Ideas for a Halloween Themed Sweet Sixteen

If you have a taste for horror, gore, and every spine-tingling thing that crosses your mind, hosting a Halloween Themed Sweet Sixteen might be perfect for you! Celebrate the most fun month of the year with a haunted house sweet 16 party. Some say Halloween is the darkest night of the year; light it up with these easy steps:

1) Textured lighting can project ghostly patterns, spider webs, and more onto the floor, ceiling, and walls of your Halloween Themed Sweet Sixteen

The scariest Halloween party of the year isn’t complete without ghosts flying in from the windows or creepy spider webs on the floor.  Set up is easy to create an amazing look to impress your guests. Simply place the gobo, that comes preset with the design of your choice on a tabletop and aim at the surface you’d like your Halloween design to shine on.

2) Don’t forget to bring out the werewolves in your costume party with a realistic LED Moon.

Starry Night Lighting will create the perfect eerie night effect with thousands of slowly moving star beams and a blue nebula. Complete your realistic night sky with an LED Moon that will add that perfectly spooky effect to your Halloween Themed Sweet Sixteen.

3) Get all the skeletons dancing in the glow of a black light!

Black lights are the perfect addition for a spooky haunted house sweet 16. Add glow-in-the-dark decorations and neon florescent skeletons to take the black light effect to the max! Guests will love the neon bar that glows under the Black Light. Add Halloween decorations to keep with that spooky theme.

4) Orange….orange lighting everywhere!

Nothing screams Halloween  like the unofficial color of the Fall season = orange. Jack-O-Lanterns shouldn’t be the only thing adding a little orange flare to your Halloween Sweet Sixteen. You can easily add bursts of color to your walls using uplighting. Orange uplighting is perfect to make your guests feel like they are in a true Halloween themed Sweet 16.

Pair the orange uplighting with black chair covers to complete the Halloween look.

Or add a touch of slimy green uplights to some creepy looking tree branch party decorations.

Even create ghosts inside your haunted tables with ghostly white table glow. Simply place a wireless uplight under your sweet 16 guest’s table and tilt the light towards the linens. Use white tablecloths for the best results.

Happy Halloween!
