To celebrate their beloved matriarch, Mellie, the Ablaza clan threw a fun millennial theme birthday. Great thought was put into every detail, such as their invitations with its cute Millennial Mellie paper doll.

Guests followed the cue of the organizers and wore trendy clothes and age-defying street chic looks while taking selfies with their phones and posting pics with hashtags and captions on social media.

Respected diplomats and top social media personalities rubbed elbows in the Instagram-worthy party.

Mellie was delighted to be surrounded by her beloved “BAEs” (special people who are Before Anyone Else): husband Louie, children Marc, Jun Jun and Czarina, and grandchildren, and reminded her friends that “You Only Live Once” (Yolo) so they should continue “Glow-Up” (millennialspeak for evolve, beautify, or improve physically, mentally, financially) and ultimately, lead their best lives.
