1987
Josias and Melissa throw a kick-ass party in the penthouse.

But for others, including children, the music encouraged them to celebrate.
It was William and Stacy's engagement party.
Josias asked Tiago to have the party this time at his home. Guests were spread between the living room and the balcony.
