Cinderella's Ball
Greenville (Tuesday)

TUESDAY, October 1, 2024

The greatest blessing of having a daughter is the opportunity to set the standard for her future husband. As dads, we are given the privilege to set the bar for the young man who will one day ask for her hand in marriage. While the opportunities to set such standards arise on a daily basis, dads must capture special moments to take the lead and show his daughter the valuable gift she is to him. We must fill her longing for male affection and affirmation.

Imagine a night where dad gives all of his attention to his daughter as they enjoy an elegant meal, encouraging messages and an enchanted night of dancing. This is no fairy tale night. It’s a reality at Cinderella’s Ball.

This annual event is a family favorite as dads and daughters enjoy a special night with each other as they create memories that will last a lifetime. More than that, it positions fathers on a platform of praying blessings over his daughter and showing her the jewel she is in his life.

What they say

FATHER

My daughter, Kaitlin and I, have attended the Cinderella Ball every year. It is the single event she looks forward to more than any other each year. She starts asking in January when tickets go on sale.

WOULD YOU CONSIDER BEING A

place setter

Place Setter’s don't purchase tickets and don't need to "fill a table." This is simply a $200 gift per table that covers the cost for food, linens and decorations at one of our Cinderella's Ball events.

Frequently Asked Questions

What ages is this event for?

This is our #1 question. The event is designed for girls in the First Grade and up. We have even had some college girls attend. We let the fathers make this decision. If a dad brings a younger girl, he will have to make a few accommodations.

Is there a strict dress code?

We want this to be a great experience for daughters and dads. Dress as nicely as you feel will make the event special. We have had dads dress in everything from jeans and dress shirt to military dress blues. However, most dads wear a suit and tie.

How long does the event last?

We start at 6:00pm, but encourage dates to show up a little early to enjoy photo ops and socializing with friends. Dates can leave as soon as they want when the dancing begins, which is around 7:45pm. For those who stay until the end, the event usually wraps up around 9:00pm.

What is the program for the evening?

Fathers and daughters are announced as they arrive, where they walk the red carpet and are greeted by Cinderella and Prince Charming and have their pictures taken with the royal couple. Before dinner, there are punch and photo opportunities. Next there is an elegant buffet dinner and a program which includes, music, entertainment, an encouraging message from our speaker, and a very special father-daughter time. Finally, the coup-de-grace, dancing. We begin with a special waltz, followed by "the Gauntlet," your favorite line dances, and much more.

Can a grandfather bring his granddaughter?

ABSOLUTELY! We recognize that some little girls may not have a dad in the home. By all means, her grandfather can be her date for this event.

Can a dad bring more than one daughter?

Absolutely! It’s a challenge, but it can be done. In the cities where we host multiple nights, many dads like to bring one daughter to each night.

Will there be allergy-friendly food options available at the event?

While we strive to accommodate various dietary needs, due to the logistics involved in catering for a large event, we're unable to guarantee specific allergy-friendly options. We recommend that attendees with dietary restrictions bring their own safe options to ensure they have suitable food to enjoy during the event. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us. We're here to help ensure everyone has an enjoyable experience at the event.

How can I be a sponsor?

If you would like to support this event, we have several sponsorship opportunities. You can be a title sponsor, an event sponsor, a Place Setter (table sponsor), or even scholarship a father and daughter.
