Prom only comes once a year and it is also one of the most memorable nights of a student’s high school experience. With pre-planning coming months in advance, prom could easily be one of the most expensive days someone will spend during his or her years in high school.
Prom has been known to be one of the biggest excitements every year for students of the senior class and the prom proposal is just as important as any other detail when it comes to planning for prom.
The prom journey is just as important to the girl as to the guy. He is the one in charge of making sure his prom proposal is just as good and as inventive as the other guy, and making sure everything else falls into place.
For guys in our senior class, prom is getting closer and closer and coming up with new ideas for prom has been stressful.
For senior Eduardo Guzman coming up with a meaningful prom proposal was accomplished through a lot of planning and many close teammates.
“When I asked my girlfriend, Gina (Gonzalez), to prom I wanted to do something big,” Guzman said. “ I didn’t just want to ask her face to face, I wanted to do something she would always remember.
During half time, Guzman along with the rest of the varsity soccer team acted like they were having a little meeting and started putting on white shirts with letters that spelled out “WILL U GO 2 PROM WITH ME?” and one by one they lined up on the field.
“My teammates had my back,” Guzman said. “I’ve been playing with them for awhile, we are all like brothers and even if we all argue with each other, we are really close. They supported me and they were happy to help.”
The proposal was a complete shocker to everyone watching and especially Gonzalez.
“I was really surprised because he’s a really shy guy and I didn’t think he would go all out like this during one of his biggest games,” senior Gonzalez said. “I had seen cute proposals in the past but this was one of the cutest by far.”
Guzman really aimed to make this proposal special and memorable for his girlfriend.
“For the prom proposal I asked my girlfriend the best way I could,” Guzman said. “To let her know that she means a lot to me. When she came down to get the roses, she gave me a tight hug, kissed me, and said yes.”
