About Avé
Native to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, She began planning events for fun with family and close friends over 9 years ago, and still love the endings that come with planning the happiest day of a person’s life from beginning to end. Seeing others happy, watching their eyes glow when they see their vision alive in their dream location even though they didn’t have to lift a single finger. That look is priceless, and that is what impassioned and ignited her to pursue wedding and event planning classes and start her own business.
Avé (pronounced Ahh Vay) Wedding & Event Planning LLC, was established in April 2016 by wedding planner Christian Legard. She recently changed the name in June 2020 to Christian Avé Events. In the spirit of excellence and with a heart to serve others with this talent that has come so naturally to me. Certified and licensed in the states of Louisiana and Texas, I plan a variety of events and host parties of all styles. My mission through Avè is to provide legendary service and ensure that your wedding day is a reflection and celebration of you!
Combining my flair for giving, certifications, creativity, multitasking, and working excellently under strict deadlines, I believe I have the brilliant ability to help you see your dreams come true, while gracefully guiding you through all the steps of making your celebration a beautiful expression of your unique relationship.

"It is my pleasure to recommend Christian Williams, Event-planner Extraordinaire. Christian is an innovator in the event-planning industry. She uses her creative mind to think of unique concepts to attract people to her events. I am grateful to have her in my network. I partner with her company, Avé Wedding and Event Planning, on client projects that require event-planning. She immediately takes on the task with confidence and determination. I appreciate her knowledge of the industry and her willingness to share that knowledge to achieve the client’s objectives. Christian is a supportive team-player who would be an asset to any organization or individual. Most importantly, I admire her inner spirit that embraces all people. She is humble with a heart larger than life, with energy that uplifts, and a larger-than-life personality that motivates. Christian Williams’ strong desire and willingness to connect people will take her far in life. With that said, I highly recommend Avé Wedding and Event planning for all your events. She does everything from weddings and corporate events to fundraising for nonprofits and parties for toddlers. I’m most excited about her annual fashion show, LA Belles and Beaus, that she created to raise money for charity. Christian, you are a gem! Thanks for all you do for the betterment of business and community. "
