She was able to make all my Prom-Posal dreams come true with this interactive invite. It’s a dot-to-dot for your sweetie!! Because the print is that luscious dark navy, you’re going to want to include a white or silver gel pen or paint marker. If you want to go to extremes {we’re thinking sticky notes all over the car, balloons filling the inside, you know, the usual} go for it!! Put that little invite under all the balloons and your spouse will have a true prom-posal experience.

I wanted our prom to be a date we could do at home after the kids were in bed.  I didn’t want to pay for a babysitter and I LOVE our back patio and that is how this became a patio prom. We fed the kiddos and put them to bed then got gussied up for our special night to remember.

You could always set the mood with some fun white lights. We love twinkle lights because the bulbs are larger and give off more light.  String them around your yard, your poster, yourself 😉 — make it look official! If you need more décor items simply cut some stars out of navy or silver cardstock.

No prom night would be complete without photos! Grab selfie sticks and go for it OR you could set up the nice camera and a tripod or even ask a neighbor. Whatever you choose – get that awkward prom photo!

The next part of the date is one that we can all pretend doesn’t happen on prom night… but we all know that it does.  What prom night doesn’t include a make-out session?! Haha! Maybe guide your sweetie to the car for a little parking action! But be careful… there may be a Diva that set off her car alarm doing this with her husband… just maybe.
