    Highly recommend Amanda and her company

    Amanda Brown is AMAZING. I had large party for a milestone birthday at a venue in Austin. I invited 125 people, and had it catered, and I selected Amanda and Bluebonnet Events to be my event coordinator. I am so glad I did. She is very experienced, and helped me tremendously in planning cost effective and lovely decorations (my request). She supplied anything I needed and didn’t want to purchase (like cocktail table linens, greenery, even the best cups to use for the bartenders), which was so easy! She also has experience with bartending and alcohol, wine, mixers etc and told me just what to order - made it so easy. She was responsive to every text and every question. She created a timeline and coordinated with all the vendors. She was on-time to the event and so friendly and down to earth - my guests loved her as well. I also liked that when she would ask me a question, if I seemed like I couldn't make a decision - she could tell and would say "Ok, I'm going xxxxx - does that sound ok?" and I was so grateful. She is not timid, but also not aggressive in anyway. She is the perfect personality you want for a successful and stressful event. Loved her and highly recommend her company.

    Proactively made our day amazing!

    Wow! I am so grateful to have worked with Bluebonnet Events. Planning and organizing is a passion of mine, but Amanda and her team proactively addressed concerns that I would never have thought of. Our day was seamless, and I know that this was only because Amanda helped ensure everything was on track throughout the ceremony and reception.

    Wonderful wedding coordination

    Bluebonnet events did such an amazing job, from helping us with our timeline, to also providing linen & charger rentals. On my wedding day I had absolutely no worries. Everything was set up exactly how I envisioned and couldn't be happier with the service. Do yourself a favor and don't try to get by without a coordinator, having them took so much stress off and I was able to fully enjoy the day. I highly recommend Bluebonnet events!

    The coordinator you didn't know you needed!!

    My husband and I were doing a 10 year vow renewal. The original place we decided on required a day of coordinator. That's how we found Amanda at Bluebonnet Events. She was easy to talk to and easy to trust. As our special day approached we realized that, even with the small package that we chose, the venue was still going to be over our already tight budget. We asked Amanda to think WAY out side the box for the 30 people or less guest list. I love the way her brain works. She reached out and had a meeting with the Hard Rock Cafe. This was the perfect place for our red carpet themed wedding do-over. Amanda helped me keep in contact with Hard Rock when I had questions and needed clarification on stuff. Being able to get in touch with Amanda whenever I needed really put my mind at ease. There were a few times when I hit panic mode and Amanda was there to reassure me and take care of whatever the issue was right away. Not only was she there for the rehearsal, she came to the walk-through the week prior. I can't sing her praises enough. Amanda made it really easy to enjoy the wedding day with my family and be care free. I made the flower arrangements and some of the table décor but rented the rest of the themed décor from her. It turned out so much better than I imagined. The hair and makeup ladies that Amanda recommended also did an amazing job. Amanda got to Hard Rock at noon to set up. The ceremony started a little after 2:30 and people left between 6;00 and 7:00. The wedding went smoothly. Everyone had a great time. It couldn't have been a more perfect day. I would absolutely recommend Amanda at Bluebonnet Events for your special day.

    An amazing experience that helped make my wedding day perfect

    i cannot thank bluebonnet event enough for all they did for my wedding. They helped with coordination, wedding center pieces, wedding set-up, and last minute catering help that i needed! Bluebonnet was there for all my questions during the wedding process, my day would of been completely different without them, and she made my vision of my center pieces and decor just pop the day of. Bluebonnet made it so easy to work with them, always responded to help me, and the overall price and quality was amazing. Definitely recommend, i have been recommending them to all my friends who have been planning their weddings!

    Trust me, you need a wedding planner, and Amanda's the best.

    To preface, I'm a very organized, methodical person and have experience planning and dealing vendors, etc. I went into planning my wedding feeling confident that I could handle it on my own. However, my sister was adamant about getting a wedding planner, so eventually I caved. I am so thankful I did. I could not have done it on my own - even with my whole family helping. IF YOU'RE ON THE FENCE ABOUT GETTING A WEDDING PLANNER PLEASE DO. It makes all the difference. Amanda was able to provide us with a comprehensive list of phenomenal vendors (all of whom we were happy with) and rolled with it when my husband and I's vision for the wedding changed more than once. Amanda made everything flow smoothly. When it comes to planning a wedding, there are a lot of small details that are easy to overlook (ice, extension cords, etc.) - Amanda knows what needs to happen and takes care of it. Life throws curve balls, and there's always something that goes wrong on the wedding day. For us, there was a major wind storm that damaged the reception tent. We got married in mid-December, so without the tent, guests would be standing in the freezing rain all night. Had I planned it myself, that's what would have happened. However, because of Bluebonnet Events, by the reception, the tent was not only as good as new, but decorated and heated. The best thing I can say about Bluebonnet Events, however, is that they made our vision come to life. Looking back our wedding was exactly as we'd hoped. Amanda and her team worked to make our wedding ours - even though it wasn't a conventional wedding. They listened to what we described and help turned our idea into a reality.

    Made the day easy

    Knowing we had Bluebonnet Events on the day of the wedding was a huge relief! Amanda made it every easy to reach out to her and answered any questions I had along the way. The week before/the day of the wedding I explained what I wanted the entire venue to look like and Amanda and Gracie did just that for us. From providing the linens, setting things up, to the clean up at the end. They made the day so easy for us and everything (as far as I knew) went smooth and was simple. All we was just enjoy the day.

    Absolute must have for our wedding day

    Aside from my wedding dress and our rings, this was the most have purchase of our wedding. Gracie worked wonders for us leading up to the wedding and of course on the big day itself. She was in control of things but not bossy towards anyone. She handled family with kindness (even the difficult personality family members) and worked with my vendors to ensure I had nothing to worry about other than enjoying myself. There were several times that I did not see her on our wedding morning because she was off smoothing out situations I will never have to know about and I greatly appreciate that. She also checked in with us multiple times to ensure we were enjoying the day and had everything we needed. Working with Bluebonnet Events will help you get the blissful wedding day you are looking for. I highly recommend them!

    Absolutely amazing! 💕

    Amanda was nothing but amazing! From the communication throughout the planning process, down to most tiny details on our wedding day.. she has been an absolute pleasure to work with. Carlos and I had no idea on where to start when we got engaged but with the help of Bluebonnet Events, our special night was absolutely perfect! Our wedding planning was a breeze as Amanda and her crew offer so many services including coordination, centerpiece rentals, floral and service team. After our first time discussing our ideas with Amanda there was no hesitation on whether or not we would go through her company for these services and we are so happy that we did. Everything turned out better than we could have imagined. Not only did she take care of business the day of our wedding, throughout the night she was constantly checking on us to make sure that we had the best experience possible. Amanda is a genuine person who cares about her customers and it shows. She is awesome and would recommend her to anyone and everyone!

    Absolutely amazing!

    Words will never express how thankful and grateful we are to have had Amanda be our coordinator. Going into the wedding planning we honestly had no idea where to even begin but after only our first meeting with Amanda she assured us that she would take care of us and that’s when we instantly decided that we would be using her as our coordinator. From beginning to end Amanda was always instantly available. Any questions we had she would get back to us immediately and helped us alleviate so much stress that comes with wedding planning. Not only did she coordinate our wedding but her company Blue Bonnet events also supplied our centerpieces and floral at a ver affordable price. We were able to stay within our budget thanks to the affordability of blue bonnet events. On our wedding day we actually were able to enjoy our wedding and had the best night ever because Amanda and her crew handled our big day with ease. Amanda thank you so much for making our big day so special and enjoyable, we received nothing but great compliments from our guests!! My wife and I would 100% recommend blue bonnet events to anyone and everyone.

    Great experience!

    Amanda and BlueBonnets were one of the best decisions in vendors I could have made for my big day! Amanda was incredibly helpful in the pre-planning stages; even in areas in which she didn't have to be. I went to her with questions on the actual venue when the venue coordinator was out of town--and she was nothing but helpful! It was important to me to have waitstaff & bartenders who had been at the venue before, as in my experience that tends to lessen the chance for last minute problems--and they definitely delivered! The linens were delivered on time and set up in what seemed like record time (they estimated to be done by 2 or 3pm; and they were almost completed by the time I arrived at the venue at 1:30) Dinner was served in a timely manner (buffet style); and the cleanup crew did a great job of cleaning everything up quickly and unnoticeably.

    While I didn't get the chance to meet the bartenders, all of my guests had nothing but great things to say about their friendliness and service, and I am so glad we went with them!

    In addition, an important family piece was accidentally packed away with the other dishes. When we realized it was missing, Amanda took time out of her vacation to contact the staff that night; and people who could look and located the missing cake slicers! She offered to drop them in the mail, at no cost to me (though I opted to pick up). Working with Blue Bonnets was a very pleasant experience and I would recommend them to any of my friends looking for: linen/dinnerware rental; food servers/cleanup and bartenders.

    Affordable Chargers!

    I had a little bit of extra money in my budget and really wanted to do a charger to tie everything in at our place settings. Luckily my wedding coordinator knew of Amanda's company! We rented chargers at 50 cents a piece, which is a steal! Limited selection, but it was perfect for us and any budget bride!!!

    I was clueless about weddings, Amanda was a LIFESAVER.

    I found Amanda just by googling wedding planners and was shopping around for price ranges and what services were offered. After talking to a handful of planners (many were very well known) It was the conversation on the phone, the tone in her voice and her genuineness I could hear and feel that told me I had found the perfect person for the job. July/August 2018 i asked if she could send me a few venue options based off of my budget and vision. She not only found the locations, she set up tours for me and included a very professional excel sheet comparing all of the venues and what the total wedding cost could come out to based off of what the venues offered. It was so detailed and me not knowing ANYTHING about weddings (barely knew what a bridal shower was) she gave me the best head start. Throughout the next couple of months, we discussed details about the wedding, she answered random questions I’d send her way and she never judged me for not knowing something as simple as a getaway car lol. Come 30 days prior to the wedding, it was crunch time. She sent me and all my vendors a copy of the timeline for revision and I think she’s a mind reader because everything I wanted, she already knew about and somehow got it into the timeline. Any changes I wanted to make to the timeline was fixed by her before I could blink and all the vendors knew before I remembered to even ask if they all knew of the change. Come rehearsal day, I had some people not show up that I needed there. She’s not only there for you to help plan a wedding but she put me at ease and reassured me that things would turn out ok & did she deliver!!!!! Day of, everything went AMAZINGLY. She let me sleep in while she took care of everything to include her amazing assistant Gracie. My goal was to make sure my husband and I got to ride the zip line in my dress and his dress blues. She made sure I wore joggers so my dress wouldn’t get ruined. Small details like having a pair of socks I didn’t have, she had for me. Also she’s so AWESOME, she rode the zip line herself. She helped me change out of my complicated dress and into my 2nd dress for the reception. By the end of the night, she had our food containers ready to go, our bags ready to go, and I was NOT ready to let her go anywhere. It was so strange that all these months went by and I felt like I had made a close friend. Amanda and her assistant Gracie will go above and beyond for you. Yeah you pay for their services but she truly loves her job and enjoys what she does and will invest into her couples more so than any other planning company I’ve ever heard of.

    Couldn't have done it without her!

    Amanda and her team are incredible! She helped to create the vision we had always dreamed of in our wedding day. Fearless and responsive, she never backed down from any problem, question, or concern I sent her way. Not only did she coordinate the chaos of the day, her team also provided impeccable floral arrangements, amazing bartending services, fantastic centerpieces, and so much more, including what will now be a lifelong friendship! I HIGHLY recommend Amanda and all of Bluebonnet's services to everyone! THANK YOU AMANDA!

    Amanda knows weddings!

    From our first phone call to the end of our reception, Amanda Brown took care of every detail. She was proactive every step of the process and on the day of— she really shined, taking care of every detail before I could even consider her. Aside from coordinating the day-of, she also took care of our rentals and set up. We couldn’t have pulled off this event without her expertise. Do yourself a favor and book Amanda and her team!!!

    High Class Service - Knows her stuff and worth every penny!

    Don’t know where to begin with on how amazing Amanda and her team are. She cares about the interests of the bride first and foremost and delivers top class service. Great resource for referrals; she strives to improve the quality of life of the bride. She decorated and took down decorations for the bride. Hands down will talk to any bride on the fence about getting a day of coordinator. Amanda is worth every penny (and more!) Thank you Amanda for making my day more than special, but perfect.

    Our experience with Bluebonnet Events was AMAZING! Working with Amanda was definitely the best decision we could have made for our wedding. She was always on point when it came to her services. The professionalism her and her staff held was very satisfying. Our guest were all impressed and loved the setup and the way they were treated. We always had no problem getting in touch with Amanda. She is always understanding and asking question to ensure our vision, which we definitely loved! And anytime we wanted to change something, because we did have an outside wedding, so many things did change almost last minute, Amanda did not even sweat, and we were very impressed! We definitely received more than what we paid for, but the execution was so flawless, a price point wouldn't have mattered. Our big day was more than what we could have imagined, and along the way, we didn't only have a great experience, but we also sparked a great new friendship; Amanda is the sweetest person, warm heart, and great to work with! One thing we do regret, is that we did not have her as our wedding coordinator; and I'm sure if we did have her as a coordinator, more stress would have been taken off of us, but even at that, Amanda still worked wonders and had us happy from day 1! Thank you so much for everything Amanda!
