Tammy Lee- Papia from HeavenLee Weddings is exceptional. Tammy provided day of coordination as well as with helping with designing the décor part. Tammy is so organized and detail oriented. She met with us in person numerous times, spent time getting to know us and always responded to emails,calls right away. Tammy helped us design the ceremony and reception décor using our visions,making it a truly beautiful wedding, and was always on top of every detail. She put me at ease with how knowledgable she was, having amazing vendor recommendations, always calming my nerves. We had discussed every detail of the décor together and she thought of everything,keeping our style and taste in mind. Tammy made detailed “day of"schedules for the guys and ladies which was amazingly helpful, gave everyone involved in our wedding an hour by hour update of where they needed to be and took the pressure off of me having to worry about everyone being on time. She handed these out at the rehearsal and... Read more ensured that everyone knew where they had to be. The day of coordination ,Tammy had a kit full of everything needed in case of an emergency. If there were any issues going on the day of our wedding, I certainly did not know about them and Tammy took care of them which truly left us with enjoying the magic of the day and making our wedding day truly perfect! Once we saw all of the décor that we had planned for the last year we were truly blown away because it was so gorgeous . Tammy provided me sanity and a peace of mind I could not find in anyone else as she just seemed to get along so well with me and my husband from our first meeting. The day after our wedding I told my husband that Tammy felt less like a wedding planner and more like part of our circle of family and friends.I would highly recommend Tammy and Heavenlee weddings. Tammy has the experience, knowledge , great relationships with venues in Buffalo,and is just truly a fantastic person in general..

Tammy was my wedding planner and there is only one word that described my experience with her -- amazing. The planning process was fun, exciting, and most importantly... comfortable (even going through 40 weeks of pregnancy and having a baby while planning our wedding). Tammy was there for every single detail from day one, all the way up to days after the wedding. She was not only our wedding planner, but she became our friend. We had the time of our lives and none of it would have happened without her help. She is simply amazing and I HIGHLY recommend her!

Tammy is phenomenal! We used Tammy's full planning and coordination services for our wedding and I must say that we have absolutely no regrets about it. Tammy is very responsive, always ahead of things, she provides constant follow up and responds to questions in full right away. As a bride who was planning a wedding from 2 hours away she genuinely put my heart at ease up unto the minute of our wedding day. Because of Tammy and her team, unlike many brides, I spent the morning of my day very relaxed. I did absolutely nothing the day of (no clean up, no coordination...nothing). Just before walking down the aisle I spent the last few minutes in our bridal suite relaxing and waiting to meet my groom. Tammy's day of coordination and professionalism is exceptional! The day of she came equipped with a kit full of everything, bobby pins, sewing kits, anything that you could think of. You don't think about these things until you need them, and it were these little things that made her so... Read more awesome. Throughout the coordination we had very detailed meetings and she was very thorough and clear of the things that she was taking care of and the things that she needed me to take care of. She provided very detailed schedules, including an hour by hour break down unique to everyone involved with your day which was handed out at our rehearsal. As far as value, I certainly do not think that you can put a price tag on the peace of mind that you have when you hire a planner and coordinator as great as Tammy. By the end of our wedding we did not feel like we hired a vendor but that we had another family member and friend. As far as planning and coordinating I think that Heavenlee Weddings is the best in the business, with seasoned experience and knowledge and great relationships with nearly every venue in Buffalo. Both my husband and I would definitely recommend Heavenlee Weddings to any bride-groom in need of a planner or coordinator.

Tammy is amazing! I would recommend her service to anyone I know getting married. She made the whole process so much more enjoyable and relaxing. Leading up to the wedding her knowledge and expertise were a life saver. She made great recommendations and really took on a lot of work that was difficult for us to do planning a wedding out of state. The day of everything was perfect, and if it wasn't, I never noticed because Tammy fixed it before anyone became the wiser. Having her there allowed me to really enjoy the day instead of worry about the little details. She put us in our wedding bubble and we got to stay there the whole day :) I cannot thank her enough!

you need her believe me she saved the day after the rental company bailed on me,great person keeps her cool awesome job

i was planning my wedding from across the country, and i had gotten most of the big items all set (venue, dress, theme, etc), but decided i wanted some professional help making sure everything came together on the day of. so i chose their budget bride package, which meant that i would work with an intern instead of tammy herself, and they would come in only a few weeks before the wedding. i could not believe the level of service i got for what i paid. after initially meeting with tammy, of course i was nervous about how an intern would match up. but my team (yes, team, not just one!) did an amazing job, met & far exceeded my expectations. They helped me work through all the thousands of little things that I never would have thought of. But where they really shined was on the day before the wedding & the wedding day. From the beginning, we had had multiple problems with the staff handling our reception, and on the day before our wedding, they called to tell us that they were not going... Read more to be able to have something we requested (a long time ago) ready for the reception. Before I had a complete meltdown, my mom got on the phone with our lead intern, and she said that she would be there all night if she had to to take care of it. She told us not to worry about it a second longer, that she was on top of it. I don’t think I talked directly to the reception people anymore after that, which in itself helped me to have a great wedding day! When other people dropped the ball, they were there to pick everything up and make sure that it all was flawless. And I can’t thank them enough for that, the fact that (a) it was no longer something I had to deal with, and (b) someone with expertise in event planning was handling it. Their day-of services were amazing. I didn't have to think about anything, they took over & made sure everyone did everything they were supposed to. I can’t possibly thank them enough for what they did, I would have been a huge mess without them!

Tammy provided an exceptional service. Her expertise in wedding planning kept everything running smoothly and allowed us to thoroughly enjoy the day with no worries. I highly recommend her. She will provide invaluable peace of mind for your special day.

Tammy and her team are great. We had an absolute perfect wedding day and it would not have been possible without Tammy. Everything was executed perfectly and even when a few unexpected issues came up, she solved the problem without me, my husband or our families even knowing there was a problem! She really is the best. I would recommend her over and over again!

My wedding day was everything I imagined it would be because of Tammy!! She made me feel like everything was taken care of and it felt like whenever I needed anything she appeared out of thin air to get me what I needed or to take care of what I was concerned about. It is 100% a must to have someone to help you out and take care of things for you on your wedding day so that everyone can relax and enjoy the day stress and worry free. Thank you Tammy for making our wedding day the best day of our lives.

Words cannot describe how AMAZING Tammy and her team are! We are from Chicago and were planning our wedding in the Buffalo area. We talked to about 6 wedding planners; we knew Tammy was perfect from our very first conversation! We had a couple tough requirements; we wanted an outdoor wedding preferably near water and more challenging, a venue that would allow our “girls”, two Labrador Retrievers that were our ring bearers. She had the perfect place in mind instantly, and it was more beautiful than we envisioned! If you are getting married, long distance or local, the absolute best investment in your special day is hiring a wedding planner, and not just any wedding planner, Tammy Lee-Papia! It would have been so overwhelming without Tammy, so many big details, little details, wow what a ton of work to plan a wedding. Tammy spent all the time we needed helping us hire and coordinate vendors, timelines, rehearsal, the day of it goes on and on, she handled it all! We were guest... Read mores at our own wedding!! Being in the business, she knows all the best vendors, Tammy helped us hire all of our vendors without expressing her own opinion, knowing it was our day and we needed to like them and be comfortable, she led us in the best direction all of our vendors were as fabulous as she is! We ran into an issue a couple of weeks before the wedding with the venue regarding our dogs, even though we had a written agreement with the venue specifically about our “girls”. Tammy handled it all for us, and our “girls” were part of our special day as it was planned from day one! She is a rock star! Tammy is professional, an absolute blast to work with, talented, creative, and great attention to detail. Tammy listened to what our vision was and created the most beautiful day for us. Thank you Tammy! If you are planning a wedding and want it to be everything you ever dreamed, then you need to hire Tammy Lee-Papia to deliver that for you!

Positive - They were very pleasant and nice to work with. When I had questions about the services Tammy and Sally both got back to me very quickly. I do like that because I was planning my wedding from out of town they took time to skype with me and the planner met with me twice before the wedding on weekends I was in town to go over what needed to be done the day of. They accommodated the day of with picking up anything on the way, to help us not have to run around. They also recommended a wonderful bartender (Mike) and I greatly appreciated the DJ they recommended - ToyBros The Negatives - I did expect a little more organization at the wedding. I was told by the planners that they were there so we didn't have to worry about anything and that was highly stressed that she wanted me and my family to enjoy ourselves. We all knew it was a lot of work since it was a venue where we had a lot of "do-it-yourself" amenities. But I think even tho Heavenly Weddings assured us we didn't hav... Read moree to be bothered with anything on the day of, it might have just been too big of job for just two planners. My father still had to do some running around to help the caterer's with getting some food heated- when I was doing photos I did see my dad panicking and running around and he had said he didn't know where the planners were. Unfortunately they also ended up putting the Vegan dinner trays I ordered out for appetizers for everyone so during dinner the 5 vegan guests were kinda left searching for food at dinner. I also had a antique pitcher for lemonade and ice tea out on a bench by the ceremony site. I mentioned to the planner the night before that the cups would be set out but if she could fill the pitchers with the beverages that were kept in the fridge we would be all set and unfortunately that was forgotten. And my last negative was that my cake topper that was supposed to have the very top set aside for our anniversary cake was served to guests.

We booked Heavenlee Weddings when we found out they could help us plan a helicopter wedding (we were married in a helicopter while flying over Niagara Falls). We are from out of state and it was nice to have someone else handling everything for us. There was nothing to worry about and everything was ready to go the day of. I highly recommend their services to anyone. Also the other vendors they worked with (flowers, photographer, etc..) were awesome. Very happy bride =)

Tammy was very helpful and informative from day 1. She gave us direction and helped us focus on the most important things at the appropriate times. She took the stress out of our wedding and made our day really special and perfect. She was also full of neat ideas and showed us several tasteful ways to save money. She knew the right vendors who gave us good deals. She is not pushy and allows you to make your own choices according to your budget with guidance.

I have no idea how Heavenlee weddings is getting these reviews. Maybe because I came from out of town? Maybe because I got married 1.5 hrs from her office? Maybe because I had most everything planned? I don't know. However, I do know The only thing I would change about my wedding was hiring... Whatever her name was. I asked for two things; that she makes my wedding pretty and keeps all of the events on time. Neither one happened. We did have to change the location of the wedding and go inside, so that complicated things. She left at 1900 the night before my wedding and my sisters went into action. They made my wedding beautiful that night. My wedding started at 1000am, Tammy showed up at 915am and walked around aimlessles. She didn't do anything. We didn't even have our rings when the judge asked!! One last gripe: We had a wine tour instead of a reception. Which is why I was hoping she could help with timing. Nope, she didn't get that right either. She seriously only gave me ... Read morea few ideas and drove to teh area twice for $3000. Yeap, should have done it on my own.
