What Do I Do For My Sweet 16?

I am having the hardest time planning my sweet 16. It doesn`t have to be something cheap or like too expensive....i probably dont want to spend more than 2000 dollars. I want it to be something semi-dressy. I want to have on a nice white dress. I dont want it 2 be like a quincenera but perhaps somthing some what similar. I dont think i have a court or dancers. I think i want to light 16 candles and maybe have like 16 different ppl light them for my and i light the last one with my parents. I want to have some of my friends dress up in matching dresses and maybe a dinner thing but i dont know how 2 go about it. I am looking for a place to ahve it right now but i am not exactly sure what kind of place. I want to have a dj which my brother will do and alot of my friends boys and girls come and dance and eat. I want a cake. I dont know what to do about the center pieces or the decorations. I dont want something big for the decorations somthing cheep but cute and nice. Can u give me sum ideas please?? like wat type of place to have it at and i am thinking of having it buffet. But i dont want it 2 be like too much. Help please.

Well one of the most important things people do not realize is what type of music the DJ will play. The music is kinda of a big part of the party. Also yes i would go with the 16 people and 16 candels but try it like this. You and 16 of your friends come in pairs and walk trough the people then lets say the guys kneel down and they put there hands up while the lady is still holding ther hand and then goes around them. Then you start dancing. I seen many people do this over here and it seems to work. Just remember the music is a big part. ; )
