A Big Night for Amani!! Prom & First Date!!

Lot's of fun stuff accompanies your baby girl turning 16 years old including the world of "DATING!!"  ARRRGGHHHH!!!

Amani's Prom was conveniently scheduled for the weekend after her birthday so she got a 2 for 1 deal, Prom and First Date.

Corsages and Boutonnieres are not the norm here in the Middle East, (as a matter of fact Proms aren't the norm)  therefore it was no surprise that the florist really didn't have the best ability of completing this task.  However, we did end up with what we needed.



DRESS:  Amani was wearing a black & white plaid gown from Alyce Designs with a lace bolero.  She won the title of "Best Dressed" for the evening.



DATE:  Amani was escorted to the prom by her good friend Stefan.  They met a few years back at her friend Johayna's Halloween Party where they were both helpers to care for the younger kids.  At the time they were both playing Soccer.  While, Amani isn't playing anymore she continues to go out to the field and support Stefan and all her friends when they have games.

SHOES:  Black Jeweled High Heels from Splash!!  (Sorry didn't grab a photo)


VENUE:  Al Bustana Rotana Hotel in Dubai.




I think this date has set the bar high for all future dates.  Amani and her friends all seemed to have a fabulous time.  I am thankful for Stefan for treating my baby girl like the Princess that she is and dancing the night away with her.  I don't think the heels even made it through a whole dance.  ;)

Here are a few of Amani's friends and their dates.
