SUPER SWEET 16 IF YOU`RE NOT FILTHY RICH!

Hey, my names cassie, and my sweet 16 is on feb 27th 06, and im pretty stoked about that. Im trying to plan a themed party, where me and my closest girlfriends are going to get makeovers and take a limo downtown to have dinner and a great time. I have the greatest of friends and i want this party to be just as great to them as for me. But of course money is always an issue. I want this to be memorable for this is my sweet 16!! (it only happens once a lifetime right!?) so even tips and ideas would be awesome to help save money. I dont need a big huge "look at me" birthday, just one i`ll remember. Even if that means shoppin for decor at the dollar giant. (hey the more retarded the more i`ll probably be amused by it )
Even without a limo , im sure i can pimp up a hot station wagon. :) I cant wait for my sweet 16, hopefully a party to remember .

Hi!
My name is vanessa. I live in ohio. I want to have a sweet 16 party that me and my friends will be able to remember! the only problem is that my family doesnt have any money to do anything. Both my parents are currently unemployed, and i was wondering if you might have some cheap fun ideas, that i can do, and will be remembered! because all of my friends for their sweet 16`s they rentaed a hall and everything. How there parents could afford it is amazing. And i just feel that my will be nowhere near as close to memeorable and fun as theirs. If you could help with some ideas,or anything, i`d really appriciate it! thanks! my email is:

Hey im having my sweet 16th party in a couple of weeks and im soo excited.
I have already got the basics of the party planned.
Im having a party in my backyard in our gazibo we have. Since it is going to be at night i am going to get fairy lights strung randomly all over the celing of the gazibo so we have a dimmed light source.From the back door of the house to the entrance of the gazibo im having tiki tources along the sides of the path joined together with more fairy lights. Out further in the yard im having tealights in glasses (to prevent accidents) on the floor to have a fairy tale type of effect. In the inside of the gazibo is going to be lined with chairs, drop sheets on the floor so no one has to stand on dirt/lawn, in the center of the gazibo strips of streamers stuck to the celing left loose so they hung to the floor. Balloons in my favourite colours left to float around on the floor as they like. A table in the corner with my stereo for music and food. We have a large plastic box which im going to put a black garbage bag in (stop leaks) filled with ice and drinks. On one of the walls im having a blank canvas with perment textures so people can sign and write comments.
For invitations i am going to go to a craft store and buy loads of beads and ribbions and make basic necklaces. On the necklaces are going to be a tag with all the info about the party like time and such, which they can just rip of and use them as normal necklaces. The colour of the beads they have to wear some thing visible to the party such as nail polish, hair ties,a shirt or what ever they choose so it will be more interesting to get ready for the party.
There is also so other stuff i have already planned but this is just the jist of it.

I am not rich and i dont have that kind of money to do my sweet16 that always been my dreams thnk you yolianne ramirez

I want to have a super sweet 16 like they do on TV. I mean my parents arent RICH RICH MONEY BAGS AND GOLD rich. I was hoping to have my party in like a hotel reception room and pimp it up, then paint my uncle`s car and get new interior, so it will seem like the ones on tv. But i want tips, and help to make it like that. I want it packed and everythinggg ;[

HELP!!!!

Hey girls - 16 is a big deal - but most families aren`t Hiltons and it isn`t really fair to put that kind of financial pressure on your folks. BUT - I also know most parents would do just about anything for their kids if they could - so I`d hit them up for their time and their creativity.

Can`t afford to rent a hall? See if you can`t get mom, dad, relatives, etc. To help deck you place out - whether it is a basement or a backyard, you can do a lot with white lights and coloured plates/glasses.

Get some relatives to volunteer to cook/cater and have cousins, etc. Serve the food. Get them to get dressed up and have them play the part of waiter/waitress, etc.

Get really creative with the drinks you serve. The grocery stores have awesome strawberry daiquiry/pina coloda mixes that you don`t need to put alcohol in. People are impressed with cool looking drinks - check the web for "mocktails" - I`m sure there will be a ton of ideas.

Spin some tunes - if you or a friend has an IPod, you have an entertainment system. Pick YOUR favourite songs and songs you know your friends will be excited to hear.

You can pick a theme and ask your friends to dress to the theme - could be formal, masquerade, hawaian/luau, etc. Whatever you do - keep the decor for the party the same.

Invites can be made on the PC - google images is a great source of photos and if you don` t have a colour printer, head to Kinko`s.

When you get everyone involved, it creates a lot of buzz - because people feel a part of it.

It is an idea - it is a LOT of work - but you will be SO tight with your family and helpers by the end of it, you`ll feel amazing.

Buy yourself a tiara...even if all you can afford is a dollar store one - you are a princess:)

Have fun.

OMG!!! My sweet 16 is an arabian nights theme!!!it`s so cool, but i`m having such a difficult time trying to find all the stuff for this. My sister and I have the same friends, and her 18th birthday is 2 weeks before my sweet 16. I need to have my party totally top hers, but I might nit be able to if I don`t have the right stuff. It would be really cool if I can a fire breather or a hanna tattoo person for cheap. Please ya`ll.....I need help. I`m not exactly known for my party`s, because I`ve never had a birthday party before. I`m one of those people who go big or go home, but that`s hard to do when you don`t have a lot of money. Please make this the best time of my life!!!!

Lovin you in advanced,
Brittney "Britters" Handerson

Wow, i love your idea of having a arabian nights theme party (maybe its because my room is arabian themed)
I would love to hear more about it.

Dear Secret,
I plan on hopefully gatting one big tent or 2-3 small one`s that are open and made for the outdoors(like the ones you see set up in target all the time in the home and garden section). It would be sooooo cool if I could get a fire tosser or a hena tatoo artist there, but I`m sooo not that rich, unless they would do it for free. I`m gonna have chiffon and bright colored drapes and inscents everywhere and maybe some candles. There`s gonna be plenty of food, because that`s what they are like. I really want some statues of like elephants or god(esses), it would really add to the effect. I live in aplace that looks are everything, EVERYTHING!!! If you have the wrong back pack people will talk. I need a totally huge party, without the huge price. It could be cool if I could get some sand and a camel(real of fake) fo like pictures and stuff. My sister is having her 18th birthday and it`s a walk on the red carpet theme. She will try to set expectations that she doesn`t think I will reach. Plus her party is 2 weeks before mine!!! I have to beat her in this compition of the siblings because I have to deal with same people going to both of our partys. I don`t want to constatly hear about her party and how mine was soo bad. If anybody has anything, family or close friends connections that would be willing to help out with girl with almost nothing, please email me and thank you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!!!!!
A fello party planner,
Brittney

Hey. Ok so my bday isnt until September 14th, but dad kinda wants an idea of what i want to do, so he will know if hes gonna have enough money. Im not sure exactly what i want to do, but i want something not very expensive where i can have all my friends come out and just be me. Ive grown up in a small town my entire life, so i do have a country side, but i also like the city. What ever i do, i just want it to be fun and something im gonna look at 15 years down the road and be like "dang. That was a fun night." so any ideas??? thx!!!
