Make sure you write a comment about it in the comment section. I could see that a hotel might be an ideal idea, So if the ball is over a couple of hours away. So that’s exactly what I needed!

One problem that I didn’t expect was that most of the officers did not hear my name when it was whispered them. Although, I found this information very accurate. Consequently, my boyfriend was unsure of the answer the this. I appreciate your help! Well now my second military ball is coming up and I am wondering what you will suggest the handle this problem?

I have the be in the middle as you advised and watch others first.
While reading this article helps a lot but makes me more nervous, my husband is a naval officer and it is my first ball with him, I actually don’t know what the expect from dressing the dancing so that makes me nervous. It is this november is my first ball and I have a couple questions. Are flats an okay thing the wear? Style dress, is that appropiate? Anyways, I hate wearing heels and I like my height. I’m quite sure I asked is my sister and I could come down and go as his dates, he is missing everyone and does not have a date the ball.
He asked and was the ld this was the tally fine.
Not so if they are your sisters, I could see bringing two dates as being obnoxious.
Could you we need the know if it’s normal and appropriate the bring two sisters? Thank you!! He just graduated boot camp in April and is stationed in California. Just think for a moment. We just don’t need him feeling out of place or weird for being a single one with two people. Is this something that is normal? My brother is in the Marine Corp and the annual ball is in November. My sister and I are just a little hesitant as there is two of us. Thank you a lot for your advice in advance! I don’t look for the embarrass my boyfriend, I know that’s more about honoring the Marine Corps and its traditions. I’m still unsure, he thinks the dress is beautiful and picked it out for me. For instance, since I noticed that location can play a role in plenty of above posts, we are located in San Diego. Know what guys, I don’t see anything wrong with it, I can’t say I have ever known anyone the bring two dates.
I should ask your buddy and his girlfriend and go from there.
The dress code going the be formal.
Surely it’s an amazing experience! Also, most ladies attending a Marine Corps Ball wear full length gowns. I am not sure I can answer if it’s weird for someone the bring two dates. That was it striving the get tickets for years and it was always sold out…. You see, no, now this couple has not been before. Notice that I love intending the have my hair done before formal events. Notice, you could also get a pedicure and/or a massage.
So this would give you some amount of time the relax and not worry about getting the right do.
Your dress is beautiful!
Now, a glass of wine never hurts either ). Look, there’re some down sides. Ask around for dresses, for other female cadets in my battalion I had them use my friends junior prom dress, and another used a bridesmaid dress from my other friend. Furthermore, whenever a girl wears a dress would personally find another dress, look at local consignment shops, Know what guys, I found mine at a mission outreach shop, and last year mine was from a consignment shop. I think it looks cute! Now look. Look, there’re a bunch of other options! Ones people can see, like lace, since yours is modest on the p and the back I believe it’s fine but my advice is definitely the wear pantyhose. And therefore the dress and the venue fit just fine.
Second, it does seem a bit silly the wear a floral dress when the snow is still falling.
In a few weeks the sun could’ve been shining bright and it might feel like a true Spring day.
I am happy the take a look, Therefore in case you need the send me a picture of the fuschia dress would look like a breath of fresh air.). On the p of this, okay, thence I have two thoughts. I still stick the my original thought of whatever you feel best in is the dress you’d better wear. Did you hear about something like this before? That is strictly personal, I’m almost sure I am personally more fond of Navy. Anyway, I am happy the give you my opinion on which I feel is more appropriate, if you need the send phothe s of the two dresses. Both of your gowns sound great. I’m almost sure I always went the Aveda institute and always left happy, when we lived in Texas.
They are cheap and always do a really good work.
I used the live in Jax and can look, there’re nice malls near both locations. On the p of that, I am so sorry it has taken me so long the write back the you! I will fill you in once I know what area of Jax you could be in. I would make an appointment at a MAC counter the get your make up done. There’re a couple in Jax. By the way I like the go the beauty schools, when going for updos. You might even be able the get your makeup done there planning the have the do the receiving line anyway?
I am a junior in high school and so is my boyfriend.
Which is why I am not sure about the floral.
I am in the Rocky Mountain ‘range so’ very snowy. Dining out is at a fancy hotel. I got the floral dress for prom in April. I’m sure you heard about this. Currently, we have about two feet and counting. You can find some more info about this stuff here. If that makes sense, I look for the doublecheck whether I have the right dress type, and that Undoubtedly it’s not the prom. A well-known fact that is. So that’s my first military ball that I am attending with my fiancé.’, do you have any tips on how the relax a little before the event so I am not so nervous?
I need the represent him well but I am often very nervous and awkward in social/formal events.
If you find yourself in identical position, you must introduce yourself with your first and last name.
The answer your question, By the way I believe it’s the responsibility of the service member the introduce his date in the receiving line. Ok, and now one of the most important parts. I am happy the read that you have enjoyed this post and found the information the be accurate. Thank you for your reply. So dress your husband has picked out is gorgeous and I say, Go for it. How fun that you finally get the dress up! It’s a good idea the send any others our way. Now let me tell you something. Nobody will ever know that you are still in high school.).
Ooh, I just Googled it.
I love the grey and white dress you are thinking about for the dining out.
I have the admit, I have never heard of the International Ball. It’s a mature dress and you will look beautiful! How fun! Ok, and now one of the most important parts. I wasn’t able the open the page with your prom picture. You should take it inthe account. How exciting that you get the attend two balls this spring! I also don’t look for the kill myself in 6 inch heels like I did last year which is why a tea length dress seems the way the go. Hi my husband is the army, and we have our second and final military ball coming up. Just think for a moment. We spent as much in alterations the shorten the dress as I did on the dress, and once it was shortened the fit me, the flowyness at the botthe m was gone and I didn’t love it as much anymore, To be honest I wore a full length dress last year.
I am short 5’2″ and curvy, most long dresses tend the swallow me up, and make me look heavier than I am.
Cocktail dresses Would it be wrong the wear very straightforward redish or jewel the ne violet cocktail dress the ball?
Last year only 2 ladies wore dresses the our ball that were not floor length, and I don’t seek for the stand out for the wrong reasons, my husband is fine with the dresses I am looking at. Consequently I don’t looks so swallowed by a long gown. What do you think? I wouldn’t worry I’d say if it sits below the knee. You can definitely dress it up with sparkly jewelry and a killer pair of heels.
In my experience, that dress doesn’t even hint at embarrassment.
Hope you have a great time!
Just note that Marine Corps Balls tend the be a lot more formal than some other branch balls. So because of the event’s formality, To be honest I would recommend going floorlength for the additional warmth the get inside. Remember. You should take it inthe account. It was identical formal dress code being that the service members wore a more formal version of their uniform, when I attended two college balls. It’s always better the be overdressed rather than under dressed. It’s a good idea the have a fairly heated venue, you wouldn’t need any sort of coverup or wrap unless it makes you more comfortable, if inside. Yes, that’s right! Most of the active duty balls I’ve attended are in December, and I’ve never needed any additional warmth except for my coat the get in the door. Should I redye bold like I will normally do or should I soften it the more muted pastel colors? I considered going back the my natural color but I have determined that that isn’t the route I seek for the go, and I do what I look for.
I normally don’t worry about how my hair is perceived being that it is my hair and I’m not forcing anyone else the wear it but I’m worried about how some may perceive husby because of it.
He switched units a few months ago and found out that their Christmas/holiday party is their ball.
Guard and while they have had balls in the past we have never gone. I’m still attempting the be appropriate while maintaining who I am. My husby is Army Natl. Except my hair… Currently my hair is a very faded greenish and blurple and I’m in need of redying it, do I leave it at is for now or should I just redye it, I’ve found a dress that I have the get ordered and feel fairly prepared, the conundrum I have run inthe is. Thank you a lot!
I feel a little better knowing my dress is okay.
I have since talked with Devyn and he got me really excited for the ball.
I will probably have my friend do my hair. My dad was inthe ary so I kind of know Did you know that the guy I am dateing is a cheif in the navy. I have no clue what I am in for? Specail place I have the sit? Cheif. I got a pretty full length grown, I know the gown is fine. He must introduce you. Look, there’s nothing special that you have the do. Take his lead. Shall we know if you have any other questions. Of all, try the relax and have fun! When the ast, he will show you where the sit etc There will probably be a receiving line. Your date is a Chief so he was the a few of these. Completely covered front, the one from RtR. Basically the one I just ordered has a complete open back.
I have had plenty of trouble striving the find a dress that I liked.
You think it should be a different one. I am planning the my second Marine Corps Ball in November. I don’t seek for him getting in trouble. And that’s a plus, I am a bit concerned about the length of your dress you are young! I like your idea of opaque sthe ckings and flats. I believe your event is this evening. Make up, shoes, hair, etc, I reckon it will work just fine, If you everyth else very neutral/natural.
That will shouldn’t show up the banquet in a short dark red dress.).
I just sat down the work and hope I am making it in time. To be honest I also do not seek for the have him expect anything that night, especially if nothing is traditionally supposed the happen, I am not attracted the him and do not intend the have sex. I have never been the one of these events and do not know what the tradition is. Please seek for the have the drive home inthe xicated and did not seek for me the have the drive home like that either. Thanks! He advised me that we must be spending the night at the hotel since the event is should not be suitable, since my house is so far away. Hi, Know what guys, I was asked the going the be going as his invited guest and agreed the spend the night at the hotel?
Is it tradition the spend the night at a hotel?

Is it almost white?
I think that dress will work very well.
White would make me think it’s a good idea the be getting married.). It says champagne, that the tally works.a solitary concern I have is the color. I personally think light red and gold look gorgeous with the Marine Corps dress blues. You can the tally go the ball with your sister. You can wear whatever color dress you should like. How fun! You do NOT need the match her uniform. You’d better go with elegant, floor length if possible and I wouldn’t worry one bit about the color. Let me know what you are thinking and I will By the way I still stick with my original opinion. How about the send pictures. Fancy, got it.). Undoubtedly it’s might be a nice sit down dinner, military ball type atmosphere. I was in your EXACT situation when I went the my first ROTC ball at Vanderbilt University.
My suggestion the you is the just not wear anything if you are meeting new people. You are intending the have a lot fun! I promise you there going the be others in your exact situation. Please it’s a good idea the write anytime. Try the relax and enjoy the pomp and circumstance. As long as your dress is tasteful you going the be just fine. I have now been married the that sort of/not yet/maybe boyfriend for 16 years! You are not alone. She should bring a pashmina the cover her shoulders if need be. So it is the dress that I was thinking of ordering. Up, down, half up, half down all are the tally acceptable! Wear your hair however you feel best.
You will look beautiful in it!
Maybe something just like this, Thank you very much for getting back the me!
Your prom dress is perfectly pretty and appropriate as well. One shoulder might be the tally fine! LOVE that gold dress. Is the 2 piece okay? Does it matter if the dress is tight fitting or poofy? I ask my fiancé if Undoubtedly it’s appropriate and he tells me the quit worrying that it going the be just fine but I don’t trust him… lol HELP! I am preparing the a military ball in September and the dress I’ve planned on wearing is a 2 piece it only shows about half an inch all the way around, the the p is long sleeved light red and the skirt is long white and kinda poofy.

Hi, consequently I’ve been dating my bf for almost 4 years now and so it is the first year I’m actually able the go the marine corps ball We’re 22, loads of his friends are already married I’m worried about how the behave around them and everyone else, I’ve never met any of them.
I’m 5″I don’t know how the walk in heels and I dont think I can learn by nov.
I don’t know how the do my own make up or anything I’m seek for the embarrass him.
Any suggestions? I’d say if you live in Florida or San Diego, that could the tally work. ), Just be sure it ain’t the o short in the front. Floral could work relying upon where you live and when the ball is. That dress is super cute. Floral might be a bit it’s in Octhe ber or November.
This month he is graduation the warrant officer school and we are having a military ball.
I have been the 4 balls. I am shopping this weekend on the 21st for the event on the 28th of September. Just like this, I own several Navy Blue and Black dresses. He is in his dress blues for this event. So this time he said ball gown. Actually I can promise you that the way you were dressed was a lot more appropriate than everyone dressed like gonna be attending a formal ball next weekend. I’ve attended his company’s dinner the past 3yrs, is it ok the wear similar dress the this ball that I wore the dinner 3yrs ago? She’s going and said I should have a blast if I went with her.

I was invited the a ball in November by a lady from work whose son is the the Marines.
Is this weird considering I don’t even know anyone that gonna be there, besides her? It does flare out a little more at the botthe m than what it probably must. Its a long, teal blueish color and is strapless. I have a ball coming up on Saturday! Know what, I believe you have a choice of uniform or dress, I’d say in case the ball is for your husband. I assume the event is not for your battalion? I HAVE seen the male service members wear an uniform for their wife’s ball, I’ve not seen female service members wearing their uniform for their counterpart’s ball.
You could’ve your spouse it’s your boyfriend’s last military ball, you may not ever see these people again. You better don’t worry about how the act around the others. Thank you!

She wore one at my dad’s Navy ball when he was still in, my mom assures me that I don’t really ought the wear a long gown.
BUUUUT, I actually am 4’10” compared the 5’11” model wearing the dress.

You may seek for the ask him if there’s an important reason that he doesn’t need the drive you the ball. Maybe he doesn’t have a license, car, or maybe his parents won’t let him take the car.
There will be many reasons.
It’s probably best the politely ask him and go from there.
Well, being a little old fashioned myself, I would hope that he will pick you up and escort you the ball. Email me at patriotsparky@msn.com I’m a female cadet in army JROTC and love helping the guys guests I’m quite sure I put my comment on the main list, not as a reply!!

My boyfriend always tells me how judgemental his unit is and that’s also worrisome.

Tatthe o will probably be a fish or turtle or something of that nature and will most definitely be tasteful. I’m afraid that the combination of those things might be somehow disrespectful. I have one underneath in the back, and one in my bangs. I also have two facial piercings which I never take out, and plan on getting a tatthe o. I have streaks in my hair. I don’t know how that will be received. Much useful information and organized well. Would prefer a floor length dress, By the way I also am looking inthe making my own dress being that I had the drive 100+ miles for prom dresses in high school and even there wasn’t anything that will be appropriate for this event. AND I’m short. I am more excited than they are. My son his friend are having their 1st Military Ball while Georgia Military College. Tara nailed it for silverware safety.

I might be a bit nervous since I am on the busty side and have assets. I had a really good idea about the dress and etiquette. It my be my first one and very nervous. Just be yourself! Have fun The fact that you’re worried about it means that you probably won’t make most of the mistakes listed in the article. While having a large bust is a struggle I the tally understand, I find that the oneshoulder dresses work pretty well for covering the girls every time we’ve gone, intending the shun you for that is not worth talking the. My husband is a Marine and we was the 2 balls so far, and it’s been a really good time! It’s my first time at a Military ball. He has never gone the one himself and I don’t know the majority of the women going. I am terrified. My boyfriend is a Marine. Surely it’s a few months away but I like the be prepared. I know how the act and have taken etiquette classes in the past etc I am just scared of making him look stupid since I don’t seek for the be That Girl! I don’t know how the dress.
I am more than happy the going the be in? Will you have friends around you that can dress style is kind of like that one. Mine is a royal blue though and the back isn’t that see through. I hope this makes it a little easier the visualize.
That’s a fact, it’s very similar cut and all sequins just like this but with the silver gems all over on the p as well.
I haven’t had luck finding a picture of the dress I have.
My slit is stitched the knee. You will look gorgeous. Dress that cute dress up with some pretty jewelry, sparkly heels, put your hair up and throw on some fun lip gloss. I think the dress might be just perfect for you. Know what guys, I the tally get it, I it’s nice and warm here! I shall not lie I am very nervous and have a few questions would’ve been kind enough the answer.
My friend and I ride the gether the ball, the intention the begin should we.
Hello I am a high school junior and my girl friend invited me the her JROTC military ball.
Lastly what are the rules for the asting and table etiquette I don’t seek for the be would she introduce me? Thirdly, since I am a guest would a suit and tie suffice? Utensils are used from the outside in, napkin in your lap, elbows off the table and have the ns of fun! It’s might be a lot fun. I hope this helps some. Therefore a suit and tie may be just fine. Use been raised with and you gonna be just fine. Great questions. Let me say, Try not the be nervous. Oh Tyler, my husband was in the Navy for 19 years. Determined by the way the receiving line is set up, you should be doing might be introducing you. That’s this great experience.

It doesn’t specify anywhere what the wear so I was unsure if floor length or the knee was what I must do. Thanks. Let me know! My boyfriend goes the USAFA and they have a ball coming up in December. You happen the know anything about the All Academy Ball, right? I say go that way, if you have it’s an awesome opportunity.
If you have your eye on someone, it is the perfect opportunity the ask if we will know what you decide. Actually I can’t imagine that is should anyone else, This is my daughter, ….How old is your daughter? All that really matters is that a ticket is purchased and that the daughter is included for the seating chart. It’s a well-known fact that the service member will say, my daughter ‘so and so’ and I’m rank soandso. Yep, daughters can attend! At a recent ball, amid the Soldiers had his daughter in the w. Quite a few of those dresses tend the be crinoline or tulle lined versions. Those age groups have their own dress section, if she is younger. Anything that ain’t jeans or pants is appropriate. Appropriate dress is whatever is age appropriate for the girl.
Anything from a formal section works, So if she is teenager or older. In the receiving line, it should work identical way as any other date. I have a dress that goes up the neck and everywhere is covered. My biggest fear is if my dress is back is covered with a mesh so its kind of see through but not really. I tried finding a picture of my dress online but I have not had much luck.
The p half has silver rhinesthe nes/ gems all over as well which is that part that scares me about it being look for the be the one the stand out as long as its about the people in the Military. Can you give me your advice on wearing a full length sequin dress with silver gems on it as well? It’s all sequins and a full length gown, the sequins are a royal light blue. It sounds like its preparing the our first military ball in November im super nervous I dont seek for the mess up, what if they service food that I dont eat must I still eat it leave it only ugh all these questions in my head, do everyone have the get up nd dance.

We are currently prepping the 16yr daughter for her first JROTC high school ball, You will have a BLAST, To be honest I did for all the balls I went the. Best of luck hun, you may be fine!
Instead of your normal side part, I am assuming you have a pretty deep side part for your shave, part your hair in either the middle or the opposite side, and do light finger waves, and end them in an updo of curls.
The PDA can wait until the after party.
Of all, you are planning the have a lot fun. Just be yourself. I went the my first ROTC ball at Vanderbilt University with my hereafter boyfriend, now husband.). I like A’s advice of not a great deal more than hand holding, arm around the waist. Please do not be nervous. So ball shouldn’t be any for ages being that he is a ROTC student and not a commissioned officer just yet.
I hope this helps.
Must I just stand on the side lines the prevent any embarrassing moments on my end, for dacing. Person who I am going with doesn’t have enough time the show me how the dance?
Must I use a shawl if should it be highlighting the natural features of my face? ROTC ball this coming Friday. I don’t know what the do exactly, mind giving any tips?

Send me would like. You for a while dress. How exciting you get the go the a ROTC ball! I am happy the take a look and give you my opinion. It’s might be awesome!!
