    A Heavenly Day

    Denise is the best planner for a long distance bride. We had her support every step of the way with curating vendors that really fit our wishes, keeping us on schedule, sharing her confident, calming energy and so much more. We can't thank her enough for how smoothly things went, creating the best of memories!

    I’m giving Windermere 5/5 stars! Our wedding day was so special and a huge part of that was because of the impeccable service Denise Bonds provided. From the small details of our wedding to the most important parts, Denise was the best wedding planner.

    Denise and her team are fabulous. She traveled from Illinois to Wilmington, NC to pull together a wedding for 150 people. Denise took it upon herself to find interns for the day-of events so they would flow more smoothly. Everything went off without a hitch, and it there was one we didn't notice it!

    Laura, it was our pleasure to assist you in planning your wedding. You are a well organized person and knew exactly what you wanted. Thanks for allowing us to enjoy your day.

    Denise Bonds was a life saver and so lovely to work with! My mother and I had spent the last 13 months planning my Wedding, which was to be outside at my Parent's home for the Ceremony and a guest list of 275. I decided to hire an event coordinator just one month prior, due to all of the moving parts and particuliars. Denise met with mom and I on more than on occasion. She took so much time and was so patient with us, as we had 13 months of pent up anxiety and worry! We had such a specific vision and A LOT of rituals/procedures during our ceremony. Not to mention- I wanted 7 children IN THE WEDDING, in addition to our 12 Bridal Party members. Denise listened, she made us laugh, and she never made me feel like my vision was silly or not doable. She was INVALUABLE in terms of tweaking certain things that made things flow better but ALSO calmed my Mom's nerves and mine too. Her recommendations saved us. She came to rehearsal and did a lovely job of helping us run such a big rehearsal. I appreciate everything she did so much! Also! Denise had 2 assistance the day of, and THEY were lovely. All the them were lovely and kind and HELPFUL to me at some point. Can't say enough good things about this experience w Denise and her team :)

    I needed someone who would understand my need of elegant's with out to much stress. I had attended a wedding planed by Windermere event planners and I saw how attention was paid to detail and I was not disappointed after turning over my wedding plains to Denise Bonds and her staff at Windermere with only three words "simple but elegant"

    My wedding was one of the most important days of my life and Windermere treated the day as if it were their own. I was blessed to have had Denise right by my side throughout the entire process. I can only wish that every woman has a chance to experience such a beautiful and flawless experience on their special day and I know it can be done with Windermere. I will be using Windermere in the future :-)
