A Very Posh Formal Affair

Helping my Brenton (age 18) get ready for his gf's (age 17) Year 12 Formal. Brenton is her partner as she attends a private girls school. A very posh affair that starts at 4pm today and will no doubt continue on into the the early hrs of tomorrow morning. Brenton is going to look so handsome in his black suit with silver tie. I helped Brenton select/order a wrist corsage for his gf - stunning diamante bracelet with dainty white roses (was thinking red roses at first as her dress is red but the colour of red roses evidently clashes with the red material her dress is made of) and silver ribbon to match her shoes, accessories and his tie. I have not seen her dress yet as I want to be surprised when I see the photo's.

The pre drinks and nibbles and ceremony is open to the girls families only, so unfortunately Heartpoet and I will not be attending. Having her Dad not long home from Afghanistan will no doubt make it extra special for her and her family. From the ceremony they will be taken by stretch limo to dinner and dancing at a city location then ferried again by limo to the after party at a country estate. I can't wait to see the photo's! Above is a really quick photo that I just snapped of the wrist corsage that we have just picked up from the florist. I really wanted to show you more of the intricate detail in the bracelet part however it is quite humid in Brisbane today and I did not wish to take the risk of having the rosebuds wilt by having it out of our fridge for too long.
