It is a very classic and timeless theme. Although we love this theme, we wanted to reimagine Cinderella. Cinderella stories have long existed in the Latino culture. There was the tale of Domitila. Domitila’s was a cook and leather artist, who was led by her dead mother’s spirit, not a fairy godmother. “A rich young man who searches for her is at first enamored of Domitila’s cooking, but learns to appreciate and love her deeper qualities.” Adelita is another story that mirrors that of Disney’s Cinderella with a cultural twist. “After her parents die, Adelita suffers mistreatment by her stepmother and mean stepsisters until she meets her true love at a fiesta.” We were inspired by Shawna Yamamoto Event Design’s recent Porch Parties.
