What Spanish term names the group of attendants forming a quinceañera’s court of honor?

The Spanish term for a quinceañera’s court of honor is corte de honor.

The corte de honor consists of selected friends or relatives who accompany the celebrant during formal parts of the event. Depending on regional and family custom, it can include young women, young men, or a mixed group. Members may wear coordinated clothing, enter in a procession, participate in photographs, and perform the formal dance.

The court is sometimes confused with a wedding party because both groups may have coordinated attire and ceremonial roles. A quinceañera’s court, however, belongs to a coming-of-age celebration rather than a marriage ceremony. Its size and title are flexible, and some modern celebrations use a smaller group or omit the court entirely.
