Lance M. Sent on 09/18/2023Phenomenal 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!H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
Oh, My Goodness, Lance!!!!
T H A N K Y O U S O M U C H for not only taking the time to leave a review but also for "giving a damn" about it :)
It is always our joy to help our couples with their wedding planning journey, but it's more rewarding to see when they are surrounded by loved ones who deeply care about them as you do for A & E.
We are glad you also had a wonderful experience at the wedding, and we would not have wanted it any other way. Thank you for making our job easy!!
We hope we get to see you again soon, meanwhile, keep "giving a damn" about everything you do.
In Thankfulness,
Howard & Lorie

Green L. Sent on 04/06/2021Amazing, top-tier coordinator
My fiancé and I had the pleasure of meeting Lorie through one of the venues we toured in our area. Although we didn't end up working with H&L Lovely Creations in the end (due to my own budgetary constraints), Lorie was SO friendly, responsive, professional, and candid throughout our entire experience together. She was extremely knowledgable about potential vendors, venues, and the overall wedding planning experience. If you are searching for a dependable and trustworthy wedding coordinator, I would highly highly recommend reaching out to H&L Lovely Creations, you won't regret it!H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
Green!! Thank you so much for your beautiful words. We are so happy for you & Erik to soon become one and we loved serving you. We wish you a beautiful wedding day and a blessed marriage. We appreciate your trust. -

Best Wedding Planner!
Lorie is warm hearted person with a professional mind.
I was worried before having my first meeting with Lorie because she did not have a lot of reviews but after the first meeting I new Lorie was the one!
She is down to earth, she knows what she is doing and she was always there for me to help! even my venue manager complimented on her professionalism.
I was so thankful and felt lucky to have Lorie as my wedding planner because I know that I could have not done my ceremony without Lorie.
Thank you Loire for all your hard work and support!H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
Beautiful Areum, thank you for allowing us to be a part of your special day. We adore you and Jason and it was so wonderful to be there for you. Please let me know when you are back in CA. would love to meet you again.

Miguel V. Sent on 11/22/2021The BEST Wedding Coordinator!
If you are looking for a reliable, kind, responsive, and dedicated wedding coordinator then look no further. H&L Lovely Creations made our day stress free. Originally, my wife and I had decided to not move forward with Lorie because our budget didn't allow for it. After a couple months of stress trying to coordinate it ourselves, we came back to Lorie and it was one of the best decisions we made! Along the way we had a couple hiccups with our venue but she stayed composed and found alternatives for everything. Her work is worth every single cent and I have recommended her to friends and family. We are extremely grateful for Lorie & Howard - an amazing duo!H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
Awee!! Miggyy!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for your kind words. You and Giselle are seriously the most kind-hearted young people there are. We miss you and would love to catch up soon!

The Best Coordinator!
Where do I even begin? Life-saver! I was planning my husband’s 40th birthday dinner for about 20 guests in Palm Desert. For reference, we live in San Diego, I’m a working mom of 2. The minute I got off the phone with Lorie less than 4 weeks before the event, I instantly connected & immediately booked her. Beyond her sweet personality, Lorie was BEYOND professional & so accommodating - replying to my frantic texts & phone calls (I can be a huge ball of anxiety when planning events). She continued to guide me, offering kind, soothing words that “everything will be ok!” And you know what? Everything was more than OK! It was FANTASTIC! It went beyond my expectations & most importantly, my husband felt so celebrated and loved on his special day! Lorie quietly & swiftly took care of ALL outside matters and allowed me to immerse myself in the party and be with my guests whom all traveled by car or by plane! A sincere, heartfelt thank you to Lorie and Homer of H&L Lovely Creations for making pure magic happen! ❤️H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
Beautiful Sabrina!
THANK YOU for your special words. It was so fun to celebrate your husband's birthday. We appreciate you choosing us to do so. We enjoyed planning this milestone celebration with you and we look forward to doing it again.
Kindly,
Lorie & Howard -

Marcela Sent on 08/26/2021BEST Wedding Planner EVER!
H & L, what an incredible duo! I had the pleasure of meeting these two in a styled shoot and I knew that our paths would continue to cross in the future.
Although their bread & butter are weddings, Lorie & Harold were more than happy to help us with my bridal shower. The event truly would not have been the same without them. Not only are they extremely responsive, detail-oriented, and hard-working but they are also such sweethearts. Whenever stress and nerves got the best of me, Lorie always sent me the sweetest of messages reminding me that everything would work out and that she was there for me through it all. Brides out there, look no further for a planner!
My heart fills with joy just thinking about what blessing it was for fate to connect us together. We hired a planner but now have a lifelong friend.
Love you, Lori and Harold! Muchas gracias for everything!H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
My sweet Marci !!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for being so special and for allowing us to be a part of this day with you, Curtis and your loved ones. You hold a very dear and special spot in our hearts and we can't wait to see you again.

Mary H. Sent on 11/10/2021Literally the BEST!
Lorie and her team were absolutely incredible. She is a complete professional in every aspect. Here are some of the reasons I would recommend her:
1. Her response time was impeccable and I would receive a response from her within minutes saying she got my email or text. She would either respond immediately or let me know she received the message.
2. Through her contacts she helped arrange several special deals with vendors.
3. Her note taking skills on all preplanning talks, visits and décor planning were on point. When needed, she was able to reference her notes on specific dates of the meetings and refer back to what the venders said.
4. She didn’t miss anything in any vendor contracts while arranging the final timeline. She asked all vendors to leave me out of the communication so I was only presented with the final details.
5. She offered to bring breakfast the day of the wedding and picked up lunch and delivered it to the groomsman.
6. She saved us a $275 delivery fee when we questioned a vendors delivery price and had her team go pick up the decor instead.
7. She made me feel special by consistently asking if I needed anything the week of….multiple times.
8. When my bustle broke Lorie was there to sew back on buttons to the dress!
9. She negotiated with the venue on my behalf once we received the final bill. She noticed discrepancies on the bill. She followed up several times and received us a nice refund.
10. She was overall professional, friendly, delightful and accepted any form of communication that my mother and I wanted. She helped shape the final color schemes and offered great expertise. She certainly knows how to make someone feel special.
I would recommend Lorie and her team to anyone!H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
My beautiful Mary!!!
THANK YOU SO SO MUCH for these words. You and John (and the families) are so special to us, you have a piece of our hearts and we can't thank you enough for allowing us to be a part of your most special day.
We look forward to seeing you and John soon.

Megan C. Sent on 08/01/2021Best Decision You Will Ever Make!
Where to begin.. We were fortunate enough to have our paths cross with Lori and Harold about six months before our wedding and had no idea of the diamond we had come across. From helping us plan, arranging details, booking tastings, solidifying vendors and absolutely rocking our wedding day; Lori and her team are absolute superstars.
Your wedding day should be a special day for you to remember and one you should not be stressed about. Once we got to know Lori and her team, we had the utmost confidence in them and that meant the world. They exceeded every expectation possible and our wedding day was absolutely flawless.
If you have not booked H & L Lovely Creations yet, DO IT NOW! I promise it will be the best, and easiest decision you make for your wedding day!
We Love Lori and Harold and cannot recommend them enough!H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
Dear Sweet Megan!!
THANK YOU for your words!! You and William were SO wonderful to work with. We had so much fun planning your wedding and we will always remember it. Your friends and family were so kind and loving that they also made the night very special. You both are our favorite teachers!!!
Let's hang out soon!

Melissa Sent on 05/15/2021The most amazing team!
H&L Lovely Creations went above and beyond with coordinating our wedding. When my husband and I first went into the beginning stages of planning our wedding, we were under the impression that it would be a stressful process. Working with H&L made planning the complete opposite of stressful though. Lorie was so responsive to our messages and requests. She helped us through every step of the way, from touring our venue to meeting with our vendors, and all the way down to the big day. We couldn't be happier with the services she and her team provided. Our guests were also so fond of the team. They were such a delight to work with. Thank you, H&L Lovely Creations for making our special day so much more than what we could have imagined!H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
Melissa!
Thank YOU so much for your kind words, we loved working with you and Zach and it was a joy to make your wedding day go smooth. You both are such sweethearts that we can't thank you enough for allowing us to be a part of your big day.
May your marriage be always joyful as you both are.
Salud!

Lorie and Howard are basically part of the family now. They are an amazing couple that made us feel very comfortable on the day of our wedding, and all the previous days leading up to it. We couldn't have asked for better wedding planners. They made our day everything we could have dreamt of. We couldn't have done any of this without them. Thank you! -April & Jorge

I could not recommend Lorie more highly!
I have worked with her on many many occasions and have always been blown away by her attention to detail and her cool and calm approach to every situation.
These are all great qualities for any wedding planning service, but if you want someone kind, caring and compassionate, someone who always has something uplifting to say, Lorie is your girl! You can tell she genuinely cares about her colleagues and clients.H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
Sweet Michelle!! thank YOU so much for your words. It is always a blessing to work with you, we love your creations and talent and we love you girl. Our events couldn't be the same without your beautiful pieces. Thank you Thank you! -

Veronica M. Sent on 05/27/2019Everything was perfect :)
We had an small wedding at my parents backyard, we could not afford much but I wanted my special day to be unforgettable. When I first called H & L I was hesitant to share my budget because I felt a bit embarrassed, but after talking to Lorie and explaining her our limited budget situation, she listen and encouraged me and made me feel special and confident that it was my wedding day and it can be as beautiful as I want without spending a fortune. She went on and gave me few ideas on how the backyard can be decorated, she sent me few sketches and I was able to show them to my now husband and we made the decision and hired H & L. Best decision. Our wedding was beautiful and everyone enjoyed. We couldn't be happier with our small backyard wedding.H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
Veronica, Thank you so much for entrusting us with your vision and your very special day. Everything was beautiful and we enjoyed working with you. Congratulations! and we wish you both all the best. -

Lorie Sent on 08/30/2018I contacted H & L on Dec 2017 for my upcoming wedding on June 2018, they were very flexible and understanding. It was easy to talk to them, they are very friendly. I sent over few ideas for invitations, favors, signage and the decoration for my wedding and Lorie sent me a plan of everything I needed, she added some pictures and gave me options for paper, envelopes, materials, signage and banners that I was needing. Their pricing is very fair and the packages are affordable. I told her my wedding colors and she worked everything out around it, she was all the time in contact with me, making sure I approve the signs, size, text, colors, etc. My wedding day came and I could not be happier of all they did for us!! Our guest loved their name stones as favors, they said they'll put it on their fridge (Lorie added a magnet to each) so it made them special. THANKS H & L for making our day very special.
H & L Lovely Creations's reply:
Thank you very much for your words. We loved working with you and making your day as special as you. We were honored to be apart of such beautiful day. Wishing you and your husband all the best always. -
