Quincenaera festivities often contain highly memorable moments that are historically filled with a lot of significance that every quinceanera wishes to experience.
It is critical to select the rites that the quinceanera feels most at ease with, as well as those that best define and symbolize her in her journey from girl to woman.
The five most traditional rites utilized in a Quinceaera celebration are as follows:
1. Tiara or Crown
The crown is an old emblem of royalty that designates the quinceanera as the family's princess.
It can be fashioned of flowers, cloth, or metal and adorned with crystals or semi-precious stones. It is traditionally placed on the quinceanera by the mother before departing for the celebration or at the party's entry as a statement of the norms that the quinceanera must follow from now on: dignity, honesty, simplicity, civility, sincerity, goodness, and kindness.
2. 15 Candles and 15 Roses
In this event, fifteen gentlemen with fifteen roses and fifteen bridesmaids with fifteen lighted candles await and greet the quinceanera, who, upon entering, blows out each candle as a symbol of each year lived and takes each rose provided.
The 15 roses will be offered to the mother as a gesture of gratitude for her parents' protection, attention, love, and care over her 15 years of existence.
3. Heels and Sneakers
This ritual of a Quinceanera party is the quintessential symbol of transition from girl to woman, in which the closest male figure, father, older brother, or some other male relative, replaces the Quinceanera's sneakers with high heels, at which time she will be ready for her first dance as a true young woman.
They are generally beautifully designed slippers that match the outfit and will serve as a live memento of such an eagerly anticipated ceremony for which they will have a special fondness.
4. The Ring and the Medal
They are generally handed to the quinceanera by the mother at the party, following the rite of the slippers, to reflect the parents' undivided devotion and love, and as a symbol of unfailing support for the young girl anytime she needs it.
5. The last doll and the flower bouquet
During the waltz dance, the father gives the honoree her final doll. It is often constructed of porcelain and dressed in the style of a quinceanera.
It is a tremendously emotional occasion that represents the transition from girl to woman.
After receiving the doll, she gives it to a younger sister or close friend who is due to turn fifteen, and in exchange she receives a bouquet of flowers, indicating a new route to walk, full of new interests and responsibilities.
