As a parent of a young woman rapidly approaching her Quinceanera, costs are always a concern. Again, we understand. Our best advice is that everything
is more expensive on Saturday. If you can, try to have your daughter's Quinceanera on a Sunday. San Diego limos
are about 20% less expensive on a Sunday. And that it true for hall rentals, flowers, photographers, DJs
and caterers, too. The reason limo service is more expensive on Saturday is that everyone wants to have an event on a Saturday
day or Saturday evening. Fewer people want to have an event on a weekday or Sunday. Supply and demand affect the price of all services
including limo services
Choosing the day of your reinita's Quince might be out of your control just like the dress, the colors, the DJ. But what is in your
control is your daughter's safety. Choose A Plus San Diego Limo and you've chosen the most reliable limo service in San Diego.

limo service.
Here is a quick primer for those unfamiliar with the Mexican tradition of a girls 15th birthay known as a Quinceanera.
Mexican Tradition of the Quinceanera
In the Mexican tradition, a young girl's fifteenth birthday is the most significant birthday she will ever experience. For her fifteenth
birthday, or Quinceanera marks the day she transitions from childhood to womanhood, and she is now available for marriage.
Quinceaneras are usually formal affairs where the young woman wears floor length, lacey gown resembling a wedding dress. Non-Mexicans
are sometimes shocked when they see such a young girl looking as though she is on her way to her own wedding. In previous decades it was common
to see young Quinceaneras also wearing a veil.
Quinceaneras are usually big parties with all members of the extended family in attendance, as well as family friends and friends of the young
woman.
Among the guests are 29 special guests. Fourteen young women approximately the age of the Quinceanera act as attendants. Fourteen young men approximately
the age of the Quinceanera act as escorts of the attendants. One young man acts as the escort to the Quinceanera. The 14 young people represent
the 14 years of childhood. In earlier times, the parents of the Quinceanera would go from local village to local village seeking out
15 potential suitors for their daughter. Now, the Quinceanera is more of a big birthday party, but in old Mexico this was about finding
a good husband for your daughter.
The Quinceanera begins when the parents arrive with their daughter to the church for a special mass and communion. The father or nearest male relative
escorts the Quinceanera down the isle as the family and friends look on at her in the beautiful dress. The are met halfway to the alter
by the priest at which point the father gives his daughter's hand to the priest to signify she is no longer a child under the protection of her
parents but a woman under the protection of God and the church.

After the mass the young woman, family and guests proceed to a local hall for the party and dance. The young woman first dances with her
father. After the dance with her father, the mother removes the veil from the young woman's face to signify she is now permitted to dance
with young men. A waltz prepared and presented by the fifteen young couples ensues. After the waltz, the dance floor opens up to the
guests.
The father wakes up the next morning with a hangover and maxed out credit card.
