The Marco Polo Hotel Grand Ballroom was transformed into a regal space where vintage meets modern as Jessenia Angelia turned 18 with Modern Victorian theme for her grandiose dinner dance party.
Jessenia Angelia, a Grade 12 student at the Ateneo de Davao University, transformed into a fine young lady when she walked down the hall with her red, timeless, Victorian Mak Tumang ball gown.
The party, though grand, was intimate. Jessenia Angelia chose to be with her family members and closest friends and classmates on the evening of the night she turned legal.
She, herself, was hands on for the preparations of her party including the role of the guests such as for her 18th treasures and blue bills.
