Maybe take her best friends or a few girls into the city or somewhere, rent a hotel room with them and do a spa/manicure or massage thing as a group? (kinda like a sleep over) - you can call room service, order ice cream or something, rent a movie, etc......

or a night at dave and busters with friends?

or a sleepover at your house - mani/ped theme, movie theme, beading theme, etc...

oooh...or would she be interested in a "mom and me" weekened somewhere? (or a family trip somewhere?) - based on her interests (an instrument, art, etc)

I remember in high school, for one of my friends 16th birthday, a friends parent rented rooms in the marriot, and we had a bunch of friends there. We went in the pool and just hung out away from home. Of course the parents were there.

I think the city is a good idea too. Maybe a limo, dinner, hotel with a few friends? There are so many cool places in NYC that they can go. What is she into?

I did want a sweet sixteen either.

My birthday is the beginning of Nov, so my uncle and his friend took me and 3 of my best friends to great adventure in NJ for the day in a limo. It was awesome, i got some great pics, had a blast, and best of all the park was empty!

For my sweet-16, my sister and I (we're twins) each invited 10 friends to dinner at Bennigans. My mom rented the back room and we ordered what we wanted and chatted with our friends.

Re: need help with ideas pls!!

when i was 16 i didnt want a party either. so my parents rented us a limo and we went into the city to see a play. i know your stepdaughter doesnt like plays. so how about renting her and her friends a limo and they can go eat in the city, someplace fun like the hard rock, jeckly and hydes or sereditpitys and then maybe a movie or ice skating in the city.

Kristi, it's an overnight, thing, so it was under their overnight packages. This is what it says:

• Plush Robes & Slippers to use while you’re pampered
• Mini Deluxe European Facial (35 min)

• French Indulgence Pedicure (65 min.)
• Use of our Indoor Heated Pool & Fitness Center

It's expensive, but then again, so is a sweet 16!
