Happy 14th Birthday to me (Party Planning!!!)
For my 14th birthday party i have no idea what to do. its on january 19th.. that will be the day of the party as well since its a saturday. i cant invite too many people either cause im sure my parents would say no and all the food costs and keeping everyone entertained will be hard. ok so i wanna invite like 6-7 girls.
what are really cute ways to make invitations cheaply and creatively awesome? give me sites with ideas or your ideas. and.. for the party idk what will keep guests entertained.. my parents dont like sleepovers so it probably wont happen especially with like 7 other girls.. yea and what time should the party/gettogether start and end..
im thinking of maybe 2-9pm? is that a bit much? cause i like the daytime-ish better than night.
im planning on us watching a movie.. Meet the Spartans i wanted to see but it comes out next week.. so which seems more entertaining? 27 dresses or Juno? and my parents arent contributing much to the party so is it like ok that we go to a movie theater after they come to my house all together in my mom's car and the guests pay for their ticket and snacks?
and the when we come home..i dont know what we'll do. we barely have any games. like we have sims 2 but its hard since everyone wants to control but that can be fun for a bit.. and what else can we do? bake cookies? um.. limbo? dance? what are some great dancey songs for me to use? i'll start making a mix CD. and other cool, fun ideas that will make my party bangin and not make the guests leave!
btw what foods should be there too? i like little cute healthy but tasty things.. chocolate ofcourse, though. maybe like.. icecream bars, pizza, chocolate covered strawberries, etc. and drinks.. juice, water and like sprite or pepsi? and should there be a theme? what? like its right in the middle of winter (my bday) and the closest holiday is like martin luther king jr day lol. give me your best party advice and ideas and.. also where are other cheapish but lots of fun places i can have my party with a couple people?
and on the 18th we have a school field trip and after school theres a school dance. would it be obnoxious or like.. not cool if i wore a happy bday princess crown? i thought it sounded cute.. haha i dont know.. or what else could i wear to show its my bday.. cause my friend's gunna tell the DJ to make a shoutout to me too.. but then its also like.. my bday is tomorrow. but yeah, ha.
thanks a bunch.. you dont even know guys. *tears*

Don't make people pay for YOUR party, that's just rude. It's also not a party then, it's just hanging out at the movies and your mom is carpooling.
For invitations, you could use black construction paper and a silver sharpie and make it in the shape of a movie clapboard, or a roll of film.
At your house, you could play games like truth or dare, make smores, ice cream sundaes, put on iTunes and make up a dance, etc etc. Usually things just flow naturally.
Sometimes I'll wear a tiara to school if it's my birthday, but it feels different to wear it to a dance. If it's a dance for the whole grade/school, something just feels conceited about wearing a crown to it, KWIM? If I saw somebody with it I'd probably just roll my eyes in annoyance.

HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY! hahah. Don't worry about entertaining, you will pritty much entertain yourselves. But you have to have music. If you're making a cd, put songs that you all know the words to that are fun to sing and dance to! If you have Twister, thats a fun game.
Go see Juno. But don't make everyone pay, like the other girl said. So if you don't want to pay, just have everyone stay at your house, or go to the mall. When you get back to yur house, just order a pizza.. or make your own! You can buy a bag of bagels and make pizza on those. So good. And you can keep melted chocolate on the stove. It has to be on a double-boiler or a big bowl on top of boiling water. I'm sure your parents know about that. But have strawberrys, oreos, etc. that everyone can dip in the chocolate. I wouldn't have a theme. No one really pays attention. For the invitations; put white glitter/sparkles on it to make the "Winter Wonderland" kinda theme. For the dance, I would wear the crown, that so cute. I did the same for my birthday, I wore a bright pink crown everywhere. So I would wear it to the dance, and where ever you go! Plus you get "happy birthdays" and/or compliments! hahah.
Have fun!

Do NOT ask your guests to pay for anything.
That is incredibly tacky and rude.
Most people will leave after they eat.
Just do want you want and go see Juno.
