Prom - a few questions! =]

<p>Hi everyone :)</p>

<p>So I was recently invited to prom, and neither my date nor I have gone to prom before... so I am really feeling lost on what I am supposed to be doing! haha. I think we actually have actually figured or at least talked about most of the details, except for this: the corsage/boutonniere. I just wanted to know... how does this whole corsage/boutonniere thing work? Do I (I am a girl) just go out and buy a boutonniere for my date and hope that he buys a corsage for me, or are we supposed to coordinate something so that they match? Are we supposed to buy them together?</p>

<p>Also, what do you usually have to bring to prom?</p>

<p>Thanks if you can help! lol, sorry if I sound totally stupid for not knowing this.</p>

<p>I think you just go out and buy it. But no one really cares.</p>

<p>I don't bring anything to prom. I bring a purse with the usual stuff in it (ID which you might need to get in, car keys, cellphone, CAMERA :D).</p>

<p>Prom is just another dance.</p>

<p>I sorta decided to go to prom at the last minute. So among the many problems I'm facing, a pressing one is the table situation. It seems my friends or the few people I'd actually wouldn't mind sitting with have filled up their tables. I'd hate to be a "seat-filler" and be placed with random kids I either don't know or don't particularly like...</p>

<p>Sometimes, extra seats can be added to tables... our tables could hold 10, but 12 were allowed in special cases.</p>
