    Wonderful!

    Lauren was fantastic! From our very first meeting we knew without a doubt we were in the best hands! She made our day so easy and seamless, without us having to worry about anything. Here years of experience shown through from her ability to connect us to top-line vendors. To her opinion and perspective about the day. From begin to end she was the perfect professional. We could haven’t have had a better day, all thanks to Lauren!

    Lauren is amazing!

    We’ve finally caught up on sleep and settled back in up here in Wisconsin after the wedding! Haha!
    We just wanted to say THANK YOU so much for all the hard work you put in to make our wedding day amazing. Everything went smoothly for us and was PERFECT. So many people afterwards have asked who you were and were bragging on how well you did with everything. It’s true! You did awesome! I will always recommend you to my friends and family and friends in the Nashville area and in TN. I remember when we met working at TN Chic and you told me how you wanted to be a wedding coordinator and ever since then I’ve always said you were going to be the first person I asked to be apart of my wedding day if you were a wedding coordinator by the time I got married.. thank goodness you were and were available! :) We seriously can’t thank you enough for all of it. We wish we could go back and do it all over again because it was so much fun and everything we dreamed of for our big day! Thank you again for your time, hard work, and help with each and every detail leading up to the big day!

    Best planner - hands down!

    We were SO fortunate to find Olive & Ivy Events and have Lauren help plan and coordinate our wedding. From our initial consultation until the very end of the reception, Lauren was always professional and a joy to work with! Her experience and knowledge in the events industry allowed us to plan confidently in the midst of the pandemic. Lauren connected us with some amazing vendors, helped with styling to create a beautiful, cohesive look, and ultimately coordinated our dream wedding! We would absolutely recommend Olive & Ivy Events over and over again for folks planning a wedding or event in Nashville or anywhere Lauren will travel!

    Perfection

    My wedding day was nothing short of perfection thanks to Lauren. Lauren was my wedding planner for over a year, and she made everything seamless and easy. Not only did she have to overcome COVID restrictions, but she also had to work with me from long distance, which never seemed to phase her one bit. She remained calm, cool, and collected throughout the planning process and on the day of my wedding. I think I was the most relaxed I have ever been on my wedding day because I had nothing to worry about and was able to enjoy the most wonderful parts of the day. Lauren went above and beyond to make sure my wedding day was everything that I hoped and dreamed of, and for that, I couldn’t be more grateful. If you are looking for a wedding planner, choose Lauren and you will not be disappointed!!

    Lauren Wallstedt = Rockstar-level Wedding Planner

    Olive & Ivy Events and Lauren Wallstedt were absolutely CRITICAL in our wedding being such a success. I was skeptical of a wedding planner, because I’ve produced 400+ people concerts and events in Nashville and New Orleans. But working with Lauren proved to be the smartest decision of my entire wedding. Lauren is so wise and experienced beyond her years, so organized, and has a great eye to keep costs down.

    First her wisdom and experience. A wedding is 1,000 different micro-decisions that work together, which can be very overwhelming. As we faced countless options, Lauren coached and discussed until we found the perfect way forward. While we were guessing, she shared her experiences from past weddings. THIS IS WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD because it lets you focus on the big things.

    Second, her organization is second to none. I’m an organized person. Valedictorian turned full scholar turned VUMC computer scientist, and Lauren STILL out-organized me haha. When COVID-19 changed so much of our plans, Lauren was able to basically re-do all our contracts in a matter of days. When we decided last minute to hire a sound engineer because our previous one fell through, she got it done in a few days. When we decided 10 MINUTES BEFORE THE WEDDING to do a procession, she got it done. I have countless of these stories, but I think you get the picture. Lauren’s masterful management of all the vendors, contracts, details etc etc makes her one of the best.

    Third, her focus on costs. There’s no denying that weddings can be expensive, but ALL EVENTS can be expensive if no one is mindful of costs. When we put our orders with vendors together, Lauren went over them with a fine-tooth comb, helping us consider savings and different options. If plans changed after we got initial contracts, she would make sure obsolete items were removed from invoices. In addition, she would offer her own solutions in the place of vendors.

    Overall, Lauren Wallstedt’s wisdom, organization, and eye for expenses make her the best wedding planner in Nashville. Do yourself a favor and bring this rock star on to your team!

    Made our Wedding(s) possible!

    Lauren at Olive and Ivy was amazing! She got us through our first small wedding that we had to completely change up 5 days before our event due to COVID. We also had her again for our big celebration a year later that also required rescheduling at least once. Lauren helped us manage rescheduling all the vendors and did a fantastic job on the day of the event!

    Bride of one of her weddings!

    Lauren at Olive & Ivy Events went above and beyond to make sure my wedding day was the best day of my life! I could have never done it without her. She thought of every little detail and was organized throughout the entire planning process, which led it to be stress-free for me as well as a very enjoyable time in my life. She has excellent taste and overall my wedding was unique, classy, time-less, and a day that people are still raving about after the fact! I cannot thank or recommend Lauren and Olive & Ivy Events enough!!
