How to Plan Your Dream Prom

Hard work and some careful planning will make your prom the best in 2008. You want things to run smoothly so here are some tips to make sure you have the perfect prom experience.

Keep in mind that a plan of action should begin many months before most people are even thinking about prom.

First, find your willing group of students, teachers and parents who want to help out. These should be dedicated individuals who want only the best for your high school prom. This is your official prom committee.

Next, divide everyone up in to sub-committees. Each group will have authority over music, food, decorations and other specific things that need attention early on in the prom-planning process.

Do not forget to buy gifts for your prom court such as tiaras, crowns, sashes and bouquets.

Make sure that your prom has a theme. There is the classic Hollywood theme, or Hawaiian Luau. You could also try something cute and western, Mardi Gras or disco style.

Make sure that your classmates and future prom-goers know about the prom date in enough time to seriously plan for it. Use banners, posters or early invitations to remind them, especially the guys, that prom is coming up and it is time to start preparing.

Select a GOOD photographer. You do not want to remember your prom with cheesy photographs.

An after-prom party for the senior class and all of your friends is a great way to keep the party rolling and the make the evening last.
