Heidi was absolutely amazing! Though the entire process she was extremely responsive, attended every meeting, and went above and beyond to helpout when she could. I truly don't kno...
w how we could have planned the whole wedding weekend without her! On the wedding day, Heidi and her team had everything handled perfectly and was at mine and my husbands side every step of the way. I can't thank Heidi enough for helping make my dream wedding come true! It was absolutely the most perfect day!
I was absolutely happy with most everything with my wedding. It amazes me how punctual we were. I think a lot of it had to do with Heidi. The timeline helped us so much. I I am gra...
teful for her. Before, during, and after the wedding. I can't wait to be able to use her for my events in the future, and obviously as a referral. She really kept me calm and focused. She was really easy to work with, defended me when necessary, and really great at giving wondering design advice. When I threw curveballs at her, she tackled them effectively and effortlessly. She definitely made hiring a planner worth it! I'll be forever grateful for her!
Heidi Crowder, Owner, was an absolute joy to work with! It was her hard work that brought the wedding of my daughter's dream to life. Throughout the entire planning process, she ...
was always available, extremely responsive when we had requests or questions, and a great resource to guide us based on her experience with planning so many weddings! She also was a bride herself, so she fully understands the emotions that go with the process and the importance of them. The day of the wedding, she relieved all of the stress that goes with being a bride, and mother of the bride. We had 100% confidence in her planning, and she led us and kept us informed throughout the entire day. When she was off doing other wedding day planning duties, she was available and answered her mobile phone immediately to assist us if there were any questions we had. She truly brought the dream our daughter had for her wedding to life. It could not have been a more beautiful day, with happy tears and wonderful memories.
Heidi Crowder should be your wedding planner if you are looking for one! She is worth the investment!

Heidi helped me with just our ceremony set up and breakdown because that was all we needed help with, but she did a great job with it!
I needed someone last minute because I co...
uldn't trust friends or family to execute my vision like a planner would. I felt more at ease knowing Heidi would take my directions and make it happen.
Heidi took the extra step to let us borrow umbrellas, wipe down the misted chairs and even wait with our dog until the pet taxi picked him up after the ceremony.
I have worked with Heidi on large-scale professional projects in the past, so I know she is very organized and dependable. I'm sure she will be able to execute your wedding just how you want too!
There is only one word to describe Heidi and her team- Incredible! Heidi was with me from the start of the planning process and ensured that our wedding day was exactly as we envis...
ioned. She helped us find some incredible vendors and planned the overall vision for our reception at the Mint Museum in uptown Charlotte. On the day of the wedding Heidi was more than our wedding planner and was truly a friend. She knew me well enough to know when I was getting stressed and was always there to calm me or take me away from the chaos for a moment. Heidi, Chris and I are so thankful for you!
Heidi and Stephanie were incredible! They mad my fairytale wedding come true! They were able to locate my grooms pants (which had been left on a bus that was 30 min away from the...
venue when they were found), fix my mothers shoe and help save my wedding dress from red wine just to name a few things. They are a great team and I would recommend them to anyone looking to get married in the charlotte area!
I met Heidi at the Bridal Showcase, and instantly she made me feel warm and welcome to the Carolina Weddings and Events family. She kept me on track throughout the entire planning ...
process, was flexible with my schedule as I don't live in Charlotte, offered unbiased and honest opinions both professionally and from her own experience, connected me with some WONDERFUL vendors, and made the rehearsal and wedding day an absolute worry and stress free day. I would recommend Heidi to anyone, even those who think they do not "need" a wedding planner. Heidi took care of every little detail, so my family and I could enjoy the day. Her detailed timeline was especially appreciated by the vendors who were all on the same page come wedding day. I absolutely loved Heidi, and I now consider her one of my friends!
Heidi and I have been great friends for many years so naturally when I got engaged I knew we wanted to hire her from the beginning. I also had another friend who used her services ...
for her wedding and said it was the best decision she made. Boy was she right. Throughout the entire engagement, if I needed advice on something or needed to get her opinion whether it was colors for the flowers, number of tables we need, what looked good on my invitations, she was right there along the way helping out. She even met with me a few times in person to discuss wedding details and do a walk through of the site. My wedding had a lot of DIY components and Heidi was right there beside me helping me set up and ready to answer any questions I had. When it came time for the wedding day we had unexpected rain and had to go with our plan B. Heidi and her team were extremely professional in setting up for plan B and swiftly moving everything inside to make me and our guests comfortable and enjoy the evening. Throughout the night, I would see Heidi and her team work hard to ensure everything ran on schedule and everyone had a good time. I will say this a million times, having Heidi took so much stress off me and it was so worth adding her services into our budget. I would highly recommend any future bride to hire her. She is the best!!
I realized shortly before my wedding that there was no way I was going to be able to organize all the details that I was sure I had under control. Thankfully Heidi came in to save...
the day! To this day I have no idea what happened behind the scenes, when things were set up, or if anything went wrong. It was great! If you want to spend your big day enjoying the company of your loved ones I can not stress the importance of a planner or day of coordinator. There is absolutely no reason for a bride (or anyone in her party) to worry about anything other than enjoying the moment! This is one of the least expensive wedding expenses, and trust me, it is worth every penny. Heidi made sure that my big day was problem-free!
I met Heidi and her assistant at the Bridal Showcase in 2012 just after I had gotten engaged and had started hiring vendors. The relationship between my mom and Heidi's assistant ...
and Heidi and I was so natural and easy. After hiring several vendors, my mom and I became very overwhelmed about wedding planning and I decided to hire Heidi as a "gift" to my mom to help her de-stress! It was the BEST decision of our entire planning process. Heidi helped keep us on track throughout the year of planning. She met with us multiple times and emailed me back immediately with help/advice (and I emailed her ALL the time!). On the big day, Heidi knew just what to do to make the reception flawless. Everything was picture perfect-like a magazine or movie. Aside from setting up the wedding of my dreams, Heidi and her assistant completely spoiled my parents, fiance, and I by making sure we were fed, always had a drink, and comfortable. She did a fantastic job communicating between vendors and keeping track of the pace of the night. I could not imagine my wedding without Heidi's help. I do not know how we would have done it without her! I would recommend Heidi to anyone!!
I met with three wedding planners total before making my decision, and Carolina Weddings and Events (Heidi, specifically) completely blew the other two out of the water.
I got ...
engaged in October and had hoped for a fall wedding, giving me roughly a year to plan. Unfortunately I had my heart set on a venue that was already booked on all the fall dates my church had available. I was told by my venue that I could get married in the summer (a 10 month engagement) or wait until the following spring (way too long in my opinion!). Every planner I met with EXCEPT Heidi stressed me out and told me that 10 months wasn't long enough. They asked me why I didn't already have a photographer or a florist (umm... probably because I've only been engaged a week?!). Heidi was the only planner I met with who didn't stress me out. Together we made everything work and my wedding was absolutely perfect. It was everything I wanted it to be and can't imagine having done it without Heidi.
Carolina Weddings and Events is fantastic and I absolutely recommend them to anyone!!
At the beginning I was trying to plan the wedding on my own but it got over-welming to fast. We met Heidi at the bridal showcase in Charlotte and contacted her. I am so glad we did...
not only is she a great person and have wonderful personality she was on the ball immediately planning everything. She kept me up to date and on my toes with getting everything done. I do not know what I would have done with out her. The scheduling and recommendations were on point. If you need a Wedding Planner this is the company you should go for. I will definitely recommend her to all my friends. I don't know what I would have done with out her.
Carolina Wedding and Events were great to work with. They are professional and do an outstanding job with making all your wedding dreams come true. It was pleasure to work with the...
m and have them there on the day of our wedding. They made sure everything went the way it was planned and ON TIME!! I could not have asked for a better event planner than Carolina Wedding and Events!
My husband and I got married this past March 2013 in uptown Charlotte, NC with our reception at the Charlotte City Club. We hired Heidi as our "Day of Wedding planner."We could not...
have been happier and grateful to have her help on our special day! Heidi made my day as the bride so easy and stress-free. We were so thrilled that we did not have to worry about a thing as she made sure that our vendors were where they needed to be and did what they needed to do! She also helped & coordinated with linens for the venue and other rentals for the day. Heidi is professional and a blessing to have on your special day!
I hired Heidi from Carolina Weddings and Events as a day of coordinator for our May 2012 wedding near Asheville, NC (we lived in Charlotte at the time) as a gift to my mom to reduc...
e her stress as well as mine. Heidi went above and beyond helping both my mom and I leading up to the wedding. She was super organized and helpful with advice as I had tons of questions. The wedding was perfect and my mom and I didn't have to worry about a thing! My grandparents still rave about Heidi and how sweet she was to them - making sure they were taken care of all night.
I highly recommend Heidi/Carolina Weddings and Events for wedding coordination.
Carolina Weddings and Events provided me with the dream wedding I could have never imagined for myself! Heidi is an amazing person who donated her time and talent to the Operation...
Marry Me Military program. Heidi helped coordinate my vendors and donators, all of which came together in the end to create the most beautiful day of my life! I value Heidi's creativity, her dedication, and the beautiful visions she put together for Jeff and I on Veteran's day! I couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner to share my wedding day with than Heidi. She is amazing at what she does and I would recommend her to anyone I know!
Wedding planning is really hard, and creating our own wedding venue added a lot of stress! We are so grateful to have had Heidi during the process. She really does think of every s...
mall detail and tries her best to keep all other vendors in check! Although there were a few slip-ups with a few of our vendors, Heidi knew how to keep things rolling smoothly for us and our guests! And throughout the process, Heidi knew exactly what needed to be done when, and was always sending email reminders and vendor recommendations.
Having a wedding weekend coordinator was the best decision I ever made! Heidi was WONDERFUL! She exceeded my expectations and went above and beyond what was asked of her. She was o...
rganized, professional, and totally made me feel comfortable and at ease on my wedding day! She took care of so many details and coordinated with all my vendors to make sure I had a perfect day! Would totally recommend her to everyone!
