Prom: Newport Style

After posting about Floral Ice Cubes, I have to share perhaps one of the more adorable ideas I've heard in a while!

So do you remember that episode of Laguna Beach, you know the one where Talan decorates the garage with balloons, flowers and rose petals everywhere?

Some students and pop culture experts credit MTV's "Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County" reality series from a few years ago for sparking this new wave in dramatic prom proposals. On the show, male students came up with innovative invitations, including a guy who set up a kiddie pool at a girl's home with a note that said, "Of all the fish in the sea, will you go to prom with me."

Heather Levine, fashion and beauty editor at promspot.com, said one of the main reasons the prom proposals are so big today is that guys are competitive.

Well in talking to a friend about his Prom debacles, he's come up with the perfect proposal (just hasn't figured out the perfect date.)

His plan? Take a huge heart shaped container, make a gigantic red ice cube with his invite sealed in the center, and leave it on her doorstep with a sledgehammer to have a little fun figuring out who her date is!

Back in the day, we just had our plain o'le boring prom proposals, that generally involved a sweaty nervous boy who was barely able to sputter out the words, "Will you go to prom with me?" It's good to see the confidence growing...
