18th

From my random thoughts of being a woman

Classical music all around the venue

People with smiles and greetings as I continue

I saw many flowers in the view

I think this is the start of something new

Surrounded with my beloved family

Friends, and relatives I also see

With gracious eyes looking at me

I suddenly feel consciously pretty

There I saw my dear father

Walking towards me, holding a flower

With his handsome looks forever

Smiling at me, showing the eager

Then I realized, I am now a lady

Stepping for the next stage of my journey

Not as the kid that I used to be

But the grown up woman, and the new me

At 18...more freedom, greater responsibility... Your rhyme scheme is well done and meticulously laid out :)
