My fellow 2 classmates and I kept overhearing many complaints from the juniors about the lack of progress on their prom and how they were not pleased with the way things were going with it. So we decided to try and help Ms.Houwen with planning their prom. We selected a theme which was Vintage Hollywood, then after looking into a couple different locations, we settled for the IATSE ballroom in south Philadelphia. We proceeded to find a photographer and dj. We managed to stay under our budget and we were able to make it so that the tickets were not expensive. We added a candy table which was where the majority of our cost came from. From doing this project I have learned that planning a prom requires a lot of work also you have to be creative so things won't be as expensive, the most important thing I learned was that when working in groups communication is the key and we lacked in that. I wish we would have been more organized as well. But in the end, it all turned out really nice and inexpensive.
