With a background as a planner at one of the top wedding design firms in NYC, Gabby planned a thoughtful, intimate, destination wedding in San Miguel de Allande Mexico. Gabby and Ivan's celebration combined their Persian & Mexican heritages among the lush and vibrant garden at Casa Hyder.  After their vows, one of the more memorable moments of their celebration included a callejona, or dancing procession of the couple, guests, mariachi band, floral covered donkeys & mojigangas (giant puppets designed to represent the bride & groom).
