Beautiful Memories Created by the H & L Lovely Creations Team

Our experience with Lorie Lau and her team at H & L Lovely Creations was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we were introduced to Lorie through my husband’s mother, we felt blessed beyond measure. Lorie truly embodies the qualities of a fairy godmother, transforming our wedding day into a dream come true.

Lorie is not just a wedding planner; she is a sweet, caring, and a knowledgeable professional who listens attentively and acts with confidence. Her positivity and faith shine through in every interaction, making her not only a planner but also a source of unwavering support and encouragement. She is warm and goes above and beyond for her clients. When I was in distress at times during the planning phase, Lorie would stop whatever she was doing on her day and pray with me. I can't even count how many times she provided me with words of encouragement and inspiration when times were challenging. That goes beyond what colors to pick or what rentals to choose, she became our friend.

The aesthetic showcased on H&L Creations' website and social media captivated us from the start, and Lorie and her team delivered that and more on our wedding day. Lorie is a passionate artist dedicated to creating not just an event, but cherished memories that will forever be in our hearts. Throughout the planning process, Lorie's experience and expertise were evident. She guided us through every decision with wisdom and insight, ensuring that every detail was perfect. On the day of the wedding, Lorie and her team orchestrated everything flawlessly, allowing me and my husband to remain calm and fully be present in the moment.

Lorie’s team, especially Marcie, played integral roles in ensuring everything ran smoothly. Marcie’s attentiveness and anticipation of my needs were remarkable; she truly felt like a fairy godmother’s devoted companion. Her presence from morning preparations to the reception was invaluable, providing both practical assistance and emotional support. She was by my side all day - from getting ready to getting me to the reception. Marcie had whatever I needed ready even before the words came out of my mouth. It was as if she was reading my mind -- always two steps ahead of me! Just like Lorie, she provided support and warmth on such a big day! From a lip gloss touch up, to holding my bouquet, to looking into my eyes and helping me breath right before I walked down the aisle.

Our wedding day was a vision realized: from the heavenly floral arrangements at the ceremony to the elegant and intimate reception setting - soft, feminine, classic, and simple. Lorie made a simple vision look elegant and intimate - just what we wanted. Her ability to transform our vision into reality exceeded our expectations, leaving us profoundly grateful.

In conclusion, Lorie Lau and H & L Lovely Creations are not just wedding planners; they are dream-makers and friends. Lorie’s dedication, warmth, and attention to detail make her stand out in the wedding industry. We feel honored to have had Lorie and her team by our side, and we cannot thank them enough for making our wedding day truly magical.

Phenomenal Wedding Planner Who Actually Gives a Damn!

I recently had the privilege of being the best man at a wedding Lorie helped plan and bring to life.

Over the years, I've taken on the role of best man and groomsman at several weddings. But never before have I felt compelled to write a review for a wedding planner—until now.

Yesterday, I was dining at a restaurant when a poster caught my attention. Printed in bold letters, it read: “GIVE A DAMN”. I immediately thought of Lorie. Even though the wedding was a couple of days ago, the memories of Lorie truly "giving a damn" remain in my mind.

If you're on the hunt for a wedding planner who genuinely invests in your big day as much as you do, Lorie is your person. Her dedication and care are palpable.

On the wedding day, I arrived at the venue to find her already coordinating with vendors, guiding me, and ensuring everything was set. Throughout the rehearsal, Lorie diligently ensured that each of us knew our roles perfectly. Not once did I observe her being inattentive or distracted. With her hawk-eyed attention to detail, she made this the most seamless wedding I've ever attended.

As the night progressed, Lorie's commitment didn't wane. Far from stepping back to relax, she constantly updated me on the evening's schedule, right down to the final dishes to be served. And, at around 11 pm, as I was one of the last to leave, Lorie was still there, ensuring I had a great time.

But it wasn’t just Lorie. Her husband, Howard, was just as instrumental, just as involved, and just as caring!

I'm deeply grateful to both Lorie and Howard for making my brother's and his wife’s dream wedding a reality. Their genuine passion and "giving a damn" made all the difference. Thank you!
