Dream Team

I cannot say enough about Donna and Sierra! They were absolutely amazing to work with and made the entire wedding planning such a breeze (seriously, a no stress wedding). They were always quick to respond to emails, questions. The day of our wedding, they took care of EVERYTHING from set-up to clean-up while I laid back (aha) and got pampered by my HAMU crew! Everything was perfect and as far as I know, it went perfectly with nothing going wrong!

Donna is the

If you are a perfectionist like my husband, then rest assure that you cannot go wrong with hiring Donna. Her ability to be on top of all sorts of wedding details is impeccable. If you hire Donna, she will communicate with you monthly or weekly to keep you on the ball of all the minor details that didn't even cross your mind. She's also easy to work with and you can tell she has fun while working professionally with you. My husband took the initiate of hiring her. Even though I thought I was going to be caple of handling all my wedding planning. But long story short, once I started reading about wedding planning, I realized that organizing a party as a Bride can be overwhelming. So looking back, I couldn't be happier with the overall results of our wedding. Everything was perfect! Thank you, Donna :)

Above and Beyond!!

Donna was spectacular!! I couldn’t have asked for a more talented and devoted wedding planner. She was always there when I needed her expertise and I love how she would always give me her honest advice. When I first started preparing my to do list for my wedding it seemed so overwhelming. Donna and her team keep you on track the whole way without it being overwhelming and stressful. Donna can truly do it all she decorated my cake table, and it was just the way I had envisioned it. I highly recommend using Donna and her team you will not regret it!!

Perfect beyond words!

Let me start by saying everyone at Ame Soeur Events is just AMAZING! Donna was just the best throughout the entire wedding planning process! When we first started planning, I thought my mom and I would do it without a wedding planner. I’m SO glad we decided to hire Donna and her team. They kept us on track and helped us remember all the little details that can easily get forgotten! They answered every email and text very quickly that I felt like I was their only bride! I truly loved every meeting we had with her. Not only was the planning process super easy with them but the day of coordinating exceed every expectation!! Seriously, they didn’t miss a beat and I was amazed it was just 2 people keeping everything going smoothly. They achieved the dreamy and romantic vibe that I wanted far better than I imagined! Everything was decorated so beautifully and PERFECT!! I still can’t get over how magical and incredible the whole day was. I can’t thank Donna and her team enough for how perfect they made our wedding!! I’m going to miss all the Starbucks meetups. They truly were such a dream to work with!! We ONE MILLION percent recommend Ame Soeur Events to every bride!! Thank y’all SOOO much again!!!

Everything was perfect!

Donna was amazing! I was so worried about putting my planning in the hands of someone else because I’m such a perfectionist but Donna NAILED IT! Her team were so helpful during the entire process. They organized and decorated everything better than I could even imagine! The only thing I stressed about was the walk down the isle and even the communication right before helped calm me down. Definitely recommending to everyone 😁

Attention to details

You know that statement...You don't know what you don't know? Well not to worry when hiring Donna and her staff to help plan your wedding or in this case my daughters wedding. I pride myself, as does my daughter, of being very organized and prepared. Well unless you do weddings all the time nothing can prepare you for this big event. I thought I knew everything there was to know until we met with Donna! There we so many details we had never thought about. She had everything down to a T...like a science! They kept us on schedule and on track with weekly emails and to do lists. It was remarkable.
We would never have gotten through with out Donna and her team. The wedding went off with out a hitch...EVERY THING was PERFECT! To that we owe Ame Soeur Events all the thanks and give them all the credit. We would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone in the Austin area planning a wedding. Love these guys a bunch!

Donna is Awesome

Donna of Ame Soeur Events did a excellent job for our wedding. I didn't need a ton of help prior to the day-of and she gave me a very reasonable deal on a limited package. Her services took the pressure of logistics off of me and allowed me to enjoy my wedding to the fullest. I would highly recommend her and her company to brides who need a little extra help pulling everything off (all brides - because weddings are crazy am I right??).

I'm so thankful for Donna and her team!

Donna and her team are wonderful to work with! I am so thankful for them and all the work they did to make our day perfect. She kept me on task with the to-do list and made sure I didn't stress about the small stuff. I still did, but in the end the day was amazing. I couldn't have done it with her expertise and the hard work of her team behind the scenes. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a coordinator for the big day. thanks, Donna and Ame Sour Events!

Better than we could have dreamed!

Donna was an absolute joy to work with! Our package at our venue included day of coordinating, but her addition just brought everything to the next level. It seems like every wedding is as exciting as their first. Not only that, seeing everything come together better than you can even imagine, without the stress and worry of doing it yourself, is almost like you’re in a fairy tale...or in our case, a dark and moody fairy tale. I loved every minute of working with Donna!

Amazing to work with!

Hiring donna as our coordinator was the best decision we made! Donna made the entire planning process smooth and easy for us! You always hear about the nightmare planning stories....we had none of those thanks to Donna! We met with Donna several times throughout the process. She made sure everything was covered - even the small details of who will be taking the gifts at the end of the night. She was so kind and very patient with us! She gave us excellent vendor recommendations and was a great sounding board for ideas. She is so knowledgeable in the industry I felt confident in every decision I made knowing she was there to help if i needed anything. On the day of the ceremony, Donna made sure to keep everyone in line and on time and where they needed to be! Anything we or even our family needed, Donna was right there. I highly suggest if you have it in your budget to hire Donna and her staff to help you out! You won't regret it!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
