My Chapter calls our formal the Emerald Ball. Which is a month away and I can't wait. I love my dress! :D

We have Fleur-de-Lis semi-formal, and Sapphire Ball for formal.

Ours is called Red Rose Formal others on campus are:

Gamma Phi Beta: Cresent Ball
Alpha Phi: Bordeaux Ball
Sigma Nu: White Rose
Beta Theta Pi: Beta White

Sigma Kappa: Violet Ball or Pearl Premiere

we have the Carnation Ball in the Spring (this saturday actually, but i will be at the Kenny Chesney concert ) and the fall formal is called Phi Formal (it's where we give out all of our new member awards)

It varies from chapter to chapter, and also might depend on whether it is held jointly with another group, such as SAI.

We call ours the Red Rose Formal, since red is both a sorority and school color, and everyone wears red.

Ours doesn't have a name. We do it with Phi Mu Alpha though, which is fun. :D We just pick a different theme every year.

Ours is April 3. I have my dress, shoes, jewelry, a sister is doing my hair, I'm doing my makeup, and now I have a date. I'm excited. :)

Our other rose being buff, I suppose it's just as well that Alpha Gams don't have Buff Formals. <vbg>

Perhaps an all-Greek event could just be called the Horticulture Hop for convenience.

we call our spring formal, "formal" and in the fall instead of having a semi formal all the chapters on my campus get together and have the Presentation Ball where each chapters new members are presented to the others.

I think the grand majority of Tridelt chapters call it this; we use it too and I haven't ever heard of any other name.

We call our Fall formal the Rose Ball and our Spring formal the Ruby Ball.

I know that AKL names their spring one the Yellow Rose since alot of AOII's are in attendance.

our formal is called Sapphire Ball too. (its not in two weeks though) Don't know how many other Phi Sig chapters call it that.

Our semi-formal is called Winter Banquet (not too creative) :p
