You know what can make or break your wedding? Having someone who is the “it” person to handle all the little details and catch the minor catastrophes before they happen. Just someone to be in charge that isn’t YOU on your wedding day. That’s why I love to work with one of the best Columbus OH wedding planners Courtney Heibel; owner and lead planner extraordinaire of Rooted Together wedding planning service. I asked her a few questions about her business and the wedding industry and here are her words of wisdom!
What makes the best Columbus OH wedding planners?
Most important factor in selecting wedding planners
“Connection. Your wedding planner becomes your go-to. They are your confidant, advisor, designer, all-things-wedding- expert, and a friend throughout one of the most stressful seasons of your life. You need to choose someone you feel safe with, and someone you trust has your best interests in mind. Someone who knows their stuff, and has connections and relationships within the industry that will benefit you and your partner.”
Courtney’s answer here really resonated with me because I am always on my soap-box about wanting to make sure I connect with you so I can make epic art on your most important day! I find it vitally important to make you feel at ease but also so that I am comfortable to be creative too. Those vibes are so important.
More about Rooted Together
I am going into my 8th wedding season in business. I launched my own company in January of 2020, months before Covid made us reimagine everything we knew about weddings & events. It was such a challenging start, but we were blessed with some amazing clients and it forced me to get creative and resourceful- and I’ve never looked back or doubted the path!
I keep busy with my kids and nonprofits events! I love getting out and exploring our city. Whether it’s drinks on the rooftop of Junto, a concert at Nationwide, or trip to COSI. I love exploring all Columbus has to offer.
What do you love most about your job?
Connecting with clients to bring their vision to life. I love getting to know our couples so well, that when I design their ideal wedding day by incorporating personalized details, textures and a timeless design, it seems so effortlessly them.
Favorite part of a wedding day?
“I love watching your partner make eyes with you at the end of the aisle for the first time. After spending months getting to know my clients and their dynamic, it’s lovely to witness such a raw, real moment between them. But that being said, a REAL close second are room reveals! Ugh! If our clients let me design their reception space- there is nothing better than the tears shed seeing that space come to life on wedding day. SUCH a rewarding moment!”

The last thing I asked Courtney was what her number one tip for you would be as you begin to plan your wedding!
“ Best tip would be to take your time and soak up the season. Enlist the help of a professional planner so you can truly enjoy your wedding day and not overwhelm your mom, friends or yourself day of. Not having a Columbus Oh wedding planner is the biggest regret for a reason! Take the time to find someone you connect with and reach out to us to see if we’re a good fit!”
