Quinceanera Decorations

Decorating For Your Quinceanera Reception and Parties

There are countless ways to decorate to create an elegant Quinceanera reception whether you are on a shoe-string or a sky's-the-limit budget. Whether your party is being held in a large reception hall, a church community room or at your own home, you can always tie your Quinceanera theme into your décor.

Entrance:

Quinceanera Decorations Start by greeting Quinceanera guests with a dazzling arch or gateway to enter the reception room. A balloon arch, a pair of dreamy cloud columns, a castle gate or a personalized memory banner are all excellent choices.

Reception Hall:

Add a fairytale focal point decoration that is sized appropriately for your reception location and you'll have the perfect spot for the presentation with your damita. A larger-than-life castle or castle entrance in shimmering shades of icy blue, silver and white would be lovely. A stunning carriage fit for a fairytale princess would be another wonderful choice. Swans, a castle bridge, a fountain or a grouping of faux trees filled with sparkling white twinkle lights would all be excellent choices as accents for decorating. Quinceanera Balloons, streamers and gossamer are always excellent choices for economical decorating. You can transform any room into a festive Quinceanera space in a matter of minutes by using some of the following ideas with balloons. Place groupings of helium-filled balloons tied with curling ribbon around the party room. (Odd numbers look best: 3, 5 or 7.) To fill a larger "ballroom" setting create a balloon arch, swags or column using white, silver and light blue balloons, or balloon clouds using white balloons. Make sure that you recruit plenty of help from family and friends early in the day if you are planning to create large scale arches or swags. If you choose not to use helium, tie balloons to varying lengths of curling ribbon and hang them from the ceiling. Using gossamer or streamers is a budget-conscious way to splash lots of color and warmth around the site of your party. Create a lovely, elegant effect by draping white and silver metallic gossamer or streamers from the center of the ceiling to the walls on each side of the room. Two different colored streamers or lengths of gossamer can be placed back to back and twisted for a unique look.

Photo Setting:

A Quinceanera is the ideal time to capture some priceless memories as you'll be surrounded by all the people you love most. You can actually plan this as a party activity. Set up an area with a Cinderella-themed decoration specifically for picture taking. Whether you are hiring a professional photographer or recruiting a family member, take pictures of each guest at the party and of different groups of guests standing by the photo backdrop. The Quinceanera photos can be mailed or emailed to friends and family after the party with a note saying "gracias". Another nice touch for the Quinceanera reception would be to use the Quinceanera photo setting for video recording. A set of numbers showing the year of your Quince would be ideal. Ask guests to stop by at some point during the Quinceanera party and record a spontaneous message. Have each guest start by saying "I'm proud of you because;" or "My favorite memory of you growing up is..." Throughout the course of the Quinceanera party you will create a touching tribute, filled with warm memories, funny stories, and the smiling faces of those who came to say, "Feliz Cumpleaños!"

Quinceanera Decorating for a Mexican Fiesta To set an authentically Mexican mood, you’ll want to pick out invitations and Quinceanera decorations from south of the border. Pick up as many plastic tablecloths as you think you’ll need. Choose bright colors, like purple, turquoise, hot pink and yellow. Get some paper napkins and small appetizer or dessert-sized paper plates to match. If you want to use plastic cups, stock up on them too. Look around. Many party stores stock Mexican wall decorations, colorful paper flowers, piñatas and Quinceanera centerpieces. Get about a dozen or two small votive candles and as many lunch sized brown paper sacks. On the day of the fiesta, you will fill each with some sand or soil, insert a candle and place two rows of “luminaries” along the walkway to your front door.
