I'm planning a 17th birthday party for my friend, and I have 100.00 spending limit! I want to plan a cheap but cool and hip party!! Does anyone have any ideas for games, snacks, themes, or decorations?
Answer
You can have a bbq with hamburgers and hot dogs. You can then set up an ice cream bar with vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry ice cream and some toppings. Sprinkles, whipped cream, a jar of cherries, and chocolate sauce. You can go to the dollar store and get the tall sundae glasses or just use wine glasses from your house.
You can do each other hair and nails. Manicures and pedicures. Ask your friends to bring their nail polishes and files and order out some pizza, and you can even do the ice cream still or bake a cake or some cupcakes and have your friends over for a spa night.
You can camp out in your back yard. Tell your friends to bring their sleeping bags, blankets, pillows, etc. Get some music, flashlights, etc, and have a night out in the yard.
You can also do a dinner party at your house. If you and your friends know how to cook, invite them over and cook dinner from appetizers to dessert and have a sit down dinner. Or ask your mom for help and cook with her and ask your friends over for a more formal sit down dinner. Make up place cards and a menu, and set the table formally and have a dinner party for you and your friends.
Have a taco bar. Make tacos with all the toppings for you and your friends, get a pinata, and rent some movies and hang out.
Have a girls night. Eat pizza, ice cream, junk food, chips, etc, and hang out. Rent some movies. Tell your friends to bring their pillows and blankets, and pjs, and have a lounge night with your friends. Doing what YOU want!
You can do an around the world dinner party. Tacos from Mexico, pizza from Italy, and so on and and have your friends over for an around the world birthday dinner.
I hope some of these ideas help. Happy Birthday!

I need ideas for a wedding shower and bachelorette party?

I am the maid of honor in my best friends wedding. I am throwing the wedding shower and bachelorette party. Ive been reading ideas online for both but everything requires lots of money. Im on a TINY budget and was wondering if anyone had free or cheap ideas of things to do.
Answer
A shower is fairly inexpensive depending on how many people you invite. Let's say you invite 20 people. Invites will run you about $30-$40. Then food. You can go as cheap as you want for that. I'd say punch, a cake, and a few sandwiches/puff pastries will run you about $50. You should have a co-host split it with you as I imagine you aren't having it at your own house. Then that would be about $50 each.
If that's too much, do some things yourself. Instead of buying a couple flower arrangements for the table, pick your own. Instead of buying frozen quiches or puff pastries at a warehouse club, make sandwiches yourself. Make chicken salad croissants and cucumber sandwiches. Then you could cut the cost in about half.
For a bachelorette party, how many girls are you inviting? It's not just the wedding party that's invited. I'd say the average number is between 7 and 15 girls. Ask them what their budget is. For $20 a person you can do a fair amount.
My bachelorette party we went to dinner at a restaurant that was doing buy one get one free appetizers. We all passed them around the table and it ended up being $8 a person for 2 appetizers each (though I don't think we actually ordered that much). Then we went to a few bars with ladies get in free. Then after about 1 drink, people started buying the bachelorette party drinks. Including buying my drinks, I think that ended up being about $15 per person over 3 bars. So my total was about $25 per person.
There are so many things you can do--it depends on the girls. For an older friend of mine, they hired a chef for about $300. They spent $200 on wine. That was only $25 per person since they had 20 people.
For another friend who had known her bridesmaids since they were 5, they had a sleepover like the old days. A lot of old 80s movies, popcorn and margaritas all night. That was something like $30 total as they got the bucket of margaritas from bed bath and beyond and popcorn is super cheap. Someone put the movies on their netflix.
My groom went camping for his bachelor party. A campsite is about $20-$30. Between beer, food, wood for the fire, gas to get there and other stuff I think everyone put in $30. They rented 2 campsites and between the whole group, tents and sleeping bags were covered. However I've been to campsites that already had tents set up for you.
You could tour wineries. When we were out in California we rented an 8 passenger limo. It was about $40 per person. Many wineries are free and the ones that aren't have roughly a $5 tasting fee. You could easily just do free ones though. Oregon, Virginia, NC--all have a ton of wineries.
One thing I've heard of some people doing is going to an amusement park. That ends up being close to $60 per person though once you have parking and food thrown in but there are lots of outdoorsy things you can do. Minor league baseball games come to mind. You could go to the beach for a day trip. A cooler filled with ice and drinks for the day, and stopping for a meal on the way down and back would be all. Probably close to $30 per person.
Some couples do a backyard bbq type of thing and just grill out burgers at the pool. Yes some girls go to the spa for the day or do some luxury trip to NYC and spend several hundred but I don't know any of them. Most people get married in their mid20s and most of their friends are poor.
