Fernanda & Paul's Enchanted Celebration in the Forest.

Fernanda and Paul tied the knot at Rancho Mesa de Gallos, an extraordinary venue nestled in the forested hills of Valle de Bravo. With over 580 guests, the wedding was a grand yet deeply intimate celebration, where stunning design, flawless coordination, and heartfelt moments came together to tell a love story that truly deserved the cinematic lens.

Getting Ready | A Calm Morning Before the Magic


The day began peacefully at Fernanda’s family home. With the help of makeup artist Paola Kanahuati and hairstylist Adriana, she spent the morning surrounded by her closest family. By 10:00 a.m., the florals, bridal bouquet, and video team had arrived, setting the stage for a heartfelt first look with her father and later with Paul.

A Sacred Vows | Forest Ceremony & Civil Union


The religious ceremony began at 1:30 PM, framed by garden-style floral arrangements with an asymmetrical design and natural greenery. Floating bubble lights and a soft palette of lilac, ivory, sage, and blush made the forest feel like something out of a fairytale.

Immediately after, the couple held a civil ceremony with just family and witnesses, toasting with champagne surrounded by nature.

Cocktail Hour | A Garden-Inspired Delight


Guests were welcomed with signature cocktails like Aperol Spritz, mezcal with hibiscus, tamarind margaritas, and more. Canapés like Ensenada-style crispy fish tacos, cochinita panuchos, mini ceviche martinis, and chipotle chili with tamarind sauce were passed around, all under the shade of umbrellas and among earthy-toned lounge furniture.

The Wedding Film

The reception setup featured over 40 tables with varied layouts, all showcasing a Tuscan inspired garden style. Each table was adorned with terracotta and wicker details, seasonal fruits, lush greenery, and personalized candle arrangements. The dinner menu offered giant shrimp with citrus butter, slow-cooked beef, tamales, couscous, roasted vegetables, and a trilogy of elegant desserts.

The dance floor opened after the emotional family dances with the bride, groom, parents, and siblings. The DJ set lit up the night, joined by tequila shots, confetti, slippers for dancing, and a stunning dessert table featuring everything from mini cinnamon rolls and alfajores to Nutella waffles and matcha cookies. Guests were treated to not one, but two rounds of late-night snacks: first with tortas de cochinita and tacos, and later with chilaquiles and refried beans a perfect ending to a night full of joy.
