Prom Tips & Etiquette

Be Prepared! Keep a mini sewing kit with a needle, thread, and small safety pins in your handbag for quick repairs to an unexpected strap or zipper that may break on your dress.

Prom Date Be dressed and waiting by the time your date arrives. You should be the first person your date sees when he arrives.

At the Prom Remember to turn your cell phone off. Your attention should be focused on your date.

Prom Flowers The girl can pin the boutonniere on her date's jacket. Make sure the pin is under the lapel. If you get your date a pin on corsage, let her pin it on herself. If she's having problems, you can offer to help.

Fragrance Go easy on the perfume, you should also check with your date, in case they're allergic to fragrance.

Say Thank You! Don't forget to thank your date at the end of the evening.
