    Heather of HMK Event Designs is absolutely the best!

    We hired Heather to help plan our family Christmas Eve celebration. From the minute we spoke with her, we knew Heather was the planner for us. She was both delightful and creative. After brainstorming ideas and themes, we landed on “Tacos and Tinsel”. We wanted something fun, but also classy. We knew that would be a challenge, but Heather pulled it off seamlessly. While the taco pinatas on one of the Christmas trees were a huge hit with the children, the grazing table was an absolute statement amongst the adults! We couldn’t be happier with the results. We highly recommend HMK Event Designs!

    HMK Event Designs was the best decision ever!

    I cannot say enough about Heather at HMK Event Designs. We hired her for our small, intimate wedding. From our first email, to the day of our wedding, she was absolutely incredible. Her attention to detail was like nothing I have ever experienced(and I'm type-A and slightly neurotic!). Heather brought my vision to life. She set everything up exactly how we wanted. She and her assistant were professional, kind, attentive, comforting, smart, and such hard workers. They dealt with all of our vendors throughout the night. During dinner, my husband looked at me and said, "Heather was the greatest hire for the wedding, we couldn't have done it without her". I agree. Of all of our incredible vendors, Heather was the best decision we made. To be able to be in the moment, fully, during what is a fairly hectic day, was priceless. Heather allowed us to do that. I am forever grateful.

    Awww thank you so much Stephanie! That is the greatest compliment. You and Sean are the greatest - and I'm pretty sure spent the most time on the dance floor. It was such a pleasure getting to know you both!

    The best decision we made for our wedding

    HMK Event Designs was by far the best decision we made regarding our wedding. Heather and her assistant were so helpful, professional, and kind. They literally set the entire wedding up, from the ceremony to the reception. My wife had a very specific vision of how she wanted everything, and Heather brought her vision to life. She kept us all on track, as far as sticking to our timeline. I have said to my wife, numerous times since our wedding on 10.21.23, that HMK was THE most important vendor we hired and that we couldn't have done it without them. Highly recommend! Thank you, Heather and team.

    Excellent Event Planner Who Cares About You and Your Day

    Heather can plan ANY event - big or small, luxury or within a budget, adult-only or family-friendly - and any event that Heather plans will always be a winner. I met Heather in her previous role as Director of Events where she not only planned weddings and luxury adult-focused events, but family-friendly events like Winter Holiday Parties, an overnight Camping event, July 4th Bash, Summer Camps, Pool Events to name a few. As a mother of 3 young kids, I was always paying attention to the sentimental details - the activities for children, the crafts, the decorations, the food, the entertainment. There was always something for every age child. When it came time to planning my last First Birthday party for my 3rd son, I knew I would be hiring Heather to help me execute on the "First Down" Football themed First Birthday. Heather's expertise of wedding planning made her the perfect person to help me create an upscale event at my home with family-friendly touches. She listens to her clients - considers all their wants, priorities, budget and makes excellent recommendations. For my event, Heather created a front yard Football-style combine obstacle course, hired an Inflatables company for Soccer Darts, decorated the yard with amazing balloon displays, took care of hiring the linen and tent rental company and handled all the logistics with the caterer. and Oyster shucker. We created a Popcorn bar for children, a Game Face table with necklaces, tattoos and Football accessories, and created a craft table with Football themed crafts. She even spent hours researching bands and other performers that we considered at the start of planning. Heather made sure to emphasize to all vendors what my priorities were (i.e. execution against the theme) and I saw that come through in the details of the catering, bar service and even signage. When we had to move the event indoors at the last minute, she took control of the situation and found a place for everything. Despite the shift inside, our guests said they have never been to a better party! She is meticulous in her details, very communicative and prompt with responses and she makes you feel like she has all the time in the world for whatever is a priority for you. Heather can do it all - weddings, social events, community and corporate events and even family milestone events like our Birthday party. You'll be thankful you hired Heather.

    Wow! What a review! Thank you, Tara. I adore little Maanav (and all the Gupa cuties)! It was a pleasure to work with such a creative client - congrats on your last "first" birthday :)

    Master of details; HMK provided top-notch service for an stress-free day!

    HMK Event Designs was the real MVP in allowing me (the bride) to have a stress free day! She helped to cover all the last minute details, vendor arrivals, keeping us on our timeline, assisting with special guests, all the way to clean-up; she was there every step of the way. She didn’t miss a beat! I believe every event needs a point person like Heather to keep all those important moving parts in order, there is absolutely no way I would have been able to execute this special day without her. There was not a single hiccup in our plans and she somehow managed to be everywhere at once. I HIGHLY recommend her service for any type of event you are planning, you will not be disappointed! Thank you, Heather, for being such an integral part of our special day!

    Thank you, Lindsay! This means so much coming from a fellow planner with a critical eye. I could not have been more honored that you selected me :)

    Simply phenomenal!

    Hi! There simple are not enough words to express our gratitude to HMK events. They made every difference in our day. She handled anything thrown at her large or small including some delicate family nuances. She was attentive to every detail and didn’t skip a beat. Professional, detail oriented, flexible and charming. I cannot thank Heather and team enough for all of their hard work. I would absolutely hire this team again for our next event.

    Thank you, Amy! Not only for the review, but also for being my first wedding where the bride and groom arrive to the ceremony via boat!

    HMK Event Designs is the best!

    You won’t go wrong with HMK Event Designs! As a host, it can be hard to enjoy your events, so this year, with multiple out of town guests, we decided we wanted to experience and enjoy our Christmas morning. Enter HMK Event Designs. Heather planned our Christmas Morning Breakfast. She designed a beautiful tablescape and menu, and was an absolute pleasure. She always made time for us whenever we texted or called, and made us feel like we were her only client. She is extremely professional and exceptional at what she does. We can’t recommend Heather enough!

    Thank you, Dawn! It was a pleasure to work with you and your family for a beautiful holiday celebration.
