Wording & etiquette
Good to know
Bright, festive colors are perfect—think traditional Mexican prints, bold patterns, or anything that reflects the celebratory spirit. Many guests wear red, white, and green, but the invitation's dress code will guide you. Don't overthink it; the goal is to celebrate with energy and joy.
No. Cinco de Mayo (May 5) commemorates Mexico's victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. Mexican Independence Day is September 16. Both are festive occasions, but Cinco de Mayo has become a broader celebration of Mexican culture and heritage in North America.
