18 BALLOONS:
18th birthday marks the end of teenage and the beginning of adulthood. It is a very
special day in everyone’s life because on this, a person cherishes the old moments filled
with love, care and shelter, but now the person is moving towards adulthood where she
will be loaded with responsibilities and independence of though and expressions. As the
debutant receives her 18 balloons, let it be a reminder that these balloons represent the 18 th
most important people in her young adults life. Balloons are known as a symbol of love,
joy and happiness. It actually spreads the message of enthusiasm and liveliness of the
party.
18 STICK-O:
Let us now proceed to 18 Stick-Os. Stick-O is one of our debutante's favorites, and
by giving her this gift, it will be fulfilling for her and symbolize love and care in her life.
18 BILLS:
Let's move on to 18 bills. Let us make the night more exciting by calling individuals
who are extremely generous to give our debutant a treasure of monetary value. These
individuals are truly blessed that they will be sharing to Ms. Angelica these blessings.
18 GIFTS:
Gifts symbolizes things the debutant needs to succeed in her toward womanhood.
Eighteen people are chosen to give a gift to the debutant. While handling it, the chosen
person will give a speech or a short message on why he or she picks that gift for her. The
gift are intended to be treasured and cherised for the rest of her life.
18 BAGS:
Bags is a sign of responsibilities in life. The things you carry in a bag reveal
different information about your current life. A bag’s symbol describes all your life’s
responsibilities and the things inside depict either the people in your life or the different
roles you perform.
18 TEDDY BEARS:
Teddy bears symbolize comfort, love, and cherished memories in a debutante's life.
They represent the warmth and support she has received from those around her, reflecting
the care and affection that have nurtured her growth. As she transitions into adulthood, the
teddy bear serves as a romantic reminder of her childhood innocence and the loving bonds
that continue to support her journey. It's a touching representation of the emotional
connections and the unwavering support system she has in her life.
18 CANDLES:
Where there is great love, there are always wishes because birthdays are always new
beginnings, new endeavors with new set of goals, sending birthday messages and wishes is
a tradition especially in our country, where we give value to family ties and relationship.
Tonight, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you these 18 wishes for our debutant. These are
the people close to the heart of our celebrant. Of course these people will be the ones who
will give her advises and kind words along the way on how to become a great and lovable
woman.
18 ROSES:
They say that being 18 means you are now legally permitted to do things that an
adult can do. It gives you the freedom and the ticket to try new adventures and learn new
things. The same way being 18 means you have now come to an age where you are
expected to perform duties and be responsible to your actions and do decisions that will
make you a better person. Like a flower that blooms and exudes its sweet scents to attract
bees and butterflies, the debutant will be swamed on by 18 equally gentle bachelors. So
withous further ado, celebrate this important night by having her first dance as she enters a
new world of coming to an age, the 18 Roses.
(Father’s Dance) The father and daughter dance is probably one of the most loved
traditions in any Filipino debut celebration. This signifies the daughter’s first step to
womanhood and the father’s acceptance of this period in his daughter’s life.
