Best Wedding Planner Ever!!

Heather is the bomb.com! I was an anxious, very nervous bride but Heather was there every step of the way. My now husband did not want me to have a wedding planner because he was so confident that I could do it myself. But, HEATHER definitely showed him that she can handle it ALL! My family loves her, her team, and also the vendors she recommend that I would want to be apart of my wedding! All they could say was “WOW! I pick the right person! She was on top of everything!” My husband groomsmen that’s having a wedding said they wish they had Heather! I can go on and on of how awesome she is! Best wedding planner ever!

Heather Deserves a Standing Ovation!!

Bride: What an incredible night we had!! We hired Heather for partial wedding planning a little over a year ago. She was warm, welcoming, and understanding right off the bat. She treated us like family throughout the entire process and her genuine positivity and excitement were infectious. Heather was always available when I was feeling overwhelmed and she knew EXACTLY when to give a few tasks to my husband to help ease my stress. Her vendor recommendations all ended up being extraordinary AND within our budget. Life would be a lot easier if I had Heather all year around. I’m honestly going to miss working with her.

Groom: We can not say enough about Heather as a wedding planner. She went above and beyond to make our day run smoothly including surprising my wife with one of her favorite home cooked meals for the reception. Heather built a great relationship with us and was like a second mother through the entire process. She kept us on track, on budget, and as minimally stressed as possible. If you are thinking about hiring an event planner we would recommend Heather 100%.

Best planner ever

Heather and her team at Guest List should be at the top of your list of vendors to hire for your wedding day. From our first meeting I had a sense of relief about how our wedding would go - from big details to the smallest she had an idea and all the answers! Communication was excellent and she was always on top of things! She has a massive warehouse full of rental items to make your wedding special and picture perfect! My bridal party, family and friend loved having Heather as our planner and wish I had another chance to do it all over again because planning with Heather was so much fun and easy! I promise you won’t be disappointed in using Guest List Events for your wedding day!

I LOVE Guest List Events!!!!

We were fortunate to have the opportunity to work with the best in the business, Heather Henson from Guest List Events. She truly understood our vision and ensured that our dream wedding became a reality. Heather captured every little detail and made it even more extraordinary than we could have ever imagined. Despite having an out-of-state wedding, Heather made sure that everything ran smoothly. I highly recommend her, and I feel honored that she was a part of our incredibly beautiful and magical wedding. I might be a little biased, but I can't help but reminisce about such an amazing day! Our family and friends still can't stop talking about our special day. Thank you for making this experience so wonderful and for creating perfection in every aspect.

HIGHLY Recommend for the Perfect Wedding Day!

I seriously cannot recommend Heather and her team enough! She was the perfect day of coordinator and helped make sure every detail was well thought out and perfect through the planning process. We had our caterer go bankrupt a month before the wedding and Heather was able to find us an even better caterer to do everything we needed. She helped run a smooth rehearsal dinner, and made sure everything ran perfect day off. If anything went wrong we didn't know about it. She is very knowledgeable and organized. Our wedding day was perfect and I truly believe it's thanks to Heather and her team!

Best Wedding Planner!!

Guest List Events (specifically Heather, the owner) was more amazing than I could have ever imagined a wedding planner to be. Heather was incredibly knowledgeable, ALWAYS had an answer, has amazing connections and relationships with other vendors, and has the best and most bubbly personality that always makes you feel comfortable and excited. She's also very responsive, which is so important in planning a wedding. I am extremely indecisive, and she helped me through every single decision, whether it was something minor and small to the big things. She is very good at reading people and catching on to their vision, she easily knew exactly what I wanted and provided me with guidance on making that come to life. My wedding day was flawless thanks to her and everyone else at GLE. If anything went wrong, I didn't know about it! Her goal was to truly help me have the wedding of my dreams and she more than succeeded. I cannot recommend GLE enough for planning your wedding. I wouldn't have gotten through it or had the wedding I did without them. Thank you for everything, Heather and GLE, you helped create a day we will never forget!

Most amazing wedding planner out there!

To say Heather and her team at Guest List Events is the best in the industry is an understatement! From the very first meeting Heather was nothing short of being attentive to my every need. She helped me in more ways than I could have ever asked for and made sure the whole planning process from beginning to end was smooth sailing. I can't thank her enough for all she did to make this the most amazing, special, and unforgettable day of our lives. She made my dream wedding come true along with so many other brides. If you are looking for a sign to hire a wedding planner, THIS IS IT and book with Guest List Events!! You will not regret it :)

Best Planner in the DFW

Heather is everything you need in a planner! She’s supportive, creative, has a fantastic network and is always on point. We had a multicultural wedding and she helped in literally setting up, tearing down and everything in between. She is the one you want if you want a balance between fun and on schedule. I couldn’t recommend her more, you want a good glitch free wedding, hire her!

Heather was absolutely amazing!!

Heather was such a pleasure to work with. She is incredibly friendly and professional and very responsive. She went above and beyond in so many ways. Not only was she an amazing planner and day-off coordinator, but she helped SO much with all of those little decorative details that bring it all together. She made welcome signs, bar menus, food menus, printed out pictures for the sign in table, you name it. Heather was easily the best wedding coordinator we could have dreamed of hiring. Highly recommend!!

Elvis "Thank you very much"

I asked my bride of 36 years to marry me all over again with a total surprise proposal/wedding night. Elvis impersonator, acoustic guitar cake, all Elvis/50's everything. Heather was awesome, gave me ideas and found little details that would have never been missed; but sent the night over the top. Elvis guitar picks instead of flower peddles etc. My wife would not go to Vegas the first time and have Elvis marry us in the chapel. So Heather/Guest List Events took my crazy dreams and made it a night my wife will never forget. It is like Heather could read my mind. Heather took my budget and stretched where she could and kept me from wasting money and got me the most bang for my buck. She even kept me calm 48 hours before the wedding and helped me keep the secret. Professional, caring, empathic at times even. She came highly recommended from a good friend I trust and I can see why now.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
