this one dance you won’t forget!
6 Weeks Before Dance
Checklist
___ Start planning the night with your friends. Even ask mom or dad if they have
any specifics to include in your planning. Decide on whether or not you want to
go with a date or team up with friends and go as a
group. Either way will be a total blast.
___ Find your dress! Ask your friends or mom to join you on your
search.
___ Plan out your hairdo. Experiment with your cut and style.
4 Weeks Before Dance Checklist
___Plan your meal. If you’re planning on going to dinner with your friends before
the dance, look into making reservations or if you plan to eat at home, look into
some healthy options for the big night.
___ Make sure you have a ride to and from the dance planned out.
___ If you plan to get your hair, nails or makeup done by a professional, start
making appointments now.
___ Pick out the dress. Go ahead and try it on and make sure it fits! You may need
to get alterations, which can also take a few weeks.

you want to worry about is uncomfortable shoes!
