A note from Carmela

    
A New Chapter Begins

    

      
    

    
Her friends! I'd love to celebrate this special milestone with the people who make my life a little more fun and meaningful.

    
Come with me as we make new memories, and welcome this new chapter of my life.

Semi-Formal

    
Pastel colors

    

      Think soft and light — blush, powder blue, sage, lilac, butter, or peach. Long dresses, midi dresses, or a light suit all work beautifully.

Meet Carmela

        
Eighteen years of being the loudest laugh in the room and the first to say yes to an adventure. Carmela loves her people fiercely, keeps every letter she's ever been given, and has never once turned down a good playlist.

        
This night is her way of saying thank you — to the family who raised her and the friends who made the growing up worth it.
