The lovely Winona Mari Go had a regal and fabulous 18th birthday party that echoed the opulence of the Rococo era held at the Grand Ballroom of topnotch hotel Grand Hyatt Manila in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City.

Hosted by the celebrator’s ever-supportive parents, respected businessman Howee Go and wife, socialite-philanthropist Maru Go, the event welcomed elite society, fashion icons, noted personalities, and loved ones to witness her debut in a stunning peach Mark Bumgarner gown. The night sparkled with contemporary rococo fashion, from the guests’ astonishing outfits to the ballroom’s elaborate decorations and ornate details.

Meanwhile, people closest to Winona’s heart, led by her brother William and sister Wyan, were part of the 18 roses, 18 candles, and 18 treasures, and all expressed their love, admiration, and well wishes for the beautiful debutante.

Later in the evening, the celebrator changed into an ultra-modern rococo-inspired corset by Carlo Regalado. One of the event’s touching moments was the father-daughter dance, where the duo gave a glimpse of their close relationship as they grooved to slow and fast dance numbers.
