If you are looking for some unique and special ideas to celebrate your big day rather than just going out, you are reading the right article. You only turn 21 once and you gotta do it right. Here are some party ideas, gift ideas and dos and don'ts for you to have the happiest birthday!
1. Birthday party!
Going out can be expensive and half of your friends won’t even get into the bars. On the other hand, having your birthday celebration at home is much safer, cheaper and more fun! There is nothing wrong with having a plain party but here are some ways to make it special and unique!
2. Birthday costume party.
Have your guests dress up as any thing or a person you share your birthday with. They could even dress up as you.
3. Funeral themed.
Turning 21 means that your youth is gone. The guests have to dress up in black and have fun in loving memory of your youth!
4. The throwback.
Is there a birthday that you always remember from your childhood? Reenact it! Same outfit, same cake, same food... Take a picture and compare them with your past!
5. Casino themed.
Casino makes me think of two things: “adult” and “fun,” and so does turning 21! Guests will dress up nicely, the house will have such fun decorations and there will be a lot of games and prizes.
6. Fun/creative gift ideas.
You can’t really plan what you’re getting on your birthday but you can drop some hints and hopefully your friends and parents will get the hint.
21-year-old wine.
Bottled on your birth year!
A bag full of Taco Bell’s tacos.
You can share them with your drunk friends at your party.

Or anything you’d never forget.
Spa day.

Glassware.
Nothing says "adult" more than drinking your cocktail with the right glassware.
9. Dos and Don’ts.
Dress up!
It is your day so you should look like you own the day.
Take pictures!
You gotta remember your big day!
Head a conga line.
No explanation needed.
Forget about eating healthy.
Eat whatever your heart desires.
Don’t skip classes.
The more people you’ll see, the more wishes and hugs you’ll get. You can also show off your birthday outfit.
Don’t take 21 shots.
There are so many ways to have fun without getting trashed. If you are drinking, please drink responsibly.
Don’t expect your friends to spend a lot of money.
You might want to travel, go out to eat at an expensive restaurant or go to a spa with your friends. It is important to do something fun but remember that it’s not their birthday.
