Elegant Design Rooted in Timeless Elegance: AVP’s Signature Planning Approach
June 2
When it comes to planning weddings in Houston and beyond, it’s more than creating a beautiful event—it’s about telling a story. At Ashley’s Visions & Productions that story starts with something refreshingly simple: a heartfelt conversation.
“We love getting to know you, your story, and what you’re dreaming up.” says Ashley, the creative force and founder behind AVP. Whether it’s over coffee, wine, or a casual consult call, the first step to working with her team is about connection. That genuine desire to connect is what sets AVP Events apart—and it’s woven into every detail they design.

Beyond Aesthetics: Designing from the Heart
Ashley doesn’t just want your Pinterest board—she wants your personality, your family dynamic, your traditions, and quirks. “It’s more than gathering inspo photos” Ashley said, “We want to understand the little details that make your relationship special.” That deep understanding is how each wedding becomes an extension of the couple’s story.
The result are events that feel deeply personal and visually stunning. “Our design style is elevated, intentional, and rooted in timeless elegance,” Ashley explains.The cornerstones of AVP’s Aesthetic?
- Clean lines and graceful, floor-length linens
- Dynamic layouts with layered color palettes and varying dimensions
- Statement focal points and centerpieces that are refined—not trendy
- Personalized touches that reflect your story
- Balanced, uncluttered compositions that photograph beautifully
But what really defines her work are the subtle, personalized touches for intentional wedding design. “Our events are never cookie-cutter because your story isn’t either.”

The AVP Experience: More Than Planning
For Ashley it’s all about building relationships. “We’ve had brides who become friends, who grab wine with us after the wedding, and even some who end up working alongside us.” That closeness allows the AVP team to truly invest in every couple’s journey, celebrating alongside them like family.
And even when a couple isn’t sure what they want, AVP knows how to bring clarity. “We start by asking the right questions – how they want the day to feel, not just how it should look,” Ashley says. From attire to cuisine to cultural influences, every detail is used to shape a cohesive and meaningful design.

Honoring Culture and Creating Fusion
One of AVP’s most powerful strengths lies in their ability to blend tradition with modern elegance. “We specialize in cultural and fusion weddings, so honoring tradition is not only part of the process, it’s something we genuinely celebrate.” Whether it’s incorporating heritage rituals or creating unique ceremonies that reflect both partners’ backgrounds, AVP approaches every event with deep respect and creativity.

Constant Inspiration, Ever-Evolving Style
So where does all this creative vision come from? For Ashley, inspiration is everywhere. “Design and fashion fuel me,” she says, citing everything from the Met Gala to interior design magazines. But at the core of every concept is the couple themselves. “Their story, personalities, and traditions are where the magic begins.”
A Wedding Planner Who Feels Like Family
Working with AVP Events means more than hiring a planner—it means gaining a passionate advocate, a talented designer, and often, a lifelong friend. As a Houston-based wedding planning company, Ashley and her team create more than just weddings, they create experiences filled with heart, intention, and unforgettable beauty.
If you’re dreaming of a wedding that feels like you—elevated, elegant, and deeply personal—Ashley’s Visions & Productions might just be your perfect match.
