    Best Planning Team!

    We worked with City & Terrace to book our wedding venue. Their Team was amazing in helping with negotiating with the venue in order to get the best deal and making sure that we did not overlook anything in the contract and asked the right questions on our call/visit. Lauren is also helping us stay on track by providing us with amazing checklists of when different items need to be booked including helping negotiate the room block contract!

    We would recommend their Team to anyone especially with their al la carte services! For us, it was the perfect way to get started with wedding planning and stay organized!

    Best in NYC!

    Lauren is an incredible planner. She helped us find the impossible: a larger venue in Manhattan, in the fall, on a Saturday, within our small budget! She has so much knowledge and is a great communicator. She is a true pro. I trust her a lot. She is thoughtful, committed, and professional.

    Couldn't have done it with out Lauren !


    I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional services provided by Lauren. Her expertise, organization, and support turned our special day into an unforgettable experience. From the very beginning, she was attentive, accommodating, and went above and beyond to ensure everything ran seamlessly.
    One of the standout moments that truly showcased their dedication happened when, in the midst of the whirlwind, I realized I had forgotten my vows at home. I was on the verge of a panic, but Lauren, being the incredible coordinator she is, with a calm demeanor and a reassuring smile, took charge. Without a moment's hesitation, she offered to retrieve my vows from my house, saving the day. This level of dedication and quick thinking truly amazed me and put my mind at ease during what could have been a stressful moment.
    Throughout the planning process, their organizational skills were unparalleled. Every detail was meticulously taken care of, from coordinating with vendors to creating a seamless timeline for the day. Their ability to keep everything on track allowed us to relax and fully enjoy our celebration, knowing that we were in capable hands.
    What stood out the most was their genuine passion for her work. It was evident that she truly cared about making our day perfect, and her enthusiasm was infectious. She listened to our ideas, offered valuable suggestions, and executed every aspect flawlessly. Her attention to detail ensured that the day unfolded beautifully, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
    Lauren not only met but exceeded our expectations. Her professionalism, patience, and kindness were apparent in every interaction. She made us feel like a top priority, easing our worries and allowing us to focus on the joy of the moment.
    Lauren and Ryan were an absolute dream team. Their dedication, expertise, and genuine love for what they do transformed our wedding day into a seamless, stress-free, and truly magical experience. We are forever grateful for their hard work and would wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone looking for a wedding planner or/and day of coordinator who not only meets expectations but surpasses them with flying colors. Thank you for making our day unforgettable!

    The BEST planners in NYC!

    City & Terrace planned my birthday party in NYC, and it was truly the most amazing party I have EVER been to! Lauren is a magical combination of SO FUN and also SO ORGANIZED and it all adds up to truly the best experience. She scoped out the cutest, vibiest cocktail bar with a private room for us to start the night, and then such a fun, dancey afterparty venue. I can't wait to hire Lauren and her team for more events in the future - I can't recommend them highly enough!!!

    Best in NYC!

    I hired City & Terrace to help me throw my significant other's birthday party in NYC, and it was perfect. Lauren is the most amazing planner and found the coolest cocktail bar for us to host it. They also designed all of the decor, hired a Michelin-rated pastry chef to make my gf's birthday cake, and helped us plan an after party. She is really a pro, and I would trust her team with any big celebration.

    Lauren and Ryan are the best!

    I worked with the City & Terrace team to plan my engagement and surprise engagement party that immediately followed. I don’t know what I would have done without them! The day turned out to be exactly what my fiance and I had always dreamed of.

    I told Lauren I wanted to propose in the Financial District and wanted a venue within walking distance, but thought I could just kind of figure it out on the fly. After having a quick call with Lauren, she introduced me to so many questions that I hadn’t considered!

    Lauren took that information from those questions and contacted local venues to make sure it met both my vision and needs for the day. We did a site-walk and pointed out all of the logistics of how the day would work.

    The day of the big question, Lauren was in communication with attendees of how the surprise was going to work and then with the venue to ensure everything was set up correctly.

    The day went smoothly and seamlessly from the location of the proposal to the venue to celebrate with our friends and family!

    With Lauren handling all of the logistics and details of how the day ran, I was able to be present in the moment to have one of the best days ever!

    We are currently working with City & Terrace to plan our wedding welcome party and rehearsal dinner so we can continue to be in the moment.

    I’m so excited to be working again with Lauren and City & Terrace and I’d recommend them for any type of event!

    City & Terrace Awesome!!

    We worked with the City & Terrace team to set-up a consultation 4-months before our wedding date. We were overwhelmed with all of the logistics. We wanted to customize print items and personal accessories to make them memorable, and we didn’t know where to start. There were also so many additional tasks to juggle, and it was worthwhile to get professional assistance from City & Terrace. They made the planning process much easier, helped up prioritize, and were very attentive to our needs and vision.


    Lauren guided us through a detailed process and helped us understand how specific deadlines are needed for each of those items along the way. After making a game plan, we felt much more at ease about what was needed leading into our big day. She was also conscientious of our budget and found the best ways to incorporate everything we hoped for. We would recommend City & Terrace to anyone, even if it is only for a consultation!! Lauren is really a master at her craft and was excellent at helping personalize our special day!

    Thoughtful and Attention to Detail

    couldn't be more excited that City & Terrace has opened as its own events company. Lauren previously planned several events for me across different locations in the USA, Europe, and Asia.

    Not only did she plan my destination wedding and international honeymoon, she recently planned a destination event in Greece. She was crucial in coordinating all of the flights, dinners, and activities throughout the entire trip. Every location was thoughtful, beautiful, and created lasting memories.

    I would hire City & Terrace again in a heartbeat and would definitely recommend for any wedding or social event planning.

    Amazing company, amazing time!

    City & Terrace planned the most amazing end of summer trip for some friends and me in Mykonos. It was one of the best trips I have ever taken! Lauren worked with the group (located in various locations across the USA) to coordinate everyone’s flights. She contacted various hotels to make sure we got the best deal and could all stay at the same place, which was centrally located to nightlife and the water.

    Every activity had the entire group in mind and was an amazing time. The views for the dinners and cocktail hours she got us were breathtaking. While each venue was booked near capacity, Lauren worked her magic with different vendors and got us amazing spots for the views.

    I cannot thank Lauren enough for how thoughtful she was in planning the getaway!

    Best planners, best time!

    City & Terrace Events are run by two of the most detail-oriented and precise people you'll ever meet. Every detail you could think -- and many you won't! -- will be handled with great depth and care. Their expertise and attention to detail are obvious within a few minutes of talking to them, and I'd trust Ryan and Lauren to plan any event.

    Better than I could have imagined

    City & Terrace’s owner planned an entire itinerary for my wife and me to celebrate our first wedding anniversary in NYC. We let Lauren know what major things in the city we needed to see and then let her go to work. Lauren booked a hotel in the area, booked front-row show tickets, and each different dinner reservation was at amazing restaurants! Each place was in different neighborhoods so we were able to get a sense of the local lives of New Yorkers! Cannot recommend City & Terrace highly enough. We felt so spoiled that I don’t think we ever want to plan our own event again!
