From the coast to the table.⁠ ⁠ Fresh seafood, layered textures, and a menu designed to capture the effortless charm of a seaside gathering. Every detail thoughtfully curated, every bite worth remembering.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ Planning & Catering @afehouston @mrskchapman @carleyrpesl⁠ Photography @brandy_stoesz_photography⁠ Linens @bbjlatavola @nuagedesignsinc⁠ Decor @revelrygoods @drapestageevents @dlgicefactory @htx_eventrentals @provisioneventstexas⁠ Rentals @swiftevents @aztecusa⁠ Lighting & AV @brightstarproductions⁠ Entertainment @janddentertain

The heart of AFE has always been its people.⁠ ⁠ During our employee celebration, we asked our CEO & owner, Rachael Volz, a few questions about the team, the values that guide us, and what continues to inspire the work we do every day.

A wedding should never feel like a template, it should feel entirely like you.⁠ ⁠ Here at AFE, we understand the importance of personalizing every detail, from the overall design to the smallest moments, ensuring the day reflects your unique story.⁠ ⁠ Because when an event truly captures who you are, it becomes an experience you will remember forever.⁠ ⁠ ⁠photography @sarahkatephoto⁠ planning @keely.thorne.events⁠ decor & floral @eventsinbloomhouston⁠ catering @afehouston⁠ av & lighting @360avdesign⁠ cakes @simonleebakery

Food is so much more than just a menu, it is the heartbeat of a celebration.⁠ ⁠ It’s what brings people together, sparks conversations and sets the tone for the entire night.⁠ ⁠ We handle the details of the evening so you can focus on what matters most, being entirely present in the moment.⁠ ⁠ photography: @brandy_stoesz_photography planning & catering: @afehouston @carolynmbowen @natcollinss floral: @arteandesign

Behind every unforgettable event is an extraordinary team. ⁠ ⁠ Last week, we gathered to celebrate the people who make AFE what it is, recognizing milestones, accomplishments, and the dedication that shapes every experience we create.⁠ ⁠ Here’s to the team behind it all.

From beautifully presented cuisine to the details that bring the experience together, every element is created to feel as memorable as the occasion it honored.⁠ ⁠ Because great hospitality is something guests remember long after the last toast.⁠ ⁠ Photography: @brandisimonephotography ⁠ Tent: @aztecusa ⁠ Catering: @afehouston ⁠ Floral + Decor: @rldesignhtx ⁠ Lighting: @360avdesign ⁠ Dance Floor: @mikesdancefloorrentals ⁠ Entertainment: @gulfcoastentertainment ⁠ Paper: @houstoninvitationservice ⁠ Vinyl: @2botcreations ⁠ Comfort Stations: @luxuryeventtrailers ⁠ Fireworks: Sky Wonder Pyro ⁠ Transportation: @samslimousine ⁠ Planning: @belleevents @kelley_belleevents⁠
