We were honored to attend and help plan long term client (and friend) Jim McKenna’s 70th birthday celebration in Puerto Vallarta. Here are some photos from just a few of the many events that made up this memorable and fun two week celebration with 60 of his family members and friends.

The First Week of the Birthday Celebration Took Place at the 5-Star Grand Velas Resort in Riviera Nayarit Which Offered Great Vistas Midday
