About

On WeddingWire since 2024

Last update: October 2026

Helios Events & Entertainment is a wedding planning and event management company for couples who want their wedding to feel personal, well-organized, and genuinely enjoyable.

Our approach goes beyond simply showing up on the wedding day or even a couple of weeks before. We look at the full picture ahead of time, from timelines and vendor responsibilities to guest flow, venue logistics, setup, backup plans, and the small details that can easily be overlooked.

We work with couples at different stages of planning. Some have most of their vendors booked and need experienced Wedding Day Management. Others need help making decisions, sourcing vendors, working through logistics, refining their design, or deciding where their budget is best spent. We first understand your wedding, then recommend the level of support that actually makes sense for you.

Guest experience is also a big part of how we plan. We think beyond how the wedding looks and consider how it actually feels to attend, from clear transitions and comfortable timing to thoughtful seating, accessibility, and making sure guests always know what is happening next.

We love weddings because they bring people together, whether that is a traditional celebration, a multicultural wedding, an unconventional venue, an intimate dinner, or a full weekend of events.

We intentionally take on a very limited number of weddings and only one wedding per week, which our couples value the most, so each couple receives our full attention leading up to their day.

At the end of it all, we want your wedding to feel effortless to you, even when there is a lot happening behind the scenes. Our couples often tell us we thought of things they never would have considered, and that is exactly the level of care we aim to bring to every wedding.

For couples who have planned most of the wedding and want us to take over the final details, vendors, timeline, rehearsal, and wedding-day execution. - Starting at $1479 (for intimate weddings in one location).

  • Wedding Logistics & Production —Sometimes couples have their venue, some or all of their vendors, but need support with execution and fine tuning the details. This package is ideal for couples who need support with decor and sourcing rentals, and managing more moving pieces, where we take ownership of venue logistics, rentals, transportation, guest flow, setup plans, contingencies, and how everything comes together operationally. -Price assessed based on scope.

  • Comprehensive Planning + Venue scouting: For couples who want support from the very beginning. We help define your priorities, budget and guest needs, then research venues based on fit, pricing, inclusions and logistics. Because your venue influences almost every decision that follows, starting early helps us make sure the whole wedding works together and your budget is used thoughtfully. Once your venue is secured, we continue with full planning support through the wedding day. Starting price $5,867

Highly recommend

Helios Events Team handled everything behind the scenes while still making the day feel relaxed and natural. Our families and guests also commented on how organized and well run everything felt.
She is very direct, practical and solution-oriented, but also genuinely cares about how the wedding feels, not just whether everything happens on time. We would absolutely recommend Helios to couples who want someone they can truly trust with the bigger picture. She thinks about entertainment and how fun the event is as well as ensuring the design is cohesive.

High quality design, planning and efficiency!

Helia and her team from Helios Events and Entertainment coordinated our wedding this past weekend, and the results were incredible and beyond both our expectations. We went with a partial planning contract with Helios and through Helia’s guidance we planned a perfect wedding - we couldn't be more overjoyed with the results. Helia has a wealth of experience within the industry that takes her wedding design to the next level. Helia’s high standards and quality taste really helped us select our dream vendors, who did amazing work. She also offered very appreciated guidance on our decor, entertainment and itinerary.
Through Helia’s strong leadership skills, she collaborated incredibly well with all our vendors, helped us stay on schedule and stay calm throughout the whole process. Her attention to detail really elevated our wedding and added a lot of elements we would not have thought of ourselves. This really stood out to us when a lot of the feedback from our guests specifically referenced elements that Helia recommended or directly influenced.
She is a great advocate for her couples and is very patient and understanding throughout the entire planning process.

We highly recommend the incredible team from Helios Events and Entertainment to anyone looking to plan weddings or other events. Working with Helia means you will receive a very high quality and upscale function. Helia will most definitely help you elevate your event the way she did with ours. Thank you Helia and your assistants Elnaz and Lena for all your incredible work!

Made Our Wedding Day Seamless

We worked with Helia for our wedding, and she was incredibly organized and helpful throughout the process. She kept us on track with well-structured Google Docs that outlined all deadlines, which made planning much less stressful. She also played a key role in helping us find our vendors and set up multiple meetings to go over details, ensuring nothing was overlooked. On the wedding day itself, she went above and beyond to make everything run seamlessly, which allowed us to fully enjoy the day without worrying about logistics. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and detail-oriented wedding planner.

My daughter’s wedding

My daughter and her husband chose Helios for their wedding. Helios not only made their dream wedding to reality but also they made the best day of my life too. No question that being at your kid's wedding is any parent's wish, and so is mine too. Helios made my daughter’s wedding full of love and passion. Despite her time management and all the decoration, flower arrangement, setting and food what was amazing about Helios's service was her ideas to engage the guests. Every time that I looked at our guest's faces I could say that they enjoying their time. There was a thought behind every single entertainment and aspect of that night. The most valuable point about Helios for me as a mother of the bride was how she could understand my daughter's personality and her desires.
Thank you, Helios for your care and thoughtfulness during my daughter's wedding ❤️🙏

On budget, innovative and exceeding our expectations!

The Helios Events was a blessing to us. We had limited time and budget to make things happen for our wedding. And neither me nor my wife had the time or experience to manage everything and definitely needed someone to take over. Helia did an excellent job in making things happen for our wedding and extremely reduced our stress levels. To give an example and be more specific on an outstanding performance, I should highlight the innovative and surprising video that she made from my wife's parents with their wedding wishes to us; who couldn't make it to our wedding due to visa issues. This made our special night like an unforgettable dream coming true. Another example is on the budget management side, which my wife did not think that we could have flowers on the tables due to our budget limitations, but great to our astonishment she made it happen! All in all we do highly recommend Helios Events if you care about your special night and want to make sure that you are in good hands.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Hi, I’m Helia, and I’ll be your lead planner.

My background is in healthcare leadership and project management, so I’m used to managing complex situations, large teams and a lot of moving parts. That way of thinking naturally followed me into weddings.

I pay attention to the things that are easy to miss, like who is responsible for what, whether the timing actually works, how guests move through the day, and what happens if something doesn’t go exactly to plan.

Outside of planning, I DJ for fun and have a background in photography, so I also naturally notice the energy in a room, the flow of the evening, lighting, sightlines and the small visual details that shape the overall experience.

My goal is simple: you shouldn’t have to manage your own wedding while you’re trying to experience it.
