Sweet 16 Parties - Part 1

A Day at the Spa

By , About.com Guide

Party Description

Some girls just love to be pampered. A day at the spa with a group of best friends is the ideal way to share girl talk and feel special together. The day could include any or all of these beauty treatments: facial, manicures, pedicures, hairstyling, massages and a special lunch if the Spa has the facility. To locate a day spa near you, visit Julie Register, About Guide to Spas.

If your budget is limited, but this is the celebration that your daughter would love best, create a day spa in your own home. Many of the products used in spas can be purchased for home use. Set up the spa in your kitchen, and let the girls help each other out with the treatments. For a simple lunch you can serve a Chicken, Apple and Smoked Gouda Salad, bread, fruit salad, juice drinks, and brownies.
