Dan ing on a dream Reality vs. Fantasy - Both worlds consume prom night but all that one remembers the next morning is the fantasy and magic of the night before. The fantasy is animated the night of prom with all the glamour and magic one can imagine. The reality is the weeks beforehand spent getting ready and paying handfuls of money for clothes, flowers, cars, hair, and hotel rooms for all-night parties and early morning breakfast. About two months before the reality occurs the girl goes out and searches for the perfect dress. It must fit like a glove and be the right color. It can't be too tacky but it canit look like everyone elses. She will usually spend anywhere from S75 to S200 for it. And she will look all over south and north Austin and Expectations of prom night are balanced by the reality of being able to pay the bill. X Prom possibly Dallas and Houston before finding it. Then she must find gloves ioptionall, shoes, and other accessories that coordinate with the gown. Guys then have the task of finding a tux that looks just as good on them but also matches the girl's dress. You just donit get a blue tux for a green dress. After all this both the guy and the girl must go out and order flowers for each other that match everything. Flowers can cost up to S30 for roses. Some couples also rent new cars to improve their image. Sports cars and limos are the hot items for rental. Limos go for about S50 an hour. The fantasy sets in as soon as your parents take the first picture. There wil never be another night to equal this on You are going out to dine with your beg friends in formal attire and dance in ' real ballroom. As you arrive at th Sheraton Crest, a valet opens your ca. door and parks the vehicle for you in the. garage. At dinner, waiters are constantly refilling your water glass or asking i' there is anything you need. Afterwards more pictures are taken Cbe rea photographersb and you go back ano dance with your date and friends. Thi fantasy continues through the nighi because this is prom night. Even thougl you may stay out real late every nigh1 this is special because it is prom night.
