A sleepover- ish party at a hotel. It's going to be really easy to organise and it could be symbol of freedom and go to a really good hotel so you can go to the arcade, have room service. If you want to you can have it a bit further away so it would be a mini roadtrip to get there. But if your on a tight budget only invite your close friends and say that you will pay for a spa treat and travel and cake etc... but they just need to pay for the bare necessities like the night and food. If they are your close friends I'm sure they'll understand. And for a budget price book early online- I suggest "laterooms.com"

Do a murder mystery dinner, it's great fun trying to figure out the killer and the motive and getting to dress up and act in character





(You can make it a kidnapping or robbery if you don't like the idea of a murder)





It's good for up to 18-20 people (and you can expand it)







It costs about $39 to download but it's so worth it and it keeps your guests occupied the whole time!





This site has over 70 different themes for you to choose from

I choose the 'Masquerade Ball themed murder mystery party' for my 16th and it was fantastic!







Anyway



Hope you like my idea and hope you have a great party

Ok I could really use some help. I want to hang out with my close friends for my birthday, especially since they are going away for college next year. I would just have something at my house, but we live in a townhouse so not much privacy & we have to be quiet(er). I wanted to do a bonfire, but we would have to do it in our driveway, surrounded by neighbors. I was trying to think of somewhere we could go or something to do, but we aren't all 18 yet, and I don't have a job yet :( I was thinking of asking if they would each pay for themselves if we went somewhere, but I wasn't sure if that was rude, since its my party... And we've been having pretty crappy weather here lately so I'm not sure if I want to plan something outside. My birthday is April 18th, so it'll be my golden ;) That's not really a big deal to me, I just want to enjoy it ;) So, please leave your ideas! Thank you! :)
