Do not think twice, you NEED Laura!

Our Wedding was absolute perfection! I always heard something will go wrong, just plan for it and let it slide. Everything was perfection! Laura was my rock solid. She went above and beyond down to every little detail I would have never thought of. I had a hard time explaining my vision and she made it come to life. She took more time than I ever expected with us and we made a new best friend! I had a vision of hanging glass globes on a piece of driftwood above our sweetheart table but had no idea how to make it happen. She told me "oh we can make it happen!" Sure enough, she didn't only make it happen, she found exactly what we needed and made it better than I had ever thought! I have been told over and over by many friends and family it was the best wedding they have been to. I really can not say enough good things about Laura's personality, devotion, and positive spirit. If you are looking for a flawless, beautiful wedding, someone to spend time with you, listen to your thoughts, put their whole heart into your big day, don't think twice! She will blow your expectations away! I am beyond blessed to have had Laura a part of our big day! Only one thing was missing! We didn't get a picture together! Add to your photographers photo list a picture with the second most important person on your big day! I owe her my everything! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

The best out there!

Laura truly goes above and beyond for her clients. Her attention to detail was impeccable. She thinks of all the right questions in advance so you don't have to worry about answering them the day of the wedding.

We went to a number of other weddings and the coordinator was nowhere to be found the day of the wedding. That is not the case with Laura! She is always by your side when you need her the most or busy taking care of things when you are enjoying the reception. Always on her feet!

Most importantly, my parents were over THE MOON at how smooth it went, all thanks to her. Her advice was incredibly helpful at every step along the way. Everything went off without a hitch for us and we were able to have one of the greatest nights of our lives!

Best decision for our wedding was hiring Laura!!

Hiring Laura was the best decision we made for our wedding! She was so attentive, flexible, and responsive. We literally didn't have to worry about a single thing on the day. She did a great job at setting up the decoration and made our vision come to life. She made everything run so smoothly - if there was an issue, we weren't even made aware of it because she was able to quickly solve it. We were able to truly enjoy the wedding day thanks to Laura! Highly recommend you hire her!

Hire Laura for a Stress-Free Wedding Day!

We hired Laura as our day of coordinator. Several months before the wedding she sent us an info sheet to complete before the walk through a month before the wedding. I was a bit overwhelmed with all of the questions. However, it made the walk through so much easier. I walked into that meeting super overwhelmed, but walked out of it feeling like we could have the wedding tomorrow. We had a pretty large wedding party and Laura was great at wrangling them during the rehearsal and providing helpful tips for the next day. She did a great job of decorating the venue with very little instructions and very skillfully repurposed the flowers from the ceremony in the reception space. Highly recommend!

Hire Laura!!!

If you are considering a full time wedding planner, partial planner, or day-of coordinator, look no further - Laura is the best!! We had an absolutely wonderful experience with her as our DOC. She did an outstanding job setting up our venue better than we could have imagined, keeping us on schedule, dealing with a difficult vendor —- and doing it all with a smile. She is calm, cool, and collected (exactly what you want!) and we’ll always be grateful for her kindness to our friends and family. Thank you, Laura!!!

100% recommend

We used Laura as our day of coordinator and it was such a great decision. Laura was so sweet and made everything so simple. Although she was a day of coordinator she made herself available for so many calls and questions. She put me at ease about so many decisions during the planning period. She made sure the rehearsal was quick, organized, and thorough. The day of the wedding went so smoothly and I was so calm thanks to her presence and assistance. I would 100% recommend Laura to everyone!

A calming and sweet presence on our wedding day

Laura is as sweet as sugar! I could tell from my first phone call with her that she was going to be a very calming presence on the day of our event—something I needed very much—as our family isn’t particularly calm! We hired Laura for day-of coordination services. On the day of our event, Laura knew exactly what needed to be done. She helped tremendously with extra décor and getting photos and flowers and plenty of other items set up for us. She gave us several GREAT tips and tricks throughout the process—[if you want to know exactly what, you’ll have to hire her!]---which saved us hundreds of dollars and gave our décor some serious impact. She and our venue coordinator somehow managed to have us all packed up and ready to go within an hour of ending our event. A true miracle when you’re exhausted and ready to collapse. My only regret is that I didn’t get to work with her more throughout this process to get to know her better! I recommend Laura without hesitation.

Laura is wonderful!

Selecting Laura as our Day of Coordinator was one of the best decisions we made! Our wedding was postponed due to the pandemic and Laura was so flexible when we needed to change our date. I am an event planner, so it was important to have someone manage our day of details who was organized and easy to work with. Laura was both. She has such a calming demeanor you just know she's got everything under control. And her smile is infectious! Our 3 yr old nephew crashed hard after the ceremony and Laura was keeping an eye over him while he napped (totally not in the job description!). If I could make one suggestion, it would be let Laura do her thing! I had no preference where or how things were set up, and really just told Laura to do what she thought was best and I'm so glad I did! She's a true professional, and liked by all of our vendors. Highly recommend!

100% Recommend, Zero Reservations!

Laura was amazing! She responded to emails extremely quickly, was super organized both during the run-up to the wedding and during the event. We hired her as a day-of coordinator only but she was still really helpful in the run-up to the wedding (gave recommendations on vendors and decor, etc.). We also rented some items for Laura for the event (shutters to display escort cards, a ladder for hanging greenery, a s'mores display, etc.) and they were all great value and SO convenient. We barely saw Laura during the event (a very good thing as she was behind the scenes making everything run 100% perfectly), and she helped us nail the rehearsal and the decorations. We 100% recommend Laura with zero reservations!

Forever grateful!

Laura did an amazing job as our day of wedding coordinator on the hottest of days! She knew exactly what to do to manage the extreme weather while taking care of every detail of setting up the ceremony and reception. Her energy, experience, and professionalism ensured the day unfolded just as my daughter had envisioned. As the mother of the bride, I am forever grateful that both my daughter and I were able to enjoy the entire day without worrying about anything! I highly recommend Laura and everyone who had the pleasure of meeting Laura and watching her in action at our wedding had nothing but praise for her.
