Honor Court Gifts

The rehearsal dinner is a perfect time to formally thank all of these wonderful people for their help and support and to present them with a small token of your appreciation. This might include something for the damas to wear at the event or it might be something special like a framed photo of the quince with her court or a CD of the music from the quinceanera playlist.

The gifts allow you another great opportunity to play around with your theme. You can make something special (or have someone else make it) and present it to your court. A Paris theme gift that would be quite special for both damas and chambelanes might be a coffee mug that the quinceanera hand paints at a pottery shop, personalizing each with the honor court member's name, her name, and the quinceanera date. For an extra special touch, you might include some French perfume or cologne or maybe a CD of some really unusual French dance tunes. My bonus Songs List has quite a few French song titles that might give you an idea of artists to start with. The bonus of 285 song titles for quinceanera is free with Planning the Perfect Quinceanera.

Please see the next section for traditional gifts that are commonly offered to the quinceanera.
