Ideas for my 16th birthday party?

Question

This summer I am going to have my 16th birthday party at my house. There is going to be 10 friends, 4 aunts and uncles, 3 cousins and 2 grandmas. Plus me and my family, that is 23 people. I need ideas for food, and what to do once we get there.

Answer 1

i agree that it might be easier to pick a theme and find food that relates to the theme. As for things to do you could hire a DJ and dance (that's always a hit), play boardgames or if you have a pool and its nice go swimming, i would suggest a theme though because you could always make games that relate to the theme. Some theme suggests are travel(pick your favorite city) movies, Disney (like Cinderella) or your favorite activities. You could even have a theme all about you and have different activities that show your favorite things in life like hobbies, favorite food, favorite game etc.

Answer 2

You could have a themed party, watch a good movie a funny movie and play fun games

Answer 3

you need chips dip ice cream punch and barbeque and a nice cake

Answer 4

what type of family is yours? fun loving? fast food can be combined with homemade too. You can make finger sandwiches of many kind vegetarian style like mint chutney, cucumber, tomato like the english do. You can have store bought banana chips instead of potato. You can make potato salad which is very cheap but filling and so delicious dont forget easy to make. You can leave a huge bowl of salad with lettuce,tomatoes onion  canned chick peas carrots, walnuts broken into small pieces ofcourse cucumber, caranberries or raisins green or black olives, canned artichokes with home made dressing of olive oil lemon juice mustard pepper and salt. You can mix and match. there is no hard and fast rules for a salad. It's cheaper and remeber summer will be very hot depending on where you live. You can add crutons at the last minute. Make plently of lemonade to cut cost besides the other soft drinks.Desert could be fruits of the season cut up and mixed like pineapple, banana apples and oranges  add lemon juice to preserve color. Dont forget strawberries and may be some other berries. You can add pudding mix of any flavour to add to the taste. I used pistachio ones and it was a hit! Best of luck and sweet 16! birthday.
