Sweet 15
For Latin families, turning 15 is a once in a lifetime event that celebrates the day a young girl officially enters womanhood; the special celebration is called a quinceañera.
There are birthday parties … and then there are quinceañeras!
This is the traditional Hispanic way of celebrating a young girl’s coming of age and is a day of pride for all Latina families.
Cousins Alexis and Jarling, along with Alexis’ wife Daniela, are Miami’s premiere quinceañera party experts and dress shop owners.
While longstanding cultural traditions like finding the perfect dress and the father-daughter dance remain customary, new American traditions are becoming a staple, including overthe-top photo shoots, numerous mid-party outfit changes and music videos that rival those of the biggest teen pop sensations.
At the heart of it all is a family who has been in the quinceañera business for over 45 years, working with each client to create a unique and special event.
Don’t miss out on these unforgettable birthday celebrations from Tuesday, November 13 at 8pm on (DStv channel 155).
