Sweet 16 Question

Sweet 16 Question

Fh and I have a sweet 16 to go to at the end of June. It's being held at Jericho Terrace. How much $ do you think is an appropriate amount? I'm close friends with the girl's sister. She's one of my BMs.
I haven't been to a Sweet 16, since I was 16 so I have no clue what to give!
Thanks!

Re: Sweet 16 Question

I have cousins who are all in that 16-ish age range and they all want money for bdays. If that bothers you, what about a gift certificate?

Re: Sweet 16 Question

I say between $150-$200

Re: Sweet 16 Question

Sheesh - I'm out of the loop then on this one!! But then again, I was 16 a loooooooooooooooooong time ago!

Re: Sweet 16 Question

That's it I'm having my own sweet sixteen party

Re: Sweet 16 Question

for my cousin's sweet 16 i got her the Tiffany key chain and had her initial's engraved in it - it was a huge hit - i think with the engraving and everything it came to just about $100 - my sister ended up also getting her the crystal box with the bow and she really liked that too!

Re: Sweet 16 Question

I think $100 should be fine! Or you can get her a Gift Certificate for the mall or something! What 16 yr old girl wouldn't love that?

Re: Sweet 16 Question

OMG I would have said like $50.00

But then again I never had a sweet sixteen

Re: Sweet 16 Question

i agree- i think 50-100 is good enough - i gave 100 b/c it was family but you couldn't believe the loot this girl was leaving with! it gets nuts! meanwhile her parents have get to give me an engagement gift

Re: Sweet 16 Question

i just mention the tiffanys thing...b/c I work with 15/16 year olds...and they always come in the monday after their sweet 16 with tiffany bags (the blue bag to hold their pictures...) and jewelry

Re: Sweet 16 Question

$50 - $100. i wouldn't spend more than that.

Re: Sweet 16 Question

Thanks so much girls!

Erica: I LOVE your Tiffany's idea but since I'm studying for the bar, I don't have time to go into the city.

Re: Sweet 16 Question

you can order online...and also there is a store in Manhasset...but I so understand...money is MUCH easier!

and always well appreciated!

Re: Sweet 16 Question

Erica: DUH!!! I totally forgot there was a Tiffany't in Manhasset! I live like 15mins from Manhasset. I'm going to get her something from there then. I just didn't want to have to go all the way to Manhattan.

Thanks so much for your help!!!

Re: Sweet 16 Question

Yeah, I would have loved something from Tiffany's but that was 11 years ago. I got about $30 a person, more if they were my best friends ( closer to $50)

Tiffany's sounds like a lovely place to get a gift

Re: Sweet 16 Question

jericho terrace for a sweet 16? I would say 75 to 100 for the gift or money.. sweet 16's are the time when girls get alot of jewelry.. sometime tiffany's would be a nice gift!

Re: Sweet 16 Question

I'd say a present worth $50 - 100, I have gone to a few since I've been older and we usually give Tiffany's necklaces or bracelets.
