Prom Checklist

By Zoe Krueger

Prom will be here before we know it. Are you ready? Here’s a suggested check list to follow to ensure you’re prepared for the big day.

Two months:

Order yours dress–if you haven’t already. Hurry before your options are less then favorable. Check out the new and lightly used dresses the TROFY is selling in room 302.

Prepare your plans–Start making your prom/pre-prom plans.

Make appointments–If you plan to get your hair or nails done, then it’s best to get your name in the appointment books before all stylists are full.

Help select the tux–Help your date select his tux, especially if you want him to match, or want to avoid a Dumb and Dumber look-alike.

Review your budget–Make sure you still have money for what you need and haven’t already exceeded your budget.

One month:

Pick up the dress–Best to have it in your closet now.

Alterations–If you need something fixed, it’s suggested you get it done before it’s too late.

Break in your shoes– Ladies, we know how mean new shoes can be… Remember you’re going to be in these shoes for several hours.

Corsage/ Boutonniere– Pick out your date’s flower and make sure it will be ready to be picked up the day of or day before.

Last minute changes–Make changes now so you won’t be worried about it later.

Get plenty of rest– The more beauty rest, the better.

Stop stressing–Finalize and relax.

Last two days:

Don’t panic–Yeah, don’t panic…

Purse kit–Plan for makeup emergencies, dress malfunctions, and essentials needed.

Appointments–Attend all hair and nail appointments.

Tux–Make sure your date has his picked up.

More rest–Squeeze those eyes shut tight and try to get as much rest as possible.
