Olivia and Meg's journey began in their early twenties. The pair quickly became inseparable once they met after moving across the country from their respective homes to work in Southeast Wyoming. Although working in hospitality at the time, they both dreamed of one day owning their own businesses. Their bond and mutual interests led to a wonderful friendship that would eventually become sisterhood when Meg married Olivia’s brother, Alejandro, in 2020.

Nearly ten years later, the two have created a business built on their respective backgrounds in events, hospitality, food and beverage, and design.

Catalina Weddings and Events was born after years of collecting pieces, experiences, and ideas. Friends and sisters, Olivia and Meg decided to create Catalina Weddings and Events as a way to share what they love with the world.

  • Assistant Coordinator

    Priya Selvarathinam brings a wide range of experience to the CWE team, from corporate to hospitality to training. Across all of it, one thing has stayed true: bringing joy to people and making everyday moments feel special.

    When she's not helping CWE plan special moments for people, she's running Designs By The Happy Notice, her small business where she makes everything from wedding signage, to personalized gifts, to keepsakes. That maker's eye means she notices the small details that turn a nice day into an unforgettable one, and she loves nothing more than seeing a plan come together exactly the way a client imagined it.

    Priya lives in West Chester, PA with her husband, three cats, and a flock of chickens who firmly believe they're in charge. Whether she's wrangling a guest list or a hen, she brings the same warmth, patience, and sense of fun to everything she does.

    Creating positive experiences that leave a lasting impression has always been important to Marissa. She was born and raised in Chester County and is excited to give back to her community by helping bring beautiful, memorable events to life with the CWE team.
