About

My love for creativity is reflected in my academic background in Communication, Events, and Digital Media, as well as my passion for interior design, areas in which I have also specialized. Since I was a child, I've enjoyed organizing themed celebrations and perfecting every detail, leading me to develop unique skills in crafting unforgettable experiences for each event.

My aim is to exceed the client's expectations by providing an excellent service (before and during the event), following the logistics, timelines, and curating the design and concept for the event.

About my credentials: 

I am a young experienced Wedding Planner from Mexico City who specialized in Events Management at William Angliss Institute in Melbourne, Australia.

During my time in Melbourne, I got the opportunity to work at some of the largest and most important events such as the Formula 1 Grand Prix, The Australian Open, The Melbourne Cup and The Food and Wine Festival. I was involved in the coordination of numerous Gala Dinners and Fundraiser Events and worked for one of the largest Catering companies in Melbourne (Atlantic Group) where I gained experience not only in logistics and production but also in high quality service.

Once I returned from Melbourne, I started to work at a local company in San Miguel de Allende, assisting the Director and coordinating over 50 Destination Weddings. For over 3 years I was in charge of the whole planning process including: budgeting, catering, styling, flowers, logistics and production.

After those years, I moved back to Mexico City and started to work as an Event Coordinator at Gonzalez + Helfon, one of the most prestigious, creative and major event companies in Mexico. While working at G+H, I organized events all over Mexico, Los Angeles and Miami.

During the pandemics, as the events were paused, I decided to do a Masters in Interactive Digital Media at Griffith College in Dublin, Ireland. When the events industry resumed its activities, I came back to San Miguel de Allende and continued planning and coordinating weddings.

Nowadays, I work as an Independent Destination Wedding Planner doing what I love: creating unforgettable experiences for my clients.

Mariana blew it out of the water. The wedding was magical and I know everyone says this about their own wedding, but she made it the most beautiful and intimate wedding I’ve ever been to. The color choices and flower arrangement's were immaculate. All of the decorations were elegant and divine. And her connections in San Miguel meant for a wedding full of caring and talented people. Absolutely recommend her. If you are reading this, don’t even look at other planners. Just go with Mariana! You will not be disappointed.

Working with Mariana was such a great experience. We had her help planning our wedding in Mexico while we lived in San Diego California. Her responsiveness and quick actions really made us feel so secure about our destination wedding. She took the time to truly understand my style and vision and she had so many great connections and recommendations that made the planning process so easy. Multiple guests came up to us to tell us how great she was as the day-of coordinator! Thank you Mariana! Our wedding turned out stunning and everything went so smoothly.
