My first quinceanera

We were invited to a quinceanera!
It finally came!

The actual party started at 9pm, 9pm!
About 10pm the girl came in with her parents

Then there was a father daughter dance
Followed by a dance of roses, where 12 boys/men danced with her each giving her a rose

Then dinner
They served a full dinner, soup, chicken, noodles, potatoes, bread, oddly no cake...

Followed by a couple more dances, where the girl shortened her dress
They even hired some boys to do some backstreet boys dancing and did two dances with the girl

There was a presentation of presents, only a couple presents because money was requested, they don't do cards, so just envelopes of money with no names on the envelope, just cash inside.
A slide show of the girls life so far,
Then another father-daughter dance where he presents her with a doll, her "last doll" because she's all grown up now.
And finish the evening with dancing...
There were jokers on stilts too...
It was essentially a masquerade themed birthday party that was almost like a wedding...
