In the enchanting land of Albuquerque, destiny played the role of a mischievous matchmaker, bringing together two remarkable individuals. Francis, the charming and ever-ambitious proprietor of a roofing and stucco company, found himself utterly entranced by the fabulous and astute Arely—a polyglot and savvy businesswoman directing sales and trades at a paper and packaging company. Their shared passion for nature, food, businesses, and travel, connected them immediately, and paved the way for a lifetime of love. 

As their lives intertwined, Francis and Arely embarked on countless adventures, exploring new horizons and creating lasting memories. Their love for travel led them to amazing new destinations, but it was within the walls of their beautiful home in Corrales, NM that their love truly flourished.

On a fateful day in Cuernavaca, Mexico, Arely celebrated her birthday, blissfully unaware of the surprise that was about to unfold. With the deft assistance of Arely’s sister, Francis orchestrated an elaborate ruse masquerading as a birthday bash. Amidst the revelry, he seized the moment to propose—while Arely was contemplating the whereabouts of the cake. The shock and joy that illuminated her face proved that sometimes the best surprises are the ones we least expect.

As their love story continued to blossom, life bestowed them with another delightful surprise when they found out they were expecting a baby! To add a twist of irony, the due date coincided with their original wedding date. As the anticipation of their growing family set in, Francis and Arely decided to postpone their wedding date, ensuring that their little one could partake in the festivities—and because, let’s face it, planning a wedding while juggling a newborn is a feat worthy of a medal.

Now, Francis and Arely cordially invite you to join them on October 18, 2025, at the breathtaking Hacienda Sac Chich in the stunning Yucatán, Mexico. Prepare to witness them officially declare their love while little Wren inevitably steals the spotlight—and perhaps throws in an impromptu performance or two. So, mark your calendars, polish your dancing shoes, and prepare for an evening brimming with love, laughter, and the delightful unpredictability that comes with family. Trust us, this is one party that promises to be unforgettable
