Who doesn't love a good quinceanera? Well this was my first one and let me tell you, I had no idea what I was in for! Devnie is a beautiful girl and obviously very loved, she had fourteen padrinos and ten sponsers, not to mention her parents, grandparents and about 100 friends and other family members, all doting on her for this very special day. The ceremony was lovely and the party afterwards, wow, great fun! I was honored to be a part of it all. Thanks Devnie and mom, Marisa!
First stop, the hair salon...
Getting pretty...
From a little girl to a young lady...
The smallest padrino...
An arch of roses...
A blessing from the pastor...
Lots of gifts and lots of hugs...
After about 8000 group pictures I'm sure Devnie had cramps in her cheeks!
Then off to the party in a big limo...
Details, details...
Time to switch shoes with some help from dad...
Devnie and friends did a big group dance in their matching shirts...
Some cake and a toast and then (phew!) off to bed!
Goodnight, grown up Devnie! Maybe I'll see you at your wedding in a few, no make that several, years! Thanks for including me in your big day, I wish you all the best in the future.
