Hi everyone, I hope you’re all doing well!
I’ve recently taken on the exciting (and also painful) challenge of planning our school’s prom, and I’m leading a committee I've put together to bring it to life.
We are currently in the research phase and really want to capture that "American" prom experience.
Does anyone have tips or insights on how to make the event feel more like an American high school prom? We’re looking for ideas on traditions, themes, and organization.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The prom we are trying to plan is aimed for the 9-12 graders, but also open to the 7th and 8th graders.
I'd love to hear your suggestions 🙌🏻
This is not an attack, but a question out of curiosity. I grew up in an European country, where prom tradition was for family members to attend and watch a show organized by the students. Some students would have relationships and dance together, but there was nothing remotely like shown in American shows about panicking who you will got to prom with. Is it really that much drama in the USA? As someone who spent half of prom night crying after my crush ignored me, that would’ve made things worse if it was public humiliation to go to prom without a date.
My prom is about three weeks away and I have an idea what I want for my prom dress, but I don’t know what stores and shops sell this type of style of prom dress that is under $100. I am willing to do an online order, but I’m scared it won’t come in time but also with online I don’t know where they sell these types of dresses under $100 also. I’ve been trying to find dresses in the LA/OC area but I’ve been going around all of southern California but I don’t know where to go.
Technically this is just for a formal dance, so I was planning on wearing this to it. My skin is a warm tan so I'm planning on going with a tropical/Zara Larsson look.
But when I went to the mall last week, I saw all of these stunning dresses so I'm not even sure if I want to wear the dress I picked out at all...
this is my dress, its very bedazzled and my prom is on may 2 please help!!!
I’m making a prom poster for my bf who loves halo as someone who has never/rarely played. Right now I have “Prom with you would be legendary”, but I feel like that’s too basic. Does anyone have any puns/references I could use??
Image was messed up first attempt, whoops.
It's navy blue, shimmery in light. I don't like wearing white and black makes everything too dark I think
I’m trying to plan something special for a girl I’ve been talking to for a while. I’m a junior and she’s a senior, and I originally wanted to do a promposal, but it turns out neither of us can go to each other’s prom (hers is restricted to her school, and mine is seniors only). So now I’m trying to pivot and still create that same kind of moment, but with an actual event we can go to.
Basically, I’m trying to find a legit formal event I can take her to that actually feels like prom. Not a party, not a club, not one of those “black tie optional” things where people show up in jeans. I’m talking real atmosphere — like a ballroom, people dressed up, music, maybe dancing — something that feels like a real night.
I’m in the NYC area but willing to travel up to about an hour north (Beacon area) or around NJ / Westchester. Ideally something on the west side or accessible by train.
What I’m looking for:
Bonus if it has:
What I DON’T want:
Basically I’m trying to recreate the prom night feeling with a real event she can look back on forever, since actual prom isn’t an option.
What accessories can go with this prom dress if you have the link I would appreciate it!!
