Here's How You Plan the Perfect Debut
2
Your 18th birthday happens only once and it's
totally understandable if you're breaking out in
hives just thinking of how to pull off the party
of a lifetime. But planning a debut shouldn't
stress you out!
3
Attend a Debut Fair
This will help you get the best vendors and
suppliers. If you're lucky, you might even be
able to book them for a discounted price!
4
Settle on a Theme
Planning around a color, a motif, or a particular
theme can make things a lot easier. It'll help
you decide what type of decor to prepare, what
kind of dress to wear, and even what food to
serve!
5
Always be Mindful of Your Expenses
Even if your parents have given you free reign on
what to spend on, it's important to keep your
budget at a reasonable amount. Try to save on
souvenirs by having your girlfriends help you DIY
them or if you're art-savvy, make your own
invites!
6
Manage Your Time Wisely
Just because you're super busy coordinating with
your suppliers and guests doesn't mean you get to
skip school. Make sure you allot "debut time" and
"study time" accordingly.
7
Find Inspiration Everywhere
Love watching awards shows? Take note of dresses
you see on the red carpet and save photos as pegs
for when you go to your seamstress or designer. 
8
Good Food, Good party
It doesn't even have to be a 5-star hotel menu
kind of meal. Stick with your favorites and make
sure that your guests will enjoy them, too!

Know That There's no One Way to Celebrate Turning
18
If you don't need a cotillion, don't force
yourself to have one. If you prefer to celebrate
with a handful of your closest friends by the
beach you grew up in, go right ahead! Remember
that there really are no rules to debuts.
Celebrate the way you want -it's your day after
all.
