Dream Quinceañeras at DLR

A celebration fit for a Princess Disney Parks offers Dream-Come-True Quinceañeras in Grand style to 15 lucky girls. Disneyland Resort Newsroom Pixie-dusted dreams will come true April 24 for 15 young ladies from across the United States and Puerto Rico when they celebrate their Quinceañeras with an enchanted experience in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland Resort in Southern California as part of the Year of a Million Dreams celebration. A tradition in the Latin community, a Quinceañera is a young woman's celebration of her 15th birthday, which marks the transition from a child to a young woman. It is commemorated in a way that distinguishes it from her other birthdays. The royal evening ceremony begins with a dream-come-true moment for any teenage girl – a celebrity escort along a red carpet that leads to the famous Sleeping Beauty Castle. In the forecourt, she will be greeted by Disney characters and prepared for a once-in-a-lifetime celebration. Pretty as a princess in her ball gown, each young lady will share a special waltz with her father, step from her flat shoes into Cinderella-like glass slippers and receive a beautiful bouquet of flowers from her mother. Following the Castle Forecourt ceremony, each celebrated young lady will be accompanied by her special guests to a private dinner party in Fantasyland Theater. The unforgettable fete will include the traditional Quinceañera cutting of the cake and doll ceremony, two aspects of the event that also mark the transition from childhood to adulthood. Their magical Disneyland Quinceañera is scheduled to be featured in a one-hour television special on Univision network’s “El Show de Cristina.” To make these dreams come true, Disney Parks launched a national search for prospective princesses in conjunction with selected Univision news affiliates, Coca-Cola, David’s Bridal and The Cristina Show (“El Show de Cristina”). Together, they found these 15 special girls to celebrate their magical Quinceañeras at Disneyland Resort. All eligible princesses-to-be submitted essays explaining why they wanted to have their coming-of-age celebrations at “The Happiest Place on Earth.” The deadline for submissions was March 24. complete article

Wow... quincinera dresses are the most beautiful formal gowns I've seen when shopping for prom... I wish I'd had one two years ago. That birthday was less than memorable... I just hope Tuesday's not like that.

I don't suppose they'd accept a late essay from a twenty-something non-Latina...
