Before your Quinceañera becomes a disaster, you want to plan out the type of music that you want played before hand. If you are hiring a live band or DJ, you will want to pick out songs for Quinceanera. This will put you in control of the evening.

One of my friends wasn’t so lucky. Her Quinceanera started out wonderful until everyone hit the dance floor.

My friend’s parents had no idea how teens dance these days. You know that teens can get pretty dirty on the dance floor. Well, sadly, the songs weren’t planned out in advance which left people going up to the DJ requesting hip-hop music left and right.

The music wasn’t too bad until some of the girls asked the boys there to dance. They started “freak” dancing. In no time at all, all the other kids were dancing like that. It was a nightmare.

As the night continued the dancing got worse and more sensual. Most of my friend’s friends were wearing formal clothes and dancing like animals. They didn’t care that they were at my friend’s Quinceanera, nor did they care that there were small children around and adults. She told me that a lot of her guests were astonished and disappointed.

So you don’t end up like my friend, there are a few things that you should do to make sure the songs for Quinceanera are appropriate:

1. Choose a DJ or live band that you trust and can communicate with before your event. Let them know what kind of music you want at your party. Give him your quinceanera songs in an iPod.

2. Give them a list of songs that you feel are appropriate for the occasion.

3. Also give them a list of songs that you DO NOT want played at all.

4. Make sure that you let the DJ know that no songs can be requested without your permission.

These few ideas will help you have better control over the songs for Quinceanera played. Make sure that you plan ahead and keep good communication with the people playing music for you. You want this event to be memorable in a good way.

Just like any birthday party, you are going to have some kind of cake to cut at a Quinceanera. However, a Quinceañera isn’t like any other birthday, it is a special day for the young woman who is turning fifteen and now considered a woman. Quinceanera cakes then should be something more than just a regular birthday cake, and it usually is.

After the Misa de accion de gracias (Thanksgiving Mass) where the Quinceanera ceremony takes place, all family and friends in attendance go to the place where the party will be held. This is where those in attendance will enjoy themselves with dancing, visiting, eating, and celebrating the young woman’s rite of passage.

Quinceanera cakes are part of the highlight of the evening. Usually the cakes are enormous multi-layered, sometimes even large enough that doors leading to the party location need to be removed to allow passage of the cake into the hall.

Traditional cakes will be decorated with dripping meringue frosting dyed in hues to match the Quinceanera’s dress and theme colors. Basically, these cakes are almost like wedding cakes in the Western world.

Many people choose to hire the baking out, due to the large proportions of the cake. This job is not cheap, however, so make sure to get price quotes from various cake makers. You may even want to look at different pictures of some of the cakes that baker has made in the past to get some good ideas.

Most cakes that I have seen are held on tiers that accentuate the size of the cake even more. A lot of times the cakes are even decorated with fresh flowers to match the bouquet of the young woman.

When the time of the cutting of the cake arrives, there is usually a toast right before and then music to accompany the cutting. All are invited to eat the cake. The top layer isn’t saved for the young woman like on a wedding day.

Quinceanera cakes are definitely one aspect of the party that is a necessity. You will want to take some time to plan out the details of what kind of cake you want and who is going to make it.
