You may be better off having two seperate parties on different days so you'll both get to feel that little but more special. You can have the theme you want and have the people you want. You've got quite abig budget really. If you were to rent somewhere, put out food and supply Loads of drinks than it should be fine. Try and maintain your theme throughout and only invite people that you really want to be there! Hope this helps ??

It would be smarter to have separate parties, look at a VFW or American Liegion hall which should hold a 100 guests. Happy 16th Birthday.

buy a 20$ cake and give out tootsie rolls. You'll have atleast 470$ of your money left and you can buy yourself lots of tootsie rolls and a pillowcase. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUUUUUUU get a dora pillow case plz plz

HOLY ******* **** 500 DOLLARS?!?!?!?! I get 200 for my birthday and 300 for christmas holy **** man.

My best friend and I want to do a joined sweet 16, but I'm not so sure anymore. My parents are giving me a $500 budget, I don't know what her parents are giving her. But I'm coming to realize that even if she gets more of a budget, we still aren't going to have much for the plans we had in mind. We said we could each invite 50 people and they could bring a friend or date. If we rent a room for the night, it's going to be like $50 a person, and we can't afford that. I want a lot of people there, but I want a simple theme. She wants an extravagant theme, like "the movies" or something. Do you think this could work? Any ideas on how to combine our ideas and get the best party with a very small budget?
