I must admit that this sweet sixteen party idea in particular has been one of my favorites!
From the inspiration to the final result. I know your guests will be overwhelmed from the minute they come into the venue and AWE moments throughout the party.
First things first, you must see where the inspiration comes from: Coco Bongo Discotheque. The kid had been to this disco in Cancun where the mood is set in a way that you can not miss the party! We have been there ourselves a couple of times and we knew perfectly well what he was talking about! Every once in a while amazing shows go on stage and throughout the club like confetti streamers, balloons, dancing balls, bar top conga lines, movie clips projected on high tech video screens, live bands, DJs, soap bubbles… you name it! The high energy of this club is commonly packed with party goers. Combine this with Coco Bongo’s extraordinary musical mix, taking sounds from the 70s & 80s, Dance, Trance, Hip Hop and Rave it’s easy to see why Coco Bongo’s dance floor is always full.
Check out this video from Coco Bongo in Cancun. Give the video a little time, it is very dark at the beginning …
It is a constant stimulation for the senses!
What we do for this type of party:
DECORATION AND LIGHTING
If your venue is a club that already has the dancing strobe lights, fine. But having that venue for a private party can be prohibitively expensive. No worries mate! (sorry, I am still in the mood of a crocodile dundee adventure party…) We can bring the lights to you! Yes, for this party, lightning lights and decoration will set the tone for this party and will turn any common venue or even your house from ordinary into extraordinary!
On the middle right hand side you can see our airtube decoration on broad daylight. For this party we use a variety of colors, they can be used outdoor, indoor. You can even transform the front of your house or the whole backyard for this night!
Now, the lighting effects. We combine and work with the DJ so that the song and lighting are totally in sync. These with additional video and slide shows played on huge screen(s) will sure WOW your guests! If you have been to the Blueman Group Concert or to Cirque Du Soleil, you know what I’m talking about!
Check out this video, lights go with the song!
Now, for the center pieces, good news, very good actually, no expensive flowers necessary for this one, although we have worked some beautiful centerpieces for sweet sixteen using similar themes, I suggest going for battery lamps and glow in the dark centerpieces.
ENTERTAINMENT
Now, here is where we can get really creative, inviting innovative party guests and a variety of things that will happen at different moments during the party. Living statues, stilt walkers, golden people walking around, dancers, glow in the dark necklaces and teeth, lookalikes, balloons, bubbles, mini carnivals, line-dances, foam and bubbles, did I tell you that at this party everyone wants to be at the dance floor? Video-sound-smell-taste, WOW moments that are amazing but most of all unexpected. One of this AWE moments will be your entrance! It doesn’t have to be at the beginning like most common dances, it can totally have a twist to it!
