A huge thank you to our photo and video team! **DISCLAIMER** The photos of the kings and queens on the red carpet without their masks on were taken from a distance of 10 feet away with a zoom lens. We wanted the guests to be able to have their memories captured without masks on with their caregivers. Thank you!

Who is still wearing their crown or tiara after a night of red carpets, dancing, signing, and celebrating?!

Thank you so much for blessing us tonight. We are so glad you had a wonderful time!
