The question of what to do on prom night after you leave the prom is one you have to think about if you are a conservative religious teen. After all, prom-night has always been notorious for some bad things, and parties being thrown may not be the kind you want to go to. Planning ahead can make a big difference in the after-prom fun level. Here are some ideas:
Dinner: If your prom doesn't serve food, you'll probably want to go to dinner. Decide on a place with your date or group. Unless it's fast-food you should make reservations ahead of time because prom night will be busy for most restaurants, and there may be other schools with the same prom night as well. If you are a girl with an upscale (read: expensive) place in mind, mention to your date that you would like to go there, and that you can go dutch. Since you're already dressed up, it's fun to go to a fancy restaurant even if you only order an appetizer or dessert.
An Activity: Some popular activities for after prom are going to a comedy club, playing miniature golf, playing pool, going to a movie, bowling, playing video games, or just going to the mall to parade around like a celebrity.
After-Party: A fun and cheap way to keep partying after prom is to have an after-party at yours or a friend's house. If you tell the parents that you want a safe alternative to the post-prom hotel bash they will fall over each other offering their homes for your small get together. If they have a big TV, game room, or pool, ask for private use that night, which means the family will be home but they promise to make sure to leave you alone. Ask the parents to agree to stay up as long as you guys do. This makes it easier for your friends to get permission to attend from their parents. Ask everyone to bring snacks, drinks, movies, and games.
Prom Sunday: Some people like to wear their prom attire to church on the Sunday after prom. It makes the fun of prom last; girls get to show their pretty dress and feel glamorous one more time. Guys usually rent a tux and it isn't due back until Monday so they can get their money's worth by wearing it one more time. Hopefully you chose prom attire that you can feel comfortable wearing to church! If you have a corsage or boutonniere, take it off after prom and put it in the fridge so it will be fresh enough to wear to church. If your date goes to church with you it will be even more fun.
Whether you use these ideas or come up with your own, the fun doesn't have to end when you leave the prom. With a little planning and creativity, you might have more fun after prom than you did at the main event! - 15784
