I didn't have a sweet 16 and now I'm definitely having a 17. The only problem is I only have 2000 dollars to do it with and I need some help because I'm having it in the commons at my school I want it to look different. I have an idea about having a forest type theme. I envision having paper-mache trees around the venue that are hanging over my visitors head with fog rolling in around their feet. Since the venue has a really high ceiling I want to make it feel more claustrophobic...I mean comfy; lol. I want the floor to have faux leaves scattered on it also make it feel like it is a forest. I also want 13 large circular tables with huge flower arrangements, they don't have to be real, of tall vases filled with black baccara roses. I am an artist so I could make all of the trees and vines myself. I also wanted to make a carriage for guests to take pictures in. I have tons of silk fabric, I also sew, to drape over the tables and chairs.
Gothic birthday menu?
The only thing that comes to mind when i hear "gothic food" is the stuff people have at halloween (grape "eyeballs", spaghetti "brains", ect).
The food doesn't matter, just as long as it is what everyone likes. Instead, I suggest finding really cool paper/plastic/glass plates, silverware, cups, ect. Food always looks good on square plates, and if you get any of your theme colors (white/black/red/purple), the food will really pop out!
Try looking at target, walmart, or party supply stores for good deals. If you're willing to spend the extra buck, you could go to macys, bed bath and beyond, ect.
And if you get a decent set of tableware, you can re-use them at different parties!
Good luck!
Reply:black cherries, wine grapes (which i think are a little darker than red grapes) dark chocolate truffles, salsa with blue corn toratilla chips. cucumber sandwiches on rye or pumperknickel bread, toasted pita bread with chive and onion cream cheese.
When i think of gothic, I think of decedant foods that you don't need a fork and knife to eat. Its not about being scary, its about having something unusal. good luck with your party/\.
Reply:The term "Gothic" originally refers to Germanic people who lived in eastern Europe. Try German/Slavic cooking (like goulash or something heavy on meat) for that Transylvanain mood.
