I searched for wedding planners online, I emailed a few planners and when Lauren responded to my email, something just told me this is our person! We met Lauren for a "meet and greet" late 2020 in a restaurant.
Lauren is a petite, blonde, pretty young lady - and as the saying goes "dynamite comes in small packages" this is exactly what you get with Lauren. She is highly experienced in the field, offers honest opinions and works according to what your budget expectations are. She is trustworthy, assertive, caring and funny! Lauren supported me during the uncertain time of the lockdown and while our president would address the nation on numerous occasions, Lauren would be with me the entire speech via WhatsApp as we listened to any new/adapted changes.
Once I explained to Lauren what I had in mind with décor etc. she created mood boards and from there I left everything in her hands, with every service provider she presented to us, it is was spot on with what we loved and envisioned our wedding to be. Lauren knew exactly what to do when, I never felt overwhelmed.
She checked in with me regularly and updated me on any new developments. She kept track of all our payments and the wedding was planned to the last detail. The weekend of the wedding, Lauren was there already on the Friday and early the Saturday morning. She checked in with me during the course of the day just to see how I am. She was there when I walked down the aisle up until the end of wedding.
When I saw wedding venue inside for the first time, it totally exceeded my expectations, I could not have asked for something more beautiful. The entire wedding planning was a breeze with Lauren. My family and friends could not compliment Lauren enough for what she has accomplished with this wedding!
After the wedding Lauren followed up with service providers. I felt at ease as Lauren was on top of everything "she's got your back" Lauren is a great person and amazing wedding planner! During this whole process she became a friend as well. I will recommend Lauren to everyone!
