Hannah Hildebrandt Events

Hannah and her team we're great! She was there to reach out to all of my vendors and answer any questions I had while planning for the wedding. She made sure the wedding ran smoothy and we couldn't of done it without her and the team! Highly recommend to anyone to help with planning, especially for someone like me whose trying to plan while working a full time jobs!

Sarah and her assistant made our wedding day a dream. They made sure everything flowed on time and ensured I had a stress- free wedding day. I could not recommend them enough! If you're on the fence, just do it.

Hannah is AMAZING! She offered advice and guidance when we needed it whether it be about hotels, vendors, etc. She always answered our questions promptly and when we had a problem she always fixed it. Our daughter wanted late night snacks for guests but no place would deliver after 11 pm. Hannah went beyond the call of duty to make that happen and picked them up herself! Our daughter and son in law said it was “the best wedding ever” and that is because of Hannah. We highly recommend her!

We could not have been happier with the services HHE provided! While I only received day of coordination, Hannah helped me brainstorm ideas, answer any questions I had, and built my timeline well before my wedding date to sure everything flowed naturally. Caroline was our day of coordinator and she was amazing! She helped the day flow smoothly from start to finish, decorated our reception so beautifully, and fielded any questions for my husband and I so we could enjoy our day. I can’t recommend Hannah and her team enough!

Hannah went above and beyond my expectations in making for a beautifully romantic and enchanting wedding. The event was perfect down to every detail she suggested. I couldn’t have been more pleased with the results of her planning and attention to detail. Our guests were mesmerized by the evening and we had the most wonderful time. It was truly a beautiful night worth remembering! Thank you so much Hannah!

Hannah was FANTASTIC!! I had to postpone my wedding due to COVID, and she was so flexible with all the changes! A couple of days before the ceremony we had a change in which day of coordinator would be helping us, and Hannah handled the whole thing perfectly and made the transition so smooth! Ariel, the coordinator who ended up helping us was perfect. I could not have pulled off my big day without her! She was so on top of everything and when the bus carrying guests out ended up being an hour late to the ceremony, she reworked my entire timeline and coordinated with my vendors to keep the wedding on track. I had so much fun, and could relax and enjoy my day, and I couldn’t have done that without her! I highly recommend Hannah Hildebrandt Events to anyone looking for a wedding planner/day of coordinator, she is simply the best!

Vendor to Vendor Review - Running a DJ/Entertainment company we have to work very closely with event planners regularly. We had the pleasure of working with Hannah Hildebrandt Events at The Half Moone Cruise and Celebration Center in Norfolk for a wedding of roughly 200 people and it went off without a hitch! Everything flowed smoothly and on time! True professionalism showed at this event and I look forward to working with her and her team again!

We are so glad we had Hannah to help us through every detail of the wedding. Things were so much less stressful being able to rely on her to set deadlines and vendor meetings as well as make sure everything was in order.

Hannah Was the Day of Coordinator for our daughters wedding on May 11, 2019. She was absolutely magnificent with everything . She was on top of everything that needed to be done from start to finish. She was in contact with my daughter a month before and started coordinating with her and the vendors. She was a life saver the day of the wedding , I don’t know what we would have done without her. If anyone needs a Wedding Coordinator Hannah is definitely the one to choose.

My daughter Sydney was married on April 19th and Hannah Hildebrandt was our coordinator. We could not be any more pleased with how the wedding turned out and working with Hannah was a great pleasure. Although I had no prior contact with Hannah prior to the wedding and I let my daughter handle everything, my expectations were exceeded in terms of the preparations, decor, coordination with vendors, and the overall experience. Hannah was at the wedding the entire time from 2pm until 11pm and she made sure everything went off as planned. Thank you again Hannah for making my daughters day one she will never forget. I highly recommend Hannah Hildebrandt Events for any wedding or special occasions. Brien Berckman Chesapeake, VA

Our wedding would not have been the same without Hannah. We hired her for the day of coordination and I am so glad that we did. Not only did she perfectly execute every detail the day of, but she also spent a lot of time making the timeline and contacting all of the vendors prior to the wedding. Everyone was on the same page and knew their role the day of, so there was no confusion or pieces missing. On our wedding day we had 3 tornado warnings, hail, and rain. This completely altered the timeline for not only vendors, but guests as well. Not once was Hannah flustered or stressed. She continued to make alterations and the day ran as smoothly as it would have without the terrible weather! Hannah was always quick to respond and was extremely helpful throughout my whole planning journey. She is caring, extremely friendly, and calming. I recommend her to EVERYONE and can strongly say that you will not be disappointed. Thank you Hannah for everything! :)

First of all, I must put out there that Hannah is not only an amazing wedding planner but an awesome person all around. When I was first researching wedding planners to help me throughout this process, I was very nervous and somewhat skeptical about the type of individual who I would be working with because I am such a "type A" personality. Like most of us, I have a hard time handing over responsibility to others...least of all on one of the biggest days of our lives. However, I can say in all honesty that Hannah made that SO unbelievably easy. She has an eye for style that is like no other and a sense about people that is unmatched. My now husband (Eeek!) and I hired Hannah to help us from day one...almost literally. We got engaged on December 17th, 2017 and we hired Hannah in early January 2018. From the start, Hannah was on top of anything and everything and was corresponding on a weekly basis from January 2018 until our wedding March 30, 2019...and that includes when she was on maternity leave and on family vacations. Hannah made sure that I was well ahead of all timeline tasks and gave me as many vendor options as I needed...although I must say that her preferred vendors are amazing and you really won't need to look anywhere else. All and all, the best decision we made about our wedding was hiring Hannah and her team. She is so well-informed on the industry, can get the best deals, is organized and tactful and an all around life-savor but more importantly now a friend. Couldn't have imagined this experience without her and I highly recommend her and her team to any bride!

The moment my mom and I met Hannah we knew that she was the one to help make my dream wedding come true! From the very beginning Hannah helped to make the entire process enjoyable and stress free. I was worried that being an out of town bride would be hard, but Hannah made it so easy. She always made time for me whenever I was in town and when I couldn’t make it home she set-up conference calls with different vendors. I will never forget meeting Hannah at the rental company’s showroom. Hannah knew exactly what I wanted and had it set-up to show me when I got there. On the day of my wedding I never worried once because I knew with Hannah and her team in charge everything would be perfect. My wedding was truly everything I wanted and more thanks to Hannah and her team!

We had what I called a “DIY” tented wedding reception at my mothers house. I was pretty overwhelmed with all the vendors and extra steps I would need to take to make that happen but Hannah connected me with all the greatest vendors. Each vendor really stepped up to match my vision and several went above and beyond. Hannah’s connections with vendors came with huge discounts! Hannah and her team did a wonderful job of staging our house with decor I had just set out in piles while I got ready in the house and was never bothered, definitely got to enjoy my day. It was all so beautiful. Finally, Hannah really saved us during the reception. My husband and I calculated alcohol per Total Wine recs but more people drank beer (and less wine) than we anticipated, I think bc it was hot. Hannah calmly pulled us aside and let us know we were low and then saved us by offering to go to a nearby gas station and get several cases. Thank you, Hannah, for saving our party and letting my parents enjoy it instead of making that 711 run!

We used Hannah Hildebrandt Events for our day of coordinator and it was the best decision we made! Hannah was so helpful and responsive during the wedding planning/prep process. Kathy was there the day of and she made everything run so smoothly and we did not have to worry about a thing! I would highly recommend Hannah and Kathy for your day of coordinator!

Stress free wedding day because of Hannah Hildebrandt Events. Can't find the words to convey not only the professionalism of Hannah Hildebrandt events but also the warm, personal service that she provided. We never felt like we were just another wedding on her to do list. She really listened to what we wanted and helped to make that all come true. We felt like we were working with a friend who really cared. Her sweet, serene and caring demeanor flowed over into every little detail and just knowing that we were in her hands on the day of the event provided a sense of peace and calm so that we were able to enjoy each and every minute of the special day. Thank you Hannah Hildebrandt Events for making the day perfect for us!!

Hannah is the absolute best and took so much stress off of my husband and I on our wedding day! We hired her as day-of coordinator, and since we live out of town we never got to meet with her in-person in advance of the wedding--yet she is so fantastic and on top of what she does, it didn't matter a bit. Hannah mapped out the entire schedule for the day, told us what to do when, and I'm pretty sure we never had to speak to a vendor on the day of or the weeks leading up to our wedding. She really made it possible for us to be in the moment and enjoy ourselves--which I am so, so grateful for!

Hannah, Kathy & the whole HHE crew were hands down the best decision I made in this whole wedding planning process. With a travel heavy full time job, I didn’t have much free time before much less after we got engaged. I am a very decisive person, I know what I like/want & what I don’t, same went for the wedding vibe/decor. I met with Hannah about a month after we got engaged & laid out my style to her. I told her to run with it & all I asked was give me options, I would decide from those few. She understood what I was trying to do & ALWAYS kept me in the loop. Y’ALL. The wedding was everything we dreamed of & so much more! Hannah was unable to be there due to another booked wedding (she disclosed this to me before I signed the contract of course) but Kathy was an angel! She took care of everything the day of & made sure everything & everyone was as it should be. I couldn’t imagine working with any other planner or team, thank you so much from the bottom of my heart! I could not (literally, would have lost my mind) have done it with out you!

While Hannah was recovering from the birth of her son during my wedding, she made sure that everything was perfect and that I was taken care of on my day! Hannah attended meetings with me and answered all my emails, all while prepping for her new baby and recovery! On the day of, her assistant Kathy and the team took care of every detail- as far as I know the day went off without any glitches! I highly recommend Hannah, Kathy, and the whole team for wedding planning!

I’m so sorry that it has taken so long for me to share my gratitude and my love for Hannah Thatcher Hildebrandt and Hannah Hildebrandt Events!!! She and her team made all my dreams come true and MORE!!! I was basically the worst bride ever who had very specific details in my mind, but never knew what exactly it was, yet somehow Hannah did!! Every step of the way I was calmed when I felt something wasn’t going right, every single detail was crossed off and perfect! If anything went wrong on my wedding day- then I still don’t know about it!!! Please please take my advice and hire this gorgeous momma and her team!!! If you’re looking for photography there’s none better than Kirstyn Marie Photography! I love you all sooo much! Thank you!!!By the way, I met Hannah 3.5 years ago when she was doing a photo shoot, I watched her take scraps and make into the BEST table setting ever, I looked at that beautiful woman introduced myself, and told her when I got married (I was far from even engaged at the time), that SHE would be my wedding planner! That's how amazing she is! All my love to you Hannah!

Hannah was a saving grace! I’m a very OCD bride and she helped with the simplest of details on my big day. She set up decor, coordinated a perfect timeline, and assisted me the bride and the groom in any way possible. After all was said and done I consider her a friend and can’t thank her enough for helping bring my dream wedding to life!

By far the best thing we did in our planning was selecting Hannah as our planner. She took our ideas and turned them into reality. It was so nice just relaxing and knowing she had things handled throughout it all. She is the sweetest and so amazing at her job!

Hannah Hildebrandt Events did an amazing job. Hannah went above and beyond to give my beautiful wife and I the wedding of our dreams. The preparation, time, understanding, patience and experience she has made her a true blessing to work with! Hannah was able to take all of the stress away and make our wedding day a time of fun, laughter, excitement, and of course Love!

Hannah is the best there is! She got my vision and executed it to a tee! She is also so kind, easy to talk to, and knows how to navigate every wedding situation under the sun. I also worked closely with Amanda on her team, who is super on the ball and basically an energizero bunny. Together, they were worth their weight in gold! Definitely book Hannah and choose the full planning package. You won’t be disappointed, and will actually enjoy planning your wedding!

Hannah is just the sweetest, and was fantastic to work with! As our day-of coordinator, she put together a timeline for my big day and then on the wedding day itself, she kept the stress off me and handled everything wonderfully! Even when rain suddenly moved in and threatened to derail our plans, she handled everything perfectly! So perfectly, that I'm not even upset about the rain, I still had the most beautiful wedding day! Everything ran so smoothly thanks to her hard work. I would 100% recommend her services to anyone who wants to have a stress-free wedding day!

Hannah is just the sweetest, and was fantastic to work with! As our day-of coordinator, she kept the stress off of me and handled everything wonderfully. Even when we had to switch to our rain plan, Hannah executed everything flawlessly, even better than I could have imagined! I would 100% recommend her services to anyone who wants to let go of the reins for their big day.

I can't say enough about Hannah & Hannah Hildebrandt Events! She is AMAZING! She made every single one of our (my) crazy ideas come to life, made me feel like our big day had her full concentration at all times (despite the fact there are clearly plenty more weddings going on mid summer), and I feel truly took the time to understand me and us as a couple in making our "vision" become a reality. We had our ~200 person wedding in the backyard of our new home on August 12th, which we closed on just June 15th. She came to the house, checked out her space to work with, listened to all my thoughts, gave me her opinion if I asked for it on certain things (after excessive begging, since she says its about what we want/like, not her!) which I appreciated, and took care of every fine little detail, every big add-on I impulsively thought of along the way... not to mention the day of help which I would recommend ANYONE and EVERYONE use!!! On wedding day, she pretty much only asked me to chyme in if there was a split decision that would have to do with money to be made (i.e.: extra storm tents!), she made sure our drinks were full and there was food in our mouth (literally, handed me a roll of meat and cheese while we road away in our carriage for pictures between the ceremony and reception so I didn't pass out!). I could go on and on about her, but my point is... I WOULD NOT HESITATE IN CONSIDERING TO HITE HER! She is amazing at what she does, genuinely loves doing what she does, and has your best interest and your wildest dreams at heart along the way. She makes you feel she is as excited as you are as your big day approaches, which makes it so much more fun and SO much less stressful! I never worried about a thing. When my dad & I arrived at the end of the isle, I immediately thought "OMG! YAY! WOW! AWW!" after catching a glimpse of my husband standing at the other end of the isle.... Immediately after, and immediately before walking down it, I thought "OMG! YAY! WOW! This is even SO MUCH MORE BEAUTIFUL than I had even imagined!!!" ...And from that moment on, August 12th, 2017 was truly everything and more than I even imagined or had ever dreamt of; a day all of my biggest and wildest dreams became a reality.... the BEST.DAY.EVER! ...& I have my husband, our family, and Hannah to thank for that <3

Working with Hannah was absolutely amazing!! She took care of all of the details and coordinating for the day of my wedding which really allowed my mom and I to enjoy the day without worrying about everything. It made the biggest difference and was 100% worth it. I would recommend Hannah and her team to anyone! She is so experienced in wedding planning and was so opening and welcoming to help me with anything along the way. She is also one of the sweetest girls!

Hannah really pulled together our dream wedding with 110% dedication from start to finish. We live in NYC and really needed someone local in VA Beach to help with all the logistics. She was perfect for the job! She is extremely well connected and she has a good reputation in the area. It was difficult for me to not be 'on site' during the planning, because I like to be involved, but Hannah would send an email and BAM, everything I was worried about would already be taken care of. My wedding was three weeks ago, and I am still getting a steady flow of compliments on how beautiful it was.

Hannah Hildebrandt Events did an amazing job helping us plan my daughter and Son In Law's wedding. They were a godsend and helped make planning the wedding so much less stressful and more enjoyable. This was the only wedding I had planned since my own wedding 30 plus years ago. So many things have changed since then. I had heard so many horror stories about couples planning their own wedding. I decided we needed the guidance from a Wedding Coordinator. We hired Hannah Hilderbrandt Events because of all the wonderful reviews. I can say these reviews are accurate. Hannah and her team are magnificent. Hannah Hilderbrandt is the owner of HHE and every bride, groom or family she works with she treats as they are her one and only client. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and enthusiastic and to help plan your special day. You can work with any vendor you want too, but she has a network of some of the very best vendors in this area. She is very budget conscious and even negotiated a discount from some of the vendor’s fees. Amanda Kitzman, Hannah’s assistant and right arm, was our Day of Coordinator. She is a very sincere, fun, enthusiastic and detailed oriented person and we new were in good hands. From the day Amanda was introduced to us, we had Hannah and Amanda both working with us. We ended up with two coordinators working with us throughout the rest of the planning process. How is that for service !! The day of the wedding an empty bare room was magically transformed into a beautiful enchanted forest. Amanda made sure the bride and groom's every need was met, they were served their dinner, always had a drink in their hand and she stayed one step in front of them for their every wants and need. We didn’t have a care in the world and the bride, groom, and family did not have anything they had to do all day and night except to have fun celebrating our daughter and her fiance’s special day. The wedding was beautiful and so much fun. It was beyond everything we expected. People are still talking about how fun and what a great wedding it was. If you want someone to guide you through planning your wedding, find you the best vendors, keep you on track and within budget, make a usually stressful time fun and make all your dreams of your special day come true, hire Hannah Hilderbrandt Events for your coordinator. Hannah, Amanda and HHE team Thank You just doesn’t seem enough for all you did for Nicole and Jordan’s special day.

Hiring Hannah was absolutely the BEST decision I made in all of my wedding planning ventures, because she literally helped with everything. Hannah has an amazing crew with her but she herself was super involved with planning my whole event from start to finish! Hannah never made us feel like we weren't doing too much or too little, she kept us on task and made sure everything got done in time for the perfect day. I have known many friends work with wedding planners who didn't quite help with their vision or understand them fully but Hannah is incredible at her job and making things happen. I clearly highly recommend HHE to anyone starting to plan their big day, it's so worth it and she will truly do everything she can to make your day perfection!

HHE made the whole wedding planning process so much fun when it can get overwhelming quickly! We felt comfortable throughout and they went above and beyond when the big day came for us :)

Hannah was amazing during the wedding planning process. She worked her magic in making sure I got exactly what I wanted. Her and her team went over and beyond for me and truly made me feel special. EVERY detail was captured on my special day and then some! I would HIGHLY recommend her to any bride!!! We love Hannah!

Where to even begin?! Hannah is the best thing that could have happened to my wedding. We hired her for day-of coordination. All throughout the wedding process she was so helpful and responded to all of my questions right away. Every bride has a vision for how she wants everything to look and when you trust someone else to set it all up, you're never 100% sure that they understood. Well, with Hannah you can be. When I saw the rooms after she and her team set up everything, it was like she took the image straight out of my brain. We were completely able to enjoy our wedding without having to worry about anything else. Even found out later that small things went wrong but we never knew until after because Hannah handled them so gracefully. If you're even considering having a wedding coordinator, look no further than Hannah and her team - they will give you total peace of mind!

I cannot say enough good things about HHE! We hired Hannah for day-of coordination and she definitely went above and beyond that for us. I tend to have a lot of questions, and anytime I would email Hannah with some, she responded very quickly and always had a lot of good suggestions. When it came time for rehearsal and the big day, Hannah and her team were so awesome that Andy and I were actually able to enjoy our wedding! If you are getting married and looking into wedding planners at all,you need to go ahead and hire Hannah, I promise you won't regret it.

I cannot even explain the gift that Hannah was to me on our wedding day! I felt so at ease and calm knowing that the setup was all in her hands. I was truly able to enjoy my day with my family and friends. Our venue required a full room flip from ceremony to reception during photos/cocktail hour. When I came into the room, I was amazed at how beautiful it was. I didn't even imagine it would be so perfect! I honestly felt like the day was perfect and I thank Hannah for making it go so flawlessly. She is so sweet (as was her whole team.) I will recommend her to any of my friends getting married. I can't thank her enough for helping us create the best day of our lives! <3

We knew Hannah was our planner the minute we met her! She was absolutely amazing from start to end! Words can't even begin to express how much my daughter and I enjoyed working with her. We told Hannah exactly what we wanted and she was sure to deliver! She took the time to find the perfect vendors to match exactly what we wanted. From the stunning venue, amazing florist, affordable lights, gorgeous linens, fun photo booth, fantastic photographer, delicious caterer and so much more! My daughter's wedding was magical and everything she ever wanted. If you want your wedding to be everything your heart desires without all the stress, call Hannah! She's amazing and worth every penny! I promise you won't be disappointed!

Having Hannah as our Day-Of coordinator was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning, we absolutely loved working with her! I'm not sure why they call it "Day-Of" because she did so much more than that, to include responding to my thousands of emails! My sister and I met with her while my then fiance was deployed and we both loved everything about her! She was so sweet, fun and friendly, I just knew she would help make our day perfect! With both of our families coming from out of state, we didn't want them to worry about handling the behind the scenes wedding details and Hannah made sure of that. We had so many great compliments about the way she and her girls handled everything and how the whole day ran so smooth from start to finish. Hannah and her girls made sure my husband and I were taken care of at all times as well as all of our guests! Our wedding day was better than I dreamed it would be and thanks to Hannah, we were able to enjoy every minute of it! I could go on and on about the amazing service she provided! If you are looking for a planner, look no further because she is THE one!!!

Working with Hannah as our day-of coordinator was great! We live in New Jersey and were planning our wedding in Virginia, and Hannah helped make it all go smoothly. It was great to be able to relax and enjoy the day without having to worry if the cake had arrived, the favors were set up, and all of the other little things that go along with the wedding day. We had so many people tell us they had not seen a couple have so much fun at their own wedding before -- and that's largely thanks to Hannah! We loved working with her, and she really became a friend!

We hired Hannah Hildebrandt Events (HHE) as our day of wedding planner. Do yourself a favor and get a day of planner. Better yet, hire HHE. HHE showed up at our ceremony rehearsal and my soon-to-be wife and I were sitting there staring at each other not knowing what to do next. HHE took control and made sure our ceremony went off without any problems. On wedding day HHE sent three people to make sure everything was set up, vendors were taken care of, and much-much more. Worth every penny. Thank you for making our big day special. J&A (06/11/16)

Hannah is wonderful - simply put! We hired her a few months before our wedding to help with some last-minute details, as well as day-of coordination. The decision was one of our best! She is knowledgeable, efficient and highly organized. She has a great sense of humor and is enthusiastic about helping with any request or challenge. Most importantly, though, it is clear that Hannah genuinely cares about what she does and the couples with whom she works. I recommend her to anyone seeking assistance with their wedding; you will be impressed!

Adding a wedding planner to the journey to our wedding day was the best decision I could have made. Hannah is a wealth of wedding planning information. I trusted her suggestions and they did not fail to impress. I appreciated her attention to merging what we wanted for our special day with our budget. And our wedding day went off with out a hitch (that I was aware of)! Our guests are still raving about the wonderful time they had. I would recommend Hannah and her team for any event!

Words cannot describe how amazing Hannah was for me and my fiancé throughout our planning process. Not only did she help us locate and find all of our vendors while staying within our budget, but actually enabled us to ENJOY the planning process and our engagement time. She also managed everything the day of with vendors, our timeline and just keeping everything running smoothly. We can't thank hannah and her team enough. Best decision of the wedding!

Hannah was so amazing. I tend to be one who panics and stresses out over everything, and Hannah made everything so stress free! Hannah was so sweet and so easy to work with. Everything was exactly how I wanted it! Anytime I contacted Hannah she immediately replied, and on top of all of that, she was more than willing to take time to help me and answer any questions I needed answered. I can truly say my day would not have been the same with out her. Everything that I invisions, but wasn't quite sure how to bring to life, Hannah always had an answer or a new innovative idea for everything. She made the day so easy for me, and she had everything happen EXACTLY as I invisioned it! I highly highly highly recommend Hannah for all future brides looking for an amazing planner to make their special day perfect!

I hired Hannah for full-service planning of my wedding that happened at the end of September. I cannot tell you how happy I am that I not only hired a wedding planner in general, but Hannah in particular. From day 1 she was professional, friendly, and organized. I work a lot and work kind of odd hours, so Hannah was perfect for getting everything done that I couldn't do myself. Within a month of hiring Hannah, my vendor, flowers, lighting, music, and food was already decided. By 2-3 months in everything was done, save for the final balances! It took so much stress and pressure off of me and allowed me to actually look forward to my wedding instead of dreading something going wrong. Hannah was also there the entire day of my wedding and made sure I got enough food, always had a cocktail in hand, and didn't have anything to worry about. Hannah was always so easy to deal with and was so positive she made the entire wedding planning process easy. When we realized it was going to rain on my (outside) wedding, she worked overtime to make sure we had tents to cover everyone and that everything was set up like I wanted. I would highly highly HIGHLY recommend Hannah to anyone planning a wedding in the future. Every guest I had at my wedding told me it was hands down the most beautiful and fun wedding they had been to, and I owe all of that to Hannah.
