Turning 16 years old is arguably one of the most important birthday's you will ever celebrate. There is a load of pressure that is on the person throwing the party and mounds of anticipation from the birthday boy or girl. Needless to say, it is a difficult task to pull off well. This article will hopefully provide some great ideas for your party planning and spark some of your own creative juices to plan the best sweet 16 birthday party ever.
Mardi Gras Style- What teenager hasn't seen the Mardi Gras celebration on TV and wished they could be there. It is one of the biggest parties the U.S. celebrates. Invitations are the first glimpse guests will see of your party planning labors. Get creative and include Mardi Gras beads or a masquerade mask with your invite. Organize a mini parade for your guests during the celebration. Include creole food and traditional costumes as much as you can. Make the event the biggest party you've ever seen and your guests will defiantly be amazed.
Spa- If you are planning for a 16 year old girls party the focus should be about pampering. Turn your back yard of living room into a room of relaxation. Renting a spa is always an option, however the price is not optional and is usually pretty expensive. Creating an out door spa with fountains and flowers may be an easier alternative. Recruit some helpers to give the gust of honor and her invites facials, manicures and whatever else they are in the mood for. It is just as easy to move the party inside if weather is a problem outdoors. Be sure to include lots of pampering favors such as:
- Nail Polish
- Facial Scrub
- Moisturizer
- Hair Treatment
Sometimes a salon will carry trial sized products and will allow you to buy them. Go to a local salon and explain your plans and ask if they can help. Serve light refreshments with the treatments.
Hollywood Royalty- We've all seen a Hollywood award show with the red carpet and stunning gowns. If you are like me then you've also wished you could get all dressed up and attend an event like that. A sweet 16 party is the perfect occasion to create this kind of atmosphere. Make sure your guests know to dress in formal wear and that there will be an evening of dancing, entertaining and food. You'll need a venue large enough to entertain a crowd and several different activities. Send the guest of honor out early to get their hair done and make sure they are all dressed up. Start the evening off with a grand entrance of your guests. Announce their names and who they are seen with as if they were royalty. You may also want to ask a local dance group to do a number welcoming your guest of honor. Make sure their entrance is unique and special. A night of food, dancing and entertainment will be a hit with everyone.
The one thing every party has in common no matter what the theme is, it's going to need the essentials. Tableware, balloons, streamers and lots more should be part of any party. Don't neglect to include these details when planning your perfect sweet 16 event.
