Best Wedding
We went to Erica with a vague idea of our dream wedding: something that combined our love of live music with an elegant, classy atmosphere. We had no clue where to start, but from our first meeting, Erica completely understood our vision. She asked insightful questions and offered brilliant ideas, helping us shape those rough concepts into the best wedding we could have imagined. Thanks to her, our wedding was unique and unforgettable. We had dueling pianos, exceptional vendors, and countless personalized touches that we never would have thought of on our own. The number of guests who came up to us afterward to say it was the best wedding they’d ever attended speaks volumes about her expertise and attention to detail. Erica handled so many of the details that we would have overlooked entirely, guiding us through each decision and even reviewing every contract we signed to ensure we were getting exactly what we wanted. We felt completely supported and confident at every step because we knew she had our backs. Choosing Erica as our planner was one of the best decisions we made (right after picking each other!). If you’re looking for someone who can turn your dreams into reality with total professionalism, creativity, and dedication, we highly recommend her. Thanks to Erica, we were able to fully enjoy our special day, knowing every last detail was in perfect hands.
Erica Thimsen was Top Notch!
Erica Thimsen is the perfect wedding planner. She was outstanding from our first meeting to the final clean up! I am the mother of the bride and my daughter lives out of town with the wedding being held in Huntsville. Erica was extremely flexible in meeting with us when Katie was in town. Erica got to know Katie and her fiance and got a feel for their vision and she helped create a perfect day! Based on our vision, Erica put together a list of top notch vendors and then worked with each of them and us to create a wonderful wedding and reception. Having Erica made everything so much easier and actually fun! For the Rehersal and the Wedding, she had everything running like clock work. She helped make my daughter's dream wedding a reality! I recommend Erica and Helping Hand Parties & Weddings fully! She was much more than a helping hand!
Best Decision Ever
Erica and her team are AMAZING! I knew we were in good hands from our very first meeting. From helping us put together a dream team of vendors, to keeping us on track though the entire planning process Erica knew exactly how to make our dream wedding come to life. She handled each and every challenge with patience and professionalism and made sure our big day was PERFECT. All of my vendors and wedding party were impressed that I was so calm, and it’s because I had absolute faith in Erica and her team. If you want your wedding day to be literally stress free, Helping Hand Parties & Weddings will get you there.
We highly recommend Helping Hand Parties!
Their dedication to clients and attention to detail make every wedding unique and special. We're always thrilled when one of their clients chooses Generation Tux to outfit them for their big day. We are incredibly grateful for our partnership with Erica and look forward to many more successful events together.
