Sweet 16 Masquerade Party

RE: Sweet 16 Masquerade Party Post By PinkBunny (Guest Post) (09/21/2008) I was planning on doing a masquerade ball sweet sixteen for my birthday in July but I don't think I can afford fancy stuff but I do want it to be formal. Can anyone help as to where I should buy the stuff?

I plan on using a formal card invitation with the clay seal that you have to break to open. I will require a mask to enter but I'm also encouraging full character costumes (no Halloween style monsters and things) I want to keep it classy! I will also be having contests for costumes, masks, even for character pairs or groups! Your games do not have to go with the theme, it could be as simple as a memory game, musical blocks (using taped down construction paper on the floor)not so violent!, or a little bit more elaborate like a "who done it" mystery game. Some ideas: word scrambles, twinkie eating contest, apple eating-tie apples with string hanging from rope; if that's not enough,want more ideas let me know! We plan on keeping them busy all night with games and activities instead of just dancing. We figure no one would be bored and we'll have different games for different personalities. Invites: Only invite those whom are not only close to you, family but the others should be ones that would actually participate in something like this. We had some people say there's no way they were wearing a costume or mask and we told them that the only way to get in is if you're wearing one! This changed their minds and they weren't mad or anything. It will be fun and everybody gets a chance to be someone else for a day!

What about a 1800's inspired theme? or how about an Egyptian one? That would be fun!

I like the idea of doing a kidnapping or a murder. Are you going to make everyone dress up really dressy? I can't decide if I want to make mine a formal or casual kind of thing. I personally don't like to get all dresses up and I don't want my friends to have to spend a lot of money to buy tuxes/dresses.

Any ideas? Tabby from Toledo, OH Answers: RE: Sweet 16 Masquerade Party You didn't post much information on the birthday teen. Boy? Girl? The only thing I can think of right now is that when he/she passes out the invitation, you also hand each guest a plain mask with instructions to be creative and design their own mask to wear to the party. You might also attach a small baggy with jewels, paint, feathers etc with the plain mask to help them get started. Maybe if you give some more information, we can help more. Good luck! (10/17/2006) By ChristiansMom RE: Sweet 16 Masquerade Party I'm planning on doing the same for my sweet 16 but with a twist. Everyone will be required to wear a mask and keep it on. I thought it would be best to have everyone buy their own mask so they would be able to customize it to their liking ( and have a "best mask" contest). Someone will announce there has been a murder or kidnapping. I will place cards on each table containing clues to who it is. I will have someone act as the murderer/kidnapper and leave a trail of bread crumbs, such as some fabric here or a glove there. The one to unmask the person will be given a prize ( I was thinking something like a prepaid cellular. (Some only cost about 7 dollars). I will have a number of contests such as "best dressed", "most mysterious", and "best character". I will also put aside about 2 hours to host a performance time where people can display their talents for prizes if they wish. (08/22/2007) By niambi Report Spam or Abuse
