An Incredible Planner!

Haylie from Heirloom Event Co. is an absolute dream to work with! Her communication, organization, and calm professionalism made the entire day flow effortlessly. As a fellow vendor, I truly appreciate her attention to detail and how she goes above and beyond to ensure every couple’s vision comes to life flawlessly.

When I used to think of wedding planners, I pictured the movie version — someone with a headset, barking orders, and obsessing over every tiny detail (I've never been married, so I literally had no idea what to expect!!) But oh boy, was I wrong. I’m not the type of bride who grew up pinning wedding ideas or dreaming about dresses. When I got engaged, I just knew I wanted to celebrate that year, especially since my parents have health challenges and I wanted them to be part of something truly special. But once you start planning a wedding, you realize how overwhelming it all is — the costs, the choices, the emotions. I’m a TV producer, so I know what it takes to plan a big event, but wedding planning is its own beast. It takes people like Haylie and Becca to make it all come to life. Becca, in particular, was like an extension of me. She was funny, caring, and endlessly patient. She offered thoughtful advice when I had no clue what I was doing, and she made sure everything ran smoothly even when I was emotionally overloaded. She’s also incredibly creative — she even hand-made beautiful pieces for me that made the day feel so personal. Haylie and Heirloom Event Co made sure my wedding wasn’t just organized, but deeply special. They’re not the stereotypical “crazy planners with headsets” — they’re a compassionate, talented team who balance professionalism with heart. They understand what matters most: letting you actually be present with your partner, your family, and your friends. My day was better than I could have ever imagined, and I’ll forever be grateful for them.

Haylie is beyond incredible. If you are looking for a coordinator, look no further. She went above and beyond for every detail and timeline for our special day. We honestly do not know what we would have done without her! We were looking for someone to completely be on top of the little and big things from the month leading up to and our final day. We did not have to worry about a single thing! We were so amazed by the attention to detail, complex relationships to handle, and great attitude Haylie had all around. I will ALWAYS recommend Haylie to anyone getting married. It makes all the difference and we would not have had it any other way!

My husband and I cannot recommend Haylie enough. Seriously – if you are getting married, do yourself a favor and book her. She made the entire wedding planning process so smooth and enjoyable. We were really able to enjoy our engagement because of her guidance and support – and that's a gift we will always treasure. Our wedding day was more beautiful than we ever could have imagined. Again, because everything had been planned so thoughtfully and meticulously, we were able to truly live every minute of the best day of our lives. We will always be so so grateful to her and will recommend her to every couple who gets engaged – and maybe even just random strangers on the street!

We lead with transparency, clear communication, and steady support. We review all contracts, guide you through every decision, and keep planning organized so you always feel informed, confident, and never overwhelmed.

Absolutely. Many of our couples don’t live in their wedding city. We offer flexible communication, detailed timelines, organized systems, and full vendor coordination so planning from afar feels easy and stress-free.

Couples typically book 12–18 months ahead, but our team has the experience and structure to support a variety of planning timelines. We’ve even orchestrated a 250-person wedding in six weeks, so feel free to reach out whenever your planning begins.

Our full-service package covers everything from reviewing contracts and managing vendors to building timelines and overseeing your wedding day start to finish. It’s ideal for couples who want full support throughout planning.

We begin by reviewing contracts and building a timeline. Six weeks out, we rejoin to finalize details, coordinate vendors, confirm logistics, and execute your wedding day from start to finish so everything runs smoothly.

Yes! In addition to serving Chicago, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, and Northwest Arkansas, we travel wherever your celebration takes you. We’ve planned weddings in DC, Boston, and internationally, and we’re happy to create a custom proposal for your location.

Yes. We’re with you from setup through the very last dance. Your celebration deserves a seamless ending, and our presence throughout the entire day ensures everything runs smoothly and exactly as you imagined.

We love working with budget-friendly brides just as much as luxury ones. Our motto is that you can have a beautiful, meaningful day without breaking the bank. We get creative—whether that means finding alternatives, sourcing cost-effective options, or connecting you with incredible local college musicians through the head of their department. Cello, harp, violin for $150 for 1 hour? We got it. We thrive on crafting smart, thoughtful solutions.

We keep planning organized with shared systems that every planner on our team can access. We maintain a detailed planning resources document that outlines your vendors, restrictions, food allergies, décor limitations, and more. Every detail is documented and updated, which is why our initial contract review is so important. Nothing gets missed, and everyone stays aligned from start to finish.

Of course. Whether we lead your rehearsal depends on your venue’s access rules, but if an on-site rehearsal isn’t possible, no problem—we do many day-of rehearsals. We make sure everyone knows where to stand, when to walk, and all the details needed so the ceremony feels seamless and confident.
