A Midsummer Night's Moonlight
-
Take a page from William Shakespeare's classic play with a prom theme inspired by
"A Midsummer Night's Dream." The prom committee can watch or read the play to familiarize themselves with the plot and opportunities for prom decorations. Transform the prom venue into an enchanted moonlit forest, like the forest in the play. Glittery decorations will add to the aesthetic. The ladies attending the prom can live out their fantasies of dressing like a fairy princess during the final high school dance.
Moonlight in the Garden of Good and Evil
-
Teens are especially interested in stories with plots of good versus evil, so a prom theme encouraging teens to explore this contrast will be especially popular. Prom-goers can make their outfits distinctive by choosing an angelic white or a devilish red. Alternatively, some prom-goers can sport a set of fake vampire fangs or accessorize with a golden halo. The prom venue can be decorated like a moonlit garden, with angels and gargoyles interspersed throughout.

Moonlight at the Oasis
-
A moonlit desert theme is practical and exotic. Prom committees in the desserts of Southwest can easily profit from their natural habitat with Moonlight at the Oasis. Additionally, proms held in colder climates may enjoy the exotic challenge of creating a desert complete with an oasis for a perfect moonlight prom theme. Sandy trails and artistically positioned palm trees and cacti will transport prom attendees to distant sandy banks. Include a starry ceiling with a large moon to give the impression of wide dessert skies.
Intergalactic Moonlight
-
High school students will be over the moon with this futuristic prom theme. Decorate the prom venue with metallic ornaments and include some faux asteroids and the planets of the solar system. Situate a large moon as a focal point of the venue. Glow-in-the-dark bracelets and room décor will take moonlight prom theme to the next level. Finally, provide an intergalactic background for prom photos so students have a permanent record of their night by the moon.
