Introduction by the emcee
"Mademoiselles, Madames and Monsieurs, I hope you are in a very good
mood to pardon my French for I, Jessica, will be hosting tonight’s party.
Nonetheless, I greet you a very good evening and welcome you to this
happy soiree in celebration of my sister Justine Marie Tabucanon’s birthday
and debut. We would also like to say Merci Beaucoup and muchos
gracias to everyone, for gracing this very momentous occasion of
Justine’s life because as they say, you only get to be 18 once." Of course,
this party wouldn’t have been possible without the parents of the
debutante, so let’s give a big round of applause to Mr. and Mrs. Tabucanon.
-welcoming remarks of parents, then AVP
“Some of us have been fortunate enough to see Justine grow and blossom
into a beautiful lady, but for others, here is a sneak peak of her 18 years of
existence in one very short movie. Dim the lights and let us all enjoy this
video that her loving friend has prepared for her."

Introduction and entrance of the grand cotillion

“Time pass really quickly and life can be slippery, c’est la vie the French say
but thankfully there are friends who make minutes worthwhile and hold our
hands. That is why I would like to welcome and applaud the members of the
grand cotillion who helped Justine blossom into a charming rose.”

"and now moving on to the highlight of the ball, it is with our distinct
