Sweetest Wedding Surprise!

We surprised our daughter, son-in-love and their wedding guests with Ears with Beers, and seeing their reactions was one of the sweetest moments of the day! Carry & Spirit were an absolute hit. Paula was the reason we felt so good about booking—she was quick to respond, professional, and clearly adores her fur babies. We couldn’t have asked for a more special addition to the wedding! I'll share pics as soon as we get them from the photographer.

Ears with beers make smiles

We loved Ears with Beers! Working with Paula was a delight. We booked them as soon as we had a wedding date. They were a favorite of the guests and what I most looked forward to seeing. With rain forecasted, Paula even went above and beyond to suggest rain plan ideas and help calm me down, as mother of the bride. Ears with Beers are the best. It is not a wedding without them:-) Thank you Paula!

We don’t have all our photos yet but we had the photographer take some great ones with them :)

Ears with Beers

Thank you for making our daughter's wedding magical. The Burros - Carrie and Spirit were adorable and made cocktail hour a hit on the beautiful grounds of Camp Lucy -Ian's Chapel. Carrie and Spirit were definitely show stoppers as well as their two darling handlers. Everyone was super excited with this additional to cocktail hour and it was a surprise to our guest. Thank you again, it was awesome and so fun. Gary and Sami (Father/Mother of the Bride)

A unique (and adorable) way to add to your cocktail hour!

Let me just say I was SO excited to have these little burros at our wedding. My only bummer was that my husband and I didn't arrive to cocktail hour sooner to spend more time with them! Paula is great to work with and responsive to email, and my guests all raved at how cute and fun it was to have the beer burros there. It's a little extra splurge on the day, but for us it was totally worth it! So unique, and fun.

Sweetest Cocktail Hour Surprise!

Ears with Beers was the absolute best! Could not recommend more as a fun little surprise for your guests. Throughout the stressors of wedding planning, I knew I had these sweet little donkeys to look forward to. Carrie and Spirit were adorable and so friendly. Our guests loved taking alllll the pictures with them during cocktail hour and could not stop raving about how cute they were. Paula and her staff were fantastic, easy to work with, and responded quickly to every question. Could not recommend more!

Cutest addition to our wedding!

Absolute delight! Most of our guests were from Chicago and have never been to Texas, so we wanted them to experience beer donkeys. They all loved them and the donkeys were too adorable. We got to interact with them too right after our ceremony before we finished taking pictures, and my only regret is that we didn’t personally spend more time with them because our guests loved them so much. They were so friendly and well mannered and took pictures with our guests that wanted photos with them. Big hit!

Our Guests Favorite Part!!

These little guys were a huge hit! We made our grand entrance with them - it was incredible! Paula did a great job keeping them hidden until we entered the party (not easy to do). These are some of our favorite photos from the who day, book them now!

Krissy and Manny Wedding

Ears with Beers was a fantastic addition to our wedding day! The beer burros were incredibly friendly and cute, and the coordinators always provided open communication weeks/months leading up to our special day. They were undeniably a spotlight amongst our guests, and it would not have been complete without them. Thank you, Ears with Beers!
