]]>The post Navy Blue & Indigo Quinceanera Dresses first appeared on Q By DaVinci Blog.
]]>Deep, rich blue dresses are a beautiful alternative to black & convey the same qualities of importance, authority & power. Blue communicates intelligence & stability & can also convey a conservative look.
The difference between navy blue & indigo lies in the color added to blue to create each hue.
One important advantage of these dark blue Quinceanera dresses is that they don’t show snags in delicate fabrics like tulle. Spills & stains are also less noticeable, so you can enjoy your reception to the fullest without worrying about you or your guests accidentally spilling a drink on your dress & ruining the look for photos & video.

]]>Here’s our last shot at the best original and unusual Quinceanera themes we could find. For sure you’ll find an idea that’s interesting, charming, and makes your Quinceanera day all about you!
To get details on specifics like invitations and outfits and decorations, just type in a search using our keyword and include a search for “party” in that theme. For instance, search both for “retro theme Quinceanera” and “retro theme party.” It couldn’t be easier!
Be a hippie for a day! Make a peace symbol and rainbow photo booth, and even have a tie dye cake. Carry a bouquet of tie dye roses, then take a simple white Quinceanera dress and add a pop of rainbow color by adding flowers or a rainbow underskirt!
Here’s a tutorial on DIY tie dye socks that will work for t-shirts, table runners, and just about any long fabric you want to use for your Quince: http://ilovetocreateblog.blogspot.com/2013/02/how-to-make-tie-dye-rainbow-socks.html
If you love the rainbow colors of a Retro theme, but want to stay more traditional, make balloons your Quinceanera theme. Balloons are fabulous because they’re easy to work with, everybody loves them, and the price couldn’t be more perfect! Add ribbon and paperweights for balloon centerpieces, position a balloon arch at your venue entrance or over your head table, and for one of the most creative photo backdrops ever, make a balloon wall for photo ops.
Here’s a great DIY blog on how to make a wall using different styles of balloons: http://lessonslearntjournal.com/balloon-wall/
Add a touch of the classy Renaissance era to your Quince with long banquet seating and plenty of pearls.
Show off your athletic side and bring your sport into your Quince. Decorate according to the game you love, serve treats like at a sports park, and be sure to take portraits of you in your Quinceanera dress standing on the playing field. You could even dress your court in sports outfits for your surprise dance!
Do you love everything Southern? Set your tables for a tea party with pastel colors, parasols, and a dinner including fried chicken and sweet tea!
If you love the fantasy literature of Jules Verne, H.G. Wells, and Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, a Steampunk Quinceanera could be right up your alley. Combine the feminine glamor of Victorian clothing with just a touch of gothic, and the sharp edges of machinery pieces in your centerpieces. For inspiration, watch the movie The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen—which actually features a woman!
Use your super powers to steal the show with a Super Hero Quinceanera! Take a cue from a DC Comics wedding trend and have a “Two-Faced” cake, then hire a facepaint artist for your photo booth.
Ask your choreographer to create a “group fight scene” for your surprise dance. Check this out for ideas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwMLs3sek6Q
For a Twilight party Alice Cullen would be proud of, conjure up a dream evening with an immortal Quinceanera theme. And if you can recruit a truly romantic guy for your head chambelane, you can reenact the key Twilight movie stills for your photo shoot!
Check out this link for fabulous Twilight party ideas: http://www.kandykreations.net/2010_06_11_archive.html
Follow the Yellow Brick Road! Dress for your ceremony in a deep blue Dorothy-inspired dress, carry a Yellow Brick Road bouquet, then add a super-tall tiara. Create a Munchkinland sweets table, build a photo booth with a green curtain like the Wizard himself, and add a touch of evil magic with Wicked Witch broom props.
Here’s a tutorial for authentic looking DIY ruby slippers: http://www.instructables.com/id/how-to-make-ruby-slippers-from-wizard-of-oz/
For sure you’ve seen a lot of Quinceanera zebra prints in hot pink and black, but black and lime green is dazzling, and you can’t get any classier than classic black and white zebra print! This theme is easy to work with because you can use a lot of solids. Just scout your party supply stores for solid lime green supplies then put them together with black and white stripes.

]]>Again, just use our keywords to do a search to find details on specifics—invitations and outfits, decorations, etc. Also, don’t just search for “galaxy theme Quinceanera.” Include a search for “galaxy party,” too. It couldn’t be easier!
Check out these top picks for the most charming, interesting, and original Quinceanera themes to make your day truly about you.
If you’re a stargazer, or just have dreams that reach the stars, why not opt for a Quinceanera that’s literally out of this world? Think black and deep blue, twinkling stars on your dress and in your hair, fiber optics, and glittery decor all around.
Feed your Hunger Games fever and be Katniss Everdeen for a night. And how more perfect could any surprise dance be if it was choreographed to this amazing remix of “The Hanging Tree” from Mockingjay Part 1?! It’s even exactly the right length—just under 2 ½ minutes!
Note: It starts slow but picks up right away!
This is absolutely not your usual Quince theme, but especially if you love the idea of a European theme, but don’t want Paris because you feel it’s been done too many times, then a London theme would be perfect for you. Decorate with Big Ben cutouts, tiny red phone booths, Union Jack flag photo booth, and wear a dress with a royal train.
For a theme that expresses your nerdy but elegant side, take your Quinceanera inspiration from your love of books.
Any color scheme will work. Simply name your tables after your favorite titles, play trivia games with Shakespeare and other famous quotes, and decorate with reading glasses, loose pages from discarded library books, and centerpieces of books topped with a single candle or a nosegay of flowers.
And of course, have a knockout coffee bar with lattes and maybe even rent a cappuccino machine!
Transform your Corte de honor into a team of cholos and cholas.
Keep it classy with hats for the guys even with their formal ceremony wear and then change into coordinated outfits for your baile sopresa.
Arrive in style riding in a lowrider, and have your reception outdoors so your guests can show off their cars, too.
Yes, we mean Miami Nice, not vice! Flamingoes, palm trees and a corte de honor dressed all in white will transform your Quince into an evening in South Beach. Choose tropical colors in any combination you like.
If you can’t celebrate your Quinceanera in Mexico, bring Mexico to you!
Go all out traditional with an all-male Corte de honor in sombreros, a mariachi band, and traditional Mexican food. Perhaps you’ll even be lucky enough to have someone in your family who can embroider your dress!
If you love reading a good murder mystery and have a little touch of the dramatic actress in you, consider a murder mystery Quince. You can wear a traditional white dress for your ceremony and outfit your court in a beautiful evening look for the ceremony and opening proceedings—tuxedos or white shirts, black ties and vests for the guys and a lovely outfit for the girls, maybe in a luxurious green satin—then change into 1920s attire for your surprise dance and the rest of the party.
Do you play the piano or in your school’s orchestra, or sing, or just have a love of the classics? Then throw a classical music Quinceanera with a sheet music bouquet and boutonnieres, then decorate in white, black and red (or another rich jewel tone), and hire a live string quartet as part of the entertainment. And of course, they must play for your waltz!
This is a great Quinceanera idea. It’s more a “direction” than a set theme because you don’t have to stick to just one style. You can have feather or lace parasols for your damas to carry for the procession and photos, use Japanese parasols in your surprise dance, and then choose paper parasols in your theme colors for centerpieces and other decorations.
A Pirate Quinceanera certainly isn’t traditional—but maybe you aren’t traditional! Use a simple black and red stripe color scheme against white with pirate flags, candles, treasure chests and fishing nets. Wear long gloves with your red and black dress.

]]>The post Your Quinceanera Budget: A Bottom-Line Guide first appeared on Q By DaVinci Blog.
]]>Just like weddings, elaborate Quinceaneras require a 12-month planning period. This is essential because planning makes room for financial adjustments.
Fortunately, your 15th birthday is a family centered celebration, so you have your parents and godparents to help you with the total cost. Still, if you want organizing your Quince to be smooth sailing, you need a budget-conscious plan.
And because you can plan your dream Quinceanera on a budget, we’ve put together a handy guide to help you know what things are required for a successful yet cost-effective celebration, and how much you can expect to pay.
The location of your party sets the scene, everything from the theme to the decorations and more. If you plan to spend your Quince in another country, or even very far out of town, expenses may be doubled because your friends and family will need to travel. Either way, try to keep your venue in close proximity to where everyone lives or will be staying.
Once you have a general location, look at the type of venue. Hotels can charge from $500 all the way up to a few thousand dollars to rent a ballroom for an event. Usually, that includes tables and chairs and sometimes table linens—and if so, then either plain white or very limited colors—but that does not include food. If you have a large crowd, why not start your budget off easy by choosing a barn, garden, or beach? Also, always ask for promotions or discounts during low season.
Tip #1: Make sure the venue has a space large enough for the traditional dances.
Tip #2: If your backyard—or the yard or home of one of your friends or relatives—will accommodate your crowd, give that serious consideration!
Very few venues come with decorations other than perhaps standard table linens. Even cheap centerpieces will run you at least $5-10 each, and if you want any kind of ambiance and color, then you’re talking serious flowers plus lights, maybe balloons, pretty colored linens, all of which cost extra.
Tip: Plenty of themes make a statement but don’t cost a fortune. Check out
Floral design is an essential Quinceanera element because flowers represent femininity. A significant cost-cutting consideration is to use hydrangeas. They have much larger blooms than roses, so you only need a few for centerpieces. The other best cost-cutter you can implement is to stay in season with each and every bloom.
When it comes to vases, you don’t need a planner to make them beautiful. You and your damas can make gorgeous DIY flower holders, even just ordinary glass bottles decorated with glitter. Put them on the tables for centerpieces, use them to hold party favors on a candy table, or use small ones to hold tea lights. In addition to saving a few dollars, you’ll get to bond with the ladies in your court!
Tip: Don’t choose flowers that have to be shipped in, either because they’re out of season or because they’re not readily available in town.
Q by DaVInci Zeia Couture Style #3126
A Quinceanera gown will probably cost at least $200 depending on your theme and venue. And yes, you absolutely must look stunning on your birthday. However, spending more money does not necessarily guarantee you’ll look more beautiful. There are lots of options—if you’re willing to make an effort—for cost-effective dresses that look equally gorgeous as designer gowns. Especially keep an eye out for seasonal sales at your favorite retailer.
If you absolutely must have a tailored ball gown, at least be sure to choose fabric suitable for the weather during your Quinceanera month. You don’t want a heavy satin gown in the middle of July! Even if your Quince falls in the cooler months, there are lovely—and much less expensive—fabrics that are still stunning.
One last tip is not to worry about a dress that looks right silhouette-wise and is in a fabulous price range, but that you think is too plain. You can always have your retailer add embroidery or beadwork, and you yourself can DIY ultra-glamorous accessories.
Book your stylist at least 6 months before the big event. The good ones are always taken first so move quickly on this one. You can opt to have the stylist come to your house, or your can have hair and makeup done at the salon.
Since makeup and hair styling services by professionals are very expensive these days, DIY works well as long as you’re skilled at it. If you have a best friend or cousin who is just amazing, why not ask her to help?
Tip: Book one professional makeup session, perhaps at a beauty school, and ask for an instructor to guide the student as to what looks most lovely on you as a “basic natural look.” Take notes on products used and placement of blush and shadow, plus any contouring. Then go surfing for DIY tutorials that build on that look and add party-worthy hues to the mix like brighter blush and lipstick and definitely fancier eye makeup.
The number of guests is a crucial determining factor for your budget. On the low end, if you have a no-cost or low-cost venue and potluck your own food, it’ll be a lot cheaper. If you have a catered meal, even at a cost-effective venue, it won’t come cheap. The general price range these days is $75-$100 per person for a catered dinner, depending on what you include for drinks.
Since the guest of honor at a Quinceanera is underage, as well as almost all of her friends, the per-head cost will be lower because you probably won’t have much of a bar tab if any. But even at a super-discounted rate of only $50 per person, 200 people will cost you $10,000. (Can you say “ouch”?)
So how do you fix this? Guest list!
Since a Quinceanera is primarily a family affair, relatives, and very close friends are usually on the list. But before inviting anyone else, remember: It’s not just the dollar-amount-per-person for food and drinks that counts. You have to factor in invitations, party favors, and even thank you cards.
If you’ve got a nice big budget, run with it. If not, give some thought to how much you want to spend, and who you really want to spend that money on.
Just like with weddings, ordering the cake should be done months before especially if you want fondant or handmade sugar flowers. Tier cakes also require time for the pastry team. Quinces nowadays don’t necessarily follow the traditional white and pink cakes. These days you’ll see 3D effects, LED lights, and elaborate construction.
You can also have a very nice cake done by someone in your family or a friend. What you choose will all depend on your budget.
Tip: You could ask one of your Padrinos to take charge and specifically sponsor your cake!
In addition to the main meal, you’ll probably need some extras. Even plated hotel dinners don’t include hors d’oeuvres, so count those in as well. You might also want a sweets table or some special drinks. Know that all these extras are also charged per head, so that guest list is, once again, a deciding factor.
One option—if you plan to have someone cook the main meal—is to order some appetizers from a restaurant or other source. That will let your guests snack during the opening portion of your reception program. It’ll also take some pressure off your friends and relatives in the kitchen as they prepare the main course.
DJ’s and MCs may cost you up to $1,000. Bands run even higher. But there are a number of happy alternatives.
This option will definitely make your parents’ wallets happy because buying you a few hours of downloads is a lot cheaper than even one hour of any type of professional entertainment!
Because this doll signifies the end of childhood, many want the doll’s attire to match the Quinceanera dress, and sometimes they want it to look like the celebrant. Some of the fancier store-bought dolls can cost up to $160, so you might have to decide which to spend more on: Your dress or your doll?
Tip: Consider buying a simple doll then having your mom or a family friend make its dress. Sometimes the celebrant has her real last doll—the last one she played with—that’s in good enough condition to be decked out in a beautiful dress.
In addition to the invitations, you’ll want a memento of the fun times your guests spent at your 15th birthday. But because every store-bought memento imaginable is expensive, DIY is the only sensible way to go here. Don’t worry if you yourself aren’t particularly craft-inclined, though. We can pretty much guarantee that the gals in your court will have a blast brainstorming and then helping you. Or again, you can ask one of your sponsors to be specifically in charge of the favors. You might even have a cousin or aunt who adores making things. If so, rejoice!
We have only one last thing to say: The farther you think outside of the traditional Quinceanera box, the more you’ll save.
Yes, it’s that simple!

]]>The post Top 10 Useful & Creative Quinceanera Favors first appeared on Q By DaVinci Blog.
]]>Party favors today are unique, whimsical, always useful, and usually have a theme. Quinceaneras have themes, too, so it’s easy to choose favors to complement.
In addition to the ideas below, here are a couple more tips:
So, just what are today’s top unique, whimsical, and always useful Quinceanera favors? Read on!
Lip balm makes great a party giveaway because it lasts. Plus, both girls and guys will use it.
Your ladies will definitely love mirror compacts, but even the guys will use a mirror if you keep it super simple.
To personalize the ladies’ mirrors:
For the guys:
Candles are the easiest favors to give for any party, but if you want a candle favor with a kick:
If you want to give your guests a sweet surprise, delicious cake pops as take-homes are great.
You can order cake pops with colorful toppings to go with your theme. To make it convenient:
In addition to a grand and glorious cake, a candy theme Quinceanera simply must have a candy buffet! These are all great:
Fun tip: You can use candy bars for your court invitations to the Quince itself. Just print out a custom wrapper with all the party details! You won’t need more than a couple dozen, even if you’re having a full traditional 15 in your Corte de honor.
We have only one absolute don’t when it comes to personalized water bottles:
Do not make a label with a photo of your face.
Instead:
Mason jars are hot these days, both for storage and as drinking glasses. They’re unisex, too, so guys will actually use them!
For mason jar party favors:
Quinceaneras are the one type of party that will always have dancing and a lot of goofing around, so flip flops as your Quince giveaway is the perfect idea.
You don’t even have to personalize them. Just order a selection in different unisex sizes and in colors to match your theme.
Parties on the beach are perfect for flip flops, but even for an indoor Quince, flip flops are great because your guests can change out of their high heels and leather dress shoes.
Flip flops are definitely a non-standard giveaway, but what a great surprise for your guests on your sweet 15!
Quinces held outdoors during the day or early afternoon mean more time in the sun. So to give your guests less squinting time, give them shades.
In addition to protecting everybody’s eyes during a hot sunny day, shades can look great with your court outfits, and the guys will definitely love sunglasses!
Both styles will be used long after the party.
Fun tip: If you want to make the shades special for your damas, wrap the bows of the sunglasses in thread or ribbon. You can even wrap bracelets to match!
If your venue is a beach or rustic garden, offer your guests personalized fans to keep cool.
