I was incredibly proud of James and the group who made their debut on 14 March 2025. Their dance presentation, along with all the other performances, was the best I’ve ever seen—and I’ve seen many! I want to congratulate you on their outstanding performances; everything was absolutely beautiful. Great work!

We had such a wonderful night on Saturday, 1st March 2025. We can’t Thank you enough for your time & effort putting such a memorable night together for the kids and families. All the best for the year ahead!

My daughter, Meg Tacey, had her deb on Saturday night 1 March 2025. I wanted to thank you and your team on a superb job you all did. The dances were all lovely, fun and upbeat. We all had an unforgettable evening. Thank you so much!

My daughter, Hayley Ward, did her Deb and I would just like to say wow, thank you so much for giving the girls and boys such a magical experience!

They loved it so much and they all want to do it again. It was a very proud moment for us as parents and to the kids all so happy and remembering their dance moves was amazing.

Thank you once again.

I just wanted to thank you so much for such a lovely event on Saturday. The girls and their partners were so well prepared and impressive! The dances, music, presentations etc were lovely. It was a night to remember thanks to you and your staff. My daughter, Lily, had the best night!

Dear Carmel and Team,
After a long period of team work and huge effort by the Team from An Elegant Affair our Debutante Ball for the Sion Girls and Templestowe Secondary College finally arrived.
You and your staff’s unwavering support and guidance made the evening extremely special for everyone.  Thank you so much for a great evening for the debutantes, their partners and the families attending.  A special personal thank you (Carmel) from Ilaria and myself for all that you did to make their evening such a wonderful experience.  You truly are a gem!

I just would love to thank you so much for the weekend, I know makenna already has but it was honestly the best night. You are amazing and you will be recommended. Will miss it❤️

Just want to say thank for doing such an amazing job organising and preparing the girls for the Deb. It was better than I could have ever hope for. The choice of music, suits, bouquets, choreography and venue were just perfect. Gemma had an amazing night, she had a smile on her face all night. I loved the opening, created such energy from the start.  

I remember my Deb as being very traditional with traditional music and dances. They’ve come a long way! 

Thanks again for making the evening so special. It was outstanding and am so glad Gemma made it.  

We cannot thank you enough for the most amazing Deb experience for Bella, our family and friends. You orchestrated the most sensational event, it was exceptional. All our guests felt it was the best Deb ball they had ever attended, for one couple it was their tenth Deb event. The tickets were exceptional value as well. You created an amazing, fun filled celebration for all. As a parent I was so thrilled and could not be any more proud of Bella.

Thank you for everything you are a wonderful woman.

“I am a very proud mother of Ashleigh from a debutante ball you produced May 24th, 2024. I cannot believe what you do with these kids in the shortest of rehearsal time. They were so beautiful on the night.

Thank you for your determination and patience. Your results speak endlessly about you, your crew and your work ethic. I was left speechless and in awe of all the girls and boys. You work magic. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You have provided a special night for all of these young adults and their very proud families. Please pass on my gratitude to all involved.”
