I could not have ask for better wedding day of coordinators for my wedding. Lauren and Josalyn were the best. Anything you needed they were right there to make my wedding day go as smooth as possible. Lauren communicated with all of my vendors and made an amazing timeline for the day. If anything went wrong I surely do not know about it and that was my goal! I would highly recommend I do Memorable Occasions to any bride :)

Lauren was fantastic as our wedding day-of coordinator. She helped us stay organized with every detail leading up to the big day, communicated clearly with all of our vendors, and guided us through the rehearsal so we felt confident about the ceremony. On the wedding day itself, she served as the main point of contact, handling everything with professionalism and ease. She was always responsive, helpful, and willing to go above and beyond. We had a wonderful experience with Lauren and would highly recommend working with her.

I don’t want to imagine how our wedding would have went without Christina & Lauren from I do Memorable Occasions. On a budget and initially hesitant about the need for Planning and Coordination, we chose the Partial Package for $2800, and it was worth every $.
From the beggining, Lauren and Christina took the reins and kept us moving forward meeting the deadlines we needed to. They helped us find the 5 vendors we selected, vetted them, got us to the prices we needed for each service, and stayed in touch with them along the way. Our wedding day coordinator Christina met with us in person at the venue, and twice over the phone (One of them with our photographer) to nail down the timeline of the day. She listened to our wants but more importantly kept us honest about what was possible and how long things would take.
The day of the wedding Christina was simply amazing. She cooly worked under pressure both at the hotel and the church to get everyone ready to go on time. You can’t coordinate at the church without a coordinator or everything going thru Bridge/Groom. Then she went to the venue and worked quickly to get everything we wanted setup in just the right way. One there she kept us on schedule, herded the bridal party and our family, and kept the 2 of us on schedule. She always met us with a smile and 2 drinks when we needed them. The day was magical, our guests had a great time, and we have the memory we want. Worth every $.

We could not have asked for a better wedding coordinator! From start to finish, she went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. One of the things that stood out was how many vendors pulled us aside to say how impressed they were with her communication & professionalism. She kept everyone on the same page, which made the day stress free not only for us but also for our entire vendor team. Lauren was organized, calm and always a step ahead taking care of details before we even realized they needed attention. Because of her we were able to truly relax and enjoy every moment of our wedding day. We are so grateful for her hard work and dedication and old recommend her to any couple looking for a coordinator who is both incredibly talented and a joy to work with!!

My husband and I hired Laurel to be our day of wedding coordinator for our wedding on July 19th and we could not have been happier with our choice and Laurel’s services!!! From the beginning Laurel was very responsive and always available to answer any questions I had! She attended multiple meetings at our venue to discuss day of details etc without hesitation! Laurel was extremely organized and always on top of anything I mentioned I would need her to help with on wedding day! Come wedding day we truly could not have had such a seamlessly perfect wedding without all of laurels hard work!! She knew exactly what needed to be done and executed it perfectly!!! She set up decor, made sure we stayed on schedule, helped us with anything we needed as little things came up throughout the day, made sure we had drinks in hand, and confidently made decisions regarding logistics and decor when we had to move our cocktail hour inside due to rain! She was truly incredible and a joy to work with!! Our wedding would not have been what it was without her, so thank you Laurel!! Most importantly having Laurel there allowed my husband, family and I to truly enjoy each moment of the wedding as we had nothing to worry about, she had it covered, a brides dream come true!!! I would highly recommend Laurel and her team for all your wedding coordination needs!!! Thank you again!!

Lauren and Julia truly made the whole experience planning our wedding so stress free. Julia was our day of coordinator and honestly she made the day so special and I did not have any worries! Lauren in the beginning made the decor shopping and small details decisions experience much easier as I am not creative at all! Also the communication and planning with the vendors was impeccable. They took away all the chaos from my husband and I and everything went off without a hitch and if it didn't we did not know! 10 /10! I would strongly reccomend them for every wedding! Super organized, professional and most importantly to me caring and patient.
Thank you so much Julia an Lauren!

We could not have pulled of such a seamless and perfect wedding day without all of the help and coordination from Lauren! She is incredibly organized and made sure every single detail was accounted for. When we first started working together, she brought up questions about details that we hadn’t even thought of yet, and without her these would have been stressed about at the last minute or forgotten all together. The morning after our wedding I couldn’t find the special charm from my bouquet. I knew I didn’t take it off and was sure that it was gone. I reached out to Lauren and she knew exactly what box, inside of which bin, it was in. Her dedication to details prevented a sentimental object from getting lost on a very hectic day. Lauren and I Do Memorable Occasions is a must have partner for your big day!

Lauren from I Do Memorable Occasions was truly the backbone of our wedding day. From the moment we started working together, she brought a calm, confident energy and an exceptional level of organization that immediately put us at ease. Thanks to her, our day was completely stress-free and flowed seamlessly from start to finish.
She created a detailed and thoughtful timeline that kept everything on track, and her communication with all of our vendors was outstanding. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing because Lauren handled every detail behind the scenes so we could be fully present and actually enjoy our wedding day.
Her professionalism, attentiveness, and warm demeanor made the planning process so much more enjoyable. She was always one step ahead and made sure every element was perfectly in place. She helped us set up our wedding and bring our personals back at the end.
If you're looking for someone who will bring peace of mind, flawless coordination, and genuine care to your wedding, Lauren is the one. We are beyond grateful for everything she did to make our day so memorable.

So so so thankful that we hired Lauren! She went above and beyond our expectations and most of all, she kept us on track. She was easy to communicate with and very responsive for the whole year we worked with her. We were able to have a worry free wedding day experience thanks to her. She also did an extremely great job at setting up all our decor and making our ceremony and reception look STUNNING. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants to have a stress free and amazing wedding process. 11/10 on her services.

There truly aren’t enough words to describe how AMAZING Lauren is. If there’s ONE thing you should invest in for your wedding (or any event), let it be Lauren—you will not regret it.
From start to finish, she was beyond helpful, incredibly organized, and genuinely caring. She was always a step ahead, thinking of every little detail before I even had the chance to worry about it. Her attentiveness and calm presence made all the difference throughout the entire process. She wasn’t just managing the wedding—she was checking in on us constantly, making sure my (now) husband and I had drinks in our hands (whether water or cocktails—she’d double-check to make sure we were good).
What truly blew me away was that every single vendor we worked with pulled me aside to say the same thing: “We wish every bride had a Lauren.” That says it all. She’s not just good at what she does—she’s exceptional.
Lauren made our day seamless, joyful, and completely stress-free. Hiring her was, without question, the best decision we made.

Wow! Lauren was the absolute best! Our wedding day would not have gone as smoothly if it wasn't for her! Lauren is sweet, professional and reliable. She went above and beyond to make our day special!

She gave helpful timelines that were easy to follow, along with an additional day of timeline for our friends and family to follow. We could not recommend her more! Thank you so much, Lauren!

Lauren was absolutely flawless. We live in Texas but our wedding was held at the Hyatt Lodge Oak Brook on June 14, 2025. Not only did Lauren help coordinate everything, but went above and beyond to support us before the big day. I trust Lauren with everything I have! She was patient, easy to work with, direct with vendors for exceptional organization, and I got great feedback about her from both sides of the family. I highly recommend working with I Do Memorable Occasions to coordinate your wedding. THANK YOU LAUREN!

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about I Do Memorable Occasions and our day-of coordinator, Julia. From the moment we started working together two months before our wedding, Julia brought such a sense of calm, clarity, and confidence to the entire planning process. She was incredibly organized, communicative, and thoughtful, anticipating needs before they even came up and ensuring we felt supported every step of the way.
On the day of our wedding, I felt completely at ease knowing Julia was there. Everything flowed so smoothly, and any small issues were handled so quickly and quietly that we didn’t even notice them, because she had it all under control. Her presence was such a grounding force: calm, kind, and always with a warm smile. She managed timelines, vendors, details, and logistics with such grace that we were truly able to relax and soak in every moment of the day.
Not only was she an incredible coordinator, but she also treated us with genuine care and respect. You can tell she really loves what she does, and it shows in every interaction. Julia made our wedding feel effortless, and I know it was because of all their hard work behind the scenes. Hiring her was easily one of the best decisions we made. Thank you, Julia, for helping bring our vision to life and for making our day so special!

We were fortunate enough to have both Lauren and Julia as a team for day of coordination for our May 2025 wedding. They were totally great!! Everything leading up to the day was fantastic. They were always available to answer my small questions or support my ideas.
As a Type-A person it was initially a bit scary letting go of some of the control but this group really put my mind at ease. They ask the right questions and are completely open to your ideas, input, and involvement. The team will do the absolute best to recreate your vision in any way possible and they will fight for it and work with your other vendors who might think some things are not possible.
I was absolutely blown away at their efficiency. Our venue had quite a tight time frame to set up the space. Our decor was quite extensive including 300+ candles and 60+ diy bud vases not to mention signage etc. They were able to manage everything in the time! My jaw was on the ground when I walked into the reception space. They took everything I dreamed up in my head and replicated it perfectly. It was a dream! Note: some decor setup is indeed an extra cost and this was clearly explained at the start :) Totally worth it for us to not put additional stress on our family too much.
At the end of the night the decor was packed up and brought back to our airbnb nearby in the same manner of efficiency. I blinked and the space was spic and span!
Another bonus is they both carry magic emergency box kits with most things you would need but maybe forgot! :-)
I cannot thank you guys enough for all the hard work, patience, and thoughtfulness!!

Lauren did a wonderful job on our wedding day and we are very glad that we hired her. She helped us stay organized long before the wedding date, always communicated with professionalism, and gave us many ideas that we hadn't thought of. We got many comments that ours was the "best wedding." We recommend her highly. Thank you! -Francis & Kevin

We originally reached out to Lauren because she was my best friend’s day of coordinator and she made the day flow so smoothly and took all the weight off the bride. She was not available for our wedding day, 10/4/24, but introduced us to Christina and it was a match made in heaven! Christina went above and beyond and helped make our day PERFECT! Although she was our day of coordinator, she was available for any questions we had from the time of signing, which was in December! She helped with narrowing down venders and giving honest opinions/feedback when asked! We had a sit down meeting with her about two months out which was very relaxing and informative. After that meeting we headed to a consultation with our venue/venue coordinator and it was nice to build that relationship all together. Christina did so much behind scenes that we’re sure we still don’t know everything she helped with! She was ready for anything and everything, we needed scissors, she had them, I had makeup on my dress, she had wipes. She even took pictures as we were walking around with our photographer and videographer, some of the best pictures from our special day. She built our timeline, kept us on schedule, reached out to venders, set reminders for final payments, handled tips, helped with set up and room flip, ran our rehearsal, brought decor back to our hotel and so much more. If you think a day of coordinator isn’t needed/out of budget, I highly recommend to rethink that decision and honestly re-budget somehow, there are affordable options out there (we did a lot of research and found someone that worked perfectly for us). It was nice knowing we had someone we trusted helping make our day special without having to sacrifice our friends and family missing certain events/moments for set up/tear down. For us, that was something we didn’t want to happen. We highly recommend I Do Memorable Occasions, Lauren and Christina are both phenomenal to work with and very responsive. Our day couldn’t have been more perfect, and that’s all thanks to Christina and I Do Memorable Occasions!

We hired Lauren for her day-of wedding coordinator package. We had a very helpful and detailed call about 2-3 months before the wedding outlining our goals and timeline. She began working directly with our vendors one month prior to the wedding, handling any outstanding action items, fielding questions and continuing to update our shared Google doc timeline. We texted and emailed Lauren as new updates arose and she was quick to reply! Lauren attended our rehearsal and was FABULOUS. She jumped right in. She’s kind, warm, fun, and extremely organized. She made my husband and I feel completely at ease and we were so excited to have her with us on wedding day. Any concern of ours was addressed quickly and calmly. If larger issues arose, we were never made aware. She brought us our drinks of choice throughout the night and consistently checked in to see if we needed anything. I couldn’t imagine Lauren not being a part of our day. She’s an amazing person and wedding coordinator with a “can do” attitude. We absolutely highly recommend hiring her for her services!!! She’ll bring peace of mind and positivity to your day :)

Lauren, as a "day-of" planner, was involved ~2 months before our wedding day. She was organized, detail-oriented, and streamlined a lot of our conversations with vendors in the months/weeks leading up to the wedding.
On the day-of, she was amazing! Everything went according to our detailed scheduled, and when it didn't it wasn't apparent to us. She was calm, cool, and collected... any issues that did arise were handled immediately and quietly. If she was stressed, she didn't show it one bit! We couldn't recommend her services enough, worth every penny!

We hired Lauren for her month-of planning package and can honestly say it was the best decision we made while planning our wedding. Lauren paid attention to every little detail and made sure that we got everything out of our day that we wanted. When things inevitably went wrong on the morning of the wedding, Lauren handled everything with grace and kept all of the stress off of us. Without Lauren, our families and ourselves would not have enjoyed our day nearly as much. She truly took care of every little thing, including making sure my husband and I always had a drink in our hand! We could not recommend Lauren enough and thoroughly enjoyed working with her.

We hired Lauren as a day of coordinator and she did a fantastic job making sure all the little details were pulled together on my big day. I am a bit of a planner myself and was hesitant to hire a planner as I wasn’t sure if I needed one. Let me tell you, I am so happy that I did! Lauren really was always there to make sure everything went as I had planned on my big day, always with a drink in hand for me, I might add. I truly did not feel like I had to worry about anything, which is very important the day of. I believe her pricing was very fair and she did a great job! Thank you, Lauren!

Hiring Lauren was probably the best decision we made while wedding planning. We had most things decided on about 8 months out, but we realized there were a lot of little details that would have to be managed by my parents or our bridal party unless we hired a day-of wedding coordinator, which is where Lauren came in. She was honestly the only coordinator I talked to. Right from the start I could tell she was organized and paid attention to the details. She visited our venue about a month out and attended our rehearsal which went very smoothly. Beginning from a month out to the day of, she was in contact with our vendors making sure everything was set for the big day. She sat down with my husband and to make sure she had all the details of our wedding. She made an essential timeline which I realize we would never have been able to do in such a detailed manner on our own. On the day of, she set up all the décor and made sure our vendors were where they needed to be. She checked in with me and my bridal party regularly. My husband and I and our families got to relax because she handled it all. She even calmed my nerves when they started to creep up before the ceremony. I really cannot praise Lauren enough and would highly recommend hiring her for your big day. It's well worth it.

We hired Lauren for our day of coordinator and she was truly AMAZING! She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for the day. She met with us once at our reception space and went through everything. We were pretty laid back so it was great to have Lauren telling us exactly what we needed to do and prepare. About a month before, she reached out to all of our vendors and made sure everyone had our schedule. This was so helpful because we did not have to worry about anything!
The day of our wedding, Lauren was at the venue setting things up beforehand, brought us drinks the entire night, and was a calming presence. I have been to multiple weddings and have seen planners drag bridesmaids out on the dancefloor to get the "perfect dancing pictures with the bride." Lauren was not pushy at all and let everything happen naturally.
I have been to so many weddings where the bride and groom, parents, or friends and family members were forced to clean up and load up cars at the end of the night. I was so adamant at the start of this process that I did not want any of my family members having to worry about this at the end of the night. About an hour before the reception ended, Lauren brought everything back to our hotel room. I still have no idea how she got all of it up to the room so effortlessly, but it was all there! The only thing I walked out with that night was one of my guest's shoes she left.
Lauren is truly the best of the best. Everyone was so impressed by her thoroughness, her attention to detail, and doing it all while making it look effortless. Thank you so much for making our day so special and memorable. We appreciate you so so much!

I used Lauren for her day-of coordination services. It was one of the vendors I felt was worth every penny. I did not have much help with wedding execution from either my or my fiancés family, so this was very necessary. I honestly could not have done it without her. Lauren understood from the beginning that I was very hands-on and respected that. She helped me stay organized with her documents and helped me communicate with all my vendors the month of my wedding. She was a text away and always very responsive and respectful. She saved me at our rehearsal dinner when my nerves were peak and I didn’t want to deal with managing family members. Due to the limited window we had for reception setup, she even added someone to our day to help ensure things were set up on time. If you are on the fence on getting a day-of coordinator, the answer is yes, you should! I would highly recommend Lauren to my friends.

I used Lauren as my Day of Coordinator for my wedding in February at the Bridge in Lemont, and let me tell you, she put in more than just the day of. Lauren was an absolute blessing both before and during my wedding. I chatted with her so much in the time from when I signed the contract to the day of. She let me bounce ideas off of her and get her opinion with her experience in weddings. On the day of my wedding, you can ask any vendor, I was one of the most chill brides, and I think so much of that was because Lauren had my back. She was so organized, she communicated with every single one of my vendors, she got everything set up and ready, and she took everything down so I didn't have to worry about getting everything out after the reception. My family and bridal group loved her and so did I. Do not think twice about booking Lauren, she was worth every penny!
Thank you Lauren for all your hard work and dedication to making sure my wedding went smoothly and that me and the rest of my party could just hang out and enjoy ourselves the day of. You were truly fantastic. 😘

Lauren is hands down amazing! We hired Lauren to be our Day of Coordinator and it was THE BEST decision we made. Lauren made sure that our day was seamless and I'm so grateful for all that she did on our wedding day! I honestly don't know how I would have said "I Do" without her. My husband and I agree that hiring Lauren was the best decision we made for our wedding day! Lauren is super detail oriented and organized. She thought of a lot of great questions and ideas that I didn't even think of that were very helpful in the planning leading up to the wedding! Lauren was so helpful leading up to our wedding and of course on the day of the wedding allowing my husband and I along with our bridal party to FULLY enjoy our day without any worries. The detailed timeline that Lauren created was awesome and it was very helpful having her as our main point of contact for all of our wedding vendors. Working with Lauren was great and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner/coordinator. Thank you again Lauren for making sure we had the best wedding day!

We hired Lauren to be our "day of" coordinator, and are so happy we did. We mainly needed someone to make sure all of the vendors knew where to go and what to do, and to set out our decorations. Lauren and her assistant Nicole actually toured the venue with us a couple months in advance, met with us multiple times to really understand our vision and priorities, and coordinated all of the logistics in the month leading up to wedding day. Lauren asked the questions that we never would have thought to ask ourselves, which shows how experienced she is. She also put together a comprehensive timeline, photo shot list, vendor contact list, and decoration details. Our photographer commented on how organized and thorough it all was. Nicole was the one actually at our rehearsal and wedding day, and she was fantastic. I was able to relax and enjoy the day because I knew she would handle everything, and she did! We especially appreciated how she decorated the reception hall, with very little direction from us. It was all perfect! Thank you Lauren and Nicole!

AMAZING WEDDING PLANNER!
What can I say about Lauren??? This woman knows her stuff. My husband and I were looking for “a day of wedding coordinator”because we pretty much had the majority of the wedding planned. But we needed assistance with the wedding timeline! So I found Lauren on The Wedding Wire site. We spoke to so many wedding planners that we found or was referred too. But when we spoke to Lauren, we were sold.
She was so sweet and was ready to hit the ground running! She communicated very well with us from the beginning of our meeting until the day of the wedding! We are so grateful to have hired her for our special day. She did a phenomenal job at planning, organizing and coordinating our wedding day. Our family, friends and photographer were so amazed at how calm, professional and so in tune Lauren was with handling a wedding size of over 200 guests all by herself. All of our guests mentioned that she was was on top of things and it showed. We were not worried at all. This helped me to stay a calmed bride because I hired a great wedding planning!
Lauren handled everything with class! So with that being said, PLEASE HIRE HER! You won’t be disappointed. We have a forever friend!
Love,
The Harper’s!

Do yourself a favor and just book Lauren!! If I could give her 10 stars, I would. She will do everything in her power to make this the best day of your life. We had multiple issues with the venue a month into the wedding and Lauren was able to step in and clear everything up. She is very organized and easy to communicate with. She was easily the best thing we spent money on for our wedding. I can’t rave about her enough.

Lauren was our day-of coordinator and was essential to the success of our wedding day! Everything went smoothly and without any issues. She was crucial to our planning process - she ensured that all bases were covered, including all of the little details that we had not thought of ourselves. No stone was left unturned. She is so professional, thoughtful, and kind, and does a great job of integrating the personalities/interests of the couples in her planning. I was feeling nervous about my wedding because I am uncomfortable with attention - but she made sure that would not be an issue. She immediately came up with creative ways to make the entrances, cake cutting, and first dance more comfortable for me, while still being able to do them. She is incredibly organized and establishes relationships and strong communication with other vendors. I could not recommend I Do Memorable Occasions enough! Thank you, Lauren!

She took a vision, and made it come to life! She was always in contact with me, and vendors! Extremely attentive, organized, and knowledgeable! I will continue to recommend her for everyone going forward! She made everything seem so easy! Not one thing went wrong for our wedding day, and we couldn’t ask for anything more! It was the perfect day, and it wouldn’t have been possible with out Lauren!

From the moment I had my first conversation with Lauren, I was immediately struck by Lauren's professionalism and her curiousity and willingness to learn about my culture as she had never coordinated an Indian wedding on her own. Lauren was prompt in her communication, patient, calm and organized. My fiance, my family, and my friends had nothing but praise for Lauren on our wedding day. Lauren did an amazing job communicating with my vendors and also making sure my day went as smoothly as possible. If there was a movie moment, it was this: as I was rushing to go to the event, the back of my earring fell off and we couldn't find it and Lauren quick-minded that she is, immediately offered the back of her earring thus saving the day! I would not have been able to do without her coordinating the wedding and I highly recommend Lauren! Thanks for being part of our special day, Lauren!

I want to start off by saying I cannot recommend Lauren enough! She did a phenomenal job making sure my June 3rd wedding was perfect! I took a chance with Lauren and it was the best decision made. A few months before my wedding a co-worker of mine who had recently gotten married suggesting having a wedding day of coordinator. Hiring a coordinator hadn’t even crossed my mind. My co-worker told me you will be grateful when your big day arrives and you have the help and someone to coordinate the day. I took her advice and starting researching online to find a day of coordinator. I came across I Do Memorial Occasions and decided to reach out to Lauren right away. She was completely unknown to my then Fiancé and I before, but finding her was the best thing that could have happened. Lauren is literally the most precise and organized person I have ever met. My other vendors kept telling us that she is very on top of things, easy to work with and one of the most organized coordinators ever. Lauren is so easy to communicate with and helped us develop a plan of how we wanted our wedding day to look. She also was a huge help in reaching out to our other vendors to coordinate details & timelines. She defiantly took the load off of our shoulders as my groom and I both work inflexible hours and didn’t always have the time to coordinate with them. I am absolutely positive our wedding would not have been what it was if it wasn’t for Lauren and her expertise. HIGHLY RECCOMEND!!

Lauren planed my out of state wedding day timeline. I gave the timeline to my venue’s on-site coordinator and you would have thought Lauren herself was there coordinating my wedding! She made sure no detail was missed and all ran smoothly because of her. Planning a day of timeline for something you personally won’t be coordinating is tough, but Lauren exceeded all expectations. I highly recommend her no matter how big or small of a role you need her for!

WOW! I met Lauren through another one of my best friends who got married the year before and she recommended Lauren to me. Lauren was an INCREDIBLE coordinator for me and my husband. My husband and I had two weddings (silly COVID), but she ensured EVERY detail was taken care and passed onto her. Truly couldn’t have done one wedding let alone two weddings back to back without her! She was an absolute lifesaver throughout my whole wedding journey!!

I truly don't know what we would have done without Lauren. She was so knowledgeable, organized , and patient throughout our entire wedding process!
The day of our wedding we had several curve balls thrown at the day and Lauren handled them with poise and grace! She assured me that everything was going to be perfect... and it was! I have no idea what we would have done without her.
If you're looking for someone professional, reliable, and someone who LOVES weddings- Lauren is your girl!
