This past week, our school had the pleasure of hosting our prom at Brookside Gardens in Wheaton, MD, and it was truly a wonderful experience from start to finish. A huge part of that success was thanks to Jennifer Bland, who was instrumental in the planning stages. She made sure we were completely prepared, even creating two different floor plans: one for our intended outdoor space and a backup for the indoor area. It turned out to be incredibly foresightful, as it rained on prom day, and we had to move indoors! Her proactive planning ensured a smooth and stress-free transition. On the day of the prom, the event staff, Steven and Christina, were incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to ensure everything ran perfectly. Steven, in particular, was exceptional. As soon as prom ended, he was right there, efficiently putting away chairs, which we greatly appreciated. Both he and Christina were invaluable in making the evening a success. We wholeheartedly recommend Brookside Gardens for any upcoming events. Their beautiful venue, combined with their outstanding and attentive staff, made our prom an unforgettable night.
