Garden: the esplanade where the corporate gala gathers 350 people and where each guest leaves with the wooden anniversary box
The Garden in CDMX is the large-format green space where Mexican companies with tradition, multi-generation business families and corporate foundations host their anniversary galas, their benefit dinners with social cause, their high-end weddings with invited executives and their diplomatic receptions with consular corps accredited in Mexico. The capacity of the Garden runs from 150 to 250 guests in gala dinner format with round tables of ten, 200 in cocktail format with bar stations distributed around the perimeter, 350 in theatre format with stage at front and side grandstands for special guests. The Garden holds architectural lighting with warm LED floodlights, roofed stage with backline for orchestra or band, parquet or marble dance floor, Hollywood-style awning for rain, exterior heating with chimneys, back-of-house with industrial kitchen, climate-controlled cellar and private parking. We coordinate four merch packages for galas and high-end weddings.

The Garden operates with one main guest entrance and two service entrances: the first through the service road with capacity for a 3.5-tonne truck, the second through the staff parking. Merch delivery is made with prior identification of operations staff and logbook signature, generally in a 9:00 to 14:00 window before the Garden setup, with protection of the material from rain and sun. For galas with gala dinner, we coordinate with the Garden chef and the sommelier for sync of wine service with the kit delivery at the table.
For galas with diplomatic corps accredited in Mexico, we follow the protocol of the Mexican Foreign Service and the Coordinacion General de Protocolo of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs when applicable, with reserved pieces and ceremonial signature. For galas with international touring artists, we coordinate with the manager and customs regime when the artist merch crosses the border (USMCA compliance, foreign trade complement).
For galas with live broadcast or television coverage, we coordinate with the communications area of the corporate or business family for prior media accreditation and for reserved delivery of the press kit before the gala starts. The merch chain of custody is documented with signature, time and where the corporate protocol allows, discreet photography at each Garden control point.
Garden tax compliance, deductible donation and weddings
The Garden operates with outdoor operation rules that the merch must respect: no merch with flammable elements (candles, pyrotechnics, oil lamps), no merch with materials that deteriorate with humidity, no pets, no merch with unauthorised third-party logos by the corporate or hosting family. For rainy-season galas we follow the Garden protocol by switching to synthetic and laminated merch versions that withstand light rain.
For benefit galas with social cause, we coordinate with the beneficiary institution (civil association, foundation, trust) for issuance of the deductible receipt under article 27 of the LISR, with compliance of SAT requirements for deductible donations. For galas with international donor presence, we follow the protocol of the Ministry of Finance for foreign donations, with coordination with the authorised institution to receive international donations.
For high-end weddings with invited executive and business family, we follow the Garden protocol with reserved pieces for the wedding party and family guests. For SAT invoicing, we issue CFDI 4.0 with 16% IVA breakdown and supporting documentation for deduction as Public Relations, Marketing or Corporate Events expense, depending on the merch use. For corporates with IMMEX operations, we provide complementary invoicing in USD with IMMEX Decree compliance.
