In a quinceañera court, what is the honoree’s group of attendants called?

The honoree’s group of attendants in a quinceañera is commonly called the court of honor.

The court usually consists of young people selected by the quinceañera, her family, or both. It may include male attendants known as chambelanes and female attendants known by several regional names, including damas.

Court members often accompany the honoree during her entrance and participate in rehearsed dances. Their formal clothing can coordinate with the honoree’s dress, although styles differ widely among families and countries.

The court of honor is not required for a quinceañera. Some celebrations feature a full court, some include only a few attendants, and others focus on family members or a solo presentation. The term describes a customary ceremonial group, not a legal institution.
