glass vase. We'll serve dinner on clear plastic plates, cups, flatware, ect. that we'll get at a party supply store. My cake will be red velvet cake with white icing and black lettering. It will have part of the quote that was on the invitations.

AT A RESTAURANT SOUND A GOOD PLACE TO HAVE THE PARTY

Hotel?Not! Maybe Chuck E Cheese.
Seriously a party at a roller skating rink is a good idea.

resturant

Celebrate a sixteenth birthday with this coming-out party. Make it sweet, not to sophisticated.

Cover table in pink cloth; top with pink net, gather each corner with a red ribbon bow. Tuck in roses. Accordian fold napkins as fans and tuck in roses.

Menu: Strawberry Ice Cream, Heart Shaped Sandwiches, Chips, pretzels, Pink-frosted cupcakes,covered with coconut ( Or, make a big cake, surround with a garland of roses, top it with a doll whose dress is identical with that of the guest of honor, Miss Sweet Sixteen.

As soon as guests arrive greet them with a full punch bowl, soft background music.

go to the park
no matter what (rain snow earth quake fire)
this time of year you might not have to pay for a pavilion
buy some steaks get some shrimp
I guess no beer or wine
start a big fire have game like who can stand in the fire longest
who can boil water with just using there hand
who can caught a flaming marsh mellow with there hands
bobbing for hot dog while they are still cooking
but make sure the bath rooms haven't been closed for the year yet and just in case take some extra paper just in case

I can tell you 2 fun games to play
1. have girls line up in a single line and boys in another, the first girl in line has to put on a boys tank top and boys briefs and the first boy has to put on a bra and girls panties and they run up to a certain spot and then run back remove the things and pass them to next person in line and so on and see who wins girls or boys. every one had a big laugh at the sweet 16 party I went to....

2. this one you need about 20.00 dollers or so in cash, you fill a plastic tub or something with shaveing cream and hide one doller bills in the shaveing cream and a five doller bill then you blind fold someone and with out useing any hands they bob in the shaveing cream, one try per person for a the money.teens will do just about anything for money.

Well every party has to have music. Mabe pick out some cool songs that make people want to dance. Like "Tell Me When to Go" by E 40. You alo have got to have spinach dip and salsa. Dont forget those cool red, plastic cups, (you cannot have a party without them)lol.

every thing in pink
