Sweet Sixteen? Or A Confused Mess?

Question

My friend is having her sweet sixteen over the summer holidays...but she has NO IDEA what do do for it...any ideas?? Not too pricey...and maybe something that we can use nice wethaer for ie swimming?? I was thinking about having a dressing up party..but then we'd have to think of a theme...im not suree...I was thinking about maybe changing it to a 6TH birthday partay..as in...musical statues and jelly and ice cream....so we can reminisce about the 90s. She wants to invite about 10 people, but she wants something different, because EVERY year we go bowling/swimming/shopping/BBQ and its GREAT but it gets tiresome...so any ideas??? Guys AND Dolls to be invited...and we're not sure about alcohol...

THANKS!! x x x

Answer 1

I really like he 90s party idea, play all 90s music, put on movies, dress like celebrities or the latest fads of the times try these ideas.

So how can you recreate the mood of the 90s with a decade party? First, take a walk down memory lane. It’s not important to capture everything about the 90s, which could be impossible. However, you should strive to capture elements of the 90s that were important to you and your guests. Were you in high school? Or were you out in the work a day world earning a living? These two different points of view can result in two completely different 90s parties.

Ask your guests to add to the atmosphere of the 90s party by coming dressed up in what they feel is essentially 90s era clothing. If you want a more corporate themed party tell them to dress up in business type clothes. If you want the party to be a grunge nirvana tell them to come in flannel and torn jeans.

If you are still having trouble visualizing what the 90s looked like go ahead and watch some quintessential 90s movies. Look at the style of clothing, the kind of computer equipment shown, what advertisers paid to movie spots. A good series of movies to look at are anything with Paulie Shore and The Wayne’s World movies.

Junk food is an excellent way to further the grunge 90s party. Go ahead and put out crackers with spray cheese on them or order from taco bell and make that your main meal. Guests will love it.

Answer 2

I think that the 90's theme is great, when you send out the invites it should say that they have to dress like they lived in the 90's!! And you can play 90's music, or an 80's theme would be great and ppl can dress punk rock and what not!!!
