Samantha Elizabeth Events

"Thanks to Samantha, my wedding planning process and wedding day couldn't have gone more perfectly. Samantha is extremely detail oriented and ensures that her brides and the brides family members feel prepared and informed in the weeks leading up to the wedding and on the wedding day. She had great connections with vendors who all had high regards about the way Samantha conducts her business and develops her relationships. Thank you so much Samantha! It was truly the best day of my life!"Lauren Dyer, Bride

"I have to say that I was a little bit skeptical about needing to have a wedding planner, but let me assure you that having Samantha there was a godsend! The week before my daughter's wedding my mother went into the hospital and was put on hospice care. I was torn between my devotion to my mother and feeling that I needed to be in Austin to make sure everything was ready for the wedding. Samantha let me know that she had it all under control and that I could be there for my mom and my dad without worrying about the wedding plans. I arrived in Austin 4 days before the wedding and she had everything lined out and ready to go. The day of the wedding was incredible! Samantha took care of every detail so that my husband and I could truly enjoy celebrating our beautiful daughter and our wonderful son-in-law on their most special day! We did not have to worry about a single thing--It was perfect! Throughout the wedding planning Samantha listened to my daughter's vision of what she wanted and then put us in contact with the vendors who could make her vision a reality. Having Samantha there on the day of the wedding was like having your favorite niece there only she was taking care of everything behind the scenes while making it look effortless, which for us it was! Oh, and as a testament to her commitment, Samantha was pregnant while all this was going on and had been put on temporary bed rest 2 days before the wedding. She never said a word to us until after it was all over. She is simply put, THE BEST!"Tonya Erwin, Mother of the Bride

"After planning multiple charity galas, I thought I knew how to put together a significant event and keep things under control. Because of this, and because my daughter already had her vision for her wedding, I realized that this assistance we needed would be closer to the time of the wedding, and would be more to help me be able to focus on the bride, instead of managing vendors. It was a real blessing when our country club recommended Samantha Elizabeth Events, and specifically, Samantha Rosenberg. Samantha’s demeanor and style reflect confidence and calm – two really important attributes as you face a wedding, and both are desirable emotions for all parties involved from bride and groom to the parents. From the moment we met Samantha, it was apparent she was a kindred spirit who shared our values and understood the wedding our daughter wanted to have. Her attention to detail was mind boggling as she created the schedule of the wedding weekend, the wedding day, the contract revisions with vendors, the interaction and follow-up with vendors, the recommendations when we needed additional items or services and the execution of the rehearsal, setup of church and country club. Every member of our family depended on her and we actually had to discuss who “got” Samantha at which point during the day’s events! I would highly recommend Samantha to anyone planning a wedding or planning any event that needs coordination of many details. Samantha is lovely and her life’s work of event planning uses her skills to perfection and is a gift to all of us who have been privileged to work with her. "Julie Stevenson, Mother of the Bride

"I was referred to Samantha by a friend who had been a wedding planner for years - and boy was she right! I called Samantha and knew after just a few minutes that this young woman would be the perfect planner for our event. I was concerned about which vendors to choose as we were new to the Austin area and that was never an issue because Samantha had such wonderful working relationships with so many fabulous vendors. She listened to our dreams, concerns, fears and wishes and handled them all with the upmost maturity and calmness. She was always available and willing to listen and did everything within her power to give us exactly the wedding we wanted. I count her as a dear friend now and can recommend her without hesitation!"Charlotte Perkins, Mother of the Bride

"We hired Samantha to help with our wedding in October 2016 based on recommendations from family friends in the industry. We had a short timeline of 5 months because we picked up a cancellation date at our favorite venue. Samantha helped us to get organized quickly and prioritize the tasks needed to put together an absolutely amazing wedding! Everything the day of was perfect. She kept everyone on schedule and all the vendors organized and made sure that all the detailed pieces I had purchased for the wedding ended up in the right place at the right time. On top of it all, she was 8 months pregnant at the wedding and had her baby the next day. (!!) We loved our wedding and so did our guests, thanks Samantha for a wonderful day that we will remember for the rest of our lives."Paige Brown, Bride

"I am a wedding vendor and I recently had the opportunity to work with Samantha on a spectacular event at Austin Country Club. Experienced coordinators can make or break an event and Samantha handled all 250 guests with ease. My clients were raving about how wonderful she was and I can see why. She was prompt and organized while remaining very easygoing. Nice job!!!"Ross Phillips, DJ

"We hired Samantha six months before my daughter's wedding. We loved her from the moment we met and knew we made the right decision. Her calm demeanor no matter the situation is an asset when planning a large wedding. She kept us on task and took all the worry away constantly saying 'Are you ok?' and 'I've got this.' Samantha is extremely organized with great resources and tools to plan your budget, create timelines, review vendor contracts, compile guest lists for invitations and RSVP's and communicate with each other. Whenever we told a vendor who our planner was the response most often was 'You got a good one!' The end result was a beautiful wedding that, as a Mother of the Bride, I felt like a guest. She handled any issue and kept everyone on schedule. I would highly recommend working with Samantha! I just wish I had another wedding to plan with her!"Cindy Richter, Mother of the Bride

"Samantha was with us from the beginning of the planning process through our wedding day. We were planning our wedding in Austin from out of town and she did an amazing job of managing our vendors and keeping us on track as we planned. Our wedding day was easy and smooth thanks to her attention to detail and hard work behind the scenes - everyone knew where to be and when (wedding party and vendors) which made the weekend that much more enjoyable knowing everyone had the detailed timeline. A true professional and I would recommend her to anyone!"Sarah Heckmann, Bride

"I was referred to Samantha by a friend, so I set a meeting and within two minutes of talking to her, I knew she was my planner. I had originally hired her for day of services but quickly figured out that I could not do ANY of this without her. I immediately asked her to be my full time planner. That was the best decision I have ever made. She was so supportive, helpful, and honest at all the right moments. I felt completely comfortable saying "you make this decision" and I knew that whatever it was, would end up being perfect in her very capable hands. When what I thought was the worst possible thing that could happen, actually happened, and my venue booked another wedding for the same day in one of the rooms we had booked, she jumped in and handled everything for me. She rearranged everything and dealt with me being an absolute bridezilla about it like it was no big deal. I could not have done any of this without her and I just hope that every bride out there has someone like her (or her if they are smart) to get them through their big day. She is absolutely amazing and I am so happy that I can now call her my friend!"Ellen Mayberry, Bride

"I was in a panic when my original wedding planner wasn't working out and hired Samantha who immediately calmed my nerves by taking charge and working out a schedule, dealing with vendors, etc. I was the most carefree bride on my wedding day knowing that Samantha was running things behind the scenes - everything was perfect! She's a delight to work with and I would highly recommend her to any bride-to-be."Laura Bensick, Bride
