Prom Planning Questions

First of all, you should start by consulting your school advisor then forming a prom committee and selecting a prom chairperson. Then answer a few basic questions about your prom event. Your answers will help you get focused and point you in the right direction. You should think through these questions at least four to six months before your scheduled prom date. Divide the responsibilities among the members of your prom committee. Meet at least once a month to get started and more frequently as the prom approaches.

How formal a prom dance do we want?

Should the prom be a black-tie affair, a dressy event, a costume event, or a casual gathering?

What type of prom theme do we want to center the prom around?

How many people do we think will attend the prom?

How much money do we have to spend on prom?

Will we host the prom at our school or another location?

Do we need to arrange a photographer or entertainment for the prom?

How will we publicize the prom?

Stay organized and prepared with the planning timetable below! You can even print out this list and check off each item as you finish it.
