Hispanic-American families are spending an average of $20,000 on "Quinces" - a Hispanic tradition that commemorates a young girl's journey from childhood to maturity with a celebration that highlights their faith family, friends, music, food, and dance. The 15 Candles Expo has been developed with this in mind.

"In the past, young girls had to attend bridal shows to get ideas and begin the party-planning process," said Mayra Etayo, President of the National Association of Wedding Planners. "Today, 15 Candles offers a refreshing alternative - they can attend a show with other girls their age who are going through the same experiences as they are. 15 Candles is what these soon-to-be 15 and 16-year old girls have been waiting for. It's their show!"

The 15 Candles exhibit floor will be open from 1:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. with fabulous door prizes, food and refreshments and entertainment!
