Marvelous!

Our daughter consulted several planners but chose Heather and I am so glad she did. Heather is professional but also very friendly and conveyed that she really cared about us. She gabe great advice and guidance but never said you have to do it this or that way.

Heather went above and beyond!

After speaking to several day of coordinators, we instantly connected with Heather and hired HDE at the beginning of our engagement for day of coordination for our 8/24/19 wedding. Communication was fantastic during our year and a half long engagement. Heather helped up manage ALL the vendors we had for our large wedding (214 people) and helped us lay out the timeline for both us and the vendors. She attended both vendor and one-on-one meetings with us and helped to set up the (crazy amount) of decor at the venue (and stopped by our house to pick up some decor as well)! She also stood up for us when one of the vendors backtracked on helping to set up/break down decor and as a result, we received a few "extras" from that vendor. The day of went flawlessly and Heather made sure that both our party and our vendors had everything we needed. We couldn't of asked for a better day and credit HDE for that!

So sweet, helpful, and easy to work with

Heather was so amazing for our small wedding. Our venues were not really venues (town hall, a restaurant that doe *not* have a function room) and even though we only had 20 people, I could not have handled the details myself. It's hard to get vendors for a small wedding sometimes and on top of that we had ours on a Friday afternoon in the dead of winter. Heather knew the area, took care of the little things easily and helped make our day so special. I highly recommend her if you want someone who is chill, just gets it, and is willing to work with your specific vision.

Wonderful Experience with Heather!

My husband and I have the pleasure of working with Heather leading up to our wedding this past fall. We live out of state so having Heather to guide us and help us prep for our wedding was invaluable. She was responsive, proactive, and really helped coordinate all our vendor calls and details right before the wedding. It was also really helpful that she had previously done weddings at our venue and knew the ropes. Day of she was cool, calm and collected helping to keep everything moving and was attentive to my husband and I through out the day. I would recommend using Heather to my nearest and dearest. You'll be in good hands!

Wedding Planner

Heather did an amazing job with our wedding. Hiring her was easily the smartest thing we did. It certainly took all of the stress off my bride and I as we knew everything was going to be taken care of. She was with us every step of the way and provided us with amazing recommends regarding food, signage, dj, etc. People of all ages left our wedding saying it was the best that they had ever been to.

My advice- Hire Heather now and stop looking elsewhere immediately!!!! She is the best!!

BEST decision we made!!

We hired HDE for our August 2018 wedding at the House of the Seven Gables in Salem. I honestly don't know how to even start explaining how perfect the entire experience was. The venue is essentially just a plot of land, so everything had to be brought on - the tent, caterer, tables, chairs, flowers - everything. It was was going to take a lot of work and sourcing, and as fun as I thought it would be, I knew in my heart I did not have the expertise or time. I also knew I wanted a certain design/look, but I had no idea how to execute it to the caliber I wanted. Heather made the wedding planning experience totally fun and stress-free. I never ONCE worried about the planning or design of our wedding once we hired Heather. I felt totally comfortable handing parts of the process off to her completely, trusting that she knew what we wanted and would make it happen (and boy - she did!!!). She knew all the best vendors and was able to source and narrow down options with ease, and always kept our budget in mind. She completely understood my vision and what we were looking for and delivered every. single. time. Come the day-of, everything was even better than we could have imagined. It was truly the best day of our lives, and it could not have happened without her. I cannot recommend her coordinating and design services enough. The best decision we made for our wedding was the decision to enjoy the process and put trust in another person to make it all happen. Heather's value and knowledge truly knows no bounds. Everyone kept telling us how beautiful our wedding was and I just kept saying, "And I didn't even do anything!!!" We were able to enjoy our wedding to the fullest extent - no regrets. Our wedding was the most perfect and flawless day and I have Heather to thank for making that happen for us. THANK YOU, HEATHER!

Wonderful Experience With Heather Dawn Events

As mother of the bride it was so important to me that my daughter's planning go smoothly and be as stress free as possible. Having Heather for a planner was the best choice she could have made. Heather was organized, professional, and calm. My daughter was busy with school and work and Heather was very attentive and responsive to her wishes. Heather's access to great vendors and her presence on the day of the wedding were invaluable. She was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend Heather as a planner for your special day!

Heather is an outstanding wedding planner/coordinator! She helped execute our design plan flawlessly and her presence at the venue on our wedding day was invaluable. Heather joined our wedding team very early on and through out the whole process was incredible. She always responded promptly to communications and made herself available for multiple FaceTime meetings, conference calls and in-person meetings. Heather has great knowledge of the wedding industry, especially on the North Shore of MA. For my wedding I knew I wanted to take the lead on most planning aspects and Heather did a perfect job of being my right hand girl! I am so grateful I had her as a wedding planner, I would highly recommend her to all future brides!

Heather is beyond amazing!! My wedding from the initial planning right until the end of the wedding was flawless because of Heather . She is extremely professional, organized , calm and attends to every single detail. She never said no to me. She responds almost immediately to anything I ask her. She has access to so many quality vendors. She also has excellent relationships with everyone. My wedding was perfect from start to finish because of her. There is no better event coordinator in the business.
