Senior prom preview

On June 2nd, Cherry Hill East presents its 2022 senior prom. With the venue set for the Crystal Tea Ballroom in Philadelphia, there is no doubt that it will be a night to remember. 

The tickets are estimated to be around $100, and seniors are already scouting out dresses. In fact, most already have them picked out, though this shouldn’t be surprising as young girls dream about their proms from the moment they know what it is. 

Lydia Chen (‘22), senior class vice president says that it will be “your classic prom” with the prom committee going for the theme of absolutely none. In other words, it will be the prom that you see on the TV screen. The committee is planning to have an elegant theme with gold, white, and silver being the main color scheme. 

A lot is still in the works and many things still have to be finalized, but the venue is most certainly going to be a hit amongst the students it would seem. Famous for hosting weddings and corporate galas, the Philadelphia venue should have no problem perfecting a prom for deserving seniors. 

Seniors can look forward to a great DJ and of course, a photobooth. Like any classic prom though, hopes are high that the dance floor is filled with eager students. 

Like any major event, prom requires a lot of planning and when talking to Chen, she said that SGA has been planning since the end of spirit week. A lot of work has been going into the senior prom to make it the best occasion possible, and while there is still much to be done, everything seems to be going smoothly and the senior prom should be just as magical as we see on television.
