Not going to prom?

For those who didn’t go to your senior prom, did you regret it? My sister’s wedding is the same day as my prom, around the same time. I could miss the reception and go to prom, but it just seems like a lot of hassle, and I would miss most of the night. I did want to go, but I’m not sure if it’s worth it.

Hi. I’m a mom with daughters. I have several guy friends who did not go to theirs and no, they have no regrets. I suppose it depends on several factors. Have you been to a prom before? Is it a big part of your year? Do you have someone special who would/could be a date? Will you feel like you missed out too much? And of course, how will it be for you and your family and the wedding guests if you miss part of the reception. I think it the long run, it would be better to go to the wedding and keep the night simple and special. Perhaps, you can join in to the after prom festivities esp. if they change locations or venues.
