About the role

Feeding the most important day of someone's life in one of the world's most beautiful cities. A San Miguel destination wedding — 100 guests from New York and Chicago, colonial courtyard reception, mariachi transitioning to jazz quartet, three-course dinner as the stars emerge over Guanajuato — is one of the most extraordinary events in Mexican hospitality. The event kitchen team that makes that dinner happen is at the center of that memory.
