Very organized and helpful

As a vendor who has worked with Amanda and the team at HEI Events, I can say they provide clear, straightforward and timely communication throughout the planning process. They demonstrate strong work ethics, are highly organized, and excel at time management. Amanda is a sweetheart to work with - she goes above and beyond for the wedding couples and is one of the most organized planners I've had the pleasure of collaborating with. HEI Events' attention to detail and commitment to making the special day a success was truly impressive.

The Best Decision We Made (Besides Saying "I Do")

If you are looking for a wedding planner who is part visionary, part bodyguard, and part family member, look no further than Amanda. Our wedding day was better than either of us could have ever imagined, and it is 100% because of her. She met every need we could think of, down to the last-minute tiny details the night before. The evening before the wedding, we were still scrambling to finish embossing cocktail napkins and creating head table place cards; Amanda gracefully took it all off our plates so we could actually breathe. On the day of, she wasn't just there for us—she was there to assist every single guest with such care. In fact, our families loved her so much they wanted to add her to the family group chat!
Amanda’s professionalism and "can-do" attitude are unmatched. In moments when vendors could be pushy, went MIA, or tried to push pricing that wasn't agreed upon, Amanda was there to handle it all. She took the stress entirely off our shoulders, allowing us to truly enjoy the last few months, weeks, and days of being engaged. She was incredibly realistic with pricing from the start, giving us a clear idea of what we actually wanted versus what might be out of reach. Additionally, her amazing decor rentals were a lifesaver. She had so much to choose from, which saved us from the struggle of ordering everything ourselves only to have to sell or give it away post-wedding.
Walking into our reception space was a surreal experience; Amanda took our vision and created a space that was exactly what we expected, yet somehow still a beautiful surprise. Her collaboration skills are incredible, and she never said no—always meeting every request with a smile. Our wedding day simply wouldn't have been the best day of our lives without her. We are so grateful for her expertise that we don’t plan on ever planning a big event without her help again!
