The cars, which are usually used for sad occasions, are now helping make the big night memorable for students who would’ve otherwise missed out.
Elms Funeral Directors in Weston-super-Mare, north Somerset, said inquiries can be made confidentially.
Teens can even request accessories like bows and ribbons to personalise the limo for their special night, as reported by What’s The Jam.
Luke Reynolds of Elms Funeral Directors said: “We understand that prom is a special milestone for many young people – a night to remember forever.
“But we also know that times are tough for some families, and the cost of prom can add up quickly.
