Azteca Noticias reported that several wedding guests remained hospitalized as of Monday.

Food and drinks were provided by Grupo Paraíso, a wedding planning service, according to the outlet.

It's unknown what type of dessert was served by the caterer. 

DailyMail.com reached out to Grupo Paraíso for comment.

A similar incident took took place in June 2023 when the groom and 109 invitees fell ill with stomach pain, diarrhea and vomit following a wedding reception in the central city of Tepotzotlán, north of Mexico City.

At least 12 people were rushed to area hospitals while 64 were treated at the wedding party hall.

Another person died and 37 fell sick from food poisoning at a wedding in Salamanca, Spain in July 2023.

With the start of wedding season around the corner, the United States Department of Agriculture  (USDA) has some information that brides and grooms should seek when hiring catering companies.

Couples should inquire about who on the staff is certified to handle food.

'Certification means proper  training in safe food handling methods,' the agency says.

They should also ask the caterers what potential allergens will be used on the food that will be offered to their guests on their special day.

'Notify guests of common allergens, such as milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat and soybeans,' the USDA notes.

It also mention that it's important to find out where the food will be prepared.

And if it's being handled outside the wedding reception site, the USDA recommends that it is important to 'have plenty of knives, cutting boards, dish towels, and dish soap available for onsite preparation.' 

The USSA also cautions not to 'let food sit out for more than 2 hours' and that 'perishables can only be left out for 1 hour during hot (90°F and up) summer temperatures.'
