I came across a lighthearted but slightly amusing article on the BBC’s website yesterday about school proms in the UK.  The American style school prom is definately growing in popularity and the amount of money individuals spend on the night is amazing.  Some people like to criticise these events as being ‘too American’ and a waste of money, but from what Event-Pics have seen the last couple of years it really is a fantastic opportunity for school leavers to have their night after years of working hard.  The look of excitement on their faces as they arrive and meet up with friends is great to watch.  The kids love it, so why not let them have their night of fun.  Full BBC article here.
