The 10th Annual Daddy-Daughter Dance, organized by husband-and-wife duo Stephaney and John Odle, took place on March 7 from 6 to 9 p.m. at The Pavilion in Marion, Illinois.
John Odle said his favorite part about putting on the event is, “When somebody new gets to be here and experience the magic for the first time.”
A couple attending for the second year, Vince and Elijah, were spotted in matching green outfits. “It’s always a good night. Very family-oriented and always a good time,” said Vince, who is personal friends with John Odle.
The day was a dual celebration for Stephaney Odle, who spent her entire birthday working to ensure the dance went smoothly. She said, “seeing all the dads and daughters here having a good time means so much to me because I know time goes by so fast.”
The dance has been a beloved tradition for Marion families for the last 10 years and will continue to create lasting memories for dads and daughters in the coming years.
