Hey there,

I'm having a sweet sixteen party in a few weeks, and everything is all planned except games or activities and i could still use some ideas on other stuff if you have any good ones.

The theme: is black and white and i'm having everyone come dressed casual in that, also i'm going to have black lights and a strobe light so the white really glows. My dress is neon pink so it will glow in the black lights too and my vip girls are wearing white dresses, while the vip guys are wearing black buttondown shirts.

The venue: I rented out a building..or rather, the top of a building, there are 2 square type rooms, in one there will be dancing and a dj and the other is for the food, and then both rooms open onto a large patio type thing where there are a few tables set up with umbrellas over them and alot of open space where i guess more people could dance.

The guests: All the guests are 15-18 years old and there are about 150 of them. My parents are being amazing and not making me have chaperones :D.

The Decorations: The tables are covered in white/black layered table cloths, theres a projector and a big screen set up in there, but I'm at a complete loss at what to do with it :/ and of course the black & strobe lights. Also there will be black and white balloons that fall from the ceiling when i arrive and lots of black and white balloons every where else. I'm not really sure what else to do for decorating..:S

Food: So far, I'm thinking dark and whte chocolate dipped strawberries, my cake is white with black polka dots and stripes with tiny accents of neon pink, and chocolate dipped marshmellows.

Sheeze that was alot to write. What do you guys think of it? Any thing i should change or add that you can think of or games we could play? Should I put in more pink as accents or leave it mostly black and white? Also I dont know what I'm going to do for favors and prizes..ugh..planning parties is so much work. Please help!

  1. Leave it mostly black and white. Buy some funny sunglasses from a dollar store or something and use those as favors. Plus they're fun to wear through the night. It depends on how much you want to spend. Some parties i've been to have given out cool pajama pants... funny hats. There are companies that just sell party favors, you should check that out. As for your projector, you could have a slide show on it of you and your friends. You could have cookies that are white with white chocolate chips, and chocolate cookies with chocolate chips. Everyone loves cookies. You could have cool centerpieces of hot pink and white flowers floating in a glass bowl. On a black tablecloth it would look awesome. You could get a sign in board. Just get a sheet of foam posterboard and glue a few pictures on it, and attach some markers. All your friends can sign it, and you can keep it forever.

    You can also put dispoable cameras on each table and let your guests take pictures, and then collect them at the end of the night. You'll have some really funny ones! Games are a little bit tougher, but the DJ will probably know some. Also check online, there are lots of sites with party game suggestions. You party sounds like it's going to be great. Enjoy it...


  2. it sounds like you have it all figured out.as far as food i would do something more heavy.you do have to feed 150 people,and they dont want to eat strawberries the whole time,so cater in some wings or something.if u could find a tarp that looked like black and white tile floor that would be awesome.if u have a sitting area put on black and white movies!!also,as far as games,you could have guitar hero,ddr,rock band,i know they sound stupid but they keep people entertained.as well as spin the bottle or quizzes on how well people know you with prizes.hope i helped! have fun!!if u have friends there dont stress it will be great!!
