Sweet 16 Party Decorations for Outdoors

 

Sweet 16 party decorations don't have to be limited to indoors ... especially if your guests will be spending all or some of their time outside on your deck or in your yard.

 

Even if your party is an indoor celebration, there are decorations you can put outside to greet your guests and to let everyone know about the celebration inside.

 

It's especially fun to put up outdoor decorations a few days before as it builds excitement for the big day!

 

Yard Signs

Sweet 16 Party Yard Sign

Yard signs are a fun way to greet your guests and guide them to your party location.  Put them on your front lawn, on the corner of your street, or even at the entranceway of your subdivision!

 

If you're holding your party in your back yard, you can even use a yard sign to guide people around the back of your house or through your gate rather than having them come through your house.

 

Some yard signs are weather-resistant so you can put them out ahead of time.  If the elements are an issue for you then look for this feature.

 

Shindigz.com has several different Yard Signs to choose from including weather-resistant, inflatable, and laminated cardboard.  Click here to check out their selection and to order.

Balloons

Birthday Party BalloonsBalloons are an economical way to decorate outside.  You can create balloon bouquets for outside tables and you can line your driveway and walkways.  Balloons on your lawn can be kept in place with large nails or tent pegs. 

 

Keep in mind that after a while air and helium leaks out of balloons, so don't hang them or put them outside too early.  Latex balloons lose air and helium much faster than Mylar.  Latex balloons will usually last only a day while Mylar balloons will last for several days.

 

Stick to your color theme or used balloons in your teen's favorite color.  Be sure to order them ahead of time, especially if you want a lot.  The selection of balloons is incredible so go in to the store and select them ahead of time.  Most stores require prepayment for large orders. 

 

For online shopping, Shindigz.com has lots of Mylar themed balloons and latex balloons in many different colors.  Click here to check out their selection and to order.  You can rent helium tanks at your local party store or rental store.

Unique & One-of-a-kind Decorations

Birthday Display - Sports Jerseys

If your party will be held mostly outside then hang some mementos from your teen's life outside ... on a clothesline for example.

 

Sports jerseys & uniforms, dance costumes, figure skating outfits, prom dresses, etc. can all be hung outside as a tribute to your teen.

 

We don't recommend hanging these too early though ... in case it rains or gets windy.  Hanging them the day of the party would be perfect.
