It was the weekend of love and St Valentine’s heart must have been warmed by the happy, smiling, dancing couples enjoying Couples magazine’s first anniversary ball and dinner at the St Leonard’s Boys’ Secondary School auditorium last Saturday night.
It was magazine editor Veoma Ali’s way of paying tribute to the 12 couples who graced the magazine’s covers during the year and, appropriately, she teamed up with Ace Dance Studio to host the classy event.
Couples like Dr Haresh Thani and his wife Roma, who met in Bombay but for whom Barbados has been home for many years; the dancing Jemmotts – hotelier Alvin Jemmott and his wife Lydia; school principal Jeff Broomes and his wife Margaret were there, in the spotlight, as they joined other couples and guests for the evening in their honour.
Each couple was celebrated with a special dance.
