Prom Theme Ideas

There are many prom themes ideas for your committee to choose. Choosing on a theme is one of the more leading decisions your High School planning committee will make. Just keep in mind with prom themes there is room to add or subtract details. If you remember this, then you should as a matter of fact be able to pick out themed ideas that a majority of the Junior Class students can agree on.

Prom Ideas

Michael Buble

Are you trying to go for something out of the ordinary or keep it more relaxed? Your budget, resources, and creativity will build the boundaries for any prom ideas. The funds can give you a sense of the location for the venue since these facilities will vary with price. If you are planning a Michigan prom, I propose choosing a banquet hall on this list that is close in you area to sacrifice driving time (25 minutes or less). Some venues might make decorating more challenging, while others might spark your creative sense. The more resources your decorating committee has, the better. If you can make a majority of the decorations, or rent pieces at a discounted rate, this will save money and you will be able to allocate funds elsewhere. The disadvantage is that commonly hand production decorations takes time and people. commonly this is feasible for high school themes that mean 500 students.

Now if you are brainstorming themes where the guest list is in excess of 1,000, then you will have to pick a bigger premise as well as one exceptional prom. Below are a merge of quick things to think before we rattle off a list of potential themes ideas.

High School Prom Colors

There are many colors for you to pick from. You can whether have them slightly offset, match your school colors, or have them be fully different. I propose having your high school prom colors match the theme. This will give you dance more balance and keep things consistent with what students will be expecting. A merge of events based just on colors:

All White Party Theme

Black and White Ball Theme

How to pick a Theme

Which one should you go with? Do you need more help with how to pick a prom theme? Well, it is leading that you avoid doing the same theme two years in a row. Also you should check with local high schools to make sure that you do not accidentally duplicate their ideas (this might originate bitter feelings). Make sure your theme is achievable with the banquet premise you have chosen, and that resources for decorating can be found easily. Also order a collection of prom catalogs to give you an idea of what you have to work with. Lastly hyping your high school prom is highly leading (this will help heighten label sales). Make sure to play the song, and remind students of the theme with any school announcements/pep-rallies. Working with you funds is leading for planning a high school prom dance, but you also have to give the students what they want. What is that.... A great send off for the seniors and something that makes your freshmen and sophomores prospect next years' prom!
