#1 Find a date

The first thing you should plan when thinking about prom is your date! Whether you are going to have an actual date or go with friends, it is best to have a plan beforehand. This will ensure that you and your date can plan accordingly and match.

Obviously, the most important thing about prom is your dress! It is best to go early while the selection is still there. Going in January and February is typical for prom dress shopping. The early shopping ensures your date has time to get a matching outfit, and gives you time to make any alterations needed.

Moving forward with the planning ahead trend is making reservations. There are two things you need to call and reserve in advance: dinner and flowers. You need to let your florist know ahead of time what flowers you would like in your corsage and/or boutonniere. You also need to decide on where and when you would like to eat.

#4 Nails

There are some things you cannot do far in advance. One of these things is your nails. You typically want to get your nails done within one week of the dance, but not much longer than that. I would recommend getting a color that matches your dress that will help complete the look.

#5 Spray Tan

The last thing you need to do before the dance, if you choose to get one, is a spray tan! Spray tans give you that summer glow that makes you beam with confidence, which is always great to have for school dances. I know I could never attend a dance without one! It is best to get a spray tan one or two days before your event to see the best, and fresh looking results.
