Prom Grand March -- What Is It?

• Throughout time, event planners organized grand marches to introduce couples to crowds of picture-taking parents and friends. Whether the idea originated with military gatherings or from the elaborate entrances of kings and queens, a prom grand march is still in vogue today.
• Your prom grand march can take place at school during the early afternoon on the day of the dance to introduce the school's prom court to the entire school body. The same area can hold parents and other guests that night to reintroduce the court and each couple attending the dance. Think of the event as a Hollywood red carpet spotlight that gives each guest a moment in the spotlight to accept applause.
• After each couple has received a photographic moment and applause under grand arches or balloons, you might invite parents to enjoy one dance with their teen. Often, parents of the court are introduced.
• The grand march is not for prom alone. Build a grand march into your wedding, quinceanera, debutante ball, or red carpet affair.
