Quinceanera Q and A

Question: I have never been invited to a la fiesta Quinceanera before. I have so many questions. What is a Quinceanera? What should I wear? What do I bring as a gift?

Answer:

A Quinceanera is a beautiful rite of passage for fifteen-year old Latina girls.
It is a family, church and community celebration that is steeped in tradition and symbolism. The event celebrates a young girl's entrance into womanhood.

Wear something like you would wear to a wedding reception.

Give a gift that is religious in nature. Bibles and rosaries make perfect gifts for a Quinceanera Celebration."
