Plan the Perfect Sweet 16 at Majestic Gardens
She’s waited her whole life for this moment, and at Majestic Gardens, we know a Sweet 16 deserves to be nothing short of magical. From the introduction to the last dance, our exclusive venue is designed to give your daughter, niece, or granddaughter a celebration she’ll never forget. If you're starting to plan, here’s everything you need to know to throw an amazing Sweet 16 at Majestic Gardens:
Book EarlY: The Best Dates Go Fast
A Friday or Saturday night Sweet 16 is the dream, but those dates fill up quickly. If you are looking for dates from April through October, we recommend booking Majestic Gardens at least 10 to 14 months in advance to lock in the perfect night at our award-winning Long Island event venue. If you are flexible with the date and considering a Thursday or Sunday, then we suggest looking 6 to 8 months in advance. The earlier you reserve, the more flexibility you’ll have with entertainment, decor, and theme planning!
Create the Right Guest List
Our versatile event space can accommodate both small parties and large celebrations, but curating that guest list is still key. Sit down with the guest of honor and prioritize her closest friends. You want guests who make her feel celebrated on her big day!
Make a Statement with Invitations
Set the tone early with beautiful, personalized invitations that reflect the party’s theme or color palette. Whether your Sweet 16 has a red carpet entrance, a pastel princess vibe, or something modern and chic, coordinating the invites makes everything feel cohesive—and helps build the hype.
Arrive in Style
A stretch limo or party bus adds instant glam. Make her feel like a celebrity with a red-carpet entrance right at the doors of Majestic Gardens’ private venue. And don’t forget the “paparazzi”! Friends and family snapping photos while she makes her entrance make her feel like the star she is.
Music Makes the Night
Your DJ will set the energy for the whole evening. Choose someone who’s in tune with current hits, knows how to read a room, and can switch from high-energy anthems to classic hits without missing a beat. A curated playlist from the birthday girl can be a helpful guide. Consider hiring top Majestic Preferred Vendors like After Hours Entertainment or LI Nights to work with professionals who know our outstanding event venue inside and out!
Hire a Photographer
This isn’t just a birthday, it’s a milestone! Hiring a professional photographer means you’ll get polished photos of every moment, from candid laughs on the dance floor to formal family shots. At Majestic Gardens, our gardens and venue l layout are photo-ready, making every memory picture-perfect.
Give Her Space
Let her shine! You’ll want a few responsible adults around to keep things running smoothly but try not to hover. Teens feel more comfortable, and have more fun, when the party feels like theirs.
At Majestic Gardens on Long Island, we only host one event at a time—so your Sweet 16 gets our full attention. From custom menus and décor to DJ recommendations and photo ops, we help bring your vision to life.
