When your prom is less than ten days away, it’s a good idea to run through a basic checklist to make sure that everything is in place. On the day of prom, you will be busy getting ready, so to make sure everything turns out well, confirm your plans and double-check everything.
Want to know what you should do a week before prom? Follow the guidelines below.
Confirm Appointments:
If you are getting your hair, nails or make-up done, confirm the appointment time. If your appointments are scheduled back-to-back, make sure you have ample time to drive from one place to another, and remember that getting your hair or make-up done may take more time that you think.
Practice doing your Hair and Makeup:
If you are going to be doing your own hair and makeup, do a trial run to see how long it takes. You don’t want to be rushed on the day of prom, and having an idea of how much time you will need to get ready will avoid stress and allow you to plan accordingly.
Double-Check your Prom Dress:
If you bought your dress more than a month ago, make sure your prom dress isn’t wrinkled. Prom dresses, much like Quinceanera dresses or pageant dresses, need to be properly hanged in a closet. If your dress is wrinkled, hang the dress in your bathroom, blast hot water in the shower and shut the bathroom door. The steam in the bathroom will de-wrinkle your prom dress.
Also, try on your dress again to make sure it fits properly. Your weight may have fluctuated slightly. If your dress is tight, don’t worry. A week of healthy eating can help significantly.
Eat Healthfully:
It is important to eat well the week before prom. Make sure you are getting all of your vitamins and minerals to make you look and feel your best. Also, drinking water will make your skin clearer and more luminous.
- Tip: Take pre-cautions to avoid bloating. Drinking lots of water a week before prom will help. Also, try to avoid soft drinks, gum and sugar-free foods with sorbitol or malitol, especially on the day of prom. These products will cause bloating. Lastly, avoid high-fiber foods on the day of prom, such broccoli, whole-grain wheat, brussel sprouts and cauliflower to avoid bloating.
Confirm Reservations:
Confirm your dinner reservations by calling the restaurant to the number of people in your party and the time. If you are a renting a limo or a driver, confirm the pick-up and drop-off times and locations. Make sure the driver has directions.
- Tip: If you are going with a group of friends, make sure everyone knows what time the limo is leaving--and keep in mind that people may arrive 30 minutes late.
Order a Boutonniere:
Order your date’s boutonniere and if you think it is necessary, remind your date to order a corsage. Also, check-in with your date to decide what time you will be meeting to take pictures.
Double Check your Curfew and After Prom Plans:
Make sure you and your parents have agreed on your curfew time. When it comes closer to the prom date, try to renegotiate with your parents if necessary. Also, get the details on your after-party plans. Will you be staying at someone’s house or a hotel? Who will be attending the after-party, and what will you be doing? If you are planning the party, make sure you have snacks and extra blankets or pillows. If you are attending someone else’s party, get all of the details.
Going through a basic checklist a week before prom will help you stay on top of everything and avoid last-minute stress. Fortunately, finding the perfect prom dress or formal evening gown is often the hardest part. When you are only a week away from prom, all you have to do it double check your previous arrangements.

Not including graduation, the senior prom may be the single most memorable event in a teenager high school career. For young women, this is doubly true. She’s spent all year, if not longer planning for this one big day. From the shoes on her feet to the accessories in her hair, every little detail must be extensively planned and thought out.
Choosing the perfect prom dress takes careful thought, time and patience. Many high school girls are bypassing department stores, saying no to bridal shops, and instead opt to design their own prom dress! Designing your own prom dress to have it custom made is an exciting experience, but there are a few things that you need to be sure to do during the design process.
Things to consider when designing your prom dress:
What exactly do I want?: The decision to design your own prom dress is usually made because you want to stand out from the crowd and your custom made dress is a unique reflection of your style. If you aren’t a fashion designer by trade, coming up with an idea is often times the hardest part. Grab some a stack of magazines and check out what Hollywood stars are wearing on the red carpet. Cut the images out and create a scrapbook of design ideas. After doing this, take a trip the local department store and bridal shops. While the whole purpose of designing your own prom dress is to avoid looking like you purchased it off the rack, it’s still a good idea to check out the competition, see what fabrics are in, and get ideas.
What style of dress will look best on me?: This is an important question to answer during the dress designing process. Even if you were not designing your own prom gown, you still want to make sure the cut, length, and shape of the dress is flattering to your body. If you are top heavy, you probably do not want to design a prom dress that is very low cut. Besides the fact that it isn’t very classy, trying to adjust your dress all evening will make you very uncomfortable. If you are on the short side, a long floor length prom gown may or may not be the best option for you. A floor length gown may cause you to look even more short, so look to design a dress that will elongate your body. If you are plus size, designing your own prom gown may be the best option for you. But once again, make sure the style is fitting to your body type.
Where can I find someone to sew my custom designed prom dress?: So you’ve spent the weekend coming up with ideas, you now need the person who will actually sew the dress! It’s really best to leave the job of actually making the prom gown to a professional. If you are lucky, you may have a seamstress in your family who can do this for you – if not, you need to find someone. You can ask your friends or visit local alteration shops for references. After you’ve found your seamstress, you can go about the process of selecting the perfect print and fabric for your prom gown.
Which fabric should I select for my prom gown:? Now that you’ve found a seamstress it’s time to go fabric shopping. Consult with your seamstress first, it is important to ask if there are any limitations, restrictions are extra costs added to your total price based on what type of fabric you choose. For example, silk can be a very delicate and expensive fabric. Some seamstresses will charge a little more when a client is using silk because of this. When you’re at the fabric shop one thing you will need to remember is lighting and how a color or fabric will photograph. Bring your digital camera with you and take pictures of the various fabrics that you’re interested in. After you’ve done that, go back home and upload the digital picture to your computer. Do you still like the color? Does it look the same in photos? The fabric that appeared to be navy blue in the fabric store may actually look more like a Barney purple in your prom photos.
What about my prom date, what should he wear?: It’s so easy to forget about the guys during the prom dress designing process. But coordinating with your date is really important. Check with your seamstress to see if she’s able to design a vest, ascot, cummerbund or tie for your date. Many seamstresses will due this free of charge with the left over fabric from your gown.
This should be an exciting and stress free time in your life, so remember that while you’re going planning for your prom. Above everything else, having fun is the most important aspect of this special night.
