Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo went to the prom for the first time ever thanks to his daughter Bailey Ann.

On her dad’s 44th birthday, the 17-year-old decided to surprise him and his wife with a prom night-themed birthday party after finding out they missed their own.

On Wednesday, November 3, Bunnie, whose real name is Alyssa DeFord, posted a video on Instagram, offering highlights from the special night and a "powerful" lesson she learned this week.

"Bailee has always hated school dances. But because J and I never went to ours, we've always pushed her: 'Go make memories. Go have the experiences we missed,'" the text read over the moment Bailey, donning a dress, welcomed her parents.

"This year has been heavy-schedules, mental health, burnout... all of it. We've kept to ourselves, and we hate surprises. So when Bailee texted saying she had one for us, I spiraled. Especially after we swore there'd be no surprises for J's birthday," the Dumb Blonde podcaster penned over the montage of short clips. "But we showed up for our girl anyway…even with tired hearts."

"What we walked into stopped us in our tracks-a full room of friends and family... a night she called 'Under the Stars,'"Jelly Roll’s wife wrote over the moment the couple was shocked to see their closed ones at one place. "A prom/ birthday party she created for us. She crowned us King and Queen, and we danced and sang like teenagers who finally got their moment."

"All because our baby wanted to make us smile," she added. "She did it all herself & didn't miss one detail. Even did sugar free mocktails for me & a crown for Chachi."

As for the lesson the 45-year-old shared, "Time is the most precious thing we own. Spend it on your people. The memories you make with them will outlive everything else."

Bunnie and her country-star husband were all dolled up to attend a dance.

For the unversed, Jelly has two children from previous relationships, Bailee and her younger brother Noah.

When Bailee was a kid, her father and stepmother were granted full custody over her.
