Austin Wedding Planners

As an owner of Austin restaurants for many years, I can honestly say that there is no other company and no other person I would feel comfortable recommending to brides and families than Rosa Gibson and her company Austin Wedding Planners. I have recommended this company a multitude of times and each time been thanked profusely…. So much so, I decided I needed to write a review.

Rosa knows how to please and create memories and she knows how to do it seemingly effortlessly; although I know she is a meticulous behind-the-scenes planner.

I’ve recommended Austin Wedding Planners for both high-end and simple affairs, and every time they impress and wow. I have seen firsthand how Ms. Gibson's attention to detail and great taste allows for a flawless experience.

Thank you, Rosa, for always making me look good and for creating so many exquisite events around Austin and Texas. You are a true treasure.

If you’re looking for a company you can trust so you can relax and enjoy, look no further!

Rosa and her team were amazing! From beginning to end they kept us moving forward, informed, she listened while also directing folks firmly. Her connections in the market and experience made the difference in our special day. We would choose her again as our planner over again if we could! Love AWP!

Choosing Austin Wedding Planners was the single best choice we made in planning our wedding! We were planning everything from 1,500 miles away, and Rosa put our minds at ease and worked tirelessly with us throughout our engagement to ensure every “i” was dotted and that we had a gorgeous, crazy fun wedding day. We had as many phone calls, video calls, and emails as I needed, and I felt throughout that Rosa genuinely loved what she was doing, was rooting for us, and always had our best interests at heart. In all decisions she considered our budget and logistics; building that trust throughout our work together was critical. The day of was PERFECT - seamless! I was able to simply show up and enjoy getting married, knowing that Rosa and her team would handle every detail. They are amazing problem solvers and anticipate things before they occur. Rosa provided me with extensive advice, recommendations, communicated with my vendors, created and executed the timeline, and made my guests feel right at home. She went above and beyond at every step. Whether you live in Austin or are planning to get married there from across the country like we did, I wholeheartedly recommend investing in Rosa and her team at Austin Wedding Planners!

I cannot say enough good things about Rosa and her team. Rosa was amazing to work with, and the day of the wedding went so smoothly because of her excellent management. I felt, even though I technically only had her as my day-of coordinator, that she was so much more and helped me book some of the vendors that we had as well as getting a small discount with them.

She checked in regularly and was consistently keeping me updated on things as we got closer to the day. Our rehearsal went smoothly, was quick and efficient. We didn't need to worry about anything the day of the wedding or afterwards. She isn't just good at her job, but she's so kind and supportive. I really appreciate everything Rosa did, and I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone planning their wedding.

Rosa was wonderful to work with. Very professional and she really knows this business inside and out. She is organized and detail orientated. Our wedding went off without a hitch and we have her to thank for that!
She is very connected in the industry and introduced us to many of our vendors, all of which we loved! She was much more than just a wedding planner, she was something we could talk things through with at any time we needed. By the time of the wedding we considered her more than our planner, but a dear friend.

We had a terrible experience with AWP. Rosa claimed to have a good relationship with our chosen wedding venue, who only work with an approved list of wedding planners, only to learn from them that she was NOT on their approved list due to having almost ruined several weddings and ruined relationships with vendors. We switched to a new planner recommended by the wedding venue, but if not for that, our wedding would likely have been ruined.

We cannot say enough about how much we loved working with Rosa Gibson. As a very busy working professional living in a different state, Rosa was a life-saver for my Austin wedding. She tailored her wedding packages to our specific needs instead of nickel and diming for every charge, knew the perfect vendors to book for our wedding, and got us a ton of vendor discounts. She was extremely organized, very thorough in her planning, and when any small thing popped up she took care of it immediately and effectively. Picking Rosa was the best choice I made when planning my wedding, because she helped me make all the other choices to make our wedding awesome!

I came to Rosa about 5 weeks out from my wedding and she was able to step in and help me tie up all the loose ends. Her and her team were so extremely helpful on the day of! Everything ran so smooth and she was even in touch with me the weeks following to make sure that everything was good after the dust settled. Highly recommend Austin Wedding Planners for your event as the were warm, friendly, on top of everything, and a huge lifesaver!

If an option for 6/5 stars was available, we would certainly give it!

As I learned, before - and especially during - your wedding, you need an experienced, decisive, well-connected, communicative planner. Rosa is all of those things.

Some highlights of our experience:

-Intimate knowledge of Austin-area venues, caterers, DJs, bakers, florists, and more (stuff I can't remember - why we needed Rosa) : all of the recommendations were excellent
-A meeting with my wife's mom before the wedding to walk her through the venue
-An initial consultation at her house where she listened and asked the important questions
-Detailed day-of logistics / choreography run-through before the wedding
-Meetings with multiple caterers
- (Maybe most important) Day of decisiveness meaning we did not have to make decisions, worry, or miss important time with family (for example, we ran out of booze, and she made it quickly reappear)

I highly recommend Austin Wedding Planners. Thank you, Rosa (& Richard)!

All I can say is WOW.

Our wedding day was perfect based on our experience and our guest's feedback. If anything went wrong, we never knew about it. From start to finish, the execution and coordination were top-notch. Our families and wedding party also loved Rosa. She had every detail on lock, and given she's been doing weddings for over a decade, she's worked with almost every vendor in Austin and has excellent relationships with all of them.

She was a fantastic partner to work with and became like part of our family and also a friend!

Many people at the wedding commented, could y'all just get married every month?

I couldn't recommend them enough!

Hire her! I cannot say enough great things about Rosa and her team. I was probably the very annoying type of bride in that I didn't have strong opinions, procrastinated, and waffled over every decision. Rosa was so patient, communicative, positive, and overall just made my wedding day an absolute dream! Her attention to detail is so incredible, especially for someone like me! By the end of the process, I felt more like Rosa was a dear old friend rather than my wedding planner. I will miss not talking to her almost every day! Seriously, hire her. Love you, Rosa!

Who you choose to help plan your wedding can really make or break your experience, and thanks to Rosa and her team at Austin Wedding Planners we were able to make our dream wedding happen! From the get go Rosa was incredibly invested in us as a couple and wanted to not only help us plan a wonderful wedding but also make an honest connection so that the planning process was as fun and painless as possible. We got extra help from her on choosing our vendors and details for our caterer and florist; we can’t imagine going through those processes without her. Rosa helped us go into our wedding month and week with the confidence that everything would go smoothly and it did!

On the day, our wedding was coordinated by Richard (her husband and great business partner to her) and Deidre from her team with regular check-ins from Rosa. They all did such a fantastic job. We didn’t have to lift a finger (and even when I instinctually tried to, Deidre very kindly and gently reminded me that I should relax and enjoy it all). Being able to soak in your wedding day without a worry is priceless, and they helped us achieve that.

We simply could not have planned such a beautiful wedding without Rosa. Her husband, Richard, and Deidre from her team did such a wonderful time coordinating our wedding on the day as well. It’s not just us who loved the day, all our family and friends can talk about is how well everything came together and what a blast they had! We cannot recommend Austin Wedding Planners enough. If you book with Rosa, she will ensure that you have a wonderful wedding reflective of who you are and what matters to you! <3
