In the United States and Canada, a prom, short for promenade, is a formal (black tie) dance, or gathering of high school students. It is typically held near the end of junior and/or senior year. It figures greatly in popular culture and is a major event among high school students. High school juniors attending the prom may call it Junior Prom while high school seniors may call it Senior Prom. In practice this may be a combined junior/senior dance. At prom, a Prom Queen and Prom King may be revealed. Other students may be honored with inclusion in a "Prom Court". Prom Queen and Prom King are honorary titles awarded to students chosen in a school-wide vote prior to the prom. Inclusion in a Prom Court is a reflection of popularity of those chosen and their level of participation in school activities including sports. This honor is usually given to seniors. In addition to Prom Queen and Prom King, juniors may also be honored, but would be called "Prom Prince" or "Prom Princess". The British synonym for the North American event would be Leavers' Ball, Leavers' Dinner, Formal or, informally, Leavers' Do. This is closer to the Australian description, although in the UK, some schools have called the above events proms. In Canada, Ireland, and Australia the terms Grad or Formal are most commonly used and the event is usually held for those graduating high school or middle school. In Ireland, the event is also known as the Debs, which is derived from Debutante. From Wikipedia under the

They have very nice facilities. Last year, someone wrote a question about Santa Anita in Arcadia; I checked them out, and they are very good, too. Sinc you mentioned OC, I HAVE to mention the Anaheim Convention Center, and the Downtown Disney Resort (Not just the hotel there, but many of the restaurants there have large private banquet areas, like Naples and Ralph Brennan's Jazz Kitchen.

Q. I have a prom dress that's all black and really sleek. it goes all the way up to my neck in the front but all open in the back. Also i am Asian with straight black hair. what type of hair should i do for prom? Asked by Help mee - Sun May 10 13:47:14 2009 - - 10 Answers - 0 Comments A. You're going to want your hair all the way up. Possibly with some pieces in front to frame your face, but certainly nothing below your chin. You want to have a distinct gap between where your hair ends and where your dress begins. A pair of dangly earrings will play up the effect even more.
