HJ Planners is the way to go

We could not have asked for a better wedding planner. Heather was just awesome. She is so organized and was tireless in thinking of every single detail and making sure the quality was top notch. She also has a really sweet and calm demeanor that calmed our nerves throughout the process. She really grasped the feel we were looking for and added her touch. She was patient and accomodating with last minute requests and was very prompt and responsive throughout the process. It was a very special wedding and it went on without a hitch. Heather was central to that. I give HJ Planners, and Heather in particular, my highest recommendation. You can't go wrong with them.

I wish I could give Stephanie more than 5 stars. She gave me absolute peace of mind, which is a lot to say. Stephanie was extremely quick to respond to messages and handle any and all correspondence I got overwhelmed with (I.E. catering). Stephanie is extremely organized and took all of our personal preferences into account. We had a very untraditional wedding with a difficult transition from ceremony to reception, but she handled it without breaking a sweat. At one point, one of our guests started pulling on a lighting pole. As I started to see it fall (it would bring down all the others), her hand jutted out and grabbed it. This woman is essentially Superman.

The moment I put down the deposit for HJ Planners, I slept soundly for the first time in days. She brought everything back to our home from the wedding to ensure we had everything we brought to the venue and I don't think I saw her sit down once. The insane talent, attention to detail, and passion she has towards her work is unparalleled. Do yourself a favor, this is the best vendor you will hire for your wedding.

Stephanie Kincaid helped us put together our 150 guest wedding at Woodend Sanctuary last fall. We were planning remotely from Chicago so we needed someone who was local and had a lot of experience at Woodend. The timeline was really tight but Stephanie ensured everything went off without a hitch! It was such a special day and we are so grateful to Stephanie for everything!!
