im the social chair for my chapter and i planned our formal last semester. it is a long process...start as soon as you can. our budget was a little smaller than most other GLO's but it was sufficient. we had it at a building near downtown that was built in the 1800s so it was really classic and not to mention gorgeous! we also had a DJ but i got him for $300 off. thats another thing..having hookups is a WONDERFUL thing..it can make or break your budget.
we couldnt fit dinner into our budget so instead i bought little dessert trays and cheesecakes. we also had a cash bar. it was alot of work, and stressful, mostly because i didnt want to let my sisters down, but once it was over it was totally worth it. hope that gives you a little insight.
