Prom szn is *finally* here! Prom is so much more than fancy dresses and gorgeous updos—it's a super special evening full of memories! And you can totally get your epic prom night started with a pre-prom party. It guarantees that you and your besties will get the best pics with the cutest decorations. Keep reading, and we'll help you plan the dreamiest pre-prom hangout *ever*. P.S. We also made you the best playlist.
Decorations
First and foremost, set the vibe for the night with some shiny decorations. You're going to need balloons, streamers and some cute signs to take pics with. Also, consider a red carpet to give you and your besties the ultimate movie star moment!
Photos
One of the best parts of prom is all the glamorous pics you'll take. We highly recommend a polaroid or disposable camera to srsly level up your photo shoot game. Physical copies of your photos will have you remembering these memories for the rest of your life.
Food
What's a party without some finger foods? Your prom might have a delish dinner, so you'll only need some snacks at your pre-prom hang. Check out these recipes below for some easily prepared appetizers.
