Oak Lawn Community High School students enjoy an enchanted evening of dining and dancing at senior prom.
Hundreds of Oak Lawn Community High School students hit the "read carpet" showing off their dresses, tiaras, tuxes and even matching colored gym shoes. Some students stamped their own personal style on their prom attire celebrating teenage moments. There were uniquely decorated cars, but most arrived at Ashton Place in Willowbook in limos.

Ronia Ghusein, who once ran through a fountain wearing a $3,000 custom-designed dress at her own prom in 1996, knows how to help girls make a fashion statement. Growing up in the back of Eva’s Bridals of Oak Lawn, a store started by her grandmother in 1964, Ronia was in the unique position of having family friend Vera Wang make her prom dress before Wang became a big-time designer. “The gown was incredible,” she laughed. “It was everything I wanted it to be.
