Quinceanera Rings
From LoveToKnow Party
During the Quinceanera, the 15-year-old guest of honor will be presented with several traditional gifts, including Quinceanera rings.
Quinceanera Rings
The Quinceanera ring, symbolizing the circle of life, is used as a place marker to hopefully be replaced by an engagement or wedding ring. The ring also has religious meaning, hoping to remind the Quinceanera of God’s unending love. In fact, at the Quinceanera mass, the priest will bless the ring and all gifts of jewelry. After the ring is blessed, it is presented on a special pillow to the fifteen year old during the mass by one of her padrinos, or godparents.
Many times the ring is part of a set. The Quinceanera also receives
- A tiara - Symbolizes growing up.
- A scepter – At the mass, the Quinceanera will trade a bouquet of frivolous flowers for a more responsible scepter.
- Religious items such as a rosary, cross, or religious medals so she’s reminded of her faith.
- Earrings which will remind her to listen to her heart and to God.
- Bracelet
