It is so difficult to choose the best and most fun Prom day date. Prom itself can be very expensive. You have to get the best tuxedo or dress, the guys need to plan a great dinner, and you also need to buy tickets to even get into the dance. So sometimes you need to figure out a fun cheap date idea. Sometimes it’s okay to be a little money savvy, but you also need to remember Prom doesn’t happen very often, so you also can make it a memory that you will keep with you for the rest of your life. Payson had some great ideas for dates that maybe you would want to try some time.
