QUINCEANERA MEANS "ONE WHO IS FIFTEEN." THE QUINCEANERA IS THE CELEBRATION OF A GIRL'S FIFTEEN BIRTHDAY, MARKING HER PASSAGE FROM CHILDHOOD TO WOMANHOOD. MANY CATHOLIC FAMILIES REQUEST A MASS AND A BLESSING FOR THEIR DAUGHTER.

THE QUINCEANERA BEGAN AS A TRADITION IN THE AMERICAS, PARTICULARLY IN MEXICO, CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICA.
