But the aircraft seemed shaky, and a problem with one of the wings caused the Piper PA-25-235 Pawnee aircraft to crash a short while later.
It lost control and landed in a field close by. Unaware that the plane had just crashed, the attendees at the gender reveal party were celebrating the good news.
After a worried partygoer called the emergency services, they arrived on the scene. Luis Ángel, 32, was identified as the pilot by Mexican news agency Línea Directa Portal.
After the collision, he was taken to the Mexican Social Security Institute, but he tragically passed away.
According to the Aviation Safety Network, the “left-hand wing failed after an emergency hopper release of (pink dyed) water during a gender reveal party”
