Prom has been a traditional experience many years in the making, and this year was no exception. Tickets cost a steep $170, but that didn’t stop many teens from attending this once-in-a-lifetime event. Students generally met up for pre-prom photos and hors d'oeuvres before taking a limo into New York for the prom.

After prom, teenagers typically spend the weekend together. Some rent beach houses in the Hamptons or stay in the Big Apple for some big city fun. It’s the time for one last hoorah before graduation.
