Debut parties have become such an important part of a girl’s coming of age because not only does it celebrate the moment a girl turns legal, it also is a chance for girls to show people their individuality and the image they want to project. Any debut party, be it big or intimate, shows a lot about what personality a girl has and how she wants the world to see her.

Here in the Philippines, the classic posh-party and sophisticated cocktails are usually the popular choices that could never go wrong. However, with all the innovations of the quirky and creative minds of today's would-be ladies, having debut parties had become so much more than just a night of dinner and dancing. The discovery of putting a personalized touch to brighten up a traditional evening is now all the rage in celebrating one's coming-of-age with a bang.

To help those who are still planning their much-awaited night of turning eighteen, here are some of the hit and trendy themes that could show the individuality of the independent lady within.

The Rock Star Rebel

Rock on with a party that spells attitude by doing your debut celebration the punk-rock way: Turn your 18th birthday party into a rock ‘n roll concert. Hire your favorite rock ‘n roll band for this special day. For your 18 roses, ask each of your boys to sing and dedicate a rock song for you before giving you the rose. Your turning 18 would definitely be more memorable because you gave everyone the chance to be themselves for the night.

The Fab Fashionista

This theme is excellent for people who just can’t get enough of fashion. Fill the night with glitz and glam by getting your friends and guests wear their dress-to-impress clothes. Accentuate the party by putting up a catwalk and a red carpet for a more celebrity feel. Create the illusion of an awards night by giving out special awards like Best Dressed Male, Best Dressed Female and other crazy titles. This theme would certainly let your unique style shine.

The Posh Princess

Feeling quite scared of deviating too much from the traditional dinner-dance party? Then make the most out of the fairy-tale atmosphere by using the Posh-princess theme. Be unconventional by setting up the venue like a grand ball and ask your guests to dress up like royalty. Not only would everybody feel like partying within a palace, but you could still carry on with your classic cotillions, romantic red roses, candles and chandeliers with a unique touch that everyone would remember.

The Cosplayer Chic

For those who are fun and playful, using the Cosplayer chic theme would be perfect; it’s not only daring and experimental, but it would also bring out the child in everyone. It celebrates our childhood on one final, memorable blast before finally kicking off to being a full-fledged lady. Experiment by having the guests dress up as cartoon or anime characters and do lots of other kiddie stuff: hire magicians, clowns and balloon twisters. Rent out “dirty” ice cream trolleys, cotton candy machines and give it out to guests for FREE. In place of your program you can do something like 18 Ice Cream Wishes or 18 Balloons where balloons are popped after your friends address their little speeches for you.

The Beach Babe

If you are the laid-back type of lady, or if your birthday falls on a summer season, then the perfect theme would be having a pool or beach party where everyone could just beat the heat and have fun with the sun while listening or dancing to relaxing music. Additional tip goes on the menu: to intensify the summer-feel of the party, serve barbecued food and refreshing fruit shakes.
