I also have a Quinceneras problem. My mother has never planned a Quinceneras party or even been to one. She thinks that only Cubans celebrate their Quinceneras and only Americans celebrate their Sweet Sixteens. She says that where we come from we celebrate our eighteens, which is completely obsurd. I`m from Chile some part in South America and a lot of my friends are going to have either their fifteens or sixteens, and its not even about that, I`ve been researching about this and I`m really interested I even start to cry because it`s such a beautiful ceremony I will never get to expirience. I`ve tried telling her that I really want my Quinceneras but she tells me that the only reason I want it is because my best friend is having her. I really need help from both perpectives mothers and daughters. How can I convinse her into having my quinceneras? Thanks Email me at Latina4337@aol.com

Maybe your mom is thinking only about the COST! i have to admit that it could get pretty expensive but try explaining it to her the way you wrote about it. Point out the real reasons you want it! hopefully she`ll listen!

First make arrangements with the church and banquet room. 2nd look for a dress and decide if you are to have escorts. You don`t have to invite the parents of your friends in your celebration unless they are good friends with your parents. You should first invite your immediate family. Once you have jotted down the family list then you can work on your friend list. Remember invite people that have been a part of your life don`t invite people because you have to.

I think you should invite the parents of your friends that are in your court. Another thing, make sure that at the practices your having, the people in your court don`t knock off that much. Also make sure that everyone attends at least a couple of practices. I stood in a Quinceanera and the march was terrible! Some people didn`t even know what to do. I hope every thing goes as planned for you. I hope I was of some help.

Why would it be only fair to invite family members?!? If you have friends in your court of course you should invite they`re parents. Say some ppl don`t have a ride...who takes them?? They`re parents. Say some ppl don`t have the money for the suits or dresses....who pays it?? They`re parents. You`re friends parents have alot of input in it and it`s only fair to invite them to your party. I did at least.

Mija, yes you should invite the parents. Just give one invite to each family. That is just being polite. Let`s just hope they don`t all show up. Hee Hee Good luck

Hey girl I am planning my 15er too! Mine is on May 15th and of course you have to invite the parents because they are the ones letting your damas and chambelans be in it. YOu invite anyone who is important.
