If you want to that route with the hypnotist. You should have a themed party like a gypsy theme, all dress up like gypsies, have a fortune teller, and have the men dress like Aladdin haha. It would be defiantly fun and out there
If that is what you have in mind then is fine and normal unless you want to go to space
I turn 16 in November and I don't know what I should do for my party. I was thinking about having a hypnotist, or some sort of entertainment there but I don't know. Last year I went with a couple of my closet friends to a restaurant and then shopping so I want to do something different. Any ideas?
