No turning into a pumpkin at midnight on prom night!  When you are all dressed up, you need somewhere to strut your style.  Most grads want to keep the fun going all night, and with some advanced planning, you can put together an action packed evening that will keep you going until sunrise.  Here are the top five ideas for a memorable and entertaining post prom party.

1. Karaoke Night – Transition from Prom Night to the Grammy’s by introducing your inner rock star.  You are already dressed for an awards ceremony, so why not steal the show?  If you live in a large metropolitan area, many Korean neighborhoods have late night karaoke lounges with large rooms for groups.  If you are really lucky, they may also serve Korean food, so you can have a midnight snack of bibimbap!  If a karaoke lounge is not accessible, you can easily rent a karaoke machine instead.

2. Hollywood Night – If relaxing and watching movies with your friends is more your pace, plan a fun movie night with a trilogy of movies to catch up with.  Set it up with some great props like a large popcorn maker, a variety of unique sodas, and junior mints for everyone!  Make sure you have lots of comfy seating areas, pillows and blankets… it may end up feeling more like a pajama party once everyone settles in for the night.

3. Casino Night – Go old school glamor with a Casino Royale or Mad Men inspired casino night.  You can rent gaming tables, as well as hire dealers to teach you how to play and manage the tables.  How sophisticated!

4. Bonfire (Beach) Party – If you have access to a beach or large outdoor space, throw your party around a campfire.  Set up can be as simple as a lawn chairs or blankets around the fire, with a few coolers for beverages.  Set up an inspired hot dog and s’mores station with some interesting condiments to liven up these camping staples.

5.  Finish Line Brunch – You made it to see the light of dawn, congratulations!  Instead of starting your day, finish your evening with a hearty brunch buffet.  Carb load up, you earned it!
