Prom dates matching. Options

So, I don't know if people in other states do this, but here in Jersey it seems like it's a necesity for the guy to match his date's dress. Example, my dress is like a baby blue type of color, and prom date is going to match it. Is it really that big of a deal to match? If you ask me, my date could throw on an all black tux and throw on a baby blue tie and I'd be fine. Heck, I'd be fine even if he had no blue on. And, I don't want him to spend too much money, because he's going to three proms this year-- mine, his, and another girl's prom at another school. It's only my Junior prom, too, so I'm not going to be as decked out as others will be.

exactly. this is my junior prom and my date has a peach dress and the only thing I am doing is getting a tie to match the dress. Don't worry about the matching thing, it's really not that big of a deal. Now that I think about it, the only real advantage of matching is so you know who is there with who. Kinda like oh, so and so is with them because their colors match exactly.
