Prom season is officially here, and it’s one of the most exciting events of the year! Whether you're going with a date, your best friends, or planning to shine solo, the key to a stress-free and unforgettable night is early preparation. We’ve put together the ultimate prom checklist to ensure you don’t miss a single detail. Let’s get started!
The Dress
The dress is the centerpiece of your prom look, so take your time finding the perfect one. Whether you’re envisioning a glamorous ball gown, a sleek mermaid silhouette, or something totally on-trend, Mollé Bridals has a wide selection to fit every style!
Tips for Finding the Perfect Dress
Book your appointment early. The best gowns get snatched up fast, so start shopping a few months in advance.
Bring a trusted friend or family member to help you decide. A second opinion can be helpful when narrowing down your options!
Keep alterations in mind. Many gowns need adjustments, so allow enough time for tailoring.

Shoes
Once you’ve found the dress, it’s time to choose the perfect pair of shoes! While style is important, comfort is key - you’ll be on your feet for hours.
Choosing the Right Shoes
Pick a heel height you’re comfortable walking in. If you’re not used to high heels, consider a chic block heel or elegant flats.
Break them in before prom night to avoid blisters. Walk around the house to get used to them.
Match your shoes to your dress. Nude and metallic tones are versatile, while bold colors can make a statement!
Accessories
Jewelry, a clutch, and other accessories can tie your entire look together. Choose pieces that enhance your dress without overpowering it.
Must-Have Accessories
Earrings, bracelets, and rings add sparkle without overwhelming your look.
A stylish clutch is perfect for carrying essentials like your phone, lipstick, and blotting papers!
Consider hair accessories like decorative pins, headbands, or a chic barrette to complement your hairstyle.

Hair and Makeup
Your hair and makeup should reflect your personal style while complementing your dress. Decide whether you’ll do your own glam or book a professional appointment!
Beauty Prep Tips
Start gathering inspiration early. Pinterest and Instagram are great sources for hair and makeup ideas.
Schedule a trial run if you're booking a professional stylist. This ensures you’ll love the final look.
If doing your own makeup, practice beforehand to perfect your technique.
Use setting spray and long-wear products to keep your makeup fresh all night.

Nails
Well manicured nails will really pull your entire prom look together! Choose a color that complements your dress or go for a classic neutral shade. If you prefer something trendy, consider nail art or a subtle glitter accent.
Surround Yourself with the Right People
Who you spend the night with is just as important as what you wear. Whether you’re attending with a date or a group of friends, make sure you’re surrounded by people who make you feel great and will create fun memories with you.
