SAVE THE DATE (and find one) FOR THE PROM!​
[FONT=&quot]Save the Date (and make sure to find one) for ?The Prom,? a retro-celebration to benefit the Seaside Repertory Theatre, a non-profit organization and the only professional year-round theatre company in Northwest Florida. ?The Prom,? which has been relocated to the Lyceum Lawn in Seaside, will be held Friday, April 18th at 7pm and will offer dancing to the party tunes of Hotwire, great food by Criolla?s, a full hosted bar complete with spiked punch, and crazy fun with absolutely no silent auction! The highlight of the evening will be the crowning of ?The Prom? King and Queen! Prom-goers are encouraged to dress reminiscent of their own high school prom so that attire will span the decades, or come as a ?Chaperone? dressed in normal party wear.[/FONT] Tickets to ?The Prom? are $100 and can be purchased by calling 850.231.0733 or at www.seasiderep.org. Reserved tables for eight are also available for $1,000 and must be reserved by phone. [FONT=&quot] ?The Prom? is sponsored by Dungan-Nequette Architects and Tracery Interiors.

Just saw the trailer for [nomedia]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYPBBDcT6k0[/nomedia] on t.v. Comes out on my friggin' birthday.

The moral of the story: Teenagers shouldn't be shacking up in a snazzy hotel on prom night, because that's how v.d. and bad horror movies happen.

OK! My dress arrived yesterday and it is beautiful! Oh my gosh....it is soooooo the same pattern from my original dress only beautiful instead of insanely ridiculous. I love it! It could be a half size bigger but it will work. Suck it in!!! I think I'll wear it in my next wedding. :yikes:

I'm getting SO psyched!

I looked into getting a limo but so you know how much they cost? $100/hr. That may not seem like a lot to some but it's making a Paradise Taxi ride to Freeport seem real good!:cool:

I've got to order Am's tux this week. Anybody know where I can do that around here?
:idontno:
And Punzy, I like Vavoom but was always an Aqua-Net girl. The teal can.:biggrin:

My dress came. It is about two sizes too small. I'm so sad.

I also got another dress from eBay, but won't be wearing it. It's a great 80's dress, but I can't do the color....

Ok...I talked to the rep and y'all need to be buying some tickets before they run out. This event is gonna be HUGE! We have our table all set and I don't want anyone to miss out on the funn! So...get your tickets or get a table. Not sure how many are left so you better get on it! I know someone on the prom committee and they have lots of funn things planned. Don't miss out on all the funn!

This is not only a grayt fundraiser for the rep, it's a grayt deal! Just think dinner and a band! We all know the food will be awesome...it's from Criolla's!

I know this prom is gonna be way better than my last prom. This prom....I was asked to come by someone's house before for cocktails! Yeah! Couldn't do that before! (Well...not legally. :biggrin:)

You may have to pull a "Pretty in Pink" and cut and paste you a dress...

I know that this statement will be unpopular but........

I really hated the dress that Molly Ringwald made in that movie. I would have preferred that she wear the pink vintage dress her freaky friend gave her. Instead, she cut it up and made that unflattering, bear-shouldered, monstrosity.:bang:

Agreeeeed. And really that mesh at the neck didn't even MATCH the other fabric. That really irks me.:angry:

But for the record, that's my favorite John Hughes movie.:wub:
