The traditional flower arrangement carried by a quinceañera is a bouquet.
A bouquet complements the celebrant’s formal dress and may be presented during the religious service, the entrance, or the reception. Its flowers and colors are usually chosen to match the event’s theme, the dress, or the family’s preferences.
The bouquet is one of several customary accessories associated with the celebration. Other traditions may include a tiara, jewelry, a Bible or rosary, a last doll, and ceremonial shoes, although no single set of objects appears at every quinceañera.
The bouquet is sometimes confused with the crown or tiara because both can be presented ceremonially. They are different items: the bouquet is carried in the hands, while the tiara is worn on the head.
