This should give you some ideas for decorations, food, dress, etc. -
Step 2: watch 'The Hills.'
This can be any colors you want, although yellow, green, brown, or orange aren't really ideal.
Try something like pink/black, red/black, silver/red/black, gold/pink, purple/white, purple/black, etc.
Be creative! , If it is going to be a dance party, over 25 people. , This should be big enough to hold all the people you want to invite.
Look around for some places that hold formals, proms, and dance parties like yours.
Some people even have theirs in a church. , This should be a date where most of your friends are in town and sometime around your birthday.
If it is a dance party, often at night, choose a time such as 6 PM- 10 PM. , If you are making paper invites, make them either colorful and fun or simple and classy.
Use the colors you chose for the color theme.
You want them to look nice, though, not messy! These should include:
A 5-10 word intro (i.e. "You're Invited To Lilly Povich's 17th Birthday Party!), the date, the time, instructions to the venue (if necessary), and any other information such as DRESS CODE, the food, the activities, etc.
All of the above goes for any other invite method, such as Facebook, text message, etc. , For this type of party, doing a formal dress code, such as dresses/skirts and heels for girls and suits or shirts and ties for guys would be ideal.
Something formal and slightly dressy.
