subject: Hire A Professional Limo Or Party Bus To Make Your Prom Night Spectacular [print this page] A good way to prevent your prom night from turning into a fright night for you and your date, as well as your parents, is to book a limo or party bus rental and leave the driving to a professional chauffeur.
A limo car service takes the worries out of your special night, such as safe driving, parking, and getting from point A to B with as little fuss as possible; not to mention, you or your parents will not have to drive. You can spend your time, money and energy on enjoyment.
Dependant upon your budget and the size of your party, your limo rental can range from a deluxe town car to a party bus or even a stretch Hummer. Envision a disco dance floor and ceiling, TVs and DVDs, fiber optic lights all over, and powerful speakers with sub-woofers and amplifiers (and best of all, you don't have to worry about noise complaints!). Certain packages even offer an unlimited soda bar, which along with the air conditioning, can be good to have, what with all that dancing that is sure to be part of the action.
One way to look at the limousine rental prices, which average around $50-$150 an hour, depending on which limo you choose, and how many people go along for the ride, is that each person's share can be only $65 to $120 or so each. That buys amusement, refreshments and peace of mind for your parents, considering that a professional driver is involved.
You still need to do your homework. Only work with a company that has a good reputation in your community and is adequately licensed and insured. Examine the inside and outside of your limousine, either by browsing their website or lot. Be realistic about the size you'll need to accommodate your guests and get the contract in writing - trustworthy companies will have a contract at the ready. It's a smart idea to review all the safeguards and provisions in the contract and be very clear about your true expenses and obligations.
Most packages have 5 to 6-hour minimums and require a deposit of 25% of the total price.
Demand is high throughout the peak prom season of May and June. So, book early. If you procrastinate, you could find yourself or your parents driving whatever family car is available - and it won't have any version of disco fever!
Your prom is a special, memorable occasion. A luxury limousine or party bus can make it amazing.
