The sweet 16 party is starting to regain a lot of popularity and importance in our society, especially with the popular Sweet 16 television show on MTV that showcases fantastically large and opulent parties for the sweet 16th birthday. ItÂ’s no small wonder your child is after you for an equally great and cool party. There are ways to make this happen, even on the cheap.
One of the best ways to create a fun party atmosphere is through themed parties and one of the easiest themed parties to put together is a decade theme. The kids will enjoy getting their groove on with a 70s party, and encourage all the guests to arrive in costume to help set the time frame. You can hand out some fun headbands for the party favors and these are inexpensive when purchased in bulk. If the seventies is the wrong decade a 60s party is even groovier and lets you use psychedelic colors in your decoration.
This theme even gives you an opening to add glowsticks to the party, since kids like dancing in a ‘club’ kind of atmosphere you can turn down the lights or replace the light bulbs with black lights and hand out glowsticks for the kids to dance with and wave around. Besides giving out glowsticks you can use them in decoration at the party. The glow ropes and necklaces easily connect together and you can string them along tables, armchairs and stair rails. This adds decorative atmosphere and extra light to a party.
Sweet 16 parties also give kids a chance to dress up. If your childÂ’s sweet 16 is going to involve dresses and tuxedos than you can save a little cash by decorating the party area yourself. Look for anything that sparkles and shines. Metallic dangles to hang from the ceiling will catch any light in the room and send it reflecting back down on the dancers below. You can even blow up a bunch of clear balloons and leave them on the floor to add that extra magical touch to the party.
