Lauren is absolutely amazing! She is so sweet and kind, and from the very first phone call you feel like you’ve known her your whole life. My wedding ended up being during the middle of the biggest snowstorm Arkansas has probably ever seen, and she still made everything happen and in a safe manner. Her dad also helped her, which as someone with a deceased Hispanic father, it brought me so much additional joy to have her dad there. She went above and beyond to make sure our day went smoothly and was beautiful! She hand picked ALL the decor with me, and was incredibly detail oriented and it made all of the difference. She is worth her weight and more in gold. You will not find a more caring coordinator than Lauren!
I cannot recommend Lauren and her team enough! From the beginning, she went above and beyond her role as a day-of coordinator. She truly became an integral part of making our wedding day everything we dreamed of. Her professionalism, creativity, and organization were unmatched, but what stood out most was her calm, reassuring presence - especially when unexpected rain threatened to derail our plans. She kept me calm, adjusted everything seamlessly, and ensured every detail was perfect. Lauren and her team are not just phenomenal coordinators, they are miracle workers! If you want your special day to be stress-free and unforgettable, she's the one to call!

Awe Chilai, thank you so much! We absolutely loved helping you celebrate yalls big day!
Lauren and her team were ROCKSTARS at our wedding! Everything went so smooth and so well!
We hired Lauren as the wedding day coordinator but she did so much more than just running our ceremony & reception. First of all, we were coming out of state & looking for vendors sometimes was challenging. Lauren referred so many great vendors & helped so much with ideas and planning. Then, I just couldn’t believe how smooth everything was going the day of the wedding!!! Everything fell into its perfect place because of Lauren! The final result: happy bride & groom, fully satisfied guests & tons of great memories!

Thank you SO much! We had an absolute blast celebrating yall! So happy to be a part of yalls big day!
Any questions?
I truly wish I could give Lauren & her team more than 5 stars. I cannot imagine having a better coordinator. She did a PERFECT job as a 'Day Of' coordinator for my wedding and absolutely nothing went wrong (& if it did I never knew because she is just that good). You cannot beat her prices & she is honestly worth more than she charges!!!

You are so sweet! Thank you so much, your wedding was so beautiful and we were so happy to help contribute to make your day memorable!
Lauren was very organized, throughout, and sweet! Because she was my day of planner, I did not stress the minute details knowing that she had everything thought out and under control. Ultimately because of Southern Grace Planning tools, I felt at ease leading up to the wedding. She made sure everything was executed the way my husband and I wanted it to be while also being logical. Based on her experience, she was able to make recommendations that made our wedding execution seamless. When we wrapped up our ceremony early, she encouraged us to take some time alone together to soak it in during that hectic day. I could not recommend Lauren and Southern Grace more!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lauren as my wedding planner, and I cannot express my gratitude enough for the incredible experience she provided. From the initial planning stages to the big day itself, Lauren went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect, and the result was nothing short of magical.
One of the standout qualities of working with Lauren was her ability to make the entire process exceptionally easy. She seamlessly guided me through the months of planning, providing valuable insights and suggestions while always respecting and incorporating my vision. Lauren's expertise and attention to detail were evident from the start, and I quickly realized that I was in the hands of a true professional.
What sets Lauren apart is not only her exceptional planning skills but also her ability to cultivate a genuine connection with her clients. Throughout the planning process, a friendship blossomed, and I found comfort in knowing that Lauren was as invested in making my wedding day special as I was. Her warmth, patience, and enthusiasm made the entire journey enjoyable and stress-free.
When the big day arrived, I was truly blown away by the transformation of the venue. Lauren took my vision and brought it to life in a way that exceeded my wildest expectations. Every detail was meticulously executed, and the space looked like it was straight out of a wedding magazine. The atmosphere was enchanting, creating the perfect backdrop for the most important day of my life.
The impact of Lauren's work extended beyond the wedding day itself. The pictures from the event have sparked numerous inquiries from both guests and friends on social media. I am delighted to share my experience and, without hesitation, direct anyone inquiring about my wedding to Lauren. Her talent and dedication to her craft are truly commendable.
My wedding was nothing short of perfect, and a significant portion of the credit goes to Lauren. Thank you, Lauren, for your unwavering commitment to making our special day unforgettable!! Your professionalism, creativity, and genuine care made the entire process a joy, and I am forever grateful for the wonderful experience you provided. If you're seeking a wedding planner who will turn your dreams into reality, look no further than Lauren – she is an absolute gem in the world of wedding planning.
