we have had a Daddy Daughter dance for the past 3 years. this is how we do it.
#1 hire a DJ
#2 ask moms to bake cookies
#3 PTO supplies punch, decorations, party goods
#4 borrow a background from our school portrait peeps
#5 have a parent take pictures
#6 we found a florist to buy carnations from (wholesale) for the Dad's to give their girls.
that is the BASICS We usually spend about $350 to put on the event, we charge $20 per Dad -- he can bring one or ALL his daughters
Most importanly NO MOMS ALLOWED! (except for the Moms running the event which we have gotten down to 3, after all the other Moms come and help decorate)
We'll be doing a daddy daughter dance for the first time this year around Sweetest Day (so as to not compete with all the Park District, etc dances around Valentine's Day). Has anyone done this? Do you just have food, music, photographer and that's it? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
