A prom is a wondrous adventure. Most young people will only get to go to one or two of these in their lifetime. It’s an event that commemorates the time spent in school before going on to very hard work in a university. The memories created at a prom are long lasting.
There is also an air of romance to a prom. Though the odds are that the prom couple will not end up married, the events of the night are still something that is shared by both of them. Formal attire and conventional rituals make this day very special to girls and boys alike.
