About quinceañeras coverage

Many quinceañeras begin with a Mass or blessing and continue with a reception full of symbolic moments. The dress, the dances and the people around her all matter, so we plan around each.

Rehearsed dances and a packed schedule mean timing is important, so we ask for your program early and work with your planner and DJ.

Moments we cover at quinceañeras

  • Mass or blessing

    The religious ceremony where family and godparents gather around her, often with a symbolic gift such as a Bible or rosary.

  • Court of honor entrance

    Damas and chambelanes enter in pairs, often with matching outfits and choreography.

  • Changing of the shoes

    Her father or a loved one replaces flats with heels, a symbol of stepping into womanhood.

  • The last doll

    She receives or gives away a final doll, marking the end of childhood.

  • Vals and surprise dance

    The waltz with her father and the court, followed by the lively surprise dance that guests love.

Planning tips

  • Share the program and music

    A written schedule with dance songs helps us position ourselves for the best angles.

  • Plan a portrait window

    Set aside time before the party for her dress portraits, with the court and family, while everyone looks their best.

  • Tell us about rehearsals

    If dances are choreographed, let us know the order and where the best view will be.
