Best Ever!

Heart of Harlow was one of the best decisions i made for my wedding! Mandy made everything so easy and simple for me. I did not have to worry about a single thing on my wedding day and that was so important to me. She took care of everything, from setting up and putting away, to coordinating with other vendors for the day, and executing a perfect timeline. I cannot recommend Heart of Harlow enough!! Easily one of the best vendors I had for my wedding!

Pleasant and Professional

Mandy was excellent in communicating to the vendors, wedding party, and guests as well as managing the wedding day schedule. She is also very calm and pleasant to work with which eased anyone's nerves about the big day.

My wedding day was perfect, thanks to Heart of Harlow

Mandy did an amazing job as our day-of coordinator to help the day go as smoothly and stress-free as possible. So much so, that we specifically received compliments from guests of how helpful she was. From set up, to cue-ing each member of the bridal party to walk during the ceremony, to keeping us (bride and groom) on track and aware of each scheduled event, the day could not have gone any better, thanks to Heart of Harlow!

Hire Heart of Harlow if you want a wedding magician and a BFF

Mandy (& her team) were incredible to work with. Her energy, personality, and attention to detail/style make her the ultimate coordinator trifecta. Not only did she make it easy, but she made it fun! She understood my wedding vision immediately and took the time to send me ideas/images to keep it affordable and still chic. If you're looking for someone who you not only feel like you can trust but that you genuinely want to be friends with - Mandy (Heart of Harlow) is your gal!

So glad we found Mandy!

Mandy was amazing. We are so happy we found her to help coordinate our wedding. We are from out of state and Mandy was available via text, email or phone calls to answer any questions and give suggestions. We had to find a last minute indoor venue and Mandy made sure we were taken care of without having to worry about our special day. She has the most positive attitude and is great to work with! Book Mandy now so you’ll be stress free on your wedding day. -Kate & Keith Short

Perfect day!

I was blessed to meet Megan with Heart of Harlow completely last minute after my original, and AMAZING, coordinator unfortunately couldn’t make it (Covid, ugh) Of course you can imagine my stress and concern with these sudden last minute changes! I had spent the last year building a great relationship, with someone else! Megan though, was the absolute sweetest and stepped up and in without hesitation! She went above and beyond our whole day to make sure it was everything I had always wanted! There isn’t enough thanks in the world I could give to her! I mean this girl even became my last minute seamstress when my dress ripped!! If you’re looking for a company that will treat you so much more than just a client, and almost more like a friend. These are your girls!

Valuable and the key to the OBX wedding day!

We are from Tulsa, OK and were looking for someone experience in the OBX to assist us with details and running the wedding day. Mandy was fabulous and helped us with ideas/suggestions, contacts, vendors, outlines, and she definitely was a huge help with family dynamics as well. Although our group was small, the rehearsal and wedding day went smooth for all! After the rehearsal meeting (it was short but valuable) my husband asked, "Where did you find Mandy? She's the key to tomorrow, and worth every dime!" Thank you Mandy!

Made our day a success!

Mandy and her team were essential to helping our special day happen! In addition to COVID, we were also experiencing a tropical storm during our wedding. Mandy remained extremely calm and gave us all of our options. She supported our decision either way! Our day went off without a hitch and we owe it all to Mandy and her team. Lauren, one of her team members, was on site for our wedding day and she was incredible. If something went wrong, we had no idea! I knew I could relax and get ready with my bridal party, knowing our event was in the best of hands. We would HIGHLY recommend hiring Heart of Harlow for your day of coordinating needs.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
