The Perfect Wedding Planner

I am very grateful to have been in the hands of the best wedding planner in town!

From the first meeting, my now husband and I were very impressed with Miss Herman because of her professionalism, knowledge, confidence, calm and genuine sincerity in wanting to help us with our wedding planning. Indeed, she is very organized - knew which were the priorities, kept us on track, gave us awesome vendors and followed-up with us and for us.
Miss Herman is accommodating- we would text her late in the evening, call her randomly or send her emails during the weekends/holidays and she always got back to us.
Our wedding went smoothly and we had peace of mind. She also touched-base with us during and after the wedding to make sure all our stuff were accounted for.
I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner.

Best Decision We Made Was Hiring Julie!

Our wedding day was even more perfect than we could have ever imagined. We can't even express how much we appreciated everything Julie did for us leading up to and especially on the day of our wedding.

She recommended the most amazing vendors, attended meetings at our reception venue on multiple occasions with us and helped us make important decisions along the way. She was there to decorate the church and coordinate the rehearsal even though it was her birthday. She spent all morning decorating the ballroom for our reception which was absolutely magical, then spent all afternoon and evening making sure everything went perfectly at the wedding and the reception. There is definitely no way we could have done it without her!

We are so very thankful to have met Julie and to have put our trust in her to make our wedding day perfect. She definitely went above and beyond from start to finish and every single thing about our day exceeded our expectations.

Julie started out as our wedding planner, but ended up as our friend. We would highly recommend choosing her to help you plan your special day!

U & R Wedding

We were so blessed to have Julie Herman as our wedding planner. She was organized, understanding, thought out of the box and extremely thorough. We had a Sunday wedding and she was at the venue, taking charge and turning everything around Saturday late night after the wedding that she planned was over at 11:00pm !! She went above and beyond. She made the wedding planning process seamless. Julie would respond to all my frantic emails and texts in such a calm and timely fashion and kept all my vendors itineraries together while making sure we were as cost efficient as possible. She kept her eyes on everything, and I really appreciated it. I highly recommend Julie and I would choose her all over again in a heart beat!!

Wedding coordinator

Julie and her staff were absolutely amazing! I can’t say enough great things about them. It’s only been 3 days since the wedding and I’ve had many guests compliment their attention to detail. From the planning to the event itself, Julie and her crew were rockstars. Our day went so smoothly and I have them to thank for that! They were behind the scenes helping with everything from bandaids to table settings, decor, greeting guests you name it! They were on top of it, lol! So many unexpected things can happen on your wedding day and I can assure you that Julie has it all covered. I’m so thankful our paths crossed and I had the pleasure of her services on our perfect day. Thank you Julie Herman Events! - The O’Connells

Best Wedding Planner Ever!

I so enjoyed working with Julie to plan and execute my recent fall wedding event that came together SO beautifully thanks to her help! I would describe her as very calm, level-headed, organized, experienced, responsive, and helpful beyond words. My father and I could seriously have never pulled it off without her. She kept track of so many details, guided me with lists of things that needed to get done, and completely took care of managing the flow of activities on wedding day. Highly, highly recommend her from my own experience. If you book her, you won't be disappointed.

perfect fit!

Julie was an absolute godsend for our wedding planning. She was very attentive, professional, transparent, and pleasant to work with. We had our wedding in Gainesville FL and we were living in North Carolina at the time. Julie made the process seamless, and we never felt stressed or lost. Her vendor recommendations were perfect for us! On our wedding day, Julie worked behind the scenes to fluidly orchestrate our special day. She has a very calm and confident demeanor, she is very responsive to questions, and she has great attention to detail. We strongly recommend Julie Herman for any event - she is wonderful!

Amazing Planner

Julie was the best decision I made in the very beginning of planning. She was invaluable. She is extremely organized and she will help you every step of the way. She recommended vendors and had a timeline of when things should be done. She was always available to answer any questions. She works very hard making sure your venue is set up perfectly. I finally got to relax and enjoy my daughters wedding because Julie was there to do everything, alongside all of our wonderful vendors!

Julie is absolutely amazing! She was the very first person I spoke with before beginning the wedding planning process. She was so helpful from that moment forward. She recommended tons of venues and vendors, gave me a timeline to keep everything on track, and made my whole wedding day completely relaxing! I didn’t have to worry about a thing! I couldn’t speak highly enough about her services, I would 10/10 recommend her to every bride!

Event planner Julie Herman planned an event for us at our venue, and she totally exceeded our expectations. She gently kept me on a schedule starting weeks before the event to be sure all details were arranged as I envisioned them. She coordinated all the vendors, so I didn't have to plan a thing. She came up with an agenda for the day, which was a good thing, because I was busy with other details and wouldn't have been able to do it without her. She designed all the tablescaping, and accumulated many of the beautiful decorations we needed. They were stunning and received many compliments. With grace and professionalism, she directed all the vendors, and everything was perfect. She is so organized, tactful and thoughtful. She even was able to smooth out ruffled feathers when a couple of vendors stepped on each other's toes a little. She sweetly nudged me to do what I needed to do when I needed to do it during the event. How awesome is that -- to be a guest at your own party! I cannot recommend her highly enough to our clients, friends and family. I need more stars! :)
