About

Growing up as the oldest on a block full of girls, Laura started coordinating events at a young age. Whether it was organizing dress-up tea parties or lively, neighborhood-wide games of kickball, she planned the fun for all of the Hopper Terrace girls. As an adult, she continues to fulfill her passion for event coordination, gathering together friends and family for food, fun and celebration. Tea parties and kickball have matured into formal dinner parties, casual and entertaining game nights, chatty and relaxed weekend brunches and joyous holiday parties for groups both big and small.

While working full time as the Senior Event Coordinator and Planner at a premier loft space in New York City, Laura specialized in a great variety of events such as Weddings, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, Galas, Awards Dinners, Trade Shows, Sample Sales, Charity Auctions and Corporate Meetings. After several years, Laura decided to follow her passion for private events and branch out on her own, by forming Elegant Events by Laura.

Laura’s style and vision for making every event individual is what sets her apart. Her unique design and passion will transform your vision into a reality, to ensure that each and every event is a flawlessly executed representation of your dreams.

Laura and her team transformed our home into a beautiful, enchanting wedding venue for our son and his gorgeous bride last weekend! We never imagined our home could be such an amazing backdrop for such an elegant, joyous and incredibly fun event! She worked tirelessly, patiently, and so calmly to create amazing flower arrangements, soft and truly magical lighting with candles and tiny lights, and a myriad of other details that just seemed to appear from her hands. Truly breathtaking! I would highly recommend Elegant Events by Laura!!

Highly Recommend!!!

We hired Laura to be our Day-Of-Coordinator for our wedding. At first we were unsure of whether or not we would need such a thing, but we 10000% did and we are so glad that we had the chance to work with Laura and her team! Laura helped us create a schedule of events for the whole day and kept us on track. She worked closely with the other vendors and even made important phone calls on our behalf when we were busy and overwhelmed. My dress was a bit complicated but she knew exactly how to put it on/take it off/bustle etc. She kept me calm and at ease the whole day even when we were rushing to take pictures outside in 35 degrees and when I was nervous to walk down the aisle! Laura was responsive and easy to work with the whole time. We highly recommend her!!

Fantastic!

Laura is an incredible DOC and goes above and beyond. Not only did she pull the whole day together but she decorated the tables with lanterns and greenery and provided bouquets and boutonnieres. Also, Laura and her assistants helped me with my gown during pictures so I wouldn't step in puddles or get caught on anything. Finally, she did a great job making sure everything was delivered and was in its place for the wedding. She gave me my dream wedding. You must hire her!
