What Quincebook does

Quincebook is the planning binder for the quinceañera — built around how these celebrations actually come together: a 12-month countdown, a circle of padrinos each covering a piece of the party, a court of honor that needs wrangling, and a budget that touches all of it.

Set the date and Quincebook stages a month-by-month checklist from 'book the salón' down to 'confirm the mariachi.' The padrino ledger is the heart of the app: add each padrino or madrina, assign what they're sponsoring — the cake, the vals choreography, the photographer, la última muñeca — and track pledged, received and thanked, so the conversation with tía never gets awkward. The court roster keeps your damas and chambelanes honest: fittings done, practices attended, parents' numbers on file, so you see who's wobbling before they drop out two weeks before the party.

The budget board shows estimated versus actual per category with padrino coverage netted out, so you always know what the family is really paying. Vendor cards hold quotes, deposits, due dates and notes from every tasting and walkthrough.

No account to create, no login to lose, nothing uploaded. Quincebook is 100% offline — everything lives on your phone in local SwiftData storage, and the app is completely free.

What's inside

• Countdown checklist — Set the quince date and a 12-month task timeline is generated in staged buckets (12–9 months, 9–6, 6–3, final month, party week); tasks can be added, edited and checked off, and the home screen shows the countdown plus the next tasks due.
• Padrino ledger — Add each padrino/madrina with the item they sponsor (cake, dress, vals, photography, salón, última muñeca or custom), an amount, and a status that moves pledged → received → thanked; a summary shows total sponsored versus family-paid.
• Budget board — Budget categories with estimated versus actual amounts; padrino contributions linked from the ledger are netted against each category so the family's true out-of-pocket is always visible, with an over/under indicator per line.
• Court & vendor book — Roster of damas and chambelanes with role, outfit-fitting status, practice attendance counter and a parent contact note; plus vendor cards (venue, DJ, photographer, dressmaker, choreographer) holding quotes, deposit paid, balance due date and freeform notes.

Why we built it

A quinceañera is a year-long, multi-sponsor project: families must remember which padrino pledged the cake versus the vals, whether the money actually arrived, which dama has missed fittings and practices (court dropouts are endemic), and how dozens of vendor deposits roll up against a budget that almost always overru…

What makes it different

Unlike Shagun (a running gift-money ledger for Indian family occasions) and Mehndi (a booking and portfolio app for henna artists running a business), Quincebook is a single-event project planner: a dated 12-month task timeline, sponsorship assignments tied to budget lines, and a people roster with fitting/practice st…
