Party Bus was by Diego Party Bus, here is a link to their website: https://www.sandiegopartylimo.com/
The party bus took her to the Mass location, the ceremony was held at Saint Michael Catholic Church.

The church has a really well taken care of garden and they even have a fountain, this is a perfect spot for pictures.
Another pretty cool detail about this Quinceanera are her tennis shoes because they perfectly fit the theme and she was able to stay comfortable the whole day.

Quinceanera Photo Shoot
It is very usual to do a photo shoot before the Quinceanera Party. For this photo shoot we went to Presidio Park.
This is a beautiful spot for pictures because the construction is like a traditional adobe construction very similar to the ones you can see at Old Town San Diego.

MARDI GRAS QUINCEANERA PARTY
Like I mentioned before this Quince party was held at the Royal Palace Banquet Hall at El Cajon. It’s a really large Venue where you accommodate a really large party.
Every single detail was carefully crafted.
The entrance was decorated with a big green wall decorated with purple, green and golden balloons. It was a perfect photo backdrop as you can see here.

At the entrance we had the Quinceanera’s picture and this is pretty cool because the guests can sign her picture and it’s a keepsake for her.

The whole room was decorated with colorful and festive masks in purple, golden and green.

And OMG the dessert table! It was so beautifully decorated with a huge festive backdrop and masks and lots of delicious sweet treats.

And the desserts did not stop there, she had a wait for it … Ice cream bar!!!I had never seen one at a Quinceanera and it looked fantastic!They had different flavors and plenty of yummy toppings.

Now onto the cake table, look at that setup! Perfect for the theme and I think it was such a great idea to have cupcakes that guests can easily grab and enjoy. No need for cate cutting, plates or silverware.
Of course all cupcakes were decorated accordingly with purple, yellow and green frosting and masks.

This was a great spot for family pictures and a perfect spot for the Quinceanera to sit down for a bit.
