Tips for planning a themed prom or homecoming party
Creating the perfect prom night is no small task, but with proper planning and scheduling, it will be a great experience from start to finish. The fun begins once you make your theme selection and you can really start dreaming up all the ways to make it a night to remember! There are so many great themes to choose from– but if you’re struggling with such a big decision, here are a five themes to get you inspired:
Under The Sea
Transport your guests to the underwater city of Atlantis with this classic prom theme. There are plenty of ways to accomplish the under the sea look; use blue fabrics and lighting, create jellyfish with hanging lights, and use your imagination to create centerpieces that really complete the ocean aesthetic.
Hollywood
Hollywood and prom night are not all the different– both are all about glitz and glam, so why not put the two together? You can try to recreate an award ceremony look or simply keep the decor elegant and classy. Be sure to have a red carpet somewhere for guests to take pictures, and maybe even incorporate a walk of fame. If your photographers and coordinators are up for it, they can dress up like paparazzi to really make everyone feel like stars.
Black & White
This theme is popular for its classy appearance and the simplicity in planning. Gathering decorations is easy, just keep it black and white. However, in order to make sure that your theme is clear to everyone, make sure you cover the room in these colors from top to bottom. Using lights and glitter can also help to keep it glamorous and fit for prom royalty. With this theme, everyone’s colorful dresses will be sure to pop in the pictures.
Casino Night
It can be surprisingly easy to transform your venue into a casino night that guests will love. You can get jumbo dice and poker chips, bright lights and glitter, plus red and black colors to stick with traditional casino colors. You can even turn the fun up a notch with card games, without money of course. Make sure you get this theme approved before you really get into the planning and your hard work is wasted.
Starry Night
It will be easy to dazzle your guests with a stunning night under the stars. Because this theme is so popular, there are plenty of places to buy kits filled with star shaped decorations and lights. Keep your colors to dark blues, gold, and silver, and remember: the lighting will be super important to make this theme work, so add some twinkling lights to take the aesthetic to the next level.
