I keep saying that one piece of advice people always give to a couple before their wedding day is ‘things will go wrong, just accept that and move on - the day is about you two’; we can truly say there wasn’t a single thing that we can think of that didn’t go as imagined or planned and it was absolutely due to Melissa’s amazing planning, coordination and detail-oriented thinking.

About me

I'm a Mexican wedding planner based in San Miguel de Allende. You'll find me strolling the cobblestone streets with my dog or immersed in ceramics. I entered this industry at 18, but at 26, I found myself questioning the purpose behind my work. It was planning my father's 60th birthday that rekindled my passion. Witnessing the joy of bringing loved ones together in one place—where toasts, laughter, heartfelt tears, and dancing abound—reminded me why I do this. Creating experiences and celebrating love became my answer.

With a deep appreciation for beauty and a spirit of service, I'm dedicated to planning exceptional experiences that evoke love and joy. I believe our memories become more precious over time as we recognize the profound value of moments spent with loved ones. The joys of hosting, sharing, and gathering evolve into cherished treasures. These memorable occasions are born from thoughtful, meticulous planning.

If you're seeking a planner who's genuinely curious about your story and unabashedly romantic, I'd love to chat.
