Prom season is upon us, but before the flurry of families snapping shots of teens in formal wear could happen, high school students had to muster the courage to ask one of their peers a simple question – will you be my date?

We found a plethora of promposals on social media, from students adorably serenading their would-be date with a ukulele to those who enlisted the help of law enforcement to seal the deal. We even caught Drake & Josh star Drake Bell helping one youngster snag his dance companion and the superhero Spider-Man swinging in with a Marvel-ously successful overture.

Whether it was a simple ask or an intricate plan to get a date, it’s clear these teens tried their darndest to take the rite of passage head-on. Here are the funniest, sweetest, and most inventive promposals we found:

If you would’ve told me when I was 8 that Drake from Drake and Josh would get me a prom date I would’ve thought you were crazy but… @dianacrofoot @DrakeBell pic.twitter.com/iN5itu1kQw

I got a prom date? (and in case you don’t know, the reason I had a cop come and help ask is because Jeremy loves cops and handcuffs) pic.twitter.com/aqeRMArruM
