Question by mizzdiva_1995: Good ideas for a rave (no drugs) party?
Ok so I’m having a Super Sweet 16 in May, 2011 and I wanted to have a rave themed party minus the drugs and alcohol. I live in Illinois so does anybody know of any teen clubs I could have it at? Any ideas on themes for a rave party? What I should wear for my grand entrance? Really any ideas would help? I’m at like a ,000-,000 budget and I wanna spend most of it on decorations and the venue so PLEASE HELP!!!

Well a rave is just a techno party without the drugs and alcohol that’s the whole idea of a rave. Anyway a bunch of techno musicor a dj who plays techno, lights like black lights disco balls. I’d get a fog machine. You’ll need a bunch of glow sticks and glow lights and glow necklaces eventhough without the drugs it won’t have the same effect, but it’ll still look cool. You could get trippy black light posters to decorate the venue with. Since you have money to spare I’d hire someone to do a light show and have multi-color laser lights on your dance floor. Your dj may also be able to do that so I’d ask him first. And that’s about it. You want it to be dark so you can have the black light effect so if you wanted something extra you could maybe provide a non alcoholic bar so your friends can dance without passing out( water and sodas). The chances of you having it at a club isn’t likely. You might as well just take your friends to the club and not even bother with anything else. You need to rent out a banquet hall or party hall in your area. Then it can just be you and your friends and you can make it anyway you like. For your grand entrance you should wear somthing you can dance it. I like cocktail dresses. It depends on what you look like would help with exactly what your outfit should look like. If you have a small bust line I’d go with a strapless dress if you’re busty then go with a halter. If your light skin go with a darker color dress and if your darker then a pastel color. Since it’s a rave you may not wanna do a dress at all. Jeans and a dressy top like an over the shoulder black shimmery top with red lipstick is always great for light and dark skin girls but if red isn’t your color shorts and a cute top with heels can make your legs look great and give you plenty of room to dance in. Hope that helps!
