Having Lydia and Lauren handle all of the details of my event took all the stress out of the day. They are organized and professional and prepared to handle everything, even the un...
expected, to make the day run smoothly. I highly recommend them.
Working with Lauren from Bourbon City Events was one of the greatest joys of our entire wedding planning experience. Not only is she so sweet and so fun, but we quickly discovered ...
we had a personal connection—she was in the same sorority and the same pledge class as my Matron of Honor at the University of Kentucky! What are the odds? We spent so many planning calls laughing, reminiscing, and bonding over our shared college roots, which made the entire experience feel personal and full of heart.
Lauren seamlessly stepped in to take over after our original planner had to step away—and I truly mean seamlessly. At 10 months out, she filled in every vendor gap, ensured nothing slipped through the cracks, and elevated every detail with her next-level organizational skills. She’s as Type A as they come in the best way possible—her timelines were air-tight, her follow-through was impeccable, and her attention to detail was unparalleled.
On the day of the wedding, Lauren was truly my guardian angel. She made sure I was calm, happy, stress-free, and always had a drink in my hand and food in my belly. She wrangled groomsmen with grace (even if they grumbled a little) and ensured every single one of my last-minute wishes was executed without me lifting a finger. I didn’t want to be overly involved in the small design choices, so I left a lot up to her discretion—I didn’t even know what my cake would look like, or what flavor it was, or what my signage or flowers would be! I just showed up… and it was like walking into the most magical, personalized surprise party.
The end result? A wedding that exceeded every expectation. Our venue—which has hosted over 30 weddings a year for the past decade—said it was one of their Top 10 weddings of all time. Our photographer called it one of his Top 3, and our videographer said it was the best wedding he’s ever shot. And we truly believe that’s thanks to Lauren and Bourbon City Events.
They took our vision—classic, timeless, "champagne wedding on a somewhat beer budget"—and made it feel effortless and completely us. Months later, our friends and family still talk about how amazing it was, and my husband and I keep saying, “That really was the best day ever.”
If you’re even considering working with Bourbon City Events—do it. They will make your life easier, your wedding better, and your memories unforgettable.
I truly can’t say enough wonderful things about Lydia, Lauren, and the entire Bourbon City Events team! I hired BCE for their full-service wedding planning, and it was easily one o...
f the best decisions I made during the entire process. From start to finish, they were incredibly responsive, organized, personable, and genuinely fun to work with. More than that, they truly cared about making both the planning experience and my wedding day as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Their expert guidance on budgeting and vendor selection was absolutely priceless. Having them review and negotiate contracts, manage vendor communication, and keep everything on schedule lifted an enormous weight off my shoulders. There were countless small details I would have never thought of; BCE not only caught them all, but addressed each one with care and precision. Their attention to detail, creative eye, and knowledge of wedding trends made a huge impact on how beautiful and seamless everything turned out.
On the big day, they were an incredible source of support. Everything ran perfectly, and I was able to truly enjoy the moment knowing they had everything under control. I received so many compliments from guests about how professional, knowledgeable, and helpful BCE was. Lauren and Lydia are true pros with strong vendor relationships across the state, a fantastic sense of style, and a sincere passion for what they do. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding or special event. They are simply the best!

Lydia and Lauren are incredible. From the moment you meet them you want to be friends with them. They are professional, experienced, creative, and go above and beyond to make your ...
event special. They pay close attention to every detail and offer up great ideas to enhance your big events. They took time to really get to know us as a couple, and helped us come up with ideas to make our wedding special and unique to us. They offered us researched options when we wanted to make decisions, and took control when we couldn’t possibly make one more choice.
Lydia and Lauren are great at what they do, and have fun while they’re doing it. Their positivity and energy is contagious, especially on a day when stress can be high. I can’t imagine planning an event without them to keep us on track and organized.
I cannot thank them enough or give them enough credit for their hard work and for making our wedding the most memorable and flawless day of our lives!
