We hired Heidi for partial decor, planning, and full-day coordination, because we were planning a Northeast Ohio wedding from Philadelphia--one of the best choices we made all year! For some perspective: about a 300 person wedding, coordinating a horse and carriage ride with personalized music requiring special cues, driving all the way down to Canton from Cleveland several times, coordinating two cultural norms. With over a year to plan, Heidi was receptive and responsive to any and all ideas we had, was very good about understanding and enhancing our aesthetic vision for the event, as well as suggesting do's, don'ts, maybes, and maybe-nots from her vast experience with wedding events to save us time, money, and energy along the way (example: that's a cool idea on Pinterest, but, honestly, the energy it goes into it is not worth the effect--spot on advice!)! She was great about handling (and in several cases recommending/giving advice on) the vendors and scheduling, for both vendors and all of the VIPs in the wedding (and I'm a schedule and to-do list freak) throughout the process. On the day of, she and her team were there making sure all of the "behind the scenes" flowed well. Our venue manager noted it was the best and most smoothly run wedding he'd ever had--and they do about 70 or more a year! I have no doubt that Heidi was the reason it felt that way. A wedding requires a lot of elements, and having an experienced professional be sure the necessary ones come together, in an efficient manner, was so clutch! Money well spent for a year and a day's worth of work, for those who are concerned about the price of a coordinator/planner. And, when choosing, Heidi's personality made all the difference: She's friendly, warm, and honest--makes her feel more like a girlfriend than your contractor/vendor. For me, that was very key in my hiring of her--her ability to understand the vision and communicate with me in a way that feels like a good friend helping me out than som

We met with Heidi long before I was convinced that we needed a “wedding planner” for more than the day of the wedding.

As the planning proceeded, I realized how much I depended on Heidi for her expertise, advice, and wisdom. While this was my first wedding, she was experienced. She truly “understood” our (the parents’ and the kids’) visions and all our personalities and made everything seem manageable and possible. She gave us perspective and more importantly, made both the planning process and the wedding day memories to cherish.

Heidi was amazingly organized, anticipated all our needs, worked well with all the vendors, and was to first to send us professional-looking photos of the venue and ceremony. She went beyond what most of my friends’ planners had done.

Heidi is the best! We look forward to our next daughter’s wedding (whenever that may be) just so we can work together again!

Honestly, a 5 star rating for Heidi and her team is not high enough, she's that amazing. Hiring a wedding planner was the best thing we did for our wedding. Heidi was able to coordinate a wedding for my (now) husband and I, which happened in Northeastern Pennsylvania. From the church, to the bagpipers, to the toiletry baskets in the bathroom, everything was absolutely perfect. She was able to keep myself and our parents on track with everything that needed to happen and was able to apply her expertise in a way that I didn't even know possible. She was able to take my vision, run with it and suggest ideas that I would not have thought of. For that, I am grateful to have such wonderful memories of my wedding day.

It is obvious that Heidi is enthusiastic about she she does, and that shines through her work. Her level of creativity and professionalism is unmatched, as is her attention to detail. People are still talking about our wedding as if it just happened yesterday, that's how impressed our guests were. Heidi also brought 2 day of coordinators with her to ensure our day went smoothly. I tend to be a total control freak when it comes to event planning, and I felt 100% confident leaving everything in their hands and trusted that they would take care of everything, which they did. My expectations were absolutely surpassed and I have truly never had a more stress free day in my life.

Do yourself a favor, stop reading reviews and hire Heidzillas for your wedding planning needs. It will be one of the best decisions you make for your wedding! You will not meet a more organized, enthusiastic and professional group of wedding coordinators!
