"SayCHEESE" party all night

long!

Sew WhatBook beauty appointments at least three weeks

(or more!) in advance. Chat with your stylist and make sure she can do the 'do. Make sure the style you

decide upon works well with your dress.

See the full effect! Get dolled up in your dress, shoes, accessories (even

undergarments), to make sure everything looks good together. Don't forget: Break in your heels by wearing them

around the house!

No-worry solution to the deodorant problem! Try a few brands to find one

that won’t leave residue on your beautiful Prom gown!

Everyone probably has the same top choices for dinner...make

your reservations well in advance of Prom night!

Order your date’s boutonniere from the florist -

and to pick it up on Prom day.Drop a hint to your date

about your dress color so your corsage coordinates!

Consult with your dateabout who is buying the tickets. Don’t forget to pack them--they should

be the first things in your purse!

Organize and discuss your ride plans (and payment) with friends

AND mom and dad! Popular opts are renting a limo,

booking a party bus or even borrowing dad’s car.

After mom & dad are (finally)finished taking pics of you

and your date and BFFs, takesome time to snap some

candid pics at a local parkor even your backyard!

Charge your camera the night before Prom, so you’re ready for

every memorable moment!

Keep the good times going even when Prom is over! Try some of

these ideas with friends & parents: a bonfire, laser tag, pancake

breakfast, or beach party. Pack an outfit and comfy shoes so you're not

stuck in your Prom dress!

To ensure your dress fits properly, get it altered a FEW WEEKS BEFORE Prom. Seamstresses may be knee

deep in Prom dresses. Give 'em plenty of time!
