Night to Shine 2025

More than 170 Queens and Kings attended the annual Night to Shine special needs prom at Redemption Christian Church Friday evening.

This is the 10th year the church has hosted the event, which features limo rides to red carpet entrances, a photo booth, dinner, dancing and a crowning event on the church’s main stage.

All this is supported by hundreds of volunteers acting in many capacities to create a successful night. This includes providing hair, makeup and dress help before the big event, meeting and cheering for them as they enter the red carpet, waiting on them for dinner, and accompanying the royal guests throughout the evening as they are officially crowned, play games, sing karaoke, and of course, dance, dance, dance.

It is a beautiful night. Here are a few photos of Friday’s event. Photos by Matthew and Amy Crane.
