Have fun choosing a theme for your Sweet 16 birthday party.
A girl's 'Sweet 16' birthday party can range from something very formal to a casual evening at home with friends and family. When celebrating this milestone birthday in October, you can choose a theme that fits your style and the season. Does this Spark an idea?
Costume Party
Halloween falls in October, so have a costume party to celebrate the festive occasion. Provide a candy station at your party with all your favorite Halloween snacks. Mix grape juice with a lemon-lime soda for a ghoulish drink. You can have a contest for the best costume to encourage your guests to get creative.
Hollywood Party
Roll out a red carpet and have a Hollywood-themed party. Ask all of your guests to dress as their favorite movie star. Send out invitations designed to look like a movie ticket. The birthday cake can be designed with the birthday girl's name to look like a star from the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Rent a large screen and play your favorite movies in the background.
Spa Slumber Party
Invite all of your girlfriends over for a day at the spa. Have all the products ready so your friends can paint their nails, put on face masks and have an evening of pampering. You can even hire a masseuse to give back rubs for extra relaxation. Light finger foods should be served. You can also serve cherry-flavored juice mixed with lemon-lime soda in Martini glasses for a special pink birthday beverage.
Vampire Theme Birthday
October is the perfect month for a vampire-themed birthday party. Ask your guests to choose their favorite vampire from the movies or TV shows. You can make red velvet cupcakes complete with vampire bites. Frost the cupcakes with white frosting and use red frosting gel to make the two bite marks on the cupcake. Serve cherry-flavored juice, which is perfect for your blood-thirsty vampire guests.
