Our Debutantes and Their Stories - Episode II-Kristenn

There's an old adage that especially befits a girl when she turns into a young lady of 18: " The world is your oyster and your stage." The reason that you are so full of life and promise, believing that one can do just about anything that one sets her heart and mind into...even dreams of flight.

Well, our lovely debutante, in this case by the name of "Kristenn Salceda" did that old adage even one better! Fit 2 be Tied will give you a little due as to why.Kristenn at 18, A Journey to the Stars...So because Kristenn is a kind and romantic soul who share an affinity with the moon, the stars and surprise-dolphins.

Ten is a free spirited soul who wanders the deep recesses of time and space...truly a child of the universe.It was a celestial themed reception with decorations like a giant moon arch with starlight backdrop as stage decors, while hanging glittering & holographic stars & glow-in-the-dark celestial objects adomed the ceiling. The fact that Ten love stars, Sun, Moon, and Dolphins, the ballroom was sparkling with anything celestial. Even the tables are labeled with names of constellations such as Delphinus, Draco, etc. instead of the usual table nos. We had only more than 2 months preparation to make Kristenn's birthday celebration extra special. Thanks to the ever-supportive, cooperative and understanding Mr. & Mrs. Salceda, the night turned out to be unforgettable.Highlights of the event were Ten's dance with Dad Roger to the tune of " You Are So Beautiful" by Joe Cocker. And Ten's dance with her cute chubby nephew to the melody of " Beauty and The Beast.

Worth mentioning also was the 18 Roses because there was one different song for each participant, effectively describing her relationship with the them.
