The four debutants made their formal entrance, partnered gracefully by their escorts.
The couples participating were Cadence Busby and Samuel Fattore, Lexi Sarkis and Samuel Dal Broi, Isla Burns and Jack Tapper and Britney Goodsall and Jett DeMamiel.
The flower girl was Harper Reitano, and page boy was Oliver Hughes.
Event organiser Marg Gilbert said the event not only showcased elegance but also raised more than $6000 for Country Hope - a Wagga-based charity which provides family centred support programs to country children diagnosed with cancer or other life threatening illnesses.
Mrs Gilbert thanked the many people who had helped with organising the event and making it such a success.
“With the last ball held more than 30 years ago, this evening marked a return to tradition, celebrated with music by Duble/Party Boys Rockin,” she said.
“Band member Pat Sergi reflected he had last played in the hall in the 1970s.”
Unveiled on the night were the hall's new curtains made by Roslyn Heath, showcasing the community's commitment to preserving its heritage.
