Hands down, Lauren was the best vendor we worked with for our wedding. Her incredible attention to detail, time line and organization all wrapped up in a warm and friendly person made our wedding day stress free! We worked with her for day of coordination which really means "month of" to Lauren. She helped with last minute vendor recommendations, dealing with all of the vendor coordination and creating an amazingly detailed time line for the bridal party. Lauren really did make me feel like I didn't have to worry about ANYTHING that day besides showing up. She did all of the confirmations, all of the payments, and made sure everything and everyone was exactly where and when they needed to be. Worth every penny!!!!!!

My wedding day was perfect and I think that is due in large to Lauren. I contacted her about 3 weeks before my wedding to do day of coordination. She met with me the next day and proceeded to create a comprehensive timeline that had everything, and I do mean everything in it. It gave me such a sense of peace to see that everything was done and ready. She contacted all my vendors and confirmed them for me, once again giving me peace of mind. She even finished off the last couple of items on my to do list so I could enjoy my rehearsal! When the big day came, I was completely calm because I knew Lauren would take care of anything that popped. She even went as far as to take the extra flowers I had and use them to add some additional decoration to the reception. I couldn't have asked for more in a day of coordinator.

Having a wedding at our home provided some unique challenges so we knew right away that we would need an event planner if we were to relax and enjoy any part of the process. We interviewed several people and knew within the first 10 minutes that Lauren was our choice. Her experience, gentle nature and enviable organizational skills confirmed to us that we were in excellent hands. From the day she becomes part of your team, you are gently guided into each phase of planning. Once you set the vision for how you would like your day to be, she will give you tried and true vender choices and help to keep you on schedule so that when you make a decision on a vender, they will still be available to you! Our event called for about 13 different venders. We came into the process with two names that we would like to use. Lauren provided the rest of the team, often giving us more than one choice to interview before we signed a contract. Once our team was booked, she kept track of each vender's forms and payment schedule. She was also the initial point of contact for them so instead for receiving emails and phone calls from 13 different
companies, Lauren would be our liasan to communicate our wishes and desires. She was also an excellent resource for ideas to make your day unique and special by suggesting little touches that our guests noticed right away. On wedding day, we were able to focus on our daughter, our family and our guests. We had as much fun as they did because all the little glitches were handled before we were even aware of them. Lauren kept the event on schedule and never have I seen a professional work as hard as she did to make our day an amazing memory.

Breathe Event Planning did just an amazing job for my wedding! I honestly know that my wedding day was flawless due to Lauren and Alison!!!! The planning help prior to the wedding allowed me to stay on task, which was great, especially the 6 weeks prior to the big day because things start to become so hectic! They provided awesome time lines and were always available if I needed them. They were so understanding throughout the planning process, even when I felt overwhelmed. I felt organized because Breathe Event Planning keeps you updated on upcoming payments, a list of things to accomplish, the flow of the wedding (exactly the way we had discussed), and good suggestions throughout. The day of my wedding, I felt very relaxed and I trusted that Alison would do a fabulous job organizing and taking care of issues. I am not sure if there were even issues because she did such a wonderful job with everything!!!!! My husband and I had the most amazing day of our lives and we owe a lot of that to Lauren and Alison! My husband even made a comment on how wonderful it was to have Alison be a part of our day and how helpful she was to keep to the schedule of the ceremony and the reception! We both recognize what a beautiful job she did and tremendously thank her! I would recommend Breathe Event Planning without question to anyone. They are extremely professional and accommodating! I got married in VA and live in CA....there was never any issue with communication. They are outstanding!!!! Thanks for all of your hard work!

Lauren was a joy to work with from start to finish. We hired her for partial wedding planning services, including day of coordination. We met with Lauren about once a month from about 11 months before the wedding to right before the big day. She was enthusiastic about all of my ideas, and helped reign them in a bit when needed. She set up a working timeline for us as well as a budget, which was very helpful. As an extreme type A personality, I usually like to have complete control over things, but was not worried at all about leaving everything in Lauren's hands the day of the wedding. Her timelines for the "wedding week" could not have been better, and left my mind at ease. All of my bridesmaids commented continuously on how smooth everything ran for them, and how nice it was to be able to enjoy the wedding as a bridesmaid too, without worrying about things that had to be done. The only small bump in our day came when there was a major traffic accident on route 7, delaying some of the shuttles, which of course no one could control. When there was only 1 person missing (my fiance's aunt) Lauren asked my mom if she wanted to wait, and my mom said yes. Lauren had absolutely no problem postponing things to wait for the aunt's arrival. Guests simply enjoyed more drinks and mingling, and it was handled very professionally. Lauren worked with all of my vendors exceptionally well.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Lauren and her services. I would highly, highly reccommend her to anyone getting married - she helped make our day amazing!

For confess I initially thought we don't need a wedding planner, I'm French and in France we don't have this service but the day progressed I was more stressed and this is my stepmother who took the decision for Lauren and I could never thank her enough for all the help, comfort that it has made so far, discretion, always mindful of everything, helpfull or course, JE L'ADORE ! Thank you thank you thank you
I can not answer for the price because this is my stepmother who is dealing with this part
I RECOMMAND HER FOR SURE !!!!!!

How do you offer a review of the woman who 'saved' your wedding? Lauren was so invaluable during the entire wedding planning time. Her calm and very knowledgeable demeanor was a wonderful oasis in the last weeks running up to the wedding, where I started a new job that took me out of town and my fiancee got pneumonia! At 7pm the night before the wedding, Lauren helped make sure that my programs were printed and ready for the wedding day and then took some of the remaining 'to do' list from me so that I could enjoy my rehearsal dinner. She went well and above the call of duty and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help in planning her wedding.

My husband and I would have never pulled off our wedding without Lauren! A true professional to the core! She was never pushy and I truly appreciated the fact that she dispensed creative advice only after I asked. Lauren is great with email - which is my only mode of communication! During the wedding process, we corresponded almost daily and she always kept a calm and sweet disposition when I asked my silly questions.

She handled our 10+ vendors with such grace on the day of, so much so, that our guests and family could not stop RAVING about her. I was perfectly relaxed on my wedding day because I knew everything was in GREAT hands. Her company name says it all... when you work with Lauren, you're able to "Breathe".

i could not have made it through the planning stages without Lauren of Breathe Event Planning! Lauren kept me calm and stress-free. she was always quck to respond to all my emails and questions! i used her for day-of coordination, which actually started a month prior to the wedding day. she handled all the last minute commuications with the vendors and made sure all the little details were perfect. on the day-of, she and her assistant kept the event moving and i didn't have to worry about a thing! highly recommend!

If I had to be grateful for one of my vendors, I was most grateful to Lauren. My husband and I will never forget the amount of work and effort she put into our wedding in order to make it perfect. The wedding day went flawless without one single thing going wrong. She is not like other typical wedding planners where you find some arrogant strong personality that will overtake the event. She is kind and sweet tempered, and will keep you calm and collected. She does not impose her opinions on you and makes sure that you get exactly what you want. I cannot express the amount of gratitude that my husband and I feel for her. You cannot go wrong with her services, and you will be most grateful to her at the end of the day. You'll see... trust me. Anything and everything that goes perfectly at your wedding will be due to her efforts. My sister and friends have all used her services, and we all share the same sentiments.
