Quince During Covid

Covid affected everything in our lives One of those things being parties, specifically Quinceñeras. A big moment in many young Mexican girls lives. A time where for some is a religious event and for others is a big party for friends and family Sometimes it can even be both.

While talking with Zayra, she explained to me her experience in planning her quinceñera in this unique time At the time of the interview, March 2022, she had yet to celebrate her quinceñera.

While planning, her first obstacle was finding a venue She explains how it was difficult to find a place that would be safe for her guests and able to house all of them, The biggest ask was to have an open air venue to avoid quick spreading which would be more possible in a small room
