Plan a Great Date

While it can be fun to be spontaneous and do something on the spur of the moment, there's a lot to be said about planning a date in advance. At the very least it will show your date, and everyone else involved (if it's a group date) that you care enough to put some thought into planning a fun activity. Some other reasons it's a good idea to plan ahead are:

You'll be able to let everyone know how to dress for the particular date.

You'll be able to make reservations, purchase tickets, or take care of all the details ahead of time (you'll avoid showing up at a sold-out movie or a restaurant with no tables available).

Everyone will be able to let their parents know where they'll be and what time they'll be home.
