Prom night at Kersey Mill
Organising a prom means answering to students, parents and the head. We plan the night with your staff lead or prom committee, agree every detail in advance and run it on the night, so nothing lands on your desk at the last minute.
Every prom is planned around your school's timings. This is how a typical evening flows.
Students roll up in limos, classic cars or with friends, step onto the red carpet and are greeted with non-alcoholic welcome drinks.
Eighteen acres of Suffolk countryside make the backdrop for group shots, couples and best friends before heading inside.
A sit-down meal, hot fork buffet, BBQ or finger buffet in the Maltings Room, with dietary needs covered.
A presentation area and sound system for prom king and queen, teacher awards and a few words from the head.
A professional DJ, mood lighting and the extras you choose, from photo booths to cold spark effects.
A planned finish and a clear collection point, so every student is handed back to parents or transport smoothly.
Original oak beams, exposed brickwork and a large dance floor give your prom real atmosphere without needing to dress it from scratch. The room can be styled to match your prom theme, whether that's Hollywood glamour, a masquerade or a night in Paris.
50 to 180 guests
From a small sixth form to a full year group. For bigger proms we can add a marquee in the car park at the front of the building.
Choose the style of catering that fits your ticket price. Every option can be tailored to dietary requirements and your school's preferences.
