What is the customary Spanish name for the quinceañera’s court of attendants?

The customary Spanish name for a quinceañera’s court of attendants is corte de honor.

The phrase means “court of honor.” It refers to the group of relatives, friends, or other young people who accompany the honoree during formal parts of the celebration. Members may participate in the entrance, coordinated dances, photographs, and other presentations at the reception.

The composition of the court is not fixed. In some traditions it includes girls and boys; in others it is smaller, includes only close friends, or is omitted altogether. English descriptions may use “court,” “court of honor,” or “honor court,” while Spanish-speaking families may use corte de honor.

The court should not be confused with the honoree’s individual escort or with adult sponsors. Those roles can overlap in a particular family’s celebration, but they are not automatically identical. Modern quinceañeras frequently adapt the traditional court to reflect the honoree’s preferences, family structure, and cultural setting.
