Birthday Party Help


Question Posted Saturday May 2 2009, 9:49 pm

16/f I want to have a big birthday party this year to make up for my complete lack of a party last year. The problem is that I don't have anyone to help be plan a party, and aside from that, I have a limited number of friends who don't know one another very well and belong to different cliques. Is there a good way to bring all my friends together for a party with minimal awkwardness. Also, any sort of party suggestions are welcome.

PS- my birthday's in two weeks but I'd probably having the party the week after that.

Hi there...

I'm planning my birthday party at the moment too, except i'm turning 21 :)

Anyway, Birthday ideas...

Do you want a theme?? If so you could have a Celebrity Theme, Everyone dresses up as their favourite celebrity.

Have a colour theme, Black and your favourite colour OR Everyone to wear black and you wear a bright colour.

or like an Eygption theme, underwater, princess, clowns, animals...

Or you could, when you hand out the invitations, everyone must wear to your party what they are wearing when you hand the invitations out. For EG, If you hand the invitation out to someone in their work uniform they have to wear that to your party.

Give a prize or something for funniest or best dressed. If they don't dress up then you could organise for something to happen to them like have to walk around with something on their head or carry something around all night.

Hope I've given you some idea's. As for everyone who doesn't get along, it's your birthday and if they want you to be happy they'll settle their differences for one night.

Good Luck, Hope I helped :)

In order to bring all of your friends together with little awkwardness, there needs to be a lot going on. Give your party a theme, like a luau or 80's night, disco, something like that. That way you can have music playing all the time and people will be all dressed up. Remember to tell people to dress up. Have a place set up for people to dance. Have a table with food and drinks. Invite a lot of people, even if they're outside of your friend cliques. That way there will be tons of people and no one will expect to know everyone. Just make sure that you know all the people that come because it is your party after all.

Hope this helps!
