Heart Pine Planning

Heart Pine Planning was an amazing and essential addition to the wedding planning process! Rachel and Maddie were so easy to work with and made the rehearsal and wedding day go so smoothly!

We loved Rachel & Heart Pine Planning so much that we used them for not just one of my daughter’s weddings, but both of my daughter’s weddings. Rachel & her staff are so knowledgeable & helpful. They helped us with the seating chart, venue layout, rehearsal & wedding day timeline. All vendors were contacted prior to the wedding & she verified their arrival time & added it to timeline as well. To be honest, my daughters wedding day went flawlessly & I have no doubt it was because of Rachel & her team. They worked tirelessly ensuring that each detail my daughter(s) wanted, was completed. It also helped me as the mother of the bride, keep my sanity & enjoy the day without worrying about all the small details. They helped us clean up & stayed until the very end. By the end of the night, I felt like I was saying goodbye to close friends. Truly the best group of women. So thankful our paths crossed & we were able to share these special days with them.

Rachel Bourdon is the real deal! My wife and I recently hired Rachel and her team for day-of coordination and it was easily one of the best decisions that we made regarding our wedding day. First, she made two brides feel so comfortable in their own skin throughout the entire process. This was so important to us! To say that Rachel went above and beyond for us feels like an understatement- she was available to us every step of the way and was invaluable on our wedding day. Rachel helped us navigate moving our ceremony inside when it rained on our wedding day- fielding and making MANY phone calls. She drove to our house to pick up/drop off our dogs and even made a trip to the store to find me contact solution. Our day was so magical and we know a lot of the credit for helping us have a wonderful and stress free day goes to Rachel and her team. I can’t say enough wonderful things about her! If you’re considering Heart Pine- BOOK HER and don’t look back! Tye & Stefannie Springer

Rachel with Heart Pine Planning was the most incredible planner for our February wedding in Malibu, California. We feel so fortunate to have signed up with Rachel for the “month of” wedding planning package. She had come to us highly recommended and we heard such great things about her quality of services that even though it was out of state for her, she expressed such enthusiasm for our big day during our initial zoom consultation. Noting she is also the owner, me and my now wife are forever grateful for having her there to make sure everything went as smoothly as it should and making our day feel extra special. The time zone difference and distance was never an issue as she always made herself available when we needed her, especially closer to our wedding date when we would panic over the smallest things. She was always there to comfort us and made sure everything went as planned. Rachel is so sweet and lovely and goes the extra mile to make sure your special day goes as perfect and dreamy as you’d imagined. She listens to your concerns and thinks everything through so you don’t have to. She pays attention to every little detail and somehow manages to make a note of the smallest things. Rachel contacted all of our vendors, joined all of our vendor calls, set up separate calls with them, compiled and coordinated a very detailed timeline with everyone. It is because of her exceptional communication skills and diligence, that our venue and vendors honored what was originally listed in our contracts and discussed previously. Rachel taught us so much about wedding etiquettes and managed to help us plan a modern, rustic, romantic wedding with a touch of all traditional details that we cared for. All of our vendors enjoyed working with Rachel and trusted her to run the show. Her interpersonal and communication skills really shined through while dealing with every vendor under the sun including the venue. Rachel was there to put out every fire and not a single guest noticed anything, but instead would praise our wedding being one of the best they’ve ever been to. Rachel arrived in Malibu a few days early where we had our wedding, and joined us in-person for the meetings, and rehearsal with the venue and bridal party. Rachel thought about every extra table and furniture we needed for our and other vendors’ setups and coordinated all of that with the venue ahead of time. On the big day, besides managing all vendors and making sure the timeline was met, Rachel coordinated all shuttles for the bridal party, and set up all the displays, tables with place cards and favors, desserts, photo booth and coordinated every vendor we had to work together in the most timely manner. I would love to also note she has such incredible patience to manage every concern we brought up, every detailed issue that arises and never had a sweat. She had such a wonderfully positive attitude from start to finish. We are still amazed how she single-handedly handled the logistics of our 125 Guest Count out-of-state Wedding. Knowing we got lucky for her time as she is the owner of Heart Pine Planning, we would absolutely trust any one of her planners as she clearly has very trustworthy judgment. If you’re reading this and considering her services, please trust us that Hear Pine Planning will be the best vendor in your arsenal for your big day, whether local or out of state.
