A Limousine For The Prom

Cinderella's Carriage Awaits

Going off to the prom is like a dress rehearsal for a wedding. The girl wants to feel like a princess and the guy wants to treat his date to something special. There's the gown, the suit, the corsage, the expectation, the excitement in the air … everything but the vows, and there's plenty of time for that day to come along!

Travel in style, all the way
A chauffeur-driven limo is not just a means of transportation. And when you ride in one, you're not just a passenger. You're a VIP, a valued client who is deserving of quality and luxury. After all, you're paying handsomely for the privilege.

Prom season is booked way in advance, so the best tip for organising rentals of this variety is to plan ahead so you don't miss out.

Another important consideration is to ensure that the company you choose is reputable and operates in a totally professional manner. The last thing you want on a special night like this is to be told the reservations were mixed up and your limousine for the prom will be arriving next week.

What to ask when booking limousines for proms
Quality service is not a given when booking limousines for proms. Some companies whose business relies upon corporate customers for fifty weeks of the year, will withhold some of the usual inclusions on the basis that the clients are "just a couple of kids", which is totally unfair, of course, but nonetheless happens. Be sure to ask for plenty of information. Ask if (non-alcoholic) champagne is provided. Check what the time parameters are for prom bookings. Can you use the TV, the VCR or DVD?

On the other hand, some limo hire companies do excellent business from prom attendees and they provide extra services tailored for the younger VIP's. A 'soft-bar' is provided, serving sparkling grape juice or sodas, and music catering to teen tastes is on hand.

Also, some exceptionally cool vehicles are available as limousines for proms! Picture yourself and nineteen of your closest friends cruising to The Big Night gansta-style in a custom-built black and incredibly shiny Hummer! Or what about packing the entire school football team plus dates into a 24-passenger limousine bus? It's a private party on wheels! Featuring a 42" flat wide screen projection television, 18 speaker dynamic surround sound, mirrored ceiling with built-in fiber optics, comfortable fine black leather couch seating and optional party strobe and laser lights, would you even want to get out at the prom? Limousines for proms never offered a more thrilling entrance to the most important occasion on the school social calendar.

How to save when booking your limo

Prom time is expensive. Before you're even out the door, a small fortune has been spent on what to wear, hair, makeup, nails and tickets. You can avoid paying top dollar for limo hire, however, and not miss out on your VIP transportation.
As with most other travel arrangements, you can wrangle special discounts by making your reservations over the Internet.
Book early. The later you leave it, the higher the premium will go.
Organise a group booking with friends. Either make your reservations for several cars all at once, or arrange for a vehicle that seats 6, 8 or up to 28 prom-goers.
Shop around. Find the best pricing you can, then call your favorite company back and see if they can adjust their quotation to fit your budget.

Companies who are experienced at providing limousines for proms will be happy to accommodate special requests (within reason, of course). They know it's possibly the biggest night of their clients' lives and will aim to make it as special as can be.
