6 Ways To Be Prepared For Prom Season
It’s that time of the year again when word starts buzzing across the hallways and stress from assignments are replaced by something more pressing. It’s prom season, arguably one of the greatest events of your high school life. And like all memorable moments, planning for a big event can get pretty stressful. Don’t fret. Keep the following checklist and stick to a normal schedule.
Getting That Right Dress
Start up some much needed shopping and hit the stores months in advance, especially if you want to run on a budget. Keep calm about the changing trends in designs and colors by sticking to what suits you. You can always play it safe with colours that never go out of style such as black and red. Keep in mind the Pantone colour of the year is “Living Coral” so you’ll probably be seeing that shade everywhere very soon! Never forget, that feeling comfortable in whatever you choose for this momentous occasion is most important.i
Beauty Bookings and Appointment
It’s no secret. Everyone enjoys a good pampering session right before prom. And while it’s not a wise choice to get these done too far in advance, you should definitely plan out what services you want and when before all the salons get booked up!
Get The Groupies Together
A group is never a crowd, sometimes may even work as a support system for shy friends and classmates who may be overwhelmed by the concept of prom. Designate and meet up with your friends beforehand by discussing things such as photos, places to visit post-prom and transportation.
Coordinate And Compare
If you’re planning on having someone accompany you as a date, chances are the other person’s going to be as anxious about making a good first impression as you are. Make sure you’re on the same page whether the matter concerns splitting costs for things taking photos or transportation. Communication is very important to avoid confusion and added stress.
Get The Right Tools

Scheduling and planning can be a whole lot easier if with the help of apps and timetables. Often the most important plans can get over-looked when dealing with a large group of people and different schedules.
Use some tools like a scheduler with a budget tracker to ensure plans stay on track. Something as simple as Kwik or a Slack account can be used to improve communication among several people. Keep the venues in check and don’t forget to save the date.
Bring Your Family
While a lot of teenagers may feel hesitant at involving family members in preparations before prom season, a little advice from the grown ups can be a great deal of support.
More importantly, let them know about your plans and ask for any tips or suggestions. It’s one thing to prep yourself up for prom season and another thing to bring that preparation to perfection with some external opinions. Remember, it’s a process for them as much as it is for you. They will want to help share you in special day.
