    Incredible!

    Laura is absolutely amazing! We had the busiest time of our lives leading up to our wedding, and she was able to keep us calm and on track. She is an incredible listener and we always felt heard, but she also had helpful advice and perspectives to help guide us. Laura went above and beyond so many times to ensure that our wedding was everything we had hoped for. Her communication is always timely and professional, and she is so kind! Several of our guests even commented on how kind she is. We truly could not recommend a better person to help coordinate a wedding!

    Hire Laura NOW - best decision we made!

    Its taken us a few weeks to find time to write Laura a review, mostly because her impact on our day was so profound that we wanted to make sure we devoted sufficient time to describing what an amazing job she did as our wedding planner. This review is based on Laura's "partial planning" services.

    Leading up to the wedding Laura was incredibly organized and was willing to help with anything and everything throughout the entire planning process. She helped us manage everything from our budget to the guest list, and provided tools to facilitate every bit of planning. Whenever we had problems getting in touch with a vendor, Laura would gladly take over. If we weren't sure how best to proceed with a certain component of the ceremony, Laura provided invaluable guidance from her years of past experience. Suffice it to say, Laura had us covered no matter what the situation.

    When our wedding week came around Laura ran the rehearsal dinner, she set up countless decorations for us, and she stayed until the final hours of our reception to clean up and put decorations away. What's more, she moved all of our gifts into our honeymoon cabin so that we didn't have to worry about tracking them down the next day. Laura's help made it possible for us and our families to enjoy the wedding day without worrying about anything.

    These are just a few short examples that we hope will convince you to book Laura as your wedding planner. She is not only great at what she does but is also an amazing person that is phenomenal to work with. As people that were skeptical about spending money on a wedding planner, let us be the first to tell you that Laura is worth every penny (plus a lot more). Do yourself a favor and book her services before you do anything else.

    Forever West Weddings and Events's reply:

    Oh my goodness, Jake, this review brought me to tears! I feel absolutely honored that the two of you chose me as your planner and invited me into your story as a couple. It was truly you and Natalie that made wedding planning so fun and such a breeze. Can't wait to see the two of you grow together as a married couple.

    Poised, Organized, Detail-Oriented, Wonderful…

    My Husband Kyler and I had the pleasure of working with Laura for our wedding! It was the best decision we could have made. She was such a pleasure to work with and thought of every detail possible during the planning process. We would have not had a successful wedding without Laura. Laura is thoughtful, organized, attentive to detail, poised, and so very kind. I was truly speechless when I walked into my reception area for the first time. She made everything I imagined come to life! Laura coordinated with all vendors prior to the wedding day, and provided them with the day of timeline to ensure the day of ran as smoothly as possible! This was so helpful knowing we did not need to take care of directing vendors the day of. The timeline she created was a life-saver. We had so much ease going to the day knowing what was happening and when. We received so many comments from our vendors and guests noticing how wonderful of job Laura was doing.
    We had a Wyoming weather event blow through our reception. Laura was so calm and reassuring through this small hiccup! Even when I wanted to end the wedding right there. ;) We were so very lucky to have Laura. I would 110% recommend her to anyone and everyone.

    Maddy! Thank you so much for taking the time to write such an incredibly detailed review. It honestly means the world to me. Your vision and decor were stunning, and I'm so happy I got to help you bring your wedding dreams to life! Can't wait to see you two grow together and to see what pottery Kyler creates next!

Owner / Lead Planner

Born in Richmond, Virginia, I grew up surrounded by southern women who seemed to have a natural flair for hosting and entertaining. Memories of my aunt's floral designs and grandmother's beautiful table settings still help inform my design aesthetic today. However, ever since I could ride a hobby horse, I've been enamored with the American West and moved to Wyoming at the first opportunity. After meeting my husband in Lander, we settled down in Sheridan and have been loving the wide open skies, mountains that soar straight out of the plains, and endless possibilities for adventure ever since.
