Hey,
Well if you want a fifteen thats cute but also cheap for u, ask really close people to be your padrinos. I am doing that with things like my invitations, the wine, and things like that. You can also have padrinos for like the big things like music and limo but you would need someone real close who would give u that money. I hope my advice helped

Hello
I coordinated/planned a quinceanera party that had a tight budget.
Usually the best thing is to have 15 padrinos, and combine two or three for the big things such as the catering and the hall. So that your party does not become a burden to them.
In every major city there are stores that sell artificial flowers at wholesale prices, and stuff to make the favors, in this particular case, we lucked out, since the quince was in L.A. CA and we found a store that sold everything for pennies, and with a little patience an planning all the damas handcrafted the favors, the decorations and the floral arrangements.
The guys can help with the cleaning at the end, so that you don`t have to pay for clean up charges.
Stong bonus point: If you have padrinos and they have teenage kids, make sure that you include them in your party, I did a Quince once, where the padrinos were offended because on the video, the quinceanera revealed her reason for not including their kids, making comments regarding their appearence.
Needless is to say, the celebration lost it`s magic.

Good luck!
