Heather is amazing!!

We originally hired ABBD because our venue required us to have a coordinator, and after working with Heather, we 1000% would've hired ABBD again even if it wasn't a venue requirement. It was such a blessing to have someone "in our corner" throughout the whole planning process. Heather was so prompt in answering any questions we had, no matter how random, and it was so helpful to have someone with a ton of knowledge about our venue make the layouts and timelines for us. She also ensured that our rental pieces all looked great together! At the rehearsal and wedding, she was very direct but in a way that was so warm and never intrusive. We didn't have to worry about a single detail from the second we showed up at the venue--she took care of everything! It was such a blessing to not have to watch the clock to know when to move onto the next thing while getting ready or have to set up all of the decor we brought ourselves. We cannot thank Heather and her assistants enough for making our day so stress-free and smooth! Our entire wedding party also spoke so highly of her throughout the wedding weekend. Absolutely wonderful :)

The best planning team!

I am so happy to have chosen ABBD as my wedding planners. I was lucky enough to work with Amanda, Heather, and Jen. Amanda immediately understood my vision from the first phone call we had, and everything ended up coming together so beautifully- even better than I could have imagined. I trusted Amanda and Heather's expert guidance throughout the whole planning process, and appreciated their responsiveness, flexibility, and patience to work through all the little details with me. They are truly talented at what they do. On my wedding day, I had a sense of ease and I felt so taken care of because I had Jen by my side. She was the most calming presence, was so organized, and made me feel so special. I can't recommend this team enough!

Best Wedding Planner in the Industry!!!

There isn't enough complimentary words in the dictionary to describe this wedding planning company. Heather was not only my wedding planner, she is my twin soul. She is the most beautiful, professional, and talented person in this industry. While my wedding was an absolute dream (because of her), it also was a sad day because it was the last time I knew I would get to work with her. Heather is not just your planner, but she becomes an extension of your family. At least for me, she did. She is hardworking, knowledgeable, communicative, down-to-earth, real with you, helpful in ways to save funds, funny and just an absolute blast to work with. What's noteworthy is how flexible and compassionate they were during the pandemic, especially with payments. They took in consideration my financial situation during the time and didn't ask for anything, whilst still working hard for me. Working with this company will be the best decision you will make. There aren't enough stars to rate them appropriately, because it surely surpasses 5.
