At work a few of us have decided to do an Undead Prom theme this year. Yes, I get to dress up at work. I have quite a few grave-yard type props and another lady has a coffin and some more props. We are also considering "SPIKED" punch, balloons, crepe paper and "finger" food. But I am actively seeking any other prom ideas.

thanks

You need a place set up for the couples to take their pictures. Scene setters would make that pretty easy. A zombie band would be cool, especially if they were wearing the old '70s style tuxes!

I asked around and no musical talent at all. Which may help the sound . Oh another thing I did not mention is we will have TOTs. Basically I work as a computer nerd for a large corp. Every year the division gets to dress up thier floor and them selves. We have costume contests and a floor contest. Then people bring in thier kids to TOT. We were thinking of a pix area and scene setters is an excellent idea if we go that route. Any other ideas, prom has been too long ago for me. All I can go off of is movie proms at this point .

So any other ideas?
Thanks

Yeah Rikki, I like the zombie band idea!
All the guests could be dressed up as zombies? It would be a real undead prom .

That is the hope, the people on the floor that want to participate have an undead costume. Vamp, mummy, zombie, ghost, ghoul, skelly, etc. Maybe even Frankenstein (was he undead?). But then make it weird by being a prom, with a disco ball, balloons, etc. Which is the part I am looking for idea on, it's been 20 years since my prom, which must mean a reunion is coming up, now that is scary.

Another idea we have had is electric chairs for the King and Queen of the prom. We may even have that be our photo op place...

thanks

OK, now I get It. Sorry I can't really help there's no prom in France !
If I grab something, I'll tell you

Don't forget about Grand March. (remember.....when every couple struts there stuff for the parents)

Parents at the prom, now that is truely horrifying. I can't remember anything like that I guess different traditions for different areas. I think the closest we came to something like that was a "conga" line to Mony, Mony. But we were using slightly altered lyrics.

The Grand March was held outside as couples were arriving. Parents stood outside the school and took pictures as everyone was going inside. After their kid went in, they typically left.
