About Us

The people behind Ahornevents.

Ahornevents is about bringing the right people together and creating events people genuinely enjoy.

What we do.

Artists, catering, event organisation — sometimes all of it, sometimes just one part.

We work with private clients, companies and organisations to create events that fit the occasion and, most importantly, the people who are there.

No standard package. No event has to look like the one before it.

How we work.

For us, a good event starts with listening.

Tell us what you're celebrating, who is coming and what you have in mind. We bring together the people and the pieces needed to make it happen.

Simple communication. Good people. And one person to talk to.

Team

Meet the people behind it.

Different backgrounds, different strengths and one thing in common: we like making good things happen.

Thomas Hetlinger

Thomas Hetlinger

Founder & Creative Director

The ideas, the artists and usually the first phone call.

Thomas founded Ahornevents and has been working in events and live entertainment for more than 20 years.

He knows the artists, knows the industry and has a pretty good feeling for what works in a room — and what doesn't.

From the first idea to the right entertainment, Thomas is often where an Ahornevents project begins.

Elena Hetlinger

Elena Hetlinger

Operations & Production

The person making sure the plan actually works.

Elena takes care of the organisational side of Ahornevents and keeps the many moving parts of an event together.

Timings, coordination, production and all the details nobody should have to think about once the guests arrive.

In short: when everything looks easy on the day, there's usually quite a lot of Elena behind it.

Christine Fröschl

Christine Fröschl

Visual Content & Photography

The moments you didn't even notice she caught.

Christine captures the people, the atmosphere and all those small moments that make an event feel like itself.

Her photography is about genuine expressions, closeness and emotion rather than simply documenting who stood where.

The result is a visual memory of the evening that still feels alive afterwards.

Günther Leitner

Günther Leitner

Photography

The big moments, the small details and everything in between.

Günther has more than 20 years of experience as a freelance photographer and videographer.

His reportage-style photography captures an event as it really happens — from the moments everyone sees to the little things happening quietly around them.

Weddings, birthdays, concerts, portraits, fashion shows and events of all kinds: his focus is always on the people and the story of the day.

Alexander Ploiner

Alexander Ploiner

Video Production & Visual Media

Because some moments need to move.

Alexander takes care of moving images and video production for Ahornevents.

Live performances, people, energy and atmosphere don't always fit into a single photograph. His videos capture exactly that.

The goal is simple: when you watch it later, you should remember what it felt like to be there.

What matters to us

Good people make good events.

That's true for the people celebrating and for the people working behind the scenes.

We know who to call.

Over the years, we've built a network of artists, caterers, venues, technicians and partners we know and trust.

That matters to us. Because a good event depends on the people making it happen.

And we like to keep things simple.

You shouldn't have to spend your time coordinating ten different people.

Tell us what you need. We'll bring the right people together and make sure everyone knows what they're doing.

Let's talk

Now tell us about you.

Have an event coming up? Tell us what you're planning — even if it's only an idea so far.

What are we celebrating?

A date, a place and a rough idea are more than enough to start.
