About
What do you get when you combine a stressed bride with Amber Events? A happy bride and a seamless wedding! From "Month Of" to "Full Production" in backyard gardens or sumptuous venues, Amber Events will turn your dream wedding into the best day of your life!

Los Angeles based wedding coordinator Amber Gustafson is in love with texture, things that sparkle, and the drama of fabulous parties. Married to her high school sweetheart from Arkansas, Amber is the fun mix of Southern tradition and charm and Urban eccentricity and edge. Amber considers herself a romantic soul, a realistic businesswoman, a free spirit, an organized individual, an opinionated gal, a good people person, and a funny lady. You can be the judge on the funny part. She also plays well with others and is known for bringing it all together when Mom gets fussy, when the flower girl gets mad, and when prima donna vendors think that it’s all about them. An avid world traveler, she dreams of helping you create your dream wedding on a beach in Fiji, a chateau in France, a villa in Italy, or a castle in Scotland.

Endorsements
I've had the pleasure of working with Amber recently on a wedding and was impressed with her professionalism and sense of calm she kept throughout the event. Highly recommended!!
Amber will not only be your event planner, but she will become your friend, too. When I work with Amber, I know the event will be well coordinated, tastefully and artistically designed, and on schedule. You can't do wrong by trusting Amber to design your wedding day.

Additional Questions and Answers

As an active member on the steering committee of the Association of Bridal Consultants I am constantly learning, networking, and expanding my professional horizons. As a coordinator, I believe that a wedding should be a true reflection of my bride and groom and I encourage creativity and playing around with non-traditional ideas. Planning a wedding should be a fun process and I aim to give my clients piece of mind as well as guidance, advice, emotional support, and great ideas.
