Hotel Party

Throw a hotel party for the guy who just turned 21. Having a hotel party is a safe way for him and his friends to drink and enjoy themselves without needing a designated driver or paying for a taxi. Reserve adjoining hotel rooms or one large hotel suite for guests. Stock the hotel room with different types of alcohol and mixers for him to try out, and invite only friends who are 21 and older to join in the festivities.
Limo Ride
-
Steer away from the predictable bar-hopping on his 21st birthday and rent a limo to get to the different bars and clubs you plan on taking him to. Limousine services are available on a per-hour basis and many times a fee for an entire night. Have the limo driver take the group to several bars and clubs he wants to go to and stock it with champagne, wine and other cocktails for the ride.

Surprise Party
-
Throw him a surprise party for his 21st birthday. This is a celebration that can be catered to a drinking or non-drinking 21-year-old. For the guy who wants to partake in alcohol consumption, have a variety of party drinks such as mixed drinks, martinis, margaritas and Jell-O shots. For a surprise party with alcohol, be sure to put a stamp on the hand of any minors present so that they don't get served alcohol while underage. For the non-drinker, provide juice, soda, bottled water, punch and cider. Invite his friends, family and co-workers and designate a person to bring him to the surprise party.
