Recommend both coordination & floral/decor!

We are SO thankful that we chose to work with Abby for both coordination and floral/décor services. Abby is the perfect combination of personable and professional. She is extremely organized, timely and full of wisdom, advice and recommendations that you can feel confident trusting!

Communication was consistent throughout the entire year of planning. Abby was super easy to contact via text/call/email at any point. We met with her several times throughout the year, including the food tasting and final walkthrough. Abby put together individual timelines with information and directions for the vendors, our family and bridal party to ensure everyone was well informed on the wedding day. Abby and her team were with us when we got ready in the morning and all the way through to the end of the reception. Not only did she set up all of our belongings at the reception and hotel, but she collected them for us as well. We didn’t have to worry about a single on our wedding day, which was truly the best feeling EVER!

As for the floral and décor, I can’t even express how unbelievably happy we were with how beautifully each and every single bouquet and floral arrangement turned out. They were exactly what we envisioned and included very specific requests that Abby went out of her way to research in order to accommodate our wishes.

We HIGHLY recommend working with Abby & Heirloom Event Co. for your coordination and floral/decor needs! We would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Abby was recommended to us by our planner to provide our wedding floral/décor. We were directed to exactly the right person! From the start, Abby’s attitude was incredibly warm and inviting. She actively listened while we described what we envisioned for our event. She did a great job of directing us when we were unsure, and prioritizing what was most important for us. The floral sample she prepared a few months prior to our wedding day was such a treat – it was so nice to see examples in real life! Everything looked fantastic the day of! She and her team worked efficiently and everything was on schedule.

Excellent team for both planning & floral/decor!

Abby did the planning, floral & design for my wedding, and she was amazing! She gave me so many recommendations for other vendors that made the planning process so easy, and was incredibly responsive. She and her team also made the wedding day go so smoothly! Her team were such a pleasure to work with and made it so I could relax and just enjoy my wedding day from start to finish - and that is really the best gift I could have ever received! She also made such stunning floral pieces for the wedding that got so many compliments, including a custom floral ceremony trellis that was absolutely gorgeous. Really cannot recommend her enough!
