Still in shock that & ’s day has come and gone! After 18 months of planning, tastings, last minute KC trips, and Kimmy crushing the Bar exam (WOO!), it all came to life - FLAWLESSLY.

We’re beyond grateful to Kimmy for trusting us with her vision. It was the greatest honor to bring it to life! 💞

Throwing mounds of gratitude to these folks! -
& for the epic custom builds
for bringing in the perfect wood tables
for letting us test out some new service ideas
for keeping the creative flow strong and being the best gals to collab with
for the hopping on a new idea with no hesitation

We LOVE Wichita and are so proud to invest in local vendors who help make magic happen. You all made some dreams come true! ✨

More cocktail hour & dance floor magic with to come… but for now, we present - The dining room! 🤍

Giving ’s chandeliers the ✨spotlight✨ they deserve!

Kathy & Craig told us, “Surprise us,” and we did just that — bold canopy tables wrapped in greenery, stunning chandeliers from , and a reception layout that broke all the rules. Couches, high-tops, pub tables, and rounds created a space that felt relaxed, elegant, and completely timeless. 🤍

This design is definitely one for the books — clean, sophisticated, and everything we adore. ✨

A dream dinner… ✨

Still not over this dream of a dinner reception for Kaylea & Jack. Every detail—from the blooms to the yummy linen textures to the glow of the pink cloud—was intentionally crafted and thoughtfully curated. A beautiful collaboration between , the sweetest family, and a dream team of vendors. The biggest shout out to for capturing the designs with so much integrity!

Forever in love with this design.✨

A first dance to remember…✨

On 08.26.23, Peyton and Thomas spent their first moments as Mr. & Mrs. Pauly in the dreamy glow of rentals and lighting at the Hudson. This venue was the perfect canvas for a starry, candlelit evening! 🌟

It was such a treat to plan this day with such a sweet family and wondering team of vendors. 🤍

A huge thanks to for capturing the beautiful moment. 💫

Ambiance… ✨

What started as a mother-daughter collaboration has grown into a dynamic event design and planning team!

For those of you who are new around here — I’m April! I founded Ambiance Events 11 years ago, bringing my passion for creating unforgettable experiences to life. My journey started with a strong background in culinary arts, catering, and years of volunteer work that eventually led me to create what we now know as Ambiance! ✨

And then there’s Gabi — with a rich background in theater, performance, and creativity, she’s the perfect complement to our team. One day, she said, “hire me,” and I said… “Okay!” Now, here we are - Making some awesome stuff happen together! 🤍

Come play with us — We love to dream big and design one-of-a-kind, unforgettable events!

A dream reception… ✨🩷

Can’t believe it’s almost been two years since Kara & Andrew’s stunning July wedding at the Wichita Country Club!

We had the best time designing their dream reception and bringing their vision to life with the help of our talented vendors! Big thanks to for capturing every detail with such care & skill. Still swooning over how everything came together.

Also… Let’s hear it one more time for this DRESS! We will never recover.

Give us a second... We are busy reminiscing over Kendall + Jack's wedding reception last February! 🌊✨ After their dream intimate wedding in Cabo, they wanted to bring some of that Mexico spirit back to Wichita to celebrate with the rest of their loved ones! And if it isn't obvious, we had way to much fun designing this one.

Some highlights?
- A BYO tequila shot bar with every tequila or garnish you could dream of.
- A 360 DJ!
- Color, color, COLOR! 😍

Your wedding celebration doesn't have to fit a mold - We pride ourselves in crafting an experience to fit your wants, needs, and dreams!

That being said - thank you, Kendall + Jack for having us on board to design this special evening for you and your loved ones.

xoxo,
ambiance

Swipe to bring to life… ✨

We couldn’t leave 2024 behind without highlighting Kaylea + Jack’s Rose Tinted Reception we had the honor of designing this past November.

With a wonderful team of vendors, this space just exploded with warmth & luxury! made our “Apricot Cloud” dreams come true, adorned the space with beautifully curated buds, topped our tables off with their wonderful collection of gold flatware, and of course, expertly captured the details of the day so it can live on forever!

On top of our outstanding vendor team, we had the most lovely family/couple to work with! We want to thank Kaylea, Jack, and their families for allowing us to have an absolute ball coming up with new, crazy ideas to make their celebration feel special and personal!

We are pretty proud of this one.

xoxo,

Happy belated 5th Anniversary to Simone and Jake! It’s incredible to think that five years have already passed since we had the privilege of planning their stunning wedding.

We are so thankful to have been a small part of their unique love story. Witnessing their journey unfold has been a delight, and we hope their anniversary is filled with beautiful memories of their magical day at Mark Arts.

Our relationship with clients doesn’t end when the final event concludes. We love staying connected and celebrating their milestones, like anniversaries, babies, and special occasions! It’s these moments that remind us of how grateful we are to be in this industry.

Here’s to Simone and Jake and to many more years of love and happiness ahead of them. We just LOVE love, so please share with us in the comments how long you’ve been with your person!

Ambiance had a big week in early June.
We celebrated 10 years with our closest supporters. We couldn’t be where we are today without the solid partnerships and amazing people in our lives.
We celebrated with a hint of Paris and the famous “eat the cake” queen! Immersive experiences designed by throughout, incredible food and creative cocktails. And of course, kept the dance floor bumping all night.
Thank you to everyone, including our beautiful clients 💕 who have been on the journey with Ambiance.
We are forever grateful to you.🙏🏻💕
