Does the saccharine side of Valentine’s Day give you a toothache?
Embrace the bittersweet nature of love with an ’80s-style prom for happy couples, bitter exes, and everyone in between! Squeeze into your fuchsia prom dress or your pale blue tux, spray your hair big, and dance to live music by the ’80s cover band supreme, White Wedding.
