If you don't have a car and borrow mom's and dad's well this is one night that maybe you would prefer to arrive in something other than a minivan. If you do have a car, is it up to the class of a great limousine? The answer is probably not.
Renting a limousine for prom night is not impossible for anyone, but it is best if you do it beforehand and don't risk ending up with no ride because everyone else has booked the service first.
Prom night specials for limousine services are very reasonable. Not every company will offer a prom night limousine special but those that do will make this extra classy ride available to seniors who did not think they could afford it.
When checking out a limousine service for prom night that offers a special use some comparative shopping techniques. 50% off a limousine is not a deal if the rates are double normal. Ask about the bottom line what will this actually cost, what are the terms when will they arrive, are there any late fees?
Confirm your ride, at least a week ahead of time. You have paid for the service so make sure the limousine service knows you will be there and you know what time they will arrive.
Remember also that a gratuity is standard for a limousine service. The gratuity for the driver is usually around 15 - 20% of the total bill. If you have paid for you and your date then you should make sure to hand the driver a gratuity of 20% of that bill if they were prompt and friendly.
If you are considering renting a limousine with a group of friends be aware that the cost of the limousine during a peak season such as prom night may require you engage it for a period of 5 hours or more. There is great demand for limousines on prom night and a 1 hour engagement may not be in the company's best interest, instead consider renting the limousine for the prom and then engaging it to take you to the party afterwards.
