The Best Decision We Made

If you're wavering on the idea of hiring a wedding planner, let me make it easy for you: do it. And if you're unsure which wedding planner to entrust with your special day, look no further than Blue Skies.

Working with Heather, Chris, Sam, and Amanda from Blue Skies was an absolute delight. Every interaction, from their thoughtful emails to our monthly meetings, filled us with excitement and confidence. Every vendor they introduced us to was incredibly talented, genuinely kind, and people we were excited to be able to work with. It truly felt like we were assembling a dream team for our big day.

Perhaps the most invaluable gift Blue Skies bestowed upon us was the ability to enjoy our wedding day to the fullest. After months of meticulous planning, we were able to relinquish all worries and simply bask in the joy of the moment. Thanks to the seamless coordination and flawless execution by the Blue Skies team, every minute of our wedding day was pure magic.
Our wedding day surpassed our wildest dreams, and we have Blue Skies to thank for that. Their dedication, professionalism, and unwavering support made it the happiest day of our lives—a gift we will treasure for eternity.

If you want your wedding day to be everything you've ever dreamed of and more, look no further than Blue Skies. Trust me, it'll be the best decision you ever make.

Best experience ever!

Samantha went above and beyond to make my dream wedding come to life. She was so helpful and always answered my questions in a quick manner. Our wedding was supposed to be outdoors but when the weather made that impossible, Sam quickly executed our back up plan. It was far beyond what I could of dreamed of. I cannot recommend her and the Blue Skis Team enough!!

The perfect wedding!

We had the most wonderful experience working with Sam for our daughter’s wedding!!! She helped select top rated vendors, worked closely with our daughter to create her “vision” of her perfect wedding day. She was always available for calls to answer any questions that came up, and there were many. She was on site for all the events during the weekend and coordinated everything with the resort’s event planner and with all the vendors. The wedding weekend was seamless! We highly recommend Sam!!!

The Best Decision We Made!

Hiring Blue Skies Weddings & Events was the best decision we made for our wedding. Heather’s eye for design is unmatched — every detail was elegant, thoughtful, and breathtaking. Our ceremony and reception looked like something out of a magazine. She anticipated needs we didn’t even know we had, and her calm, gracious presence made the entire planning process stress-free. If you want a wedding that feels luxurious, seamless, and completely YOU, Blue Skies is the only choice!

The BEST planners!

I cannot thank the Blue Skies wedding planning team enough! I mainly worked with Heather for the Demi Couture package for my destination wedding of 180 guests on 3/29/25 at the Don CeSar. She was an elite planner who went above and beyond the partial planning package. I knew when I spoke to Heather for our initial consult that she would be my go-to girl! (I had spoken to quite a few planners in the area).
Heather has a calming presence that I very much needed during wedding planning process. She is enthusiastic about all things wedding and guides you into picking the best vendor and décor decisions - all while keeping your budget in mind. She is extremely responsive, kindhearted, and trustworthy. My wedding venue was affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton and had closed for 6 months. Heather was the positive reinforcement/friend I needed through all the ups and downs. She was super flexible in rescheduling floral/ planning meetings due to the hurricanes. She was creative and set backup wedding plans in place (alternate venues, tents, etc.). I had security knowing she would help us find another venue if ours was not open by our set wedding date. Fortunately, we were able to move forward with our original venue, but I could not have gone through all the planning without her.

Additionally, Heather curated the finer décor details to perfection. She went to my venue days before the wedding just to check on the hotel (as it had just re-opened) and to set up the most perfect table settings I’ve ever seen! I’m forever grateful for this peace of mind days leading up to my wedding. During the wedding, she took the lead and was assisted by planners Samantha and Cate (who were also amazing!) to make things flow between vendors and bridal party perfectly. Samantha even helped create the most beautiful wedding sign, seating chart, and name tags! Heather and her team made the entire wedding day stress-free. Even after the wedding, she continued to help me with vendors and find missing items. I simply could not have planned this wedding and had the best day of my life without Heather and her team by my side! I can honestly say that it was the best money spent from my wedding budget.

With the Blue Skies wedding planning team, my husband and I were able to have our wedding vision brought to life and have the wedding of our dreams! Everyone states how “something will go wrong the day of your wedding.” Well with Heather and the Blue skies team, I assure you that you will have the PERFECT wedding day no matter what! Look no further and hire Blue Skies today for a great wedding planning experience!
Thank you for making our dream wedding possible!!

We had the most incredible experience working with Chris and Blue Skies for our wedding at the Fenway Hotel! From the very beginning, they were organized, professional, and truly went above and beyond to make our vision come to life. Their attention to detail and seamless coordination made the entire process stress-free and allowed us to fully enjoy our special day. Everything was so perfect!!! Don't have your wedding without them!!!!!!!!!

Amazing!!!!

Chris and the Blue Skies team are phenomenal! Chris is an excellent communicator and great with event logistics. One of my favorite things that he did was create a 3D layout of the venue so we knew where every table, chair, decor item etc. was going. He is detail oriented, communicative, professional, calm, and knowledgeable. Chris kept our wedding day flowing so smoothly! I was pleasantly surprised when he stepped in to help us way earlier than expected. Future brides- hire a coordinator and hire Blue skies! It was optional for our venue but one of the best investments we made. It was so nice being able to have a stress free wedding week and wedding day. Forever thankful for the Blue Skies team 🩵

10/10 recommend

I hired Blue Skies for my month of coordination and it was the best decision I could make. Before the month of point, they were easy to reach and ask questions to. They provided a wedding to-do checklist which made planning so easy and kept me organized and on track with things to do! Samantha was my lead planner for my wedding and did an incredible job! She stepped in seamlessly to help coordinate my vendors and make my wedding vision come true. After speaking with her for a few mins, I trusted her to make sure everything would come together without adding any stress to me! On the wedding day, I didn't have any worries because I knew she had everything under control. She was professional and managed all my vendors, timeline, set up, and bridal party with ease! It felt like having extra friend there throughout the day. She really did an amazing job and I couldn't be more thankful that she played such a crucial role in helping us have the best day ever!!
