Heather was our planner for my daughter's wedding on Wrightsville Beach in May. Where do I begin? She was very attentive to our email requests and numerous questions we had since we were planning a beach wedding out of town. Her attention to detail is incredible and she has wonderful ideas and suggestions that hadn't even crossed our minds. She also designed and provided the flowers for the wedding and they were absolutely gorgeous! She definitely cares about your event and does whatever it takes to make it perfect. Heather and her team took my daughter's vision and made it come to life even better than we could have imagined! More...

The Port City Team is fantastic!! We've worked with Heather and her team on several events and it's always an absolute delight. Her attention to detail is amazing and the coordination and planning results in everything just "magically" coming together. She cares deeply about the event being just right and it shows every time!

When I got engaged I originally thought I could get by without a wedding planner. The best decision I ever made was hiring Heather Healy to be my week of coordinator. She fully understood my vision. She gave me so many options to open my eyes even more into what I dreamed of all my life. Hurricane Florence hit Wilmington and devastated many businesses and people’s homes 5 weeks before my wedding. Heather always knew what to say to me to keep me calm even when she was going through the process of recovering from a hurricane. That is something you can’t put money on or ever be able to thank someone for. She truly put the bride before herself not just on the wedding day but throughout the entire engagement. The week of my wedding the forecast was 90 percent rain, wind, low temps on my wedding day planned for outside. She gave me plenty of time without rushing me to decide to bring in a tent and she made me stick to my guns about keeping the ceremony outside which is what I needed. She was so flexible in planning around the weather with me and the rentals. I could just relax all week knowing I had heather on my side even with the stress of a horrible forecast. The wedding turned out flawless with no rain and amazing temps, and the decorations were better than I could of ever imagined. Not one thing was forgotten or out of place! Heather is made for wedding planning. Give yourself the best engagaement gift and hire her! I promise you she will make you the happiest bride in the entire world! More...

I can't say enough good things about Heather. Initially when my husband and I began planning our wedding we had many ideas but had no idea where to even start. When we hired Heather to help us plan our big day, it was one of the best decisions and investments we made with planning our wedding. Heather was extremely patient and really took the time to listen to our ideas. She helped us to create our vision for our wedding and it was far more than I could have ever imagined. Like with any big event, I expected that there would be a few hiccups along the way, and there were. However, Heather ensured that everything continued to run smoothly and never stopped until we were satisfied. She also made all of the flower arrangements for our wedding and they were absolutely gorgeous and my bouquet was PERFECT! Heather is a very hard worker and you can tell she truly enjoys her job and wants her customers to be completely satisfied. I can honestly say that our wedding was by the best day of my life. Everything about our wedding completely exceeded my expectations of what our special day would be like. Months after our wedding, I still receive feedback from guests in regards to how beautiful the wedding was and how much fun everyone had and I have Heather to thank for that. I still find myself looking at all of the pictures and the decorations and the little details that made our wedding so personal, and I know that it wouldn’t have been perfect without Heather’s help.

Sweet. Organized. Great with Communication. Assertive. Creative. Passionate. I could keep going... Heather rescued me from myself with about a month until the wedding. I had convinced myself I didnt need a planner. Well, if youre reading this...you need one, and if she's available on your date...you need a Heather. This girl is a mighty little southern charm that can command a room and make your dream-day (appear) seamless. Heather was part time therapist, while wrangling our vendors, organizing chaos and executing our "Rain Plan." She has flexible packages available, and a whole bunch of really neat decorations and common necessities available to rent (in our case sparklers, flower girl basket...Last minute card box. That sort of thing). Our day was magical, and we couldnt have do it without Port City Event Planners. We More...

She was responsive to every email, text, and phone call and always treated us as if we were her only clients. Every time I mentioned that I was worried about something, Heather assured me it was her job to do the worrying. The process was fluid and the results were magnificent.

A 5 is no where near a high enough number to rate Heather and the rest of her team! Heather surpassed any Pinterest find, Magazine picture and dream I have ever had regarding my wedding day! She planned, designed and created the most incredible and jaw-dropping ceremony/reception for us....it brings tears to my eyes (happy tears :) ) thinking about our day and looking through the pictures :) Her attention to detail, creativity, patience and talent is astounding! She will devote 150% of herself, go above and beyond, lead an army of wedding family/friends/guests/vendors while fighting a migraine and smile the whole time! It's no wonder why she is so popular, loved and respected by her clients and fellow vendors. Personally, my husband and I feel like we can never thank her enough for what she and her team did for us. Do yourself a huge favor and book her for your wedding or next special occasion! More...

Making the decision to work with Port City Event Planners was easily one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. Heather was absolutely unbelievable. My husband and I live in Chapel Hill, and we were planning out wedding in Holden Beach. Heather, and Port City Event Planners, is located in Wilmington, NC which is between Chapel Hill and Holden beach, about 2.5 hours from our house and 45 min from Holden Beach. She made herself available to meet with us whenever we were in town, and even made several trips to Holden Beach to meet up with us and to visit the site of our wedding. She took my vision and made it a reality. She came for our rehearsal and got it taken care of in a matter of 20 min. Not only did she organize our entire wedding, she also provided of all of the flowers and put together the arrangements. She took care of everything on the day of the wedding so that all I had to worry about was getting ready and getting married. She was sweet and soft-spoken while simultaneously taking charge and directing everyone from the caterer to the rental agency. She was genuine and helpful and just a complete blessing. I can't imagine our wedding without her help and guidance along the way. Our wedding was the best day of my life and will always remember Heather and Port City Event Planners. More...
