PHOTOS: Nazareth Prom-Goers Shine on the Red Carpet

Thousands of bobby pins were in place.

Hemmed and sewn dresses no longer lived on a hanger, begging to be worn.

Bow ties were straight.

The final touches of makeup, glitter and jewelry were in place.

And finally, after all of the preparation and hype, it was time for that long awaited event to begin -- prom.

On May 20, with everything and more in place, students and their dates hit the red carpet, each making a grand entrance into The Palace Center in Allentown where they would dance the night away and leave with memories they'd never forget.

Without further ado, check out the 60+ photos of red carpet walks and poses taken by Express-Times photographer Bill Adams.
