Locations:
Wheeling, West Virginia |

|
My Theme:
Traditional with a twist |

|
My Favorite Theme/Decoration/Favor Ideas:
I'm having large dark blue castles with lots of lights, because they're pretty, and remind me of New York, where I was born. We are having lots of balloons to match the castles, purple, dark and light blue mixed. I'll enter a large balloon archway, made by a local balloon artist. I'm giving out chocolate favors that have my name and my birthdate on them. |

About My Quince:
It's going to be very formal, and traditional too. But we are making some changes, because I'm in a community that has almost no Hispanic population. We're planning to introduce the community to the tradition of the Quinceanera. We are still playing mostly Spanish music, and doing the traditions like la ultima muneca and the changing of the shoes, etc. It's in an elegant ballroom in a historic local hotel. |
