Get the Spring Event Planning Timeline
A logistics-first guide to planning a smooth, well-paced spring event.
It’s that time of year again when the glitz and glamour of gowns, dresses, tuxedos, and suits make their way to the high school scene. That’s right, I’m talking about Prom season. Whether your school hosts a Prom or a Spring Fling (or both!), now is the time to plan for this year’s extravaganza. You may have already begun planning for the dance and food, but don’t stop there! Don’t forget about this important and, arguably, most fun part of the night: the afterparty! 🎉
Hosting a school-sanctioned event for After Prom or Spring Fling is a safe and entertaining way to keep the fun going. I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite creative, on-trend themes to help you plan the perfect after-prom and spring-fling events. Let’s make this a night to remember!
Imagine this: a dimly lit room with twinkling string lights and star projections illuminating the space. Avoid unpredictable weather and choose the theme of “A Night Under the Stars” for your after-the-dance event. My team at Fun Productions will transform your room into a celestial space (no pun intended) filled with dark blue and gold accents to mimic the night sky and bright stars. Take this theme even further with DIY constellation stations, astrology readings, and space trivia. This night under the stars will be packed with entertainment and activities. A photo booth with a starry backdrop, a light-up dance floor, and an outdoor lounge setup for stargazing will be the final touches to make this the perfect evening.
Step on up and get your tickets to the carnival craze, the next theme on my list. Dunk tanks, mechanical bulls, and fun mirrors—oh my! Carnivals hold a nostalgic feel reminiscent of early childhood days of attending a fair or riding a carousel. This theme can be jam-packed with carnival games and booths like Bowl-O-Rama and Basket Toss, chosen from our selection of over 40 carnival-themed rentals. What carnival would be complete without snacks? Cotton candy, popcorn, and funnel cakes take this theme from fun to an epic evening.
Turn the lights down—we’re going NEON. With Fun Productions’ elaborate assortment of lighting solutions, my team will transform your space into a neon night. Bye-bye overhead lighting, hello glow-in-the-dark decor with blacklights and neon-colored LED accessories. Watch as the differently colored dresses, ties, and shirts shine under blacklight. Glow-in-the-dark face painting, laser tag, and UV-reactive dance floors with a DJ take this theme to the next level. Your students will be entertained for hours with glow-in-the-dark mini golf and arcade games. This theme has a little bit for everyone for a perfectly neon night.
Lights! Camera! Action! Rolling out the red carpet for the After Prom or Spring Fling event straight from the movies. Fun Productions puts on the iconic Hollywood glam theme for a glamorous evening filled with Hollywood trivia, an award show-style photo booth, and a faux Oscars ceremony. Attend Prom and win an Oscar? My, what a night! And yes, my team will be physically rolling out a real red carpet at the entrance dotted with velvet ropes and a starlit dance floor at the center. Tickets, please? NOW SHOWING: After Prom, STARRING: Your Students!
Aloha, travelers! Can’t make it to the beach? Bring the beach to Prom with vibrant florals, tiki torches, and tropical beats! Escort your students out of colorful Colorado and onto a tropical island. Let us transform your space into a beach paradise with a limbo contest, hula dance lessons, and ono (Hawaiian for “delicious”) island-inspired mocktails. We’ll take care of the tiki bar setup and decor, a surf simulator or mechanical shark ride, and outdoor furniture and fire pits. All you have to do is show up, ukulele in hand, ready to have a good time.
At Fun Productions, my team takes your theme and turns it into reality. Whether you decide on one of the above themes or come to me with your own theme, I’ll turn your wildest dreams into an exciting, perfectly themed After Prom night to remember. Fun Productions is your one-stop shop for rentals, decor, and entertainment. My top-notch entertainment will create memories that last for years to come. That’s the marker of a successful event! The themes on this list are only the tip of the iceberg of what my team and I can create for the event of your dreams.
