omg
great idea
i think that u should call them personally
and tell those people to tell others
u tell three
those each tell three ppl
and before u no it, u will have 500!

for inviting people because you have to do 500 people, facebook or email would be the most effective way and you could easily keep it a secret from your friend that way. food, hopefully the club already has that kind of things but make sure your best friends parents know about the party so they can help financially, i doubt youd want to pay for the expenses of that many people haha

that sounds like a pretty big project. I hope you can pull it off and it goes great BC that will be a great life skill that will help you in the futere if you go into promotions and even planning.

AS far as specific help tho, I'm not sure I can only only think of two things right off the top of my head 1: if you invite people- especially guys from 3 different schools, they might end up fighting so I'm not sure if i would 0 on that note you do have to think about even security to keep people from getting out of control.
2: If you used FB wouldn't she find out Instantly? I assume she has FB too and most of the same friends?... you could sit up for 2 days typing - or copy & pasting your message to each of 500 people using that private mail thing on the left side... unless it allows for multiple recipients idk?

How much time do you have?
do you already know who all her friends were from he previous schools? you could have her go through the schools's year boox and pick her favorite and least favorite people, but that might tip her off.
An even this big is better suited for a 16th birthday ("sweet sixteen"?) - if you decide to make it for her sixteenth birthday instead that would give you a year to figure out who to invite, and save up money for it.

As in all things, advance planning is a ************, the more advance planing you have the better it will be.

if someone asked me to name 500 best friends I couldn't even name 50.
I just had an idea tho, ask her her 2 or 3 favorite friends from each school, discreetly in some convoluted conversation designed not to let her know why you're asking, and then secretly meet with them friends to develop guest list and ask for their input on all the other ideas you need.

As for a gift registry??? is she pregnant? getting married?? idk how important that is.. but you could just take her window shopping at the mall and take note of everything she says she likes.

Don't forget about security... do whatever you have to do to hire some bouncers to search guys at the door for weapons and I don't mean some tough looking guys from school, I mean professional ones. Go to some real adult clubs and talk to the bouncers at the doors and tell them you're planning this party and ask them if they would help you plan security and how much they would charge.

Once you pick 1 or 2 that you like and trust, they will need to look at the venue to decide how many you'll need - and they know which guys they like to work with so defer to their judgment.

I'm sorry to be bringing you these kind of thoughts for what should be a happy time, but in todays world you have to think about these issues. plus if the cops come by, seeing that you have security professionally handled will put them at ease and they'll respect you more and could mean the difference between them shutting you down or not. It will also make any parents fell more at ease, not to mention some municipalities require a certain number of security personnel for events above a certain number of people.... plus this would make you a better event planner for the future.

Good luck
