FAQs:

Q. Are the dresses really free? What do I need to bring in order to be able to get a dress?

A. Yes! Dresses are free! Participating teens must bring proof of current enrollment in high school.

Q. Can I get more than one dress?

A. Each teen participant may sign up for one (1) appointment only to select one (1) free prom dress and one (1) accessory only. Multiple registrations will be cancelled.

Q. Do I have to register to get a dress? Can I just show up?

A. Due to limited space, all teen participants should pre-register to reserve an entry time into the store. Your registration is your ticket inside to shop! (No need to print out your ticket; you can show a screen shot of it on your phone at check-in!)

Q. Will you accept Walk-Ins?

A. As space allows, we will accept Walk-Ins between 1 PM -4 PM on Saturday, May 6, and during our dress giveaway hours between Monday, May 8 and Tuesday, May 9

Q. Is there a time limit on how long I will be able to shop? How much time will I have?

A. Teens will have approximately 45 minutes, from check-in to check-out, to select their prom dress and accessory!

Q. My friend needs to get a dress for prom - can I bring them with me to get a dress too?

A. As long as your friend attends high school and also registers for the same timeslot, you can shop together! Remember, each teen participant must sign up individually to attend!

Q. Can I bring my mom/sister/family member/friends to come help me find a dress?

A. Due to space limitations, you may bring only one guest with you to help you pick a prom dress and accessory!

Q. Does my guest need to also register separately?

A. Only teen participants who are getting a prom dress should register to come get a dress with us.

Q. What if I have to cancel my appointment or reschedule?

If you need to reschedule your appointment, please go to your confirmation e-mail and cancel your registration so that another teen may sign up for that timeslot, as spots are very limited. If you cannot find your e-mail confirmation, please e-mail getadresssd@princessproject.org to let us know and we will cancel your appointment. You will then need to re-register for a different appointment time. (Do not reserve multiple timeslots. Multiple registrations will be cancelled).
