dearest debutant, Mr. Frederick Porras, to Welcome each and every one of us.

life

AVP-Childhood
As she steps into this new chapter, let us take a moment to reflect on the beautiful journey that bought
her here today. From the innocence of childhood to the blossoming of her teenage years, every moment
here been a stepping stone to the remarkable young woman she has become. Through this Audio-Visual
Presentation, we will witness the laughter, the grow, the adventures and the love that have marked her
journey. Let us turn our attention to the screen and enjoy the story of Sophia Victoria—from her
childhood to present.
Seeing those precious memories of Sophia’s childhood reminds us all of how quickly time flies. From the
little moments of joy and laughter to the milestones that have shaped her into the incredible young
woman she is today.

18 CANDLES
As we continue, we come to one of the most meaningful traditions the 18 candles. These candles also
represent the hopes, dreams and blessings as she steps into adulthood. It signifies the warmth, guidance
and protection that have provided and will continue to provide as she embarks on this new chapter of
her life. To represent the lighting of 18 Candles, May I call the mother of the Debutant, Mrs. Cheryl
Anne Porras, as she lights the candles and give her message to the debutant.

Thank u so much, mama Che, for those beautiful and heartfelt words. Its clear how much love and joy
you feel for Sophia. The bond between a mother and daughter is truly special and now let us all sing a
birthday song to Sophia.

INTERMISSION NUMBER
And now let us all be entertained by an intermission number from Team Davao

18 ROSES
At this juncture, instead of individual roses, may we request the father of the Debutant to give the
beautiful bouquet. Each rose in this bouquet represents a chapter in her life filled with love, care and
guidance. This bouquet of 18 roses symbolizes the collection of love, respect and admiration for all the
men who have been there for her—father, uncles’ cousins and friends. The giving of bouquet of 18
Roses also symbolize trueness and sincerity. Thus, it means that the father wants the debutants to stay
young and beautiful forever. But before the giving of bouquet, may we hear a message first from the
debutant’s father.

(Message and giving of bouquet…)

FATHER-DAUGHTER DANCE
As a tradition, the Father-daughter is regarded as a beautiful moment between a Debutant and her
Father. As dance holds a special place in every father’s heart. As they take to the dancefloor, it is a
reflection of all the moments they have shared from her first steps, with her tiny hands in his. This dance
is also a symbol of father’s love, as he gracefully steps back and allows her to step forward into the
world. It is not just a celebration of the past but also a step forward for her future. It’s a reminder that
no matter where life takes her, her father’s love will always be with her.

(Dancing Father and Daughter…..)

18 TREASURES
As we move forward, we come to the 18 treasures ceremony. This tradition is rich with meaning and
significance, representing the cherished gifts and words of wisdom that Sophia will carry with her as she
steps into adulthood. May I request the sister of our debutant who will carry the gift with her as she
embarks on her new journey.
