Bakersfield – CA, April 21, 2014 – Following a record setting attendance at their most recent event, the Quinceanera.com Expo and Fashion Show continued its traveling series throughout Southern California. This time, the free event attended by future quinceañeras and their preparing families landed at the Marriot Hotel located near Bakersfield Convention Center this past Sunday April 13th.
More than 700 people gathered starting at noon and lined up to visit the numerous booths offering party planning products and services including quinceañera dresses, venues, cakes, makeup, décor, photo, catering and even DJ services.
“I really liked the expo, there were many things to see and it was a lot of fun”, said Lorena, a fourteen-year-old girl who will be celebrating her quinceañera in March 2015.
As quinceañera celebrations are trending and the planning tends to get chaotic, the purpose of the expo is to bring both vendors and consumers together. Dion Altamirano, from Photo Booth Company, said he was thrilled with the results from his sponsor participation at the Quinceanera.com Expo, ” I made 17 contracts last year and it was amazing! I’ve made even more now and the event is going on for two more hours”.
As usual, the fashion show was the most anticipated part of the expo. The latest trends on dresses that were showcased were from Moda 2000, Mitzy, and fashion designer and regular contributor to Azteca America, Eruvey Tapia, who also noted, “This is the first time I’ve participated in an expo and I am beyond excited about being able to make this connection with my community. I will gladly come again if invited.”
Miguel Renovato and Jennifer Meza, the two young talents from LenteVision who emceed the event, captivated the audience with their dynamic and joyful energy as they introduced Esmeralda Ramos, Quinceanera.com’s Bakersfield Cover Girl, who looked spectacular wearing a fabulous gown by Eruvey.
All of which lead up to grupero singer, Cheyo Carrillo, taking over the stage followed by the screams and tears of future quinceañeras who later sang his hits. The expo, featuring a fabulous runway show, raffles, prizes, live music and free makeup trials, proved once again to be spectacular for all of those who attended.
Mitzy and Moda 2000 were the sponsors of the event. Register to the next Quinceanera.com Expo and Fashion Show in Orange County on June 5th 2014.
