What are some good ideas for a surprise 18th birthday party?

Question

My best friend's boyfriend asked me to plan a surprise birthday party for her 18th birthday. Its not going to be that big of a party probably 10-15 people. My friend is really fun and crazy and loves to have a good time. It's going to be guys and girls so it can't be like a spa day or anything. I'm looking for a crazy and out of the box idea. I live close to the beach but don't know if that's a place that I would want to do the party. Something that will really make her surprised!! Please help me out guys I'm desperate!!

Answer 1

Have everyone bring their favorite pictures of your friend. Mabye get some from her parents. Have them on display when everyone gets there.

Answer 2

if you have a nice backyard, bring out some furniture and decorate the trees with like confetti and stuff like that. Cocktails are pretty nice and colourful.

Simple finger food s good to keep your guests satiated, nachos, fried calamari, cocktail sausages.

If you like crazy,hmmm what about getting out an inflatable pool and have some oil or mud wrestling?

Answer 3

I think "kidnapping" is always good for a surprise.  Have her parents or boyfriend say they're taking her somewhere (dinner, wherever she would normally go)...but then go somewhere unexpected.  I think it would be fun to go bowling if you've got a place that does the cool music and lights shows.

Another idea my friends have done:  Put an envelope with a clue to go somewhere ... and then have a few to lead her to a place where everyone can be hiding ... then continue the scavenger hunt together.
