Laura Louise Events & Design

Brought our dream wedding to life! Best planner ever - organized, communicative, fun, creative, and so much more!! We hired Laura Louise Events to do partial planning for our wedding, and we could not recommend her and her company enough! She is so thorough, from using questionnaires at the beginning to get to know us and our wedding day vision all the way to the end to help construct the wedding day timeline. She employs a great online tool that helps track guests, RSVPs, finances, vendors, seating charts, etc. and it offers a collaboration space between us and Laura. Laura was very responsive and transparent about deadlines and vendors throughout the planning process. She was also very budget conscious and has vast vendor connections; she provided us with multiple options within our budget for each of our vendors. Based on the conversations we had about the wedding day atmosphere, she also made sure to pair us with vendors that would match that style. At the beginning, we had a general sense of the concept we wanted for our wedding day, but we struggled to find concrete examples to show Laura for inspiration. After getting to know us, she was able to take our loose ideas and bring our dream vision to life! Laura was incredibly hands on and did not hesitate to attend meetings (in-person and virtually) whenever she could; she prioritized in-person meetings with key vendors like the venue, ultimately looking out for our best interests. Our day of team was impeccable (shoutout to Kayla and Laura!!) and the day went off without a hitch; Laura’s hard work and attention to detail ensured the logistics of the day (which were a bit complicated) went smoothly. Laura and Kayla kept everyone in check and made sure we stayed on schedule as much as possible. We loved working with Laura; she was so much fun, had great energy, and was always honest with us. We could not have had our dream wedding without her and we are so grateful for Laura Louise Events! Thank you, Laura, for everything you did for us!

Laura is the best! Her attention to detail is what was amazing. She very easy to talk to, down to earth and made the entire process comfortable for us. She also advocated for us to ensure we received everything we visioned on our wedding day. The wedding party and parents had nothing but great things to say about her.

Our wedding day was an absolute dream, and so much of that magic is owed to the incredible talents of our day-of coordinator, Laura. From the very beginning, Laura demonstrated an unparalleled level of professionalism, warmth, and genuine care for our vision. Her attention to detail was nothing short of extraordinary, ensuring that every element of the day flowed seamlessly. Laura's organizational skills are truly commendable. She anticipated our needs before we even realized them, making the entire day stress-free and allowing us to savor every moment. Her calm demeanor and reassuring presence were a source of comfort throughout the day, providing us the freedom to soak in the joy of our celebration. What sets Laura apart is not just her expertise but her passion for her work. It's evident that she loves what she does, and that love translates into the flawless execution of every detail. She went above and beyond, turning our vision into a reality that surpassed our wildest dreams. We are endlessly grateful for Laura's dedication, kindness, and the tireless effort she put into making our wedding day truly unforgettable. If you're in search of a day-of coordinator who not only excels in her role but also adds an extra layer of joy to your special day, Laura is the perfect choice. We can't thank her enough for being an integral part of our happily ever after.

If you don’t have a day of coordinator, look no further! Laura and her team have been incredible. I reached out to Laura after she was the coordinator for my friends wedding and have not been disappointed since that day. Laura has been the utmost example of professionalism and organization. We chose her day of coordinator services as I was pretty confident about my planning abilities, but we didn’t want to have to do anything on our day of. If you do not feel confident with planning, I would seek out her services for full coverage planning as she did just a stellar job with sending us vendors, connecting with the ones that we had, and helping us with all the details. Day of our expectations were exceeded! Once her team arrived, Kayla and Ivy, we didn’t have to do a thing! The day of our plans changed a lot and they really kept us on time. We had to deal with a tropical storm that popped up two days before the wedding, which was wholly unfortunate. Our venue and everything was inside, however we wanted to take our first look and party photos outside. On the day of the coordinators helped us find an additional space to take photos in and took care of everything. It was so great to have Kayla and Ivy by our side because I didn’t have to worry about anything, I didn’t have to look at the schedule, I didn’t have to worry if that was set up correctly, or this was set up correctly or if vendors had arrived and we’re on time and tell them where to go etc. etc. It felt great to just spend my entire wedding day relaxing and enjoying the beautiful day it was. Thank you Laura, Kayla, and Ivy for making our event the absolute best that it could be.

Laura did a phenomenal job planning our Labor Day 2022 weekend! We knew the minute we met that she would be the calm, experienced and well-connected planner we would need to pull off a post-pandemic event. After getting to know us and what we did (and did not!) want, Laura connected us into a curated collection of amazing vendors that we ended up loving. She is very organized and kept everything moving along confidently all the way to - and through - the big day with her team. Laura's design eye for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception was equally impressive. Best of all, she's fun, funny and is a huge Caps fan! What's not to love? We highly recommend Laura Louise Events for your next special occasion.

Hiring Laura was the best decision we could have made! She made our day absolutely perfect. She helped from the beginning with the design of our wedding all the way to the execution on the day. She ensured that our day went so smoothly and perfectly. She communicated with us consistently (even while she was on maternity leave) to ensure we were feeling okay and things were falling into place. She not only took the time to design and execute a beautiful wedding, but she took the time to get to know us as a couple and make sure we as people were taken care of throughout the whole process. We would hire Laura again and again if we could.

We hired Laura and her team even though our venue came with an on-site coordinator and that was the best decision we made in the planning process. Aside from loving their meticulous attention to detail… our on-site coordinator ended up being unreachable, unorganized, and went MIA for the months leading up to the wedding. Theres a lot to the story, and our on-site coordinator ended up quitting 2 days before the big day, but Kayla and Emily were a dream team and pulled through in every way imaginable to make sure the day was as stress free as possible.

I hired Laura as our partial planner, meaning Laura helped with everything starting 3 months before our wedding date and was our day-of coordinator. Thank goodness I did because she was such an incredible help. Laura answered countless emails, was honest, supportive, and reassured me on all the silly questions I had. We had a handful of in-depth phone conversations leading up to the big day, and she put together a detailed master timeline. She knows what she is talking about, has an eye for design, and is going to steer you in the right direction. If I could go back and do it again I would've hired her as a full planner from the start - that's honestly the biggest mistake I made!! Our wedding day was beautiful, I felt relaxed and as happy as a bride can possibly be. We had some stressful moments with the weather and with the point of contact at my venue but I knew Laura had everything under control and would deal with whatever came up. 100% recommend hiring Laura for your wedding - and if you can, hire her as your full planner!!

Laura made our dreams come true! She saved us from a disaster with one of our vendors and found us an incredible florist one month before the wedding. She made everything look so beautiful at both the ceremony and the reception. She understood our vision and executed it to perfection! I was afraid to bother her with overcommunicating, but Laura put my fears to rest and was there for me, met with me multiple times prior to the wedding, and made sure I was happy and comfortable! We are sooooo thankful for Laura!

Laura was wonderful. We gave her very little details to work with (I do not consider myself very creative or artistic) and we were constantly trying to save money, and still she created a masterpiece for our winter art gallery wedding. It felt like a secret garden in the city. She also organized our after wedding brunch (kind of at the last minute, to her credit). We did the partial planning package, and we loved the vendors that she recommended for us - they were reliable, attentive, and worked with our vision and budget. We hired Laura really early on (>1 yr out from our wedding), so initially we just checked in now and then when we were hiring new vendors (or just to see how we were feeling), but in the months leading up to our wedding we were ALWAYS talking. If I was having a meltdown, or just NEEDED to discuss timeline at 10pm to calm my anxiety, or if our families were driving me crazy and I just needed to vent, I could call her at any hour of the day. She always calmed me down and reminded me what was important. She thought of everything, and always let me say no when I wanted to. I never felt pressure to buy more or go in a certain direction. With Laura, you feel like you are planning your wedding with a friend; it's comfortable, collaborative, and flexible. Can't recommend enough! Also will note her staff who worked with us day of were lovely and super hardworking!

Laura is the best! My wedding day would not have gone as smoothly as it did if not for her. She thinks of everything - even things you wouldn't have thought of, which is super helpful! She makes an amazing timeline to plan out the whole wedding day so you don't miss a beat. She is an absolute pleasure to work with. Laura doesn't feel like another vendor - she's a friend that wants to help make your wedding day perfect!

Laura and her team were the most flexible and helpful team a bride could ask for! She provided us with so many helpful materials that made each step in the planning process a breeze. Not only was she personable and responsive, she was extremely genuine and funny. She truly made my dream day come to life and I couldn't appreciate her more!!

Laura and her team are AMAZING. We had to make last minute changes to move the ceremony inside, and they knocked it out of the park and made me feel at ease, which is a hard task! Working with Laura up until the day was great, and when she unfortunately couldn't be there the day of, Kayla and Ivy stepped in and never missed a beat. They were on top of absolutely everything, from helping me make the decision to go with the rain plan, to keeping the whole day moving perfectly. I barely had to thing of any logistics the entire day and got to thoroughly enjoy all our friends and family! Would recommend them to any friends for a day of coordinator!!

Laura is amazing!! My husband and I hired her after an initial phone call, during which we totally hit it off. Our wedding vision was centered on wanting a big Italian-American party. Laura's Greek heritage helped her fully understand and appreciate the vibe we wanted to achieve. During the final months of planning, Laura took so much stress off my shoulders by asking all the necessary questions, assuring me the event would go smoothly, and working with our vendors on the timeline. She ran our rehearsal efficiently and on the wedding day, she and her assistant, Kayla, were absolute ROCK STARS. From supergluing my shoe in an emergency to setting up our elaborate dessert table and packing up the cars at the end of the night, they made the wedding perfect. I highly recommend LLE&D!!

I am pretty sure Laura was sent from God to help brides on their wedding day. I was on the fence about hiring a day of coordinator and I can confidently say it was worth every single penny (probably more because Laura is amazing). She handled everything with grace and our wedding went so smoothly because of her! Laura and Melanie were so organized and helpful but they were also so much fun to work with I felt like they were friends. Stop looking for a coordinator and just book Laura, you will not regret it!

Laura is amazing! We worked with Laura as our "day-of" coordinator for our wedding, and as any planner will tell you, there is no such thing. Laura started working with us well in advance. Her professionalism, creativeness, and organization made us feel so comfortable and excited for the big day. We did not have to worry about a thing and truly appreciated her and her team's commitment, patience, and hard work to ensure that any minor issues were swiftly resolved. We recommend Laura for any event and would hire Laura for full wedding planning if you are able!

If you’re on the fence about hiring a day-of coordinator - get one. If you want a great one - go with Laura! She was such an amazing force leading up to our wedding, from helping us coordinate details to reminding us of things we hadn’t thought about before. She’s so organized and keeps track of all the moving parts so you don’t have to. It was great to bounce ideas off of her and she helped remove so much of the stress of wedding planning, especially when we had to shift our plans weeks before our wedding due to COVID. Laura was more helpful than we could’ve ever imagined!

Laura is wonderful. I cannot stress enough how wonderful she is to work with, not to mention the vision she created for our day. The entire planning process was so enjoyable and easy! I had so many conflicting ideas and thoughts about my day, my brain was just running a thousand miles an hour and it was so nice to have Laura there to bounce ideas off of and rein me in when I needed it. We were so pleased and couldn’t thank her enough!!! Our day was everything we could have ever wanted.

Laura is amazing! Her attention to detail is unbeatable. She has wonderful ideas, and executed our wedding flawlessly. Flawlessly. Every vendor Laura collaborated with for our wedding was great, and brought our vision to life exactly how we wanted it. We were beyond ecstatic with our experience and our big day! Thank you so much!

Laura has been so amazing throughout this entire wedding planning process! From start to finish, she has had amazing ideas that I never would have thought of on my own that I know will make my wedding day unforgettable. She has such BEAUTIFUL taste in all things wedding related and has made my life so much easier! I would choose her company over and over again in a heartbeat.

Laura is a very good friend, and I have had the pleasure of being able to work with her as a fellow vendor! She puts so much thought and detail into her events and really enjoys what she does. Laura is responsive, organized and an all-around great person. I would highly recommend working with her - you will not be disappointed!

Planning a wedding is stressful and hard, but Laura made it so easy and took all the stress off me. She worked tirelessly to help me plan my special day, from finding the venue, to how I should design my seating chart, Laura went above and beyond to help me figure out all the tiny details that help make a wedding so special. I know that come my wedding day, everything will be taken care of and perfect, all thanks to Laura!

Laura was great from start to finish! Her attention to detail was exactly what I needed as I am not the most organized. She really took the stress out of all of the planning so that we could enjoy our day. Also, she is very knowledgeable about what’s popular among brides and had lots of unique ideas to make our day that much more special!
