The single best decision we made when planning our wedding!

Hiring Kelly & Co. was the single best decision we made when planning our wedding. Kelly and her team gave us the wedding of our dreams! When we first started working with Kelly, we had a venue and photographer, but not much else. We only had a vague idea of what we wanted for colors and design. Kelly was able to take our ideas and flesh them out into a full and GORGEOUS vision. It captured exactly what we wanted so perfectly. She helped us chose vendors that worked perfectly with the vision and budget. Kelly made the entire process SO much easier than it would have been otherwise--arranging vendor meetings, dealing with all the nitty gritty logistics, and thinking through every detail.

The day of the wedding was perfect--my husband and I were able to be in the moment and enjoy the entire event without worrying about a thing. If anything didn't go exactly as planned, I was blissfully unaware (as were our guests). Kelly and her team made sure everything flowed smoothly, from flipping our space after the reception to even making sure we had snacks ready in our hotel room at the end of the evening. We had so many comments about how the ceremony and reception captured our spirit as a couple. Our guests had a blast, and we did too.

I honestly cannot imagine a more perfect day, and it's all thanks to Kelly & Co!

Head Over Heels is the absolute best!

I had the pleasure of having Natasha coordinate my wedding this past October, and she did a fabulous job. She is so organized, attentive to detail AND big picture, and did an excellent job directing my massive family/wedding party at our rehearsal and on our wedding day. Natasha allowed my fiancé and I, as well as our families, to feel completely at ease on our wedding day. It was the greatest gift of all - to be able to enjoy our big day fully without any worries, knowing that we had Natasha and the Head Over Heels team running the show!

Kelly, Natasha and team made our wedding day a dream come true and are worth absolutely every penny! We had a long engagement (1.5 yrs), and met with some other planners who would only book us at full-service rates that were over our budget and needs. Kelly was happy to take us on for a partial planning service (we already selected our venue, which included catering) without any unnecessary strings. She jumped right in getting us set up with photography, video, DJ, and hair + makeup within a few weeks of signing the contract. Kelly has a fantastic list of suggested vendors – everyone she suggested was top-notch, and across various price points. She helped us work through our budget and let us know where we should and shouldn’t think about cutting costs, and what was realistic for the kind of wedding we were hoping for. Kelly coordinated all of our contracts, reviewing each line item and following up when there were price issues or changes. Natasha joined Kelly for a lot of our meetings, and was a wonderful addition! She asks great questions at vendor meetings, takes detailed notes, and understood our vision incredibly well.

While working with Kelly and Natasha for the last year, my husband and I constantly said how happy we were in our choice to work with Head Over Heels – we knew the price was well-worth the peace of mind and time-savings during the wedding planning process. On our wedding day, we felt that even more.

Our reception was dream – every detail was exactly as we visualized, and that is all thanks to Kelly and the HOH team. The flowers and décor were picture-perfect, and even better than we imagined. All the minor details were perfectly thought-through, and Kelly was happy to jump in to move things along and make sure everything ran smoothly. We had a top-notch vendor at every turn, all suggested by Kelly, and it made for an absolutely incredible wedding day.

Kelly was AMAZING from start to finish. I never doubted a single thing that would happen that day because we talked through it tons of times. She worked hard for us via texts, phone calls and endless emails. Her girls were spot on on the day. Everything went flawlessly. I loved working with Natasha and Allie. They were so sweet and supportive. When vendors wouldn't want to do it our way Natasha stepped in and assured me that me that everything would be perfect. They worked long and hard to get my day perfect and I would recommend them to anyone needing a planner! It was fabulous!

Wow! Kelly was amazing to work with! She was very organized and had everything prepared and ready to go before our big day even started. I have to admit that there was a struggle to let someone else plan this most important day of my daughter’s life. Yes my daughter and I did not agree on everything either. What I was amazed is that Kelly found a way to make us both happy and to slowly build our trust as we moved ever closer to the wedding day. She contacted and sent schedules to every one of our vendors and made sure everything was in order prior to our wedding day. She was also very quick to respond (text, email, phone) whenever we had questions or if something unexpected came up during planning. Everything was taken care of the day of and we didn't have to worry about any of it.

So by the day of the wedding, Kelly had earned our full trust and we were all able to enjoy the wedding day and knew that she would handle any issues that may arise. It was so nice to give our full focus was on our special day and absorbing the joy from every moment, confident that Kelly would just handle it. We also enjoyed working with her assistants, Natasha and Ali, and also with Lauren. What a beautiful team they make! Hiring Kelly to be our planner was one of the best decisions I made throughout the entire planning process. If you're looking for a planner or are still debating on whether or not you should spend the extra money, please take my advice and go with Kelly. Your wedding is too precious to trust just anyone and it is flies by so quickly, we are so happy we chose Kelly. No one else could have pulled off this miracle with such grace, joy and love.

Words cannot describe how much I appreciate the amazing job Head Over Heels did with my wedding. Lauren was my head planner and she is absolutely amazing. Nothing but good things to say about her professionalism and organizational skills on my wedding day. She tactfully dealt with several situations on the wedding day and I had several people tell me it was the best wedding they had been too. Everything went smoothly and it was the most perfect day. Lauren you are the best!!!!!!

Kelly and the whole Head Over Heels team are beyond amazing!! Hiring Kelly was one of the first things we did once we got engaged so she was right by my side through the ENTIRE planning process. There is so much more to planning a wedding than I ever imagined, but Kelly is such a pro - I can honestly say I would not have survived the last year without her! She has wonderful relationships with the best vendors and was always on top of EVERY single detail to make sure everything was exactly what we wanted. She was so wonderful I even asked her to help me with our rehearsal dinner which she was an absolute angel for doing! Kelly truly went above and beyond for us and I could never thank her enough for everything she did to make our wedding weekend a dream come true. As amazing as she was during all of the planning, countless txts & emails, meetings with vendors, and even a few of my crazy meltdowns lol It was the day of the wedding that Kelly and the Head Over Heels gals just absolutely blew me AWAY!! Everything was absolute perfection! I felt like a princess in a fairy tale the whole entire day. They took the worry out of everything! There is not a single thing I would have changed. They made everything go so smoothly - I literally had zero stress because they totally had everything covered. I will never forget the first time I walked into the reception to see the decor for the first time. I had pictured it in my mind so many times, but it was far more beautiful & magical than I ever could have imagined! Kelly even added a few surprise touches that she knew I would LOVE! We got sooooooo many compliments on our wedding & I have no doubt in my mind that Head Over Heels is the reason!!!

There truly is not enough that I can say about Kelly and her team at Head Over Heels. My review will not do Head Over Heels justice. From start to finish Kelly was very responsive and knowledgeable about the wedding planning process. She knows practically everyone in the Charlotte area that is in the wedding business. She was super helpful in making sure we found vendors that were classy yet stayed within our budget. After seeing her previous work we were so comfortable to leave details to her and her teams discretion during the wedding day. During the wedding day her team was amazing. They made sure everyone was where they needed to be and made sure we stayed calm. The day was simply amazing. I definitely recommend Head Over Heels for any couple!

Where do I even begin? I could not imagine my wedding without Kelly Martin. When I began my wedding planning process I became interested in the idea of a "day of" coordinator to assist with flipping my venue space. I didn't think I would need a total wedding coordinator. However, when I met Kelly, I just knew. From that point on she was my go-to.

Kelly was spot on throughout the entire process. Whether it was by text, phone calls or emails she was always so available to me. Even if it was past midnight, she would text me right back without hesitation. She always made time for my questions and concerns. Kelly, made me feel as if I was her only client despite having other events going on. She just "got" me, not only as a bride but as a person. I have a very hard time envisioning the final product of something and when I would get overwhelmed over something she would always reassure me how beautiful it would all turn out. I wish I could attach all the pictures to show how amazing everything looked.

Additionally, the vendor choices Kelly gave us were amazing! Each vendor exceeded all my expectations! Our food, cake, linens, etc. Everything turned out amazing! The best part is that once the decisions were made, Kelly and her team took it from there. I never had to worry about contacting anyone, returning anything. She took all those tasks away and just let me focus on other things. Kelly and her HOH team were so sweet in helping with the final details of my wedding. Whether it was going to get a card holder, order napkins or even buying something as small as wood glue-they did it all and were right there if we needed anything prior to and during the big day.

This review cannot express how thankful I am for Kelly and her team. Not only was our wedding flawless, but I feel that I gained a true friend from it. If you are looking for a wedding planner, do yourself a favor and reach out to this wonderful team.

"Who am I going to text late at night now?" :)
