If your hesitant about hiring a wedding planner, I can assure you it’s the best decision my husband and I made for our wedding. In the beginning, people we talked to said “you don’t need a wedding planner, the venue handles everything” - I lear...ned very quickly that is so far from the truth. Lauren and I met 2 years ago after I already planned my wedding. Once my venue and all my vendors were booked, I realized I wanted someone who can connect all the dots and insure everything would run smoothly on my wedding day, leaving me without any worries so that I can actually enjoy my wedding day. I hired Lauren for “Day Of Coordination” but to say she only helped with day of coordination is a complete understatement. Lauren is the ultimate wedding planner, covering every single detail you could ever imagine - she discussed details with me I would have never even thought about, reviewed every contract I had and worked with my venue and vendors. When COVID hit, Lauren made sure I remained calm and we worked through the bumps in the road together; she helped me through 3 date changes and a last minute venue change - if I didn’t have her through COVID, I really don’t know if our wedding would have turned out as amazing as it did. Lauren was available to me nearly 24/7 it seemed! When I emailed her, I would get a response in less than an hour. She allowed me to text or call her whenever I needed as well. She attended vendor meetings in-person as well as on the phone. Lauren created the ultimate wedding timeline that would be given to our venue and vendors; every minute was planned out perfectly to the T! Not only did we have Lauren for our wedding day, we had her amazing co-worker Greg who stayed with my husband catering to his every need, along with two other hard-working staff members who set up our wedding venue exactly how we envisioned it with our decor. Lauren was by my side from start to finish on my wedding day, she handled everything - there wasn’t anything I needed to think about or do, she took care of it all. I cannot thank her and her staff enough for helping me plan/replan a wedding through COVID, and in the end everything turned out perfectly, just like a fairytale. Most importantly, Lauren’s pricing is extremely reasonable - you get SO much for your money! I could go on and on forever about Lauren and her staff, but I encourage you to see for yourself how amazing she is … I promise LCR Events will not disappoint! Trust me, everyone needs a wedding planner - I’m OCD organized and pay attention to every little detail, yet there were things Lauren brought to my attention that never crossed my mind. Hands down, best decision my husband and I made. The greatest part is, I gained a good new friend throughout all of this & look forward to remaining in touch with Lauren!
