Fairy tale evening remembered

TWENTY one young ladies made their debut in a traditional event held by the St Elizabeth’s parish in Dandenong.
The St Elizabeth’s Debutante Ball was held on 4 October at the Princess Court Reception centre in Mulgrave.
Parish member Wilson Fernandes said the debutantes and their partners from local secondary schools looked stunning.
“The scene befitted a true fairy tale story at the evening’s debutante ball,” he said.
“Twenty one beautiful young women wearing tiaras and white satin gowns made their formal entrance with an elegant walk down the stairs into the centre of the hall.
“Each debutante was presented by her escort and introduced by Max Lennox, master of ceremonies. ”
A reception followed festivities and music was provided by DJ Frank.
“It was a fantastic evening with the most superb, mind blowing ball of the year,” Mr Fernandes said.
