there is great love, there are always wishes.” Because
birthdays are always new beginnings, new endeavors with new
set of goals, sending birthday messages and wishes is a
tradition especially in our country, where we give high value to
family ties and relationship. Tonight, ladies and gentlemen, I
present to you these 18 Wishers for our debutant. These are
the people close to the heart of our celebrant, and whom she
listens and confides to for inspiring words and friendly
advices. Starting off with the woman dearest to ________’s
heart, representing the mother candle that will be a source of
light for all the well-wishers for our dear ______, here’s Mommy
_______________!

HOST: Many ancient cultures believed that smoke carried their
prayers to the heavens. So, at the count of three, Mommy
Cynthia and members of the 18 Wishes, let’s say “May all our
wishes come true” and blow our candles together. 1, 2, and 3…
Everybody blows the candle
HOST: Let me share another good-to-know trivia to everyone on
how birthday cakes and candles came about as a tradition
during birthdays. Some believe that the tradition of birthday
candles began in Ancient Greece. Putting candles on a cake
was a special way to pay tribute to the Greek moon goddess,
Artemis. They baked round cakes to symbolize the moon.
Candles were added to represent the reflected moonlight.
Today’s tradition of making wishes before blowing out
the birthday candles may have started with that belief. Enough
of all those did-you-know trivia because at this part of the
program, our lovely and stunning ________ will blow the candles
on her birthday cake. And to complete that customary practice,
let us all sing joyfully a song I am very sure everybody is
familiar with, the happy birthday song!
Debutant makes a wish and blows the candles.
HOST: Tonight’s celebration tells me that the best
demonstration of gratitude in response to a wonderful
experience like this one can be contained in an overwhelming
thank you. Maraming salamat po for making me a part of this
memorable occasion. And if there’s one person here tonight
who is more than grateful to see all of you, that would be our
beloved celebrant, Cham. I’m giving the floor to our dear
debutant to give her message for all of us.
Thank you message from Cham
HOST: The night is young, and so are we, diba? Are you ready
to party? We have just actually started. Again, thank you for
having me here to celebrate with all of you. Isang malakas na
“Happy birthday, Cham! naman diyan. At the count of three…1,
2, 3, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CHAM! Our debutant is not just a pretty
face but also a very talented lady. To get the party started,
throw your hands up in the air for CHAM with the City Lights
Band! This is your host, John Irene Del Campo, enjoy the rest of
the night everyone!
