A Fantastic Party For Your Sweet Sixteen

By Elba Fenwick


For most teenagers, sixteen is a magic number, and having a Sweet 16 party is a big dream for many young girls. This event should mark a transition from the children's parties of her youth into a more adult theme, but it still needs to maintain a youthful tone. Here are some suggestions of themes that might make her sixteenth birthday one of the happiest occasions of her life.

One theme that would be popular for an all-girl event would be a spa party. Hire people to come in and provide facials, manicures and pedicures for all her friends. Purchase a soft, fluffy robe for each of the guests and provide goodie bags filled with nail care items, nail polish, lotions and face creams. You can even plan a spa menu with items such as cucumber water, fresh fruit smoothies and light appetizers.

Sometimes when you host a co-ed party, breaking the ice can be difficult. But if everyone comes in costume, then this provides instant conversation starters. You could have a general costume party or stick with a theme, such as TV characters, famous people or even choose a specific decade theme, such as the 1980s or the 1950s. If you have a decade party, this helps you plan out music choices and even the food can complement the decade.

You can also plan a backyard pool party with a beach theme, which might be a lot of fun for a girl born during the summer months. Decorate the patio with twinkle lights and lanterns so that your girl and her friends can keep the party going after the sun sets. For dinner, you can serve up traditional barbecue items or even have a luau menu catered from a local restaurant.

With any birthday party, the dessert is the centerpiece of the evening. Cakes are pretty, but they are also pretty ordinary. It might be much more interesting and fun to select something like gourmet chocolate pizza for your Sweet 16 event. For your chocolate pizza party, head to the experts at Chocolate Pizza Company and you'll find a wide assortment of delicious handmade chocolate pizzas. Each of these pizzas is packed in a traditional pizza box, which creates a truly cool presentation for the party.

The chocolate pizzas begin with a "crust" that is created by blending handmade English toffee and melted dark chocolate or milk chocolate. From there, a blend of freshly chopped nuts and a dash of white chocolate can be added. You can also opt for toppings such as crushed graham crackers and mini marshmallows or perhaps M&Ms. There is even a Happy Birthday chocolate pizza which can include the name of the birthday girl. It might be fun to have a big dessert buffet and include the chocolate pizzas as the centerpiece and then order some other specialties from Chocolate Pizza Company. They have a myriad of delectable items, including almond bark, chocolate-coated pretzels and potato chips, truffles, pecan clusters and Peanut Butter Wings. The wings are the perfect accompaniment to the chocolate pizzas and are created from a mix of potato chips and peanut butter that is dipped either in milk or dark chocolate.
