If you're in the dilemma of choosing the date of your Quince party, consider these simple tips to help you make this important decision.
It would be ideal to dance your quince waltz on the day you came into the world, but sometimes this is not possible for various reasons.
The day that you like: If your birthday definitely falls on a Monday, do not plan to make your party on a busy day. You can afford to choose any other occasion, even in another season, if for example you were born in winter and would like to have your party in the spring or summer, or vice versa.
The most auspicious day: There are some traditions and beliefs that assign best wishes to certain days, so some people like to celebrate Catholic roots on Thursday, some religions do not allow if Sabbath celebrations, or you might seem strange to your party on Friday the 13th if you're superstitious.
The solstices, such as the spring equinox (March 21) is a popular day since antiquity. It has been given special qualities as the balance between day and night.. But the summer solstice (June 21) is a quince party favorites. Some girls like to match your party with other dates such as Carnival, or to carry Halloween costumes for a Halloween themed quince. Likewise, the saint's day of your birthday or the employer family are popular dates.
The day you get cheap: A weekend is ideal, because people could then fully enjoy your quince without worrying about time or work commitments. But note that in some banquets rooms, they offer discounts for parties on the less busy days. If you feel comfortable with this idea, or if you fall behind in your decision and can not find a place available for your quinceañera party, this is a valid option.
The day may come when more guests: Many times our guests come from far and find it difficult to attend a dance, unless they can count on the closeness of a long weekend or a few days more to get there and back. Keep in mind if you want your friends and family members to move or travel long distances to come to your Quince party, or will have to watch you wear high heels on webcam.
