I'm only sixteen, but I've been planning spectacular birthday parties for friends and family for a few years now. I'm very good at what I do and I know I could make a living out of it one day. The problem is I don't even know where to begin if I wanted to turn it into an actual business. My mom said she'd help me start it up provided I do all the research. Any and all advice is greatly appreciated.

I've done research on business plans, and while I'm making one for personal reasons, I know it isn't required unless I need outside funding which, for a party planning business, I really don't. I guess a more accurate question would be what legal issues am I going to face, and what forms will be required?
