Fifteen birthday!!!

The celebration marks the transition from girl to woman's quinceañera. It serves as a way to recognize the girl in question has reached maturity. The celebration however varies greatly across countries. However, the Quinceañera not mean that the girl in question is now an adult because this can vary according to the laws of each country.

In Mexico, for this occasion, the quinceañera is made up and headed for the event, leaving the conventional makeup and hair, and wearing a dress with the colors you chose the quinceañera.

In the Mexican tradition, if the teenager is Catholic, the festival begins with a Mass of Thanksgiving, which also is venerated the Virgin, for the reason that at that age it was announced that he would have Jesus. The teenager attends Mass with (usually striking and creative, hinting at some sort of princess) formal dress color she chose previously (usually pastel shades or intense), where a medal is awarded for a sponsor or his godmother, being previously blessed, accompanied by her parents, godparents (sometimes the christening) and chamberlains. After Mass the families and friends of the quinceañera will deliver holiday gifts, and quinceañera leaves her bouquet on an altar to the Virgin Mary. A Mass is followed by a party at the quinceañera or banquet dining, casino, touched or ballroom, reserved for the occasion. In the quinceañera party usually danced some waltzes with his chamberlains.

Other rituals, such as the latest toy, based on the Mayan tradition that this possession would be the last object for use by children would use are also performed, since by then her marriage would be next; and also of the shoe, where the father of the teenager changes his shoe floor by one high heels, which also symbolizes the passage to adulthood.

After dinner (or before every dance) starts and the party reaches the time the contract sets musical groups or start your routine, giving life and spirit to the party.
