n. They read all of our contracts to make sure we had each vendor for the proper amount of time. If you are looking to have an easy, no stress rehearsal and wedding day hire SomethingBlu!

en, Sam, Dani, and the entire SomethingBlu team were on top of every detail. They created thorough timelines and managed all communication with our vendors on the big day, ensuring everything ran seamlessly. They kept the evening perfectly on schedule and made sure our best interests were at the forefront throughout the entire wedding weekend. I can't recommend this incredible team enough. Thank you, SomethingBlu!

rovided reassurance, expertise, and calmness to the whole process which made the 4 months feel like the whole 12. Lauren has a rolodex of wonderful vendors to work with and will provide insight and recommendations every step of the way. We were fully supported on the day with ample of event coordinators to ensure a smooth day. We pulled it off and the wedding was a huge hit and we couldn't have done it without the Something Blu team. I highly encourage their services to support you on your special day.

andard for most of the planning process until the last 6 weeks. We also got married on our own property with 200 people, and we had multiple day of obstacles that were not handled properly or to my satisfaction.

ensured all of our requests gwere played. I would highly recommend this team to anyone looking for a one stop shop, with a great price point, to anyone looking!

an event that we had been planning for months go so smoothly and exactly as we had hoped it would (minus the weather 😄) and a very large reason why was due to their team! They helped make the night a fabulous, fun-filled and memorable event and I cannot thank them enough!

ghout the entire wedding planning process, Lauren was a constant source of support and inspiration, turning our visions into a reality beyond our wildest dreams. We used Lauren for her day of planning services and by far the biggest regret from our wedding is that we did not hire Lauren for her service planning. Lauren's attention to detail was impeccable. She effortlessly handled every aspect of our wedding, from coordinating vendors to killing complicated situations with kindness. Her creativity knew no bounds, and she thought of every little touch that could make our day even more special. She truly saved the day in more ways than we can ever articulate. On the wedding day, Lauren and her team worked tirelessly behind the scenes, ensuring that everything ran seamlessly. Her calm and reassuring presence helped us relax and fully enjoy our day, knowing that we were in the best hands possible. Lauren's professionalism and dedication are unmatched. She went above and beyond to make sure every aspect of our wedding was perfect, and her passion for what she did shone through in every interaction we had with her. I cannot recommend Lauren and Something Blue Events highly enough. If you're looking for a wedding planner who is not only exceptional at her job but also a joy to work with, Lauren is the one. Our wedding day was an absolute fairy tale, and we owe it all to her expertise, creativity, and unwavering commitment to making our dreams come true. Thank you, Lauren, for giving us the wedding of our dreams!

led by Sam was so responsive and flexible - and helped make the day memorable.

re tons of moving pieces, different (but equally strong) personalities, and uncooperative weather. The team was amazing. They worked nonstop that night, benefitting from all their detailed planning prior to the event. They were friendly, helpful, and attentive. In terms of planning, Lauren offered several detailed preliminary meetings where everything was worked out. I just wish we started working with them from the outset rather than starting on our own.

onal destination! The wedding was beautiful and all of our vendors were amazing. The day of was completely stress free because Lauren and her team handled all of the logistics with the vendors. I absolutely recommend Something Blu to any bride in need of wedding planning!

rprise and delight all our guests, no cookie cutter wedding for us. And Lauren and her team from Something Blu Weddings + Events made that happen for us—100%! They were with us from the initial planning to the day of coordination. Their listening and organizational skills, expertise, and contacts with vendors ensured we had the unique, elegant and fun event we wanted. Two months later the compliments from family and friends are still coming--"fabulous," "spectacular," "everything was so different and perfect," "best wedding I've ever attended." Hurray! Even my groom, who was skeptical on the need for a planner, agreed that we had absolutely made the right decision in having Something Blu partner with us throughout the entire planning process. I would do it all over again and highly recommend this team to make your dream wedding or event come true.

ll things went off without a hitch. The team was extremely professional and even able to fix my bustle on the fly. Everything went incredibly smoothly despite the coordinator being switched last minute due to illness. We did not have to worry about decorating or deconstructing post wedding.

tter after speaking to her. She is so calm and easy to talk to immediately putting you at ease. She was also so flexible rescheduling our meetings due to my work schedule. Our wedding day ran so smoothly thanks to Lauren and her team. She knew every detail of the day. My parents, husband, and I were truly able to enjoy the wedding and not have to worry about anything knowing Lauren had it covered. I would absolutely recommend SomethingBlu!

ze. Her attention to detail and ability to transform an idea into a reality made our wedding a dream come true. Throughout the night of our wedding, many guests told me I was the happiest bride they’ve ever seen - which is a true testament to Lauren’s hard work and ability to please even the most indecisive bride. Lauren made our wedding the perfect day and I am so thankful I could rely on her throughout the planning (& replanning) of our wedding.

nd on track. Her entire team was fantastic to work with the day-of and I am so grateful we had them there! They took care of everything so we could really be in the moment and enjoy the day!

hing under control and was incredibly calm and reassuring, which I needed. She uses a great software called Aisleplanner which helped keep everything organized, and even though she ended up having to plan my wedding for 2 years, she never made me feel like a burden. The day of went incredibly smoothly, everything I needed was taken care of and she amazingly took care of and was aware of every single detail of that day. I don't know how I would have done it without her. Her assistant Christine was also wonderful that day. I would highly recommend Something Blu!

he details – Something Blu made sure we had a beautiful and fun wedding but didn’t have to stress about the details. Lauren worked with us from the beginning to create a vision and find a wonderful venue/vendors, all while respecting our overall budget. The wedding planning portal they use was extremely helpful for tracking all finances (budget, expenses, upcoming payments) and served as a centralized website to track all contracts and vendor contact info. She maintained communication/coordination with all vendors and in the month leading up to the wedding, created a detailed timeline and helped us work through all last-minute crisis/changes. On the wedding weekend, Lauren and Christine were rockstars! They were extremely organized, detail-oriented, and always aware of what my husband and I needed throughout the wedding day. We had weather that made us change our original ceremony plan and Lauren/Christine stepped in to make sure the new ceremony location was beautiful and that the wedding party knew the changes without stressing me or my husband. They kept our day running smoothly and handled all unexpected issues with ease. All of their work made it so my husband and I and our families could be fully present for the celebration and enjoy the day for what it was. I would highly recommend hiring Something Blu for your wedding!

and could not have made the process easier. When it finally came time for our wedding, Lauren and her team were amazing. They constantly checked in to see if I needed anything and they were extremely attentive to my wedding vision. They made what would have been a very stressful time seamless. I never had to worry about any of my other vendors as they had it under control. The day of the wedding was amazing. I am SO grateful to have had the Something Blu team with me. They dealt with the transportation and flower issues we had without me even noticing. They helped bustle my dress when no one else could. They made sure everything was gathered for the end of the night. I can go on and on.... The morning after our wedding my mom kept saying how grateful she was that we had hired Something Blu and how great they were!! They made the whole day easy for me and my family. They handled everything and let everyone else enjoy the party!

g in north NJ would be a headache when our jobs were here and super time consuming. I interviewed a handful of wedding planners, and am sooo glad I connected with Lauren! She was absolute perfection to work with and we booked her in February 2020 for full service planning (and the price is so reasonable too!!). THANK GOD WE DID because of course COVID happened! But Lauren kept on us track from the beginning, and we never were in a scramble to look for vendors or having vendors not be booked on time. Time and time again people would ask me if I was stressed over the wedding planning process (we always knew we were gonna be married in Fall 2021, so it was a longer engagement) but my answer was always "no, because I have the best wedding planner!" Lauren keeps you on track for booking vendors on a timeline and always had great suggestions. I also loved that she gave us the creative freedom to explore vendors on our own as well. The day of the wedding came and went with a blur. But Lauren and her team kept me and my husband organized and timely throughout the entire wedding planning process and she crafted a perfect timeline, filled with every vendor detail and step by step timeframe. She was essential in vendor to vendor communication and all of the granular things that I just couldn't make time for. In this day and age when everything feels like it's too much to manage, Lauren and her team made wedding planning look easy and gave us the most beautiful wedding day. I can't thank the Something Blu team enough! HIRE THEM!

e hired her for day-of coordination services). She somehow managed to deal with seating chart changes every day for two weeks leading up to the wedding day (our guest list changed by about 50% over the course of two weeks and we went from 130 to 90 guests in 5 days, with our guest list still changing the NIGHT BEFORE the wedding), last minute vendor requirements due to extra precautions they were taking, and ceremony seating rearrangements the morning of the wedding, and still somehow our wedding day turned out perfect. Due to her seamless coordination with our event venue/catering company, not a single guest sat at the incorrect table nor received the wrong plated dinner. Lauren was always steps ahead of us in terms of anticipating concerns, fixing changes that needed to be made, or completing any action items. More often than not, she was already taking care of something that we were just about to ask her about. We had our wedding at a venue that already provided an amazing venue coordinator (Pomme in Radnor, PA) and halfway through the planning process, we had doubts about whether both a day-of-coordinator AND the venue coordinator were needed. However, Lauren and her assistant Christine did so much behind the scenes, especially in the last month leading up to the wedding and the day of the wedding itself. We highly recommending hiring Something Blu even if you don't think you are a couple that needs day-of coordination, because many things do come up in the final month before the wedding and you will be so glad that you have an experienced team already taking care of everything. Lauren did so much that we can't even list here, but some of the most helpful things were that she took over all vendor communications on our behalf, set up a timeline for our wedding day, did a walk-through with us at the venue, gathered all of our items to be set up before the wedding (decor, programs, gratuities, marriage license, and even florals that were being reused from the rehearsal dinner), and helped coordinate our ceremony rehearsal. She is also so sweet, kind, understanding, and patient, and you will not regret having her by your side the weekend of your wedding!

o are two of the kindest people I have ever met. They went above and beyond for us! Highly recommend working with Something Blu!

e create the wedding day timeline and ensured that the timeline was provided to our vendors. They had everything covered the day of and even helped me wipe our a dirt stain on my dress. Their upbeat energy and attention to detail was amazing. I highly recommend them to anyone!

ve been a disaster otherwise. There are so many nuances that go into planning and executing a wedding and Lauren's experience really shows. Our timeline ran so smoothly on our wedding day and there were no hiccups AT ALL. She was able to alleviate so much stress and we were able to enjoy our wedding day with not having to worry about one detail. Even though we hired Lauren for the day of the wedding she was available for questions throughout the entire process and had great suggestions. Lauren is extremely detail oriented, organized and fun to work with. In addition, she was able to rally up a rowdy large wedding party and run a dress rehearsal and her and her crew went above and beyond setting up and taking down all of our DIY decor. Christine was great to be around on our wedding day as sort of a "personal assistant". She had an awesome personality and she really tried to stay incognito. She helped with everything from making sure we left in the morning on time, to carrying extra supplies, making sure I had something to drink, to bringing hors d'oeuvres to the bridal sweet so my husband and I could get a few moments alone, the list goes on. Overall, you will not regret hiring this vendor. They go above and beyond to make sure you are happy with everything on your wedding day and it shows that they have a passion for delivering excellent service.

eamlessly and was so positive and wonderful to work worth. Checking in, making sure I was feeling good in the month leading up to the big day- I could not have asked for more. I would recommend Something Blu to anyone!

e clients that was undoubtedly so hard to work with. I had no idea what I wanted for anything! I didn't know our color scheme, which vendors we were using, timing, flowers, you name it! Tara worked with me tirelessly to put all of the pieces together. She let me know which decisions had to be made immediately and which ones I could figure out along the way. I was so stressed leading up to the wedding and wondering how I was going to make sure everything was running smoothly. Well, I literally did nothing on my wedding day except have fun and enjoy the day. My husband and I couldn't believe how seamless the day was, especially having to deal with multiple locations and day-of changes due to rain! Tara asked what was important to us for the day and made sure to make those things happen. Worth every single penny and more! If I tried to write all of the amazing things Tara did for us leading up to and on the day of the wedding, I'd have to write about 8 more pages. Seriously, she is that amazing! Tara and the team went above and beyond, exceeded our expectations, and made our wedding a day we won't forget! Thank you thank you thank you!

cation with them in the days before the wedding and making sure set-up went according to plan. Throughout the night she kept me fed and watered and was able to take important items off my hands (e.g. my very expensive gold bracelets that were too delicate to wear all night long) and back to our room for us (e.g. cards, gifts, extra food) so that we didn't have a single worry all night long. She was also able to handle the one mishap we had at our wedding (every wedding has one, so hire a coordinator so you aren't the person dealing with the problem when it comes!) - one of our shuttles never showed and left guests stranded at the ceremony location for a short time before Lauren was able to work out a solution, all the while I was able to keep socializing with guests and acting as hostess and enjoying myself since I knew the problem was being taken care of. Before the wedding, Lauren was also very helpful. She created a comprehensive timeline of the night, which she shared with all our other vendors, and which she able to adapt on the fly when things went wrong (with some guests arrival to the reception site being delayed, including the bride's parents!) so that the guests didn't notice anything was amiss and the evening went as perfectly as if that had been the original plan all along. Lauren and her two assistants were also just a pleasure to be around - so sweet and calm - the perfect presence to add to your wedding ensemble to keep you grounded, centered, and stress-free both before, during, and after the big day.

and communication kept me on track with my own projects, and she was so helpful and flexible when those last-minute changes would come up. On the day of the wedding, Tara was incredible -- she handled things I would have never even though of and was prepared for any circumstance! She was so on top of everything that I was actually able to relax and enjoy my wedding day. When I started planning my wedding, I didn't think I would need to hire a day-of coordinator, but after working with Tara and her team, I can't imagine my big day without them!

ay-of-coordinator" is a bit deceiving because I received so much more than just a day-of service from this company. I started working with Tara as my main day-of-coordinator. I then started working with Sarah, as Tara was expecting her second child, and the transition was incredibly seamless. Both Tara and Sarah attended the venue walk through to make sure everyone was on the same page in terms of setting up the space. Leading up to the wedding, Sarah was so responsive to both email and text - she was very organized and ready to answer any question. Sarah put together a wedding timeline which was shared with all of my vendors. Kim and Sheri were also at the wedding to help Sarah and both were so great! Together, all three made the day go so smoothly. My wedding day was perfect, and it would not have been the same without the help of Something Blu Wedding + Events. My entire family was able to relax and enjoy the day, and I could not have asked for more. I didn't have a thing to worry about on my wedding day as I knew Sarah and her team had taken care of everything. If you are on the fence about hiring a day-of-coordinator, I highly recommend it. And even more so, I strongly suggest hiring Something Blu Wedding + Events! Thank you Sarah and Tara for all of your amazing help!

mode on my wedding day instead of being the bride and enjoying every moment. Tara was our Day-Of-Coordinator, and it was the best decision I made in the whole wedding planning process. Leading up to the wedding, we did a walk through of the venue to talk through the day of schedule. We then kept in communication in the weeks leading up to the wedding - confirming details and she offered great advice when I had questions. Having her at my rehearsal was wonderful - she made sure everyone understood what they were supposed to do and where they were supposed to be. The day of the wedding, I had no worries when it came to logistics. Tara made sure all the vendors were on time, that the bridal party was where they were supposed to be and her team set up at the reception. I felt no stress on my wedding day, and was able to live in the moment, instead of worrying about what needed to be done. Tara also has the most amazing emergency kit - Sarah helped get a stain off my dress after pictures. They also helped bustle my dress and keep adjusting it when it fell out. They also packed everything up when the party ended, and placed it in the designated car. I am so thankful for the piece of mind they gave me on my wedding day, and cannot recommend them enough!!

y details that I would have overlooked. I most appreciated her for her logistics help, especially with my situation being a little tricky. Tara would meet with me on a routine basis. We would go over checklists to keep organized. Her experience, availability, timeliness, and follow up with me was outstanding – it truly allowed me to put all my confidence in her. Tara assisted in the prep leading up to the wedding, day-of assistance, and even the clean-up! It was incredible how her diligent work behind the scenes with the vendors took a load off my shoulders and allowed me to be able to focus on other things, and even enjoy the week leading up to the special day. Tara demonstrated the utmost professionalism throughout the entire process, and I honestly felt she was genuinely excited for me and living through the process with me. She truly made the entire experience very special for me. I’m incredibly grateful for Tara and could not recommend her enough! She was EXACTLY what I needed – and she made it so much fun for me!

ise along with her assistants had my wedding running so smooth and natural. I seriously couldn't have had all my beautiful little details if it wasn't for them! Kim was very helpful in helping the girls and myself get ready. I highly recommend this service for any event!

someone else there who was solely focused on our needs was of utmost importance. After meeting Lauren the first time, we were all so thrilled with that decision. She was so professional, organized, detailed, communicative...we immediately had the confidence that she would be an asset and fulfill her role thoroughly. She and our daughter talked often during the month prior to the event, and along with her two assistants, Lauren helped make our daughter's wedding a perfect day! I would definitely recommend her. And if I had another wedding to plan, Something Blu would be the first call I would make!!

of this the day of. That’s when we found Something Blu. They offer multiple packages that can be customized to fit your needs. The moment we met with Lauren we knew the day would go off without a hitch. Being familiar with the venue, she was able to guide us through the planning process and make suggestions on things we didn’t even think about. Lauren also gave us recommendations on linens and décor that helped us stay within budget. The big day, in August 2016, went perfectly. We gave her a general idea of what we wanted the décor to look like and it’s like she read our minds. Lauren and her team took care of every detail (and every vendor!). I would recommend Something Blu to anyone who wants to work with a planner that will take your vision and turn it into a reality.

ren and her assistants were prompt, professional, and a pleasure to work with! Lauren really made me feel like I didn't have to worry about anything on the day of the wedding. I was able to just relax and enjoy the ride - and that is practically priceless! I was especially grateful for Lauren when I had to make a change to the ceremony setup due to the weather. Instead of having to contact all of our vendors, I just told Lauren and she made sure that the changes were handled quickly and smoothly. If you are looking for day of coordination, I highly recommend Something Blu!

ables and chairs, I had to coordinate everything else with multiple vendors. Lauren was great at reaching out to them and creating a timeline to make sure everyone was on the same page. Lauren and her helpers did a great job making sure everything was set up how we discussed and were so helpful cleaning up at the end of the night. At first I was unsure if I needed a wedding day planner but now I don't see how I could have done it without! A moment when I really appreciated them being there was when I started to get ready to walk down the aisle and did not have my bouquet. Her helper noticed and ran to get it out of the dressing room while Lauren motioned for the DJ to wait to play my entrance song. To me, that was such a relief to have had them there to fix my forgetful mistake and have the ceremony go off with ease. I would highly recommend her and her team. They were all so very nice and did such a fabulous job taking the stress out of my wedding day.

nts from my guests who saw her in action - she is incredible! Lauren made sure she was in the loop throughout the whole wedding planning process even though we had only hired her day-of coordination. She was prompt and thorough in her responses throughout the process. When we had to relocate our reception due to complications at our original venue, she helped us to locate new venue. She even provided vendor recommendations that met our budget. Lauren did a venue walk-through (which involved climbing a steep hill since the venue was paving at the time of our visit- she's a trooper!). While at the venue she gave great suggestions as how to decorate the venue and optimize the space that I had not considered- she has a great eye for detail! Additionally, Lauren had to arrange some decor, and I felt completely comfortable in leaving details in her capable hands. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Lauren confirmed all details with my vendors, and even caught a few mistakes, which due to her attention to detail were rectified! Lauren attended our rehearsal and ensured that my large bridal party (14 people!), parents, and in-laws knew where they needed to be and when. On the day of the wedding, she arrived at my house on time with her 2 fabulous assistants. She ensured that the limo taking me to the venue was packed with all of the belongings I needed for the big day. One assistant stayed behind at my house with my bridal party and ensured that the girls got on the limo with all of their belongings and locked my house up, so I had no worries!! Prior to the wedding ceremony, Lauren and her girls handled several unforeseen circumstances SEAMLESSLY!! Somehow, my hubby's tie and vest were not packed with his tux, but Lauren made sure that the tux rental company DROPPED OFF the missing items in time for our first look!!! AMAZING. All of this was done without my knowledge - that's right! I didn't have any idea until my Dad told me after the situation had been resolved!! This is just one instance of Lauren and her assistants organization and professionalism. There are several more that I am aware of, so I can not even imagine what they handled without me knowing! They kept me stress-free and HAPPY throughout the entire day - it was truly perfect. At the end of the night, Lauren was packing up all of my decor with a smile on her face, and she took time to let me know that she had packed our get away car with all of my bags (we were going to a hotel and then leaving for our mini-moon from there). I felt taken care of from beginning to end, and I owe a big part of this to Lauren and her amazing assistants. They truly were amazing! I said it before, and I'll say it again, if you are looking for a wedding planner/ day-of coordinator, look no further - Lauren is your girl!

someone who would appreciate my vision of the day and plainly put, get it done. Lauren and her staff were extremely accommodating and worked with my crazy work schedule to meet so she knew exactly what I wanted. She was responsive to emails, which were our primary mode of communication. She is detail oriented and very thorough. Her day-of-timeline was excellent and as a result of her coordination and execution, our day ran seamlessly. The day after our wedding, we had to travel out of state. Lauren and her team made sure that all of our wedding supplies were organized, packed and ready to go. My wedding day was incredible and awesome and I know that in great part due to Lauren and her teams' work. Thanks!
