frequently asked questions

Hiring a wedding planner is extremely beneficial if you and your fiance want to truly enjoy your wedding day! As your wedding planner, we are with you every step of the way, depending on the package you choose. This means that you have out unlimited professional advice and assistance throughout the entire planning process.

We are your friend, encourager, stress-reliever, and unbiased opinion when things get sticky with family and all these decisions. Planning a wedding takes countless hours, so why not have a professional wedding planner on your vendor team to lead the process for you! 

Why should I hire a Wedding Planner? 

We can’t stress enough how different the roles are of an Event Manager/Event Coordinator working for a venue and an independent Wedding Planner. The venue manager does just that, they work for the venue. They are there to oversee that everything within the venue goes well. If they have an in-house caterer then their main focus is on executing the food and beverage portion of the wedding, including managing the waitstaff.

When you hire an independent wedding planner you have a professional working directly for you! We are there to plan out all of the logistics, recommend and manage your vendors throughout the entire planning process, and on the day of we are there to ensure setup is being done according to plan, that all design and floral installations are going smoothly and to be the liaison between you and all your vendors, including the venue so you can truly enjoy your day, stress fee. 

My venue provides an onsite Event Manager/Event Coordinator.

Why do I need an independent Wedding Planner in addition to him/her? Why should I hire a Wedding Planner? 

We specialize in Full Service Wedding Planning + Event Design, but we also offer a Partial Planning Package and our signature Wedding Day Management Package. However, we do also offer other packages including custom packages based off what you are looking for, as well as A La Carte offerings. 

What type of wedding planning services do you offer?

A majority of our clients actually live out of state and even across the country! When you are planning a wedding in a different geographical area than where you live, hiring a wedding planner is crucial. You won’t regret having a planner on your team who is located in the area of your wedding. Our knowledge, experience and vendor relationships will make for a smooth planning process. We will also be your “boots on the ground” and be able to attend vendor meetings on your behalf. 

I am planning a wedding in New England, but currently live out of state. How can you help me plan my wedding? 

You should choose Heather Dawn Events because Heather personally has over 9 years of experience in the wedding planning industry and over 12 years of experience in the overall hospitality industry. HDE was created with a hands on approach and is led by one of the top wedding planners in New England. The owner, Heather, is onsite at every wedding unless specified upon booking, excluding our Wedding Day Management package.

Overall, we are a driven and compassionate team that is truly grateful for each of our couples and firmly believe that your wedding day should be just as magical as you have always dreamed it would be. 

There are so many Wedding Planners, why should we choose you and your team?

Due to our hands on and unique approach we only take on a limited number of weddings per year in order to ensure each of our couples have our undivided attention and full professional expertise. 

How many weddings do you and your team plan a year? 

Absolutely not! During our initial consultation we will discuss what you are looking for in a planner, as well as what is overwhelming you. We work with all different sorts of clientele; some want to be very hands on, while others want to be very hands off. We will discuss exactly what type of process you are looking for and we always respect how involved or uninvolved you want to be with it. 

I really love the idea of planning my own wedding, but am starting to feel overwhelmed. If I hire you will I lose control of assisting in the planning process? 

The owner, Heather, has personally been in the wedding planning industry for over a decade.
