    The Best Day Ever!!!

    If you’re looking for a wedding planner who delivers absolute perfection, Lauren is it. Our wedding at The Don CeSar was nothing short of incredible, and that’s entirely thanks to her and her team.

    From the very beginning, Lauren provided exceptional vendor recommendations—every single one exceeded our expectations and helped bring our vision to life flawlessly. But what truly set her apart was the way she and her team anticipated our needs before we even had to ask. Every time I *almost* thought of something—whether it was help securing my veil or wishing I had a drink while on the dance floor—someone was already there with the perfect solution. It felt effortless, seamless, and completely taken care of.

    Because of Lauren, we were able to be fully present and actually enjoy every moment of our wedding weekend. Not once did I feel stressed or overwhelmed—just relaxed, happy, and soaking it all in. That kind of experience is priceless.

    Afterwards, we all kept saying the same thing—we have genuinely never met anyone as exceptional at their job as Lauren and her team. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to execute everything flawlessly are truly unmatched.

    Everything was absolutely perfect, and we’ll cherish those memories forever. If you want a truly stress-free wedding with a planner who goes above and beyond in every possible way, Lauren and MDP Events is the one.

    Lauren is the absolute best!!

    Genuinely I don’t know where to begin. If you think you don’t need a planner, you do. And you probably should get the full package. Lauren literally made my wedding dreams come true. I had booked a venue already and knew she had worked there before so I already trusted her with my life. I still don’t have words to articulate how thankful I am for her. Her patience with my numerous questions, her intense organization skills, and her ability to just understand exactly what you’re envisioning. I feel like I met a unicorn with her. She kept me on track for the entire year and a half of planning and made sure every deadline was met and we had every vendor ticked and tied. She was always responsive whenever I had a random question and we would be in constant email communication which as a stressed out bride, I really appreciated. Leading up to the wedding day was another level. She knew exactly what I wanted the wedding to look like and I knew she was going to achieve it but she truly went above and beyond. It wasn’t out of my Pinterest board it was 100x better than Pinterest. On the day of she was the biggest stress reliever and just such a positive reinforcement. Her and her team especially, they even helped me bustle my dress and make sure everything was perfect for me. I cannot recommend her enough. She made the wedding truly what it was. Everyone needs a Lauren.

    Created a perfect and seamless day!

    I cannot recommend Lauren enough!! She is kind, professional, detail oriented, organized, and so fun to work with! She made Robert and I feel so special on our wedding day as she worked to make every moment perfect (which it was). We truly felt like royalty on our wedding day. And Lauren was also just a joy to be around and felt like we were old friends having fun throughout the day. I have 0 complaints with my whole wedding day, which was surprising because I thought at least one thing would go wrong, but Lauren handled everything so wonderfully that the entire day felt seamless and effortless for Robert and me. Lauren gave us the ability to be worry-free and just enjoy our wedding day. Our day was nothing but love and happiness and we owe that to Lauren orchestrating every detail!

    Simply Amazing

    We couldn’t have asked for more from our wedding planner, Lauren Gertz of MDPEvents. Lauren was so professional, very knowledgeable, and so easy to work with during our entire wedding planning and wedding day. Lauren is an amazing communicator and never hesitates to provide her experienced advice. She made our wedding day flow exactly how we had requested and we were blown away with how she was in the background taking care of the entire event; without interruption. There was never a pause in her service and her talent is so impressive. We highly recommend Lauren - MDPEvents.

    Creme de le Creme

    What could I possibly not like about this business? Just meet the people that surround MDP events and you will understand what I mean. That's how you know you picked the right team, by the people around them! MDP events is the best because the best say they are and thats exactly what you CAN expect when working with Lauren and her loyal team of 'wedding air "extraordinaries"' ; ) . Being a covid bride myself, I had the opportunity of being apart of one of MDP events styled shoots and if I could go back in time to my wedding, it was the best day. However, I honestly could say humbly that the ONLY thing I wish was different (even covid interfering itself) was I would have wished to have met Lauren sooner. My how things would have been different if she was there. If you ever questioned do I or do I not hire a planner, or did you decide already? Are you are looking for quality and crisp execution? Just see for yourself, MDP Events IS THE team you've been searching for.

    A DREAM come true!

    Lauren and team handled everything, and I am eternally grateful because it was genuinely the best weekend of my life! Lauren made herself available to us whenever we had a question at literally ANY time. The customer service that she showed us was really amazing. On the day of she made sure everything went smoothly, nothing was out of place and it was exactly how I dreamed it would look. Everything was a dream fairytale all because of Lauren! :)

    Exceeded our Expectations

    Lauren of MDP events is amazing! She helped my fiancé (now husband!) and I throw together a wedding rather quickly after cancelling our original plans due to covid. Lauren helped me plan my wedding from NY. With just a bit of information Lauren knew exactly what I was looking for and who to contact. Every suggestion of vendors along the way was top notch and was more than amazing day of. Lauren by far exceeded our expectations especially the day of the wedding- her being there and being so on top of things really allowed us not have to worry about a thing. I truly feel I got to enjoy every minute of my wedding. I 1000% am so glad to have found and worked with Lauren and would highly recommend MDP events to anyone in the Sarasota area!

    A detail master

    She made perfection happen! Lauren was a smiling, receptive, and professional guiding force since we first met her. She was fantastic – so organized and helpful. She did not disappoint! From the inception, she was attentive to our needs and timely in her responses to us. Never did we see her without a smile, and her patience is to be commended, as well as her knowledge of the industry. She truly went above and beyond She is a detail master, and we couldn’t be happier!

    Absolute Dream to Work With

    Lauren's attention to detail, timeliness, and creative input made this entire process SO easy and seamless – I literally couldn’t have done it without her. I have told anybody that has asked, “What’s your event coordinator like?” – “She is an ABSOLUTE DREAM!” Our wedding is something we will always remember and we were lucky to have her with us along the way! Spot on in EVERY way with EVERY detail! She is the best!

    Fantastic experience

    Lauren was fantastic and went above and beyond. Lauren made herself available to us whenever we had a question. Her friendly and cheerful demeanor was such a pleasure to work with and made our day flawless and memorable! We wanted to try our exact wedding meal before the big day and Lauren had everything packaged up for us to have at our home. The customer service that she showed us was really amazing. On the day of she made sure everything went smoothly. Nothing was out of place and it was exactly how I imagined it to look. It truly was beyond anything I could have imagined and I never would have been able to do it without her!!
