Considerations in Quinceanera Invitations
26 Aug 2008
Your Quinceanera is a very special event – possibly the biggest celebration in your life so far. Whether your Sweet 15 will be a formal/religious event, a fiesta, or a combination of the two, your invitations will be a sneak peek of that theme to your family and friends. Also, since the first page of your Quince album or scrapbook will most likely feature one of your Quinceanera invitations, you’ll want to make yours just right.
There are lots of options in selecting your Quinceanera invitations, and you probably have some ideas of what you’d like. While professionally designed and produced invitations an ensure an elegant look, making your own invitations lets you express your unique style. You may be able to save some money too.
Your options on the verse itself are wide open. The verse may be on behalf of just your parents, or it may include yourself. Will it will be Spanish or English, or both? Will it emphasize the religious aspect? What words will you use?
When you get in it, you realize that the options for your Quinceanera invitations seem endless. You’ll get to choose the style of the invitations, the number of pieces in the set, and the color of paper, envelopes, and vellum (what’s up with vellum?). You can select both the style and color of the text, or font. Some girls include their portrait on the invitations. Will you make your own or order professional sets? How many will you need? Who will you invite? You can even choose the color of the lining or the envelopes!
But don’t stress over all the choices. Take advantage of the opportunity to bond with your family and come up with something you’ll love. Your Quinceanera invitations not only announce your special day, but the right one can become a treasured keepsake.
