Blanchard Special Events

My prayers were answered when we found Heidi, our wedding planner. I placed great emphasis on reviews when selecting vendors, and I recall being impressed by the exceptional feedback on her. Our wedding day consisted of a traditional cultural ceremony followed by a modern ceremony, with a three-hour break to prepare for the latter. Despite the lengthy day, Heidi, in my opinion, was the rock that held it all together, second only to God. Several people advised me to hire a planner who shared our cultural background for better understanding, but after consulting with three other planners, I failed to find the right fit. However, Heidi's prompt response to messages and emails, as well as her professionalism, immediately grabbed my attention. Even though it was a challenging planning process, Heidi's positivity buoyed our spirits. Initially, I turned down her offers to help, fueled by trust issues, but her trustworthiness and competence quickly became apparent. She was always available to answer our queries, and her flexibility in working around my erratic work schedule was much appreciated. Our wedding venue was over an hour's drive from home, and when I realized I had left my comfortable shoes at home, Heidi dashed to Walmart and back to get me a replacement, saving the day. She also saved our first dance from disaster with different safety pins and even surprised us with our favorite cake from an outside bakery. Her cultural competence and emotional intelligence shone through in how she handled difficult personalities while keeping me calm all through. The key factor that differentiates Heidi is her genuine interest and passion for event planning, making her more of a partner than just another vendor. Not only is she affordable, but she will also help you save money. My family and friends still talk about how resourceful and helpful she was, and I'm incredibly grateful to Blanchard Special Events for making our big day a roaring success. To anyone seeking an exceptional wedding planner, your search ends with Heidi and Blanchard Special Events.

Months have passed since Heidi's exceptional assistance, but it is long overdue to acknowledge her outstanding service. As the planner of our October 2022 wedding, Heidi's punctuality, compassion, and resourcefulness were remarkable. She was always accessible and aided in keeping me composed and ready for our special day. A big thank you to Heidi for all of her tireless efforts!

On our wedding day, Heidi and her team provided fantastic assistance. Not only did they oversee the transfer of all our decor from the vendor to the venue, they ensured that everything was set up exactly as we had planned. Additionally, they were supportive and helpful throughout the entire evening, and Heidi even took care of bustling my dress. :) Based on our experience, I would wholeheartedly recommend their services!

On August 31, 2018, I got married and realized I needed a day-of coordinator just four to five weeks prior. After reading the great reviews of Blanchard Special Events, I was impressed and contacted Heidi. She immediately made me feel at ease, listening and learning all about my vision for the perfect day. With only two days left before the wedding, I discovered I still needed flowers and decor. Without Heidi's expert assistance, the final touches would have been impossible to achieve. Not only did she manage to secure the decor I needed, but she also expertly coordinated with the venue decorator to complete the look I longed for. Her calming presence on the day of the wedding was a tremendous help, and I value her patience, knowledge, and people skills. Choosing to have Heidi as my day-of coordinator was a fantastic decision, and I'm forever grateful for her help in executing a beautiful and successful wedding.

Heidi's outstanding performance left us awe-inspired! She maintained clear communication throughout our entire wedding planning journey, and her skillful execution resulted in a magnificent wedding. My wife is known for being very specific and often finds it challenging to relinquish control of her projects, fearing that the outcome may not be satisfactory. Heidi comforted her by collaborating closely to comprehend her vision for the event and took full responsibility for overseeing the day. From setting up tables to arranging the decor, liaising with vendors, and ensuring that the wedding schedule was on track, Heidi provided exceptional support. I wholeheartedly endorse Heidi for your upcoming event.
