Prom is a celebration of high school goers. An event is conducted by the school authorities and a committee is appointed for the same. It is a formal event that demands everyone to dress formally in prom dresses, long gowns, tuxedos, suits, etc. Exchange of prom flowers is a tradition. Usually, prom queen and king are announced, who perform a dance together and then the floor is opened for all to dance the night away. Some schools also conduct after-prom activities that are comparatively less formal and include eating, drinking, and playing fun games together. 

Prom is a traditional high school event conducted every year around April-May. It is a formal event conducted by the school authorities by appointing a prom committee. Usually, prom is followed by a casual after-prom party. School goers dress up formally in gowns, long dresses, tuxedos, suits etc. and exchange corsages and boutonnieres after having a formal dance. 

The dress that abides by the school dress code. There have been cases when students have been asked to leave because of inappropriate attire. It can be very embarrassing and disheartening at the same time. It is highly advised to follow all the instructions given by the school in terms of prom attire. Also, your prom dress should suit your individual style and personality. It shouldn’t make you look like someone you’re not. If you’re elegant and cute, go for a simple a-line prom dress with minimal embellishments, but if you’re bold and bossy, arrive in an eye-catching, figure-flattering ensemble that demands attention. Remember, your dress choice should be in harmony with your school’s dress code.  

After prom activities include going to the after-prom school party or going out with a group of close friends or a date. It could be a fun evening party, a sports bar meet, a bowling session, a casual pyjama party, or a romantic dinner date or movie night. All you have to do is either get the after-prom party tickets or make plans with your friends. Our “The Night of Prom” section will answer your questions in detail.
