Music stars, refined decorations and more: we estimate how much you should spend to organize a party like the one that has gone viral on the web
How much would you be willing to pay to organize the perfect party? If you think some moms and dads around splurge on revealing year-old showers and parties, wait till you find out the approximate value of a 15th birthday party which brought together a show program worthy of a Brazilian music festival.
This past weekend, the internet was in an uproar as a birthday girl gathered famous names, like Ivete Sangalo, Xamã, Filipe Ret and Dennis DJ, to perform at her debutante party. From what was shared, it is known that the birthday girl is called Gabriela. There is no certain information about her family, but on the web it is assumed that she belongs to the family that owns the Supermercado Guanabara, a famous chain in Rio de Janeiro.
There are also speculations about the cost of this holiday. Event providers avoided mentioning the amounts charged for decoration, space rental, buffet and ceremonial, for example. But the team of Earth contacted three event industry professionals in Rio de Janeiro to estimate the minimum cost of a party of this size.
A spoiler? It’s literally a multi-million dollar party. Watch!
How much is the 15th birthday party that went viral
-
Space – at least 100 thousand BRL
The Copacabana Palace, one of the most famous hotels in Brazil, was the setting for the anniversary. 10 hotel rooms were used at the party in question, and the entire structure took about 10 days to assemble.
This is why it is necessary to rent the space for the entire period of use, not just for the day of the party. If we count just one room, for 300 guests, the price would be R$100,000, plus 15.5% tax.
-
Food and drinks – at least 10.5 thousand BRL
A party with up to 2 hours of cocktails and another 4 hours of buffet costs an average of R$550 per guest, excluding the 10% service charge. This value does not include Japanese food buffet, special sweets and alcoholic beverages.
In the latter case, a corkage fee of R $ 10,000, plus a 15.5% tax, must be paid to bring bottled drinks from abroad. If you want to put a bar that serves drinks, the value is the same.
-
Decoration – from BRL 500 thousand
This article varies according to personal tastes and the amount of luxuries that can be added, such as: out of season or rarer flowers, particular furnishings and scenic lighting. All this preference can cost at least R $ 500 thousand.

Attractions – about 1.5 million BRL
The 15th birthday party that went viral featured Ivete Sangalo, Vintage Culture, L7nnon, Xamã, Dennis DJ and Filipe Ret. The report contacted all the artists, but only rapper Filipe Ret’s press office responded. And the singer’s fee costs, on average, R $ 270,000 and logistics costs.
Event industry professionals consulted by the article estimate that around R$ 1.5 million was spent on the shows alone.
- Ceremonial – from BRL 75 thousand
Throwing a party of this size is a Herculean task, needing expert guidance. A ceremoniist can charge around R$50,000 to help organize the party and another R$25,000 for the team that will be working on the day of the event.

Total price
The above survey is only an estimate, which does not include souvenirs, choreographers, filming and photography, power generator rentals, DJs, valet parking, ambulance and medical service, LED panels, and anything your imagination wants to wear.
To organize a party of this size, the family would have to spend between R$ 10 million and R$ 12 million, according to calculations made by specialists consulted by the Earth. The question that remains is: if this were the case as a debutante, how much should the wedding party cost?
