For Those of You Who Missed Your Prom or Want a Prom Re-do
Brooklyn Based and Bell House present the Pretty in Pink 80's Prom.
Inspired by director John Hughes and the spirit of one of our favorite decades -- the 80s -- the Bell House is throwing a specially themed prom just for you...
Get footloose with our 80s DJs and live 80s cover band, THE ENGAGEMENTS (whose members have played with artists like Q-Tip, Mos Def, Sharon Jones and The Dap-Kings, Steely Dan, Rod Stewart, Bernie Worrell, Dr. Lonnie Smith, the Duke Ellington Orchestra, French Kicks, Whitney Houston, and The Isley Brothers).
Capture the nostalgia in photos with our totally radical 80s prom backdrop! Bathrooms stocked with Aqua Net for heavy primping...
Dress as your favorite John Hughes 80s movie character to win the title of Prom King and Queen and score an iPod shuffle loaded up with 80s music!
** Free Specialty Cocktails From 8-9pm
** Free Snacks & Finger Foods
** $3 Champagne All Night

I own Robicelli's Gourmet Market in Bay Ridge, and I'm happy to announce that we will be running the offical Bake Sale at the prom to raise money for a tbd charity. We're designing 4 cupcakes especially for the event- we have a "Molly Ringwald", but we need suggestions for "Blaine", "Ducky" and "Iona" cupcakes. If you have any suggestions, shoot me an email!

I graduated Bronx Science in 1970, and we were too cool to have a prom. To us, a prom was a hopeless outdated relic of the old bourgeois, "uptight" culture, with its tuxedoes, prom dresses, etc., while we represented the future!
