1. Add Some Mood LightingWire Column
When you need to up the ambiance factor of your Prom theme, or change the mood in any way, strategically placed lighting is the perfect way to do it. But, don’t limit your lighting to the ceiling; think outside the box and use lighting in unexpected ways:

  • Hang mini lights under sheer fabric table skirts
  • Bunch mini lights with gossamer to create pathways
  • Put small lights inside glassware as table centerpieces
  • Wrap mini lights around bannisters or columns

2. Jazz up Tables with Centerpieces
Centerpieces are a great way to pull your theme together and give your tables a polished look. Either choose ready-made centerpieces that match your theme or create your own with things like filled glassware, floating candles, balloon bouquets, or confetti.

Balloons are cool and functional decorations that perk up any party space. Bunch balloons together to create bouquets and use them in front of doorways, as table centerpieces, or to line pathways. Single balloons look great on the dance floor or hanging from the ceiling.

Every dance floor needs a mirror ball to get everyone in the mood for dancing. But, mirror balls aren’t just for dance floors. To add instant sparkle, consider using mirror balls in other areas of your Prom space, too:
