To ask someone to prom, you have to get creative, punny and possibly enlist the help of your friends. Some of the top promposals we've seen involve food, balloons and sticky notes. While some couples will go dutch, the gentlemanly thing to do is to pay for the prom tickets for you and your date. Yes, it may seem like a lot of money, but your date is likely spending much more money and time on the perfect dress, hairstyle, makeup, manicure, pedicure shall I go on?
Pay attention to deadlines! Most high schools have a cut-off date for tickets and you don't want to be the guy who forgot to buy prom tickets.
If dinner is included with your prom ticket, proceed to number four. If not, get on your phone and make dinner reservations now. Pick a nice, sit-down restaurant that's nearby no fast food guys!
Whether you're going alone or with a group of friends, make reservations as soon as possible. All of your classmates will be doing the same and the best spot in town will book up.
Also, just like purchasing prom tickets, most guys will pick up the dinner tab. Whether you have your own car, borrowing the family mini-van, finally getting the keys to your dad's cherished '65 Mustang or renting a limo, make sure you have a way to get you and your date to prom. If you don't want to drive or don't have a license, renting a limo with a large group of friends is a fun and memorable option.
