Brace yourself, because it's prom season. Prom is the grand finale of high school, aside from graduation day. It’s fun seeing all your classmates dressed in their prom best, rocking beautiful corsages, and dancing the evening away with their dates. Let's be honest, though — everyone is in anticipation of who's going to be crowned prom king and queen. It's a monumental moment for you if you're in the running or if any of your BFFs are. Either way, you'll need to be prepped with captions for king and queen pictures at prom to capture the glorious moment.

Prom night is one of those big events that you seriously can’t wait for. While you’re doing your best to live in the moment and have fun out on the dance floor, you’ll also want to take as many pictures as possible. It’s true that taking a picture will make the moments last longer, especially if you post them to Instagram. Now, every time you scroll through your feed, you can reminisce on your fave memories.

If you're voted prom queen, that’s definitely a memory you’ll want to document. Whether it's a reaction video of the instant you found out, a snap of your first dance in the center of the room, or a sweet selfie in your tiara, you need to share the moment with some queen and king captions for Instagram. Sure, a picture might be posted in your high school yearbook, but it won't fully express the king and queen quotes you wanted to say during that time. So, before you get carried away in the sequin dresses and dance floor jams, choose any of these queen and king captions to royally complement your pics.
