Our story
It all began when we were planning our own wedding with the help of our families in 2004. As we began the planning process, we stumbled upon issues in the planning process that made it challenging to navigate. With countless hours of hard work and planning, we successfully pulled off the wedding of our dreams, one of the first on the beach at that hotel in Puerto Vallarta. Fast forward one year and the hotel we were married at reached out to us ask if we were still in the industry as they had a wedding they were looking for us to plan. It was then that a great adventure began which has since turned into a successful enterprise which has also proudly created jobs for so many people.

LOVE TO CULTIVATE RELATIONSHIPS WITH MY COUPLES AND TRANSLATE THEIR STORY INTO UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES FOR THEM AND THEIR GUESTS
I have a degree on International Business but since i was in high school i was always involved on planning conferences and parties for the school then at University, so my passion for planning started since then! In 2005 I started my Wedding Planner career and founded Prisar Weddings and Events in 2008.
One of my strengths is that I use my creative problem solving skills in order to turn ideas into a reality.
I have specialized in Jewish + kosher weddings over the last few years.
I am currently studying for a masters in Innovative Tourism Marketing to keep up to date on all wedding trends and other Wedding Industry related topics. This has always been one of my priorities to remain one of the best in the industry.
Love to share my knowledge with others participating on wedding conferences and workshops.
Helping my community is one of my strong commitments for which Hector my husband has been a great example for me!
During my free time I enjoy going to the movies, play sequence with my kids and drink a glass of a good wine watching Puerto Vallarta Sunset!
