d someone (who was not in attendance) and the first thing they said was "I HEARD YOU HAD BEER DONKEYS!" Yup, thats the type of excellence you can expect from this company. The burros themselves were beautiful, clean, and well mannered. Absolutely recommend!

talking about them the entire night and people still ask us about them today. The mini horses were so cute and well behaved and the entire team of handlers and people behind the scenes at the company are incredibly kind and professional. We loved working with them so much that we even picked a photo of us with the mini horses for our Thank You cards after the wedding <3 Thank you Ears with Beers!
Carrie and Spirit were a HUGE hit! Our guests couldn't stop talking about them! It was such a fun addition to add to our cocktail hour. 10/10 recommend Ears with Beers!

la and Ronda, their human handlers, were amazing to work with as they allowed guest to take photos with Carrie and Spirit and did a wonderful job serving everyone.

We love the pictures of us with them a...
nd the pics we saw from our friends of them posing with the little guys!
Guests loved them and it was so fun and cute for them. Huge conversation topic during our Sunday brunch!
Paula and Delaney were very sweet and thoughtful - they brought the donkeys to us when we were taking pictures with our photographer at the perfect time and were just a delight!
Small example of the thougtfulness and professionalism of this team - these donkeys were squeaky clean!! I'm a horse owner, so I know when you pet a horse or donkey you usually end up with pretty dirty hands - not a good feeling while at an event. I was shocked how clean they were and it definitely was a lovely surprise to know that my guests had clean hands while all dressed up :) May seem silly but it was really nice of the Paula & Delaney to make sure they were super clean.
Also these donkeys are so sweet. You'll want to take them home with you!
Response from the Vendor on 09/26/2021
Thank you Carissa for all your kind words and for noticing our little donkeys were squeaky clean. We love it when people take notice of their clean, soft and shiny coats. As fellow "horse people" with a background in showing and competing, it's...
important that our little donkeys and horses are bathed and well-groomed for each event. It was so fun to help celebrate your day, Carrie & Spirit loved the attention!
Carrie and Spirit were an absolutely delightful addition to our rehearsal dinner festivities. The girls were a huge hit with all of our guests.... As one person put it, "They were even cuter than promised!!" Paula and her team were friendly, pr...
ofessional, and full of fun donkey facts. Having them there was one of the highlights of the evening, and our guests were pleased to leave with snuggles and selfies galore!
WHY CANT I GIVE MORE STARS?! 11/10. These wonderful people and animals were the STARS of our wedding. Seriously, make room in your budget for them. They are perfection. A small business, Christian, female owned - can’t get better than that. Del...
aney and Paula were the sweetest and their burros - Carrie & Spirit emulated that too. I almost cried taking a few minutes with them because they were so cute and wonderful. They made time for the guests to take pictures and then specifically set time aside for us, the couple, to spend time with them away from the chaos of cocktail hour. Our guests LOVED them and it was a very Hill Country/Texas addition, which added a unique twist since most of our guests were from out of town. I could go on as to how amazing these women and burros are! All to say is, whatever you do, you need to hire Ears With Beers.
Response from the Vendor on 09/26/2021
Thank you, thank you, we are so humbled by your review. It was so fun to bring our little burros to share in your special day and to meet so many kind people. It's a dream job, our donkeys love it and so do we!
If you are wondering whether to add beer burros to your wedding reception, just do it! They were the icing on the cake of a perfect day!!!! We surprised our guests with the burros, and everyone loved them. We had many comments about how much...
fun it was to have them, the children adored them, and the adults enjoyed having them there. Paula and her friend interacted with guests and answered questions, but the burros were the big hit (besides the bride and the groom). We loved having them, and we think you will, too!!
Due to COVID I had to wait two years to finally meet these cuties, and it was totally worth it! My husband literally had to drag me away from them after the ceremony so we could do family photos. They were the bells of the ball, every one of ou...

d some fun and unexpected entertainment for our guests. Not only were they loved by all but they helped ensure there was never a line during cocktail hour. I talked with Paula during the booking and scheduling process - she could not be easier to work with!! We are so happy we got to share our special day with Ears with Beers! 10/10 would hire Ears with Beers again and again!
My husbands two contingencies for our wedding were beer donkeys and a queso fountain - and let me tell you... BEST DECISION ever. We loved working withe Ears with Beers and their donkeys were so cute and all of our guests raved about them too.
We heard about having beer donkeys while touring our venue and loved the idea so much, we knew we HAD to have them at our wedding. I researched and found Ears with Beers to be very reasonably priced. Paula is a joy to work with and is extremely...
responsive. Given the current condition we're in with the global pandemic, my husband and I were so grateful that she was still willing to help make our day memorable with her 2 donkeys, Carrie and Spirit. They were a surprise for our guests and what a surprise it was! Our guests LOVED the donkeys and taking photos with them. Our thirsty crowd loved getting drinks from these 2 the most and it really helps entertain your crowd during a cocktail hour and something really special to look back on at photos. We suggest hiring Ears with Beers to help separate your wedding from the other because this is something we had never heard of before and thought it was so cool! Definitely something we enjoyed and loved interacting with the donkeys as well as Paula on our wedding day. Help make your wedding day a special and memorable one and help support small businesses in Texas!

ros!! What a great idea for events!! Thanks again!!
One of the highlights of our day that everyone will talk about for years! They were on time, professional, and made our day so incredibly special. 100% the best decision into our wedding!
This was one of the best things we have used at now the third wedding we have thrown. Those sweet little donkeys were such a hit with all of our guests. Big and little
Ears with Beers was listed as one of the suggested vendors at our venue, and we knew immediately we wanted to work with them. We knew we would be thrilled to have the burros at our cocktail hour, and seeing them at the ceremony and getting pict...
ures was fantastic. We didn’t realize they’d be an equally big hit with every one of the other guests – they were the most popular photo opportunity amongst friends and family, and the most common topic of conversation in the weeks after. The staff was professional and helpful, and they were very easy to communicate with in the weeks leading up to the big day to make sure everything was on schedule.
We are event planners and we have worked with Ears with Beers multiple times and each time they have been on time, very professional and accommodating, and overall just amazing. The donkeys are adorable and well managed. Can't wait to work with...
y'all again!
Hands down one of the best decisions I made for my wedding! I was able to surprise everyone (including the groom!) by having Ears with Beers at the cocktail hour. All my guests and my entire wedding party were so surprised and were so in love w...
ith the donkeys. It was a huge hit! I am still seeing friends post pictures of themselves on social media from the wedding with the donkeys. Some friends are still randomly texting me saying how awesome the beer donkeys were. I could not be more happy about my decision!!
The miniature donkeys through Ears with Beers were amazing!! Such a big hit with our guests. We were so glad we got them. So cute and very clean and well mannered. Our cocktail hour was outside at the Addison Grove and it was 30 degrees and...
drizzling on our wedding day. The donkeys were the perfect distraction from the cold weather for our guests. Delaney is amazing to work with. Very responsive and organized. Everything was so easy to set up. Also more affordable than other beer burros we looked into in the area. Would highly recommend booking with Ears with Beers to anyone!!
Ears with Beers was the second greatest thing that happened at my wedding, apart from marrying my best friend! :) I worked with the owner, Delaney, to coordinate their arrival during our cocktail hour as a surprise for our guests. They were a h...
uge hit - and the burros could not have been sweeter. They were very gentle, very calm, and SO SOFT! Our guests couldn't stop talking about the beer donkeys - I think it really gave our wedding something special that no one had ever seen before. I'm so, so, so glad that I hired them for our big day. If you're considering beer burros for your wedding, DO IT! I promise you will not regret it. I would give them ten stars if I could. Thank you to Delaney and her staff for making my day absolutely perfect.
Ears With Beers was such a hit at our wedding! We had no idea what beer donkeys were prior to our planning, but we're so glad we found them. It looks like other reviewers had similar experiences - but our guests also ran out of cocktail hour ...
over to the donkeys. The handlers were great and so easy to work with. And honestly, their pricing is very reasonable. I would absolutely recommend Ears with Beers.

My fiance showed me a picture of a "beer burro" as a joke a few months before our wedding. I fell in love with the idea and became obsessed with having a wedding donkey. I searched for almost two months before I found Ears With Beers, and I am ...
so happy that I found them. They brought two donkeys to our wedding and the donkeys were so adorable and sweet. The donkeys served beer and lemonade to the wedding guests and people were so surprised at the novelty. I would love to just hire them for a party because they are so much fun! I highly recommend Ears With Beers for any wedding or party.
If you asked me before if I ever envisioned donkeys at my wedding, I'd have to think about it for a little while. They were, by far, the best little surprises we could have asked for. My maid of honor gifted these little beauties to us and it w...
as such a treat. Spirit and Carrie were the sweetest little angels and people were over then moon to have them deliver drinks to them. Delaney (the owner) was so very kind and gentle - it was a delight having them attend.
Ears with Beers was the BIGGEST hit at our wedding! My now husband is a craft brewer for a living and instead of a groom's cake I surprised him with beer donkeys....I mean how cool is that?! My best friend and sister (MOH) were the only ones th...
at knew about this little surprise and let me tell you people still talk about it months later.
First of all, the donkeys are the sweetest things EVER. They are so gentle, tame and sweet. It was such a unique touch to the wedding and something we will never forget. Some of my favorite pictures from my wedding are the ones of my husband seeing the donkey's for the first time and the pictures of us with them. I could not be happier that I spent the money to have them come out. They are something my guest and I will never forget.
Ears with Beers was great to work with and made the entire process very easy. You can tell they take great care of their precious donkeys and I have nothing but the best things to say about them. They look beautiful too at the wedding with the flowers they put on them, it's the perfect touch. If you are thinking of having beer donkeys at your wedding than you definitely need to get in touch with Ears with Beers; you will not regret it!
