Finding a prom date is always one of the hardest parts of the whole prom experience, but once you get up the courage to do it, asking isn’t so bad.

Guys and gals – if you’re looking for a unique, special way to get someone to go with you to prom, consider some of these fun and creative ideas from DressProm.net:

1. Try baking a giant cookie and then asking that person to prom with icing on the top.

2. Write out your invitation in a foreign language and give that special person a language dictionary to decode your message.

3. Send him or her pizza, Chinese takeout, or another yummy dish, along with a note that says: “Will you go to prom with me?”

4. Call his or her favorite radio station when you know that he or she is listening and request that the DJ dedicates a song to him or her – as well as asks about going to prom.

5. Place an ad in the school newspaper asking that person to prom with you.
