Ariel Arce, president of Arce Dairy Food Corp., and his wife, hotelier-turned-entrepreneur Mitch Garcia-Arce, celebrated the fifth birthday of their son Amos at the Manila Ballroom of Marriott Hotel Manila. Led by the celebrant himself, many of the event’s young guests, in keeping with the party’s Superhero Extravaganza theme, were dressed as their favorite superhero.

The event was nothing short of a blockbuster, with close friends and family gathering to partake in the superhero festivities. The ballroom was a sight to behold, courtesy of Storytellers Management Inc, as it was adorned with dynamic superhero decor, from soaring balloons to life-sized cutouts.

Dressed as the mighty Thor, Amos, the birthday boy, reveled in his favorite superheroes, enjoying an action-packed program featuring magic tricks, games, ventriloquy, and a bubble show. The culinary journey was just as thrilling, with a buffet spread to delight the palate. Guests indulged in the delectable flavors of Arce Dairy Ice Cream, including avocado, dark chocolate, coffee crumble, strawberry, ube and quezo, which definitely added a sweet and refreshing touch to the celebration.

Mitch, also one of the country’s leading PR practitioners, expressed her gratitude, saying, “Thank you to everyone who made Amos’ birthday so special and to those who sent messages and gifts too! We are so thankful for this superhero-loving little boy who fearlessly turned five years old! I hope you all can see how happy he is through these photos!”

The superhero-themed birthday bash, perhaps due in part to the hammers father and son wielded, was a smashing success, leaving everyone in happy and creating cherished memories for the young hero, Amos.
