Hiring Laura was the best wedding planning decision we made! She helped us stay organized leading up to the big day, guided us in making important decisions, made sure everything ran smoothly, and brought our dream vision to life. We couldn’t have done it without her. She is so talented and such an amazing person that really knows what she’s doing. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and her attention to detail is incredible. Also, I was so touched when Laura and her entire team showed up the morning of the wedding wearing matching sets from the athleisure wear brand I owe - it was so thoughtful and adorable! If you’re getting married, you need Laura in your life :)
We absolutely adored Laura. She gets everything done so you can truly enjoy the day. She did both my sister's wedding and mine and they both went down so smoothly. She is calm, ORGANIZED (beyond belief) and awesome to work with. I would hire her again in a minute- she is simply the best!
Laura is the absolute BEST person to have on your side when you're planning your wedding. She was so attentive, organized, and honest throughout the planning process. We planned our wedding while living out of state, so it would have been nearly impossible to make our big day happen without her help. Laura understood immediately the kind of style/feel we were going for with our wedding and took it and ran with it! The vendors she suggested were wonderful and in turn, all the vendors spoke VERY highly of her as well! In the weeks leading up to the wedding she was very easy to communicate with via email and phone and on the day of the wedding she was there from morning to night, working to make sure vendors were dealt with accordingly and to make sure the wedding party was on schedule and where they needed to be. Laura really became a friend during the planning of our wedding and we LOVE her! We would use her again in a heartbeat and would urge anyone in the area to hire her! Yay Laura!!!!
Laura and her team were the absolute best. I went back and forth during my wedding planning process about hiring a wedding coordinator, and I am so happy I did. I highly recommend every bride hire a day of coordinator, definitely worth every penny! I hired Laura for same day wedding coordination and end of night clean up.
Laura was so easy to work with. She was quick to respond to e-mails, super organized and so easy to talk with. She went above and beyond to make my wedding day run smoothly and brought my wedding day vision to life.
We met several times in person to work on a time line for the entire weekend and details of decorating. My wedding party and vendors were super impressed by the time line. It helped keep people from asking me where they needed to be when, they just had to reference back to the itinerary. She also contacted all my vendors the week of the wedding so I didn't have to worry about verifying last minute details with them.
The moment I handed off all my decor for our wedding to Laura, a calmness settled over me. I knew everything was out of my hands and into hers. I trusted her to make my wedding day beautiful and run smoothly, which of course she did. I was able to relax and enjoy our wedding day and the entire weekend. I didn't have to worry about a thing. The end of the night clean up was also a great add on. All of our gifts, decor and floral arrangements were packed up and brought to our hotel room. She even returned my rental items for me.
I can't say enough great things about Laura! Thank you so much Laura!
It was such a relief to just put my trust in Laura and know she would help me create the perfect event. I hired her as a Day of Coordinator and highly recommend her services - no matter how organized or together you think you have things - knowing Laura is there to help coordinate the event and handle any issues is something you can't put a price on.
Laura is absolutely amazing. My wedding could not have gone on without her. I hired Laura as my day-of-coordinator and her work was absolutely perfect. We met a few times to work out details and Laura took care of everything. I didn't have to worry about anything on the day of the wedding. Laura took care of all the vendors, all the decorating, made the itinerary, etc. My wedding day went on without a single hiccup and I'm sure I owe most of that to Laura and her impeccable organizational skills. She really was a godsend and I would recommend her to anyone.
Laura is awesome! She is so professional and really knows her stuff. She keeps things moving, even when my fiancee and I dropped the ball on our end a few times. She was invaluable leading up to the wedding, and even more so the day of. We didn't have to worry about anything...she took care of absolutely everything. Directing people, setting up decorations, dealing with vendors, clean up, she does it all! Not to mention she brought her A-game when we had a few crisis with our ceremony and reception site and she dealt with the problems efficiently and effectively. She saved the day and our wedding probably wouldn't have happened without her. She has different levels of assistance so whether you want her to help with a few details, or you want her to plan your entire wedding, you'll be in good hands. If you think you can't afford a wedding planner, think again. I guarantee you can't afford NOT to have Laura!
My husband and I hired Laura as a day of coordinator for our wedding. I wanted to do the "planning" of the wedding, but wanted someone there to help take stress away from my family and me the day of the wedding.
Laura did a fabulous job! She picked up on all of the details I wanted to be executed for my day and made sure they all happened! Her detailed itinerary helped everyone know where to be and when & she did a great job contacting all of the vendors to make sure they would arrive on time, etc.
Laura is a great asset to your wedding because she has a low-key personality while still being extremely attentive to detail.
My husband and I would highly recommend Laura and Brides on a Budget!
Laura Ursin of Brides on a Budget served as our day-of coordinator this summer. She was fantastic to work with - I couldn't be more happy with the service she provided. Laura was hands-on before the day and even did several things beyond the "day-of" responsibilities. At the wedding, she was very professional and on-top-of-things. I couldn't have done it without her. She is also very reasonably priced - well worth every penny!
"I would recommend Laura as a coordinator to any couple planning their wedding. Laura was very accessible and approachable throughout the planning process. The day of the wedding I did not worry about a thing knowing Laura was taking care of everything behind the scenes. Laura also had great resources that ended up saving us money!"
