Captured my vision perfectly!
We utilized Laki Events & Design just for the flowers at our wedding--and they nailed it! The initial consultation was easy to set up. I sent Lara lots of inspo pictures, which she viewed and incorporated into her design. Lara listened to what I wanted and was very detailed in her proposal. She was easygoing, kind, and great to work with. There were no issues on the day of our wedding--all the flowers arrived on time and everything was stunning. Their designs were elegant, classy, and romantic--yet modern--and that's exactly what we had wanted. 10/10 would recommend Laki Events & Design for your wedding florals! -

Memorable team for all the right reasons!
Truly the best team I could have asked for!
I threw a wedding in my backyard this past November. I started out only wanting the 90 day planner but I upgraded to the partial planner and it was so worth it! Evin was so on top of it and answered all my questions and guided me through the whole process. She had a vendor for everything!
She was so wonderful the day of my whole family and my new husband fell in love with her. I also booked my florals with Laki Events. They were really able to help me stretch my budget and bring my vision to life! Everyone was so impressed. I will think about those flowers forever. My bouquet and my bridesmaids were so stunning and it exactly what I was looking for.
Let it be noted that my new husband helped write this review because he was so thankful to the Laki Team!
I recommend Laki to all my newly engaged friends! -

Bobbie Sent on 05/12/2022Amazing planners and absolutely gorgeous flowers
I had an elopement package from the Andaz Resort that included a bouquet and boutonniere from Laki. I ended up booking them as my planner and for the rest of the florals for the ceremony. My planner, Evin Wald, was absolutely incredible. I wasn't sure if I needed a planner since our guest list was so small (about 23 people), but I'm so glad she was my planner. She put together timeline, coordinated with all the vendors, and helped me with other extras that I hadn't thought of. She was quick to help answer all of my many questions, was super flexible and knowledgeable, and made sure everything ran smoothly during the ceremony. She seriously lowered my bridal anxiety, and I can't imagine trying to do everything without her.
And then the flowers. Oh my goodness. I'm not exaggerating to say they were the prettiest flowers I've ever seen. They exceeded my high expectations. The centerpieces, the arbor, the bouquet, and even my mom's wrist corsage were stunning. All of my guests were raving about how beautiful the flowers were. -

There will never be enough words to express our gratitude for Laki Events. We worked with Lara & Evin, and from the start they not only made us feel like family, but were extremely helpful in asking all of the right questions to help pull the ideas out from our heads and get them on paper. Throughout the entire time we worked with Laki, they were extremely responsive, knowledgeable (both about rentals as well as other various wedding related situations & best practices) and actionable. The moment we needed a new quote, or something adjustment, they'd reach out to the vendor asap to coordinate.
They brought our vision to life, and were so loving throughout the entire process. The day of our ceremony, they handed EVERYTHING. We didn't even have to think! They were on it, and it allowed us to just enjoy the day.
Again, we cannot say enough great things about Laki, but know that by working with them, you'll truly have the best day of your life! -

This review is super late, my wedding was march 2022, but we could not have been happier with Evin & Lara from Laki events! We used them for both partial planning and florals. They were absolutely incredible both leading up to and on the day of the wedding. My husband and I are both very organized people, but we were so impressed by Evin & Lara's handling of every little detail to make sure we were 100% happy. We never felt pressure to overspend, they did such an amazing job bringing our vision to life while staying within our budget. We had several other vendors comment to us that they were so great to work with and that "not all wedding planners are this good!". Definitely recommend Laki for both planning and florals, we're so glad we chose them! -

I actually don't even know where to start...the entire Laki team helped us create and execute the wedding of our dreams! To be honest, we were a little hesitant to hire a planner at first (bc we wanted to stay within our budget!), but we are SO happy we did. Our lead planner Brooke was an actual angel — she went above and beyond to make sure our day was beyond perfect. From the moment we met Lara and Brooke, we both felt heard. She totally understood our vision and was ready to take on the task. She is SO detail oriented, organized and supportive. Brooke even went as far as to offer pick up various rentals for us from various places and checked in multiple times just to see how we were feeling and ask if there was ANYTHING we needed. If you're planning a wedding, you know there are so many details that go into the day/the timeline/etc. Brooke and the Laki team HANDLED it. The day was perfection and we owe SO much to the entire Laki team. Brooke was an incredible advocate for us and we are so appreciative. I cannot recommend Laki (and our gal Brooke N.!) more! -

Samantha C. Sent on 04/06/2022The BEST Event Planners In Arizona
We hired Laki Events and Design for our destination wedding (we live in Chicago but our wedding was in Scottsdale, Arizona) and they were FABULOUS!
We interviewed quite a few of potential wedding planners before we came across Laki and it was clear from our very first Zoom call with Lara that they were best possible option.
Lara and Brooke were an absolute pleasure to work with every step of the way - they are professional, detail oriented and creative - everything you could want in an event planner.
They thought of absolutely everything, they solved problems before they happened and anticipated my every need as the bride. On top of everything else Brook and Lara are two of the kindest, most genuine women - they are so sweet and so fun to be around!
Our wedding weekend was absolutely perfect and so much of that was thanks to Lara and Brooke.
If you are a bride-to-be planning a wedding (or any event, for that matter) you MUST call Laki Events and Design - they are simply the BEST. -

Courtney Sent on 05/23/2021Incredible Team! Highly Recommend!
We hired Laki Events + Design for both our 30-day + day-of coordination in addition to our florals and décor for our April 2021 wedding in Scottsdale. Lara and team were recommended to us by our venue, and she did not disappoint! I wasn't the girl who knew exactly what she wanted for her wedding day, but I knew I wanted a clean and classic look. Lara helped bring this vision to life and because of her, the day went flawlessly. It was extremely advantageous to have our coordinator also handle florals and décor - the "one stop shop" was instrumental in making this a very easy process and as a bride, one less thing you have to worry about on your day!
I feel so lucky to have found Lara. She has a calming demeanor that radiates throughout the entire wedding process. and I would highly recommend to any family or friends. There was an unfortunate and unforeseen last minute change to our wedding that occurred 4 days prior to walking down the aisle. Our outdoor wedding had to move inside for dancing, something that would normally be just fine, but in the midst of a pandemic, we were hoping for a 100% outdoor event. Upon receiving the news that we had to move inside, Lara and her team seamlessly handled the situation both with my husband and I, and the venue. By no means was this an easy task, especially with hours to go until our wedding, but Lara handled it with grace and class. I know Lara worked extra hours that week to ensure things worked out and that my husband and I were happy. She transformed a space that 1-week before we hadn't even talked about nor planned for. Lara made some calls and ultimately, made things happen! Exactly what you want in your coordinator.
This last minute change required more of Lara and her team. This adjustment now required a third move of florals (from outdoor ceremony space to outdoor reception area to indoor band/dancing). She didn't charge us more, she never added more to our worry plate - she just made it happen and we are so grateful to her and her team.
By the end of our wedding, we were more than happy - WE WERE ECSTATIC. There are always things about your wedding day that you don't think about - like what happens at the end of the night with your stuff and décor? Well, that was not something I was thinking about, and as my husband and I walked into our room at the end of the evening, all of our belongings were carefully organized and placed in our room. Not something I expected, but was so pleasantly surprised and relieved that everything had made it's way to our room - especially the all the beautiful cards and your guest book! Just one of those intangible items that Laki Events + Design does without even having to ask the bride + groom - because we were having too much fun on the dance floor!
We are so grateful to have Lara help us through the last minute changes and make our wedding come to life. Our weekend was everything we wanted and none of that would have been possible without the amazing team at Laki Events + Design. If you're looking for a team that knows what they are doing, a team that is adaptable and able to make things work no matter what, and extremely friendly - I highly recommend hiring them! -

Nikki D. Sent on 11/21/2021Best wedding planners!
we worked with the laki team for our 4-day indian wedding at the andaz scottsdale. lara is a true partner and an exceptional wedding planner. she brought my very rough pinterest ideas to life by suggesting and working with the best vendors in the area, even through a pandemic and rescheduling!
the week of the wedding lara and her team handled every detail from transporting our parents around the resort to making sure we were fed to helping steam clothes and to making our guests feel welcome. i cannot thank lara and her team enough for everything they did -- our wedding wouldn't have happened without them. we love the laki team and recommend them for any event! -

Jennifer Sent on 05/28/2019Best think we did for our wedding!!!
OMG. I don’t even know where to start. Lara was simply amazing!!! She is SO SO organized, which was so important to me being an out of state bride. Everything from our initial consultation to the end of our wedding night went perfectly. Lara is very responsive, professional and most importantly so very kind! Our wedding day was crazy but I couldn’t even tell that it was because of how good she is at her job! We had a bunch of wedding day decor (from California) and had brought it over during our final venue walk through and she was so sweet to take it all for us and brought it on the wedding day. That had saved us so much time and stress of worrying about how to bring everything with us on the plane the week of our wedding. This was hands down the best thing we had purchased for our wedding! Lara took out ALL of the wedding day stress for us. I especially love how detailed the timelines were! There was a time for everything and it was amazing because it kept everyone and everything on schedule. Lara and I worked on our timelines the month of our wedding and she made it so incredibly easy for us. We really cannot thank you enough Lara! We love you!!
Brides: if you are like me, who love to plan your own wedding from start to finish but just need someone to make sure your day runs smoothly, Lara is the one for you! -

Kelcie W. Sent on 07/04/2019The most perfect day
Lara was absolutely amazing. IF anything went wrong on my wedding day, she handled it and I was not aware of it. I was nervous to pass the reigns on to someone else for such an important day, but Lara was incredible. Her timelines & organization skills were impeccable. She kept the rehearsal, ceremony, and reception on track while still being so calm, kind, & flexible. The cost of a coordinator seems like a lot, but Lara was worth every penny. She was SO responsive, prompt, and really took the time to make sure everything panned out like I had imagined it. Our families and bridal party (and myself!) were able to just enjoy the day and not worry about anything. I HIGHLY recommend a day of/ month of coordinator. And ABSOLUTELY recommend Lara and Laki Events. -

Best planner/florist- Hire them!
Lara, Rachel, and the rest of the Laki Events team were AMAZING to work with. They thought of every detail to make our day so special and magical! Lara was very responsive, timely, and so easy to work with. Laki Events helped with planning, created custom signs, helped run the rehearsal, and set up day-of details. Rachel did our floral, and the flowers were absolutely beautiful!!! Laki Events was recommended to me by two different friends that used the team at their weddings, and I would HIGHLY recommend them to any couple as well. -

Chelsea Sent on 06/12/2018Lara was amazing to work with and brought our vision to life! We also hired her for our floral and it was absolutely gorgeous! It made it so stress free to have Lara as the day of wedding coordinator and provide all of the floral! She also had a great business relationship with our photographer, Larissa Jean Photography, which was the icing on the cake! I recommend Laki Events for any bride wanting to be present and enjoy their wedding day.

Joanna Sent on 04/05/2018We are still speechless! Lara and Ken were outstanding. With a last minute dessert issue, they built a framed donut wall within 24 hours! Everything was perfect! Lara is an absolute sweetheart to work with. Everything was perfect! She is truly one of a kind and a friend for life. I found Lara through Instagram when I was living in Canada and from our first conversation, I knew we were in the best of hands. She made my vision come true! We will forever be grateful! Thank you xx -

Haley Sent on 01/10/2018My husband and I got married this past November and we rented a few signs including the pallet wall from Designs by Laki. Lara and her husband were amazing and so helpful. They came to set up the entire pallet wall the day before the wedding and designed the sign that was placed in the pallet wall. We also rented the no cell phone sign and the white linen for the arch. Lara also brought these over to the ceremony site and set them both up for us. My one regret of the entire wedding was that we did not look harder for a wedding planner and when we met Lara, we were about a month from the wedding and already had a planner booked. If you are looking for a day of coordinator/planner I would definitely recommend Lara!! She was so detailed and helpful with the few items for our wedding that I know she would make an amazing day of coordinator/planner.
