Salsa and Salsa–Mazatlan Mexico

This post is LONG overdue!

When we were in Mexico for our wedding in February, I was looking for fun activities for our group!  Being the foodie that I am, when I saw Salsa and Salsa it was a match made in Heaven!

Thanks again to Calla Evans for the amazing photos!

In total, 14 of our guests jumped on 2 trucks to start our fun!!

A little back story – Both the girls and guys had stags/stagettes the night before – so some people were feeling a little rough!!   It was also Valentine’s Day – hence the (very strong) margarita heart upon arrival!

When you show up, everyone gets aprons and chef hats!!

And you sit at your table with a partner, and have all the goodies in front of you!  Including stuff to make amazing salsa, guacamole and a whole lot of booze!

The lovely ladies that run Salsa and Salsa (Hi ladies!) knew we were coming and that our wedding was the next day – so they made it really special for us!!

They called us up to the front and gave us special hats decorated for our wedding (mine included a 10 foot veil) and gave us cupcakes to share with the guests!

IT was great!  They called us to the front many times during the whole day! (And made us kiss – or was that my mom!!)

Anyways – we had lots of great drinks including a REAL margarita (aka boozey mc boozertown!)

And a watermelon juice!

Truth be told – we had to bring the (ahem hung-over) guys to come with us, but then ended up having an awesome time!

Especially since they had a lot more to drink when we got there! J&D_0520

Making real salsa is hard work!!  But so worth it in the end!
