Ours was like $150 I think.

But in the end, you only get one formal (not going on the #yolo bandwagon on this one) with your high school mates, be cheap later in life :P

have they gone down in price :O ?

LOL

Ask the SRC pres or cabinet, I have no idea haha. Shouldn't have gone up/down by much though, the venue costs a fair bit (but it's worth it).

Buying a suit isn't really a relevant cost here, you're going to need/wear at least one for plenty of other things

There's nothing wrong with going alone. I go to a relatively small catholic school (we weren't even allowed real dates haha), and there was like 35 girls, and four boys, so there was a massive gender inbalance. Everyone still had a great time :D
Also, wth is everyone's so expensive?! Tickets for mine were $20 haha

My formal was in year 11, and the thing i remember most about it were the teachers grinding on eachother *shudders*

I go to an all boys school and our formal is coming up. There are a few girls i could ask but im not really friends with them and i dont not really like them too much.
Can i go to the formal by myself? will i get teased? what do i do?
Hey man!

First and foremost, if you really feel like you want to ask a girl, DO IT! I have never heard a girl REJECT someone for a formal. Girls love formals ^_^.
Personally, I don't think it matters if you have a formal date or not, and NO you won't get 'teased' because you didn't bring one t_t.
I took a girl to the formal that I wasn't close with and I actually regretted it [let's hope she doesn't read this lololol]. Being the man I am, I forked out ~200 bucks for this girl (limo, formal ticket etc) and she ended up wasting my time (she was a classical noobcake). I was so fixated on looking like a pimp that I forgot that I didn't even know her well T_T.

Also, let's say you do bring a girl that you aren't that close with, you'll still have loads of fun :D For example, my formal date was somewhat 'cold' so I was like "Fk this ganga, imma rip up the dancefloor" and I still had an awesome night :D

I didnt realise guys had pressure to take someone to their formal. I would have thought the hype would have been more evident in girls but I went to a Catholic Girls school which is equivalent to slut central and you'd think there would be some sort of expectation that all the girls bring formal partners but surprisingly there wasnt.

I went alone (damn you SDPHD) and I had an awesome time, I would have had an awesome time with the person I wanted to take but I dont regret not finding someone else to take because I cant say I would have had a good night. Formal partners are just someone for you to have with you to be able to enjoy the night by seeing their happiness. There's nothing wrong with not having someone to take.

Just because a guy brings a girl to the formal, doesn't mean she isn't free to dance with the Armenian dragon.
