Whitney V. Sent on 12/08/2023I would give 10 stars if i could! Amber is the best!
My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with the incredible Amber Mollison, owner of Angel Lion Wedding Planning, for our 3-day wedding extravaganza in Venice, Italy. To say that Amber exceeded our expectations is an understatement – she truly made our wedding dreams come to life in the most enchanting way possible.
Amber's dedication to her craft is unmatched. Despite juggling countless other weddings, she was available around the clock, ensuring that every detail of our celebration was executed flawlessly. From the initial planning stages to the last farewell, Amber demonstrated a level of commitment that went above and beyond.
What set Amber apart was her meticulous attention to detail. As a detail-oriented bride, I was not always the easiest client, but Amber worked with me patiently, offering her guidance at precisely the right moments. She captured the essence of our vision, effortlessly blending the worlds of Bridgerton and the Great Gatsby against the stunning backdrop of Venice.
Amber's personal touch was evident in every aspect of our celebration. She took the time to get to know each member of our family and wedding party, ensuring that the entire experience felt tailored to our personalities. Her extensive network of contacts allowed her to handpick the perfect vendors who added unique elements to our wedding – from custom portraits for each guest to a curated cigar bar.
One of Amber's standout qualities is her communication skills. She kept us informed at every step, making the planning process a breeze. Whether we needed her input or were ready to take the reins, Amber was consistently on time with every milestone, instilling confidence in us every step of the way, even despite the 12-hour time difference! She made it happen!
Amber's creativity reached beyond the wedding day itself. She orchestrated a Welcome Party, a private opera, and a farewell boat day that took our breath away. The winery tour on Mazzorbo, the tour guide on Burano, and the delectable food along the way showcased her commitment to providing a truly immersive experience for our guests.
In the end, Amber became not just our wedding planner but a cherished friend. Her warmth, genuine care, and passion for her work were palpable throughout the entire process. Our family and friends unanimously declared our wedding the event of the century, and we owe it all to Amber and her exceptional team.
If you're in search of a wedding planner who not only meets your needs but exceeds them with grace, style, and a wealth of knowledge, look no further than Amber Mollison. She is, without a doubt, the best of the best, and we will forever cherish the memories she helped create. Thank you, Amber, for making our wedding a true fairytale! -

Anneke K. Sent on 10/12/2023Best Decision Ever, our dream Destination Wedding was a big Success!
I have so much appreciation and admiration for Amber and her team!
As many other people all over the world, our wedding was supposed to happen in 2021 but had to unfortunately be delayed due to the pandemic. We stood strong in our decision to celebrate it in Venice which meant we just had to wait.
Once we finally found a date, we knew we would need some professional help to make our dream destination wedding a success!
We found Amber and from our first conversation we felt confident she was the one to make the distance between Perth and Venice smaller!
She guided us through every step of the planning, giving us great advice and options.
The vendors she works with were all impeccable! From the Celebrant, the musicians, photographer, florist, hair and makeup artists to the Henna artist, every single one of them were professional and did an outstanding job!
I literally supplied Amber with my vision and she made my dreams come true.
She was patient with us, understanding that we’ve been waiting so long and that we wanted it as memorable as possible!
We met up with her in Venice 3 months before the big day to go though all the details and met some of our vendors and did a comprehensive tasting at the Aman with the event coordinator there.
Every single detail was diligently discussed and followed up on. She was patient with us once again when we through a venue change into the mix to re-work the while day.
The PDF with every single detail was so easy to reference and I always knew what is outstanding and what has been finalised. It made life so easy leading up to the wedding day!
Amber took her time to not only coordinate our travel, makeup and hair but also managed to get it organised for all our guests.
On the day of our wedding, we were so relaxed, every single detail was perfect and the timeline flowed as perfectly as the Prosecco. Both Mohit and myself felt so calm and so relaxed because we knew we could trust Amber with everything! This meant we had the most fantastic day and night and that we have so many perfect memories to hold onto for many years to come!
Our guests afterwards gave Amber and her team so many compliments and said that they just knew the day was planned with love and care. Five months later and all our guests still talk about how special it was!
One of my personal favourite moments of the evening was after the wedding, guests had gone home and we sat in the Library of the Aman mixing ourselves cocktails and just chatting! I’m looking forward to seeing Amber again in a few weeks, she’s not only a Fantastic wedding planner, she’s also a wonderful person! -

Miracle Worker!
Amber is a total miracle worker! She helped us plan our Venetian wedding from the US with as little stress and worry as possible. Amber handled all the communication of our wedding day vendors and helped us coordinate our perfect rehearsal dinner. Additionally, she handled all the documents and communication with the priest for our ceremony in a Catholic church. Our wedding day was more perfect than we could have ever imagined. We had no stress or decisions to make the day of as Amber and her team (Rachel) stepped in and handled every last minute detail. Amber and Rachel seamlessly coordinated all of our vendors on the day of and kept everyone on schedule. All of my guests commented how on the ball Amber was and how it was the most organized and detail oriented wedding they had ever been to. She even noticed one of my guests had itchy eyes and offered him eye drops! I could not imagine working with anyone else to make our wedding day dreams come true! Amber is a magician and I only wish we had another party to plan in Venice to work with her agin. We cannot recommend Amber enough to help plan your wedding and cannot thank her and her team enough! -

Fantastic From Start to Finish!
Amber is extremely professional, creative and talented. We began the process when the world was in lockdown, and we were perhaps not the easiest couple to deal with, as we were concerned about every step, potential back up and nit picked our contracts for protection. Amber was more that extremely patient with us, and her support alleviated all our fears. We traveled out to Venice as a family, a year before our wedding and Amber walked us through all our needs, and our wants. She works with the best in the business. We met our lovely florist; the joke was that I did not want any real flowers; well together they came up with beautiful florals arrangements made of stunning Murano glass. She also arranged for us to meet our Videographer and Photographer and was able to help us work through curating a non-traditional shooting day. Amber arranged a lovely afternoon of tasting for our reception, and worked with the Chef to create our unique menu. She arranged all this to take place over our first three days, conscious that we only had a week in Venice, after which we had 4 days to relax with family. During the planning process Amber listened patiently to us and we listened to her suggestions; It was a completely trusting relationship. Amber took the time to know us as a family that year. It was clear that she took our requests and magnified them. She pulled together a Luxury Wedding that was beyond anything we and our guests were expecting! We don’t have to go to our wedding photos or video, as Amber enabled to be relaxed and take in every moment of our big day. It was great to feel like guests at our own wedding and be relaxed be able to enjoy it with our family and friends. That was a great result, and if anything went wrong on that day we had absolutely no clue. We loved our Wedding and are forever grateful to Amber! -

The Perfect Elopement in Venice 2021
Amber was a wonderful wedding planner and made sure every aspect of our wedding day was incredibly special.
We had to cancel our original wedding date due to Covid and we were on hold for over a year. Amber kept us up to date on the local situation, rumours and rules. All in all, we were planning our wedding with Amber for almost 3 years and she was so patient with us!
During one of our conversations in early Summer 2021, we asked whether she thought we could get married in September 2021. She said that according to the rules at the time we could, but that it would be safer to postpone until Spring 2022, as many of her other clients had done.
This really showed us that she was putting us first. Although we highly appreciated her selfless advice, we decided to throw caution to the wind, and Amber very quickly arranged everything for September 2021.
As well as all the usual wedding planning, she handled all the civil paperwork and all the communication with the local church and priest, which would have been a huge challenge from abroad.
She is a true professional, has all the best contacts, is very well informed and has great taste and attention to detail. We would highly recommend Amber for your wedding in Venice.

Perfection.
To suggest that Amber (Angel Lion Weddings) is a miracle worker who can move mountains would be an understatement. She singlehandedly executed the most magical day of our lives, exceeding every one of our exceedingly high expectations. Our guests described the entire affair with a single word: perfection.
Everything from the photoshoot, the ceremony, the reception, and the catering (to name a few) were flawless in form. All were made possible by Amber’s dauntless dedication, a planner who truly excels in her craft. Without her, none of it would be possible. (And I can speak from experience given that I initially tried to proceed with planning our wedding in Venice without Amber’s assistance - A course of action that I can now say is certainly inadvisable! For any do-it-yourself-ers out there, save yourself the hassle and contact Amber instead!).
For foreigners, the process of getting married in Venice is a labyrinth, one which Amber is an expert at navigating. Despite several unexpected twists and turns, Amber made sure our wedding day was nothing short of magical. No feat nor challenge was too great for her to overcome. Despite their complexity, Amber also accommodated several highly unique/specific requests that we wished to incorporate in our wedding day. Without her, they would not have been possible. She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process and has a sharp eye for detail, ensuring that every one of the countless logistics required for our wedding were coordinated. And (on top of all of that professional excellence!) Amber is one of the kindest and most caring individuals we have ever had the great pleasure of working with.
A mere “five stars” could never convey the depth and breadth of Amber’s quality as a wedding planner. Both personally and professionally, we cannot recommend Amber more highly. Thank you for being the cornerstone that supported our perfect wedding day.

My now husband and I are both French Canadian and catholic. We wanted to get married in Venice and get a religious ceremony as well as the civil legal papers. Amber was not the first wedding planner we had talk to in Venice... After 2 wedding planners telling us that they weren’t able to book us the church we wanted (or any catholic ceremony at all...) we found her. She was able to get us a ceremony in the church we wanted and with a French speaking priest! Her whole organization from the legal and religious paperwork to the beautiful reception on an outdoor terrace by the water was meticulous and very well done. She made it very easy for us been abroad to pick everything from the music to the flowers. Everything met our expectations and beyond! She was very available thorough the organization process to hear all our requests and make them happen! We are very glad we had her for that very special day of our lives!
Thank you Amber! -

Kim P. Sent on 07/20/2019Exceptional design for your day
18 months in the making, taking 40 close friends and family to another country and expecting perfection seems a tall order.... Amber Rist Mollison made this dream come true. She managed planning with a sometimes indecisive and other times very specific couple. The Groom being just as directive as the Bride. She focussed on our hearts desires and made it happen. We had simply the best day. One which we would never have achieved without her detailed local knowledge, her passion and her eye for design. -

Hire amber if you want a magical wedding!
We had the most elegant, magical wedding thanks to Amber. She went ABOVE & BEYOND our expectations! She is very professional, organized, detail oriented and creative. From the first day of planning to coordinating the day of the wedding, Amber new exactly what I wanted, and made sure everything was perfectly set and done, on a timely manner. She's cordial and persistent. We really enjoyed everything about our wedding experience because of her. Wish we could get married every year! -

Venice Wedding - September 2018
I came across the Angel Lion Weddings website after spending hours on google. From the start, I was really impressed with the website – it was a lot better than most of the others I saw and I really liked the style of the weddings Amber had done in the past. We set up a meeting with Amber when she was in London and knew from the moment we met her we were going to get along well. Amber is so friendly, organised and creative and she has all the best contacts in Venice! After our initial meeting in London, we met a couple of times in Venice to view venues, do food tastings and meet the florist, but the rest of the planning was done over the phone and by email. I was really specific with what I wanted and nothing was too much to ask of Amber. She introduced us to the best florists and caterers in Venice, who all worked together to create our dream wedding. On the day we left everything to Amber and her team and didn't see anything until we turned up at the venue after our ceremony. We were blown away – everything looked a million times better than we ever could have imagined and I am very fussy, to say the least! Amber's attention to detail was second to none, the entire set up was perfect. The day ran so smoothly and that's all thanks to Amber. We will forever be grateful that we met Amber and used her to plan our magical wedding, we couldn't recommend her more! -

Hotel V. Sent on 11/15/2018The perfect wedding planner!
We can’t thank Amber at Angel Lion Wedding enough for all her hard work and for helping us planning the most magical weekend of our lives. Amber understood all our needs and she was so lovely and such a pleasure to work with and to be around. We had met with few other wedding planners but as soon as we met Amber we knew that she was the one for us. This was not an easy wedding to plan as we were having a three day celebration for 140 guests and almost all of them coming from abroad. We therefore traveled few times from Iceland to Venice to look at Venues with Amber and to go through all the wedding details. She showed us tons of places and helped us out with everything to the finest details. After few months of searching for the perfect wedding venue we found a hotel villa that was just a 20 minute drive from Venice but it was the perfect place as we wanted all our guests to stay at the same spot, we needed a swimming pool as it was 4 August (super warm in Venice) and we wanted a place that we could have all to ourselves as our dream was to have the wedding evening with a party until dawn. Amber was so kind and understanding even though it meant that she and all the staff would drive back and forth from Venice but she was so lovely and helpful and things just turned out perfectly. We still wanted to do something in Venice so she organized an Venezian Galeon for us and our guest for and absolutely incredible cocktail cruise on Friday evening in Venice
Amber booked everything for us, photographer, videographer, florist, hair and makeup, string quartet etc. and we were so happy with each and every one. She definitely understood us perfectly and that was so obvious when it came to decorations on our big day. We just showed her pictures of how our dream outcome would be and then trusted Amber and her staff to for all the details and everything was simply breathtaking. This is even something that was so incredible that we can’t put into words. We have therefore attached few pictures both from the ceremony, aperitive and dinner area.
So from A-Z we give Amber and all the staff at Angel Leon Weddings our absolute best recommendation. Thank you so much for everything Amber, we simply can’t wait to have a Spritz with you the next time we are in Venice 😊
Best,
Elísabet & Benedetto
