quillIf you’re making your own Quinceanera Invitations, or writing the words yourself, a poem can make the invitation original, possibly even becoming a keepsake for your guests.

If the format of the Quinceanera invitations provides enough space, try including a poem about what this event means to you.  If you’re creative, try writing your own poem.  And don’t be too critical of your ability.  If it comes from the heart, it will likely be nice.  The verses don’t even have to rhyme.  If you find yourself forcing the words, try looking for inspiration from other poetry.  I found an announcement  about a  Quinceanera accessory site that sponsors a poetry contest (http://sweet15idea.wordpress.com/).   Here’s part of a poem attributed to Christina Sandoval of San Antonio about her father:

…I prayed for strength

To be the woman of grace

Leave the little girl behind

To understand a daughter’s job

And kissed his forehead one last time…


So be creative, be original, and if that fails, “borrow” a poem and make your Quinceanera invitations special!
