I have no idea where to begin with this review because Lauren is so dear to our hearts. Lauren is a highly sought after photographer. My mom and I were super impressed by her after the first meeting. I knew she was the one. She makes you feel so comfortable behind a camera and is able to reel in a million people going so many different ways. We got sneak peeks the night of our wedding and everyone was amazed because they were nothing short of magazine worthy. I love every single one. Lauren is a photographer you don’t walk towards you run towards her and be prepared to be amazed every single time. She’s so talented and her spirit is genuine. She poured so much love into us and made us feel like we were her only clients. She’s skilled at her craft. Lauren thank you so much for being the best photographer and and even better friend. We love you.
I am SO HAPPY to have had Lauren photograph our wedding. She is so professional, personable, and amazing at what she does. Never once did I feel like she was in the way during the ceremony, and yet I know she got amazing shots. She made us so comfortable when taking photos and we were laughing most of the time. I've gotten a few sneak peak pictures already and they are so beautiful that I'm comfortable writing this review already. We couldn't have put our wedding photos into more capable hands. I recommend this photography company to ANYONE and EVERYONE. Especially Lauren!
I searched and searched for the perfect wedding photographer and couldn’t find anyone that made me feel comfortable. Then I met Lauren and we just clicked. We instantly became really great friends and she was so much more than just another hired vendor. She went above and beyond to create an experience and ensure all of our memories were captured. She was so valuable to us and we are so happy we found the most perfect wedding photographer.
Lauren was absolutely incredible. She is so personable and truly wants to get to know you. We chose her for our destination wedding, and when she arrived the day of our wedding we felt like we already knew her! During the entire process of planning our destination wedding, she was full of ideas and knowledge. She truly wants her clients to love their photos and the entire experience. She offers a second shooter, which was important to me. Being that our wedding was a destination wedding, we wanted to make sure every detail was captured, the locations and timelines were organized and everyone knew exactly what was going on. She went above and beyond what we expected of her. Of all of our vendors I would not hesitate to hire Lauren again if we ever have a need for a photographer. Lauren is 110% genuine and we LOVE our photos!
Lauren was absolutely amazing! She capture every moment perfectly. She helped us stay on track with everything and even calmed my nerves. She is very organized and has great ideas. Our wedding was on a Saturday and she had sneak peeks to us the very next day. She is so easy to work with, she will make you feel like family.
I don't even know where to begin except for choosing TSE to be in our life and a part of our wedding day was one of the best decisions we made! Lauren is the absolute sweetest and will always be considered a life long friend. She not only did a phenomenal job but she was caring and made us feel special and loved.
Lauren is absolutely AMAZING!!!! She is the most incredible person ever. I cry every time I see my photos. She capture our emotion so well. The experience she provided was more than I could have ever imagined. We received our photos within two weeks of our wedding and loved every single photo.
We booked Lauren for our wedding and she was the best! She took the most gorgeous photos ever and was a huge life savor over the planning process. It felt like we had our friend photographing our wedding and not some stranger.
Choosing Taylor'd Southern Events for the photography, videography and DJ at my wedding was the best decision I made. First of all, I am obsessed with all of the photos she took. But more than that, Lauren and everyone at Taylor'd Southern Events were a joy to work with. Your photographer is with you your entire wedding day. And, I can honestly say it was so great having them there to capture our wedding. Taylor'd Southern Events really cares about the work they do and they do an amazing job.
I hired TSE about 4 months before my wedding when I was drowning trying to do it myself. I was not the kind of bride who cared about details so it was getting difficult but Kim stepped in and worked literal magic. I had already booked an expectionally difficult venue and without Kim holding them accountable, my wedding wouldn’t have happened. My sister had gotten married the year before and her coordinator had been a bit of a dud so I thought this was a cost I could cut. Looking back, it makes sense now, that for such an expensive life event you should hire a professional to manage it. Kim put together the wedding I hadn’t hoped to dream for and made the process actually enjoyable.
We absolutely LOVED our engagement shoot with Lauren! First of all I had 3 vendors tell me they wouldn’t do just an engagement shoot, but since we met in school in tallahassee it was only natural that we went back there for a photo sesh! Lauren never batted an eye, she was super responsive and accommodating to our wishes and scheduling! I would book her in a heartbeat again because she made it so easy to be in front of the camera, she has her little book of examples for poses for us noobies and it was really so natural! Her photos all have what I think is a magical sheen over them making them, light, bright, airy, and just so beautiful! The site and ordering system is very user friendly and super easy to share with all your friends and family online! The night I got my photos I ordered like 10 immediately I was so in awe of her work! We brought our dog along too and she just worked her magic and captured the cutest photos of him I have! If I wasn’t having a complicated destination wedding in the winter in Colorado she would be my photog hook, line, and sinker!
I chose TSE because of all the wonderful things I had heard about them and they did not disappoint!! I had the pleasure of working with Danielle throughout the wedding planning process and she was heaven sent! She was such a valuable part of my wedding day. I have nothing but great things to say about TSE and how hard they work. It was the best money I spent!
Words can never express the appreciation we have for Taylor'd Southern Events. Hiring them was the best decision we ever made! Because of our planner Kim, we were prepared, stayed in budget and did not get stressed. She went above and beyond to make our special day perfect! Our wedding turned out better than we expected all thanks to her.
Lauren and Kim make the best team ever! I found them online and met with them in person and I was blown away by their amazing work and how sweet they were. Kim helped me plan and design the most beautiful wedding ever and I couldn't have done it without her. Lauren took the most gorgeous wedding photos and was so easy to work with. They communicated very well during the entire process and were very fun to be around. It didn't feel like I hired strangers to work my wedding, it was more like having my friends help me at my wedding.
I cannot say enough good things about Lauren and her team! From the get go, they have been a pleasure to work with. When I first reached out to Lauren, she gave me their pricing but was never pushy about me using her. She did my engagement pictures and I loved them so much I decided to keep her for my wedding photographer :) (it wasn't a hard choice to make). After I hired them for the photography, I also added on videography and bartenders (this company is literally your one stop shop!). She always responded so quickly to my emails which made planning easier on my end. Her photography and videography team are so fun to work with. I had a motley wedding party to say the least; Lauren and her team handled us like champs! If you're considering hiring Lauren and the Taylor'd Southern team, DO IT! If the pictures on her website aren't enough to convince you, check out my Facebook and Instagram pictures and videos (my name is Summer Lindsey). They are a professional, fun, down to earth team and I am so glad I chose them for my wedding day.
Lauren and her team were FABULOUS to work with. Planning a wedding in just 4 months was stressful. All of the local photographers in our area were booked for the date we choose so I started googling and came across Taylor'd Southern Events and requested more information. I was nervous not knowing anyone who had used them before. Lauren and her team responded quick and after speaking with Lauren on the phone I knew they would be perfect to Shoot our engagement pics and upcoming big day! Booking all over, Lauren travels keeping a bust schedule, she worked with us and we were able to schedule an engagement session within days of booking which took a lot of stress off. Not only did Lauren and her team travel for our Wedding they made our engagement picture dreams come true by traveling to our FAVORITE spot in Palm Coast, and suggested a Sunrise Session which meant an extra day prior of their time to travel down for the perfect shoot. My husband is VERY shy, and neither of us like taking photos so we were kind of nervous and hoping it would be quick. Lauren and her team were so down to earth and made the whole experience a breeze. Not only were they professional, friendly, and down to earth Lauren became a "go to" friend during my wedding planning. If I had any questions or needed advice I would text her and she would respond with ideas. Friends and family are still talking about how beautiful our engagement and wedding photos were. I highly recommend Taylor'd Southern Events! They were TOP QUALITY all the way around, you wont be disappointed.
Lauren and her team are the absolute best. If you want an amazing experience with the most beautiful photos you have to use the TSE team!
Best photography team ever! They treated us like we were their only clients. They photographed our proposal, engagement and wedding and all of the photos are beautiful. We not only hired photographers from TSE but we now have amazing friends.
I am so grateful we decided to hire Taylord Southern Events to help us with our wedding. Lauren and her entire team were professional, friendly and made our day much less stressful. Big thanks to Lauren, Kim and Lance.
After coming across Lauren's website and seeing her pictures, we just knew we had to have her at our wedding. Simply put, she did not disappoint. She exceeded our expectations. She helped us create the perfect timeline to ensure she would capture all the photos we wanted. She was so much more than just a wedding photographer, she was a wonderful person to have on our side! By the end of the night my bridesmaids Left left
We want to thank Lauren and Kim so much for making our wedding a great experience. We not only hired a great wedding team, but we made friends for life! We whole heartedly recommend them for every wedding.
Lauren was fantastic! We were very happy with the gorgeous photos that she and her assistant took. She was very organized and easy to communicate with. She captured our moments so beautifully, and we enjoyed working with her. We could not have asked for more, and I highly recommend her services!
Lauren did an incredible job from the engagement session to capturing the moments of our entire wedding day. She went above and beyond the call of duty on our wedding day and it is impossible to express how awesome of a job she does.
We could not be happier with our choice to use Taylor'd Southern Events for our wedding day. They did such a phenomenal job with our photos and video. Lauren's team is kind, talented, welcoming and amazing. They captured our love story perfectly, provided us with lots of helpful advice, and always made themselves available to us. We also hired Kim as a day of coordinator and she exceeded our expectations of what a coordinator does. Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made. Her work is so much more than just helping out the day of. Working with TSE was a wonderful experience because they really care about their clients and all of their hard work shows.
One word: Amazing! From a grooms perspective Taylor’d Southern events made wedding planning life a breeze. Kim the wedding planner went above and beyond my expectations really making my life a whole lot easier. It’s all in the details when it comes to weddings and Kim took care of all of them plus the 500 other things you wouldn’t think about, she was amazing. Pictures anyone can do those right…wrong! Lauren and Skylar were the bomb. I have been in a few weddings and I hate the picture process, it’s long, hot, and boring. However, Lauren and Skylar knew exactly what they were doing; turn this way, move closer, on three, it was that fast. In the blink of an eye it was just the bride and I getting pictures during the romantic sunset everyone dreams about on their wedding day. The pictures from our wedding are already hanging in the house because they are so good. Our teaser video was great all of our friends loved it and can’t wait for the full length video to come. Mary Beth was super easy to work with, she knew exactly what she was doing. She made sure to capture all of the special details like cutting the cake and walking down the aisle… but for the grooms sake she made sure she got the good stuff too like our awesome groomsmen dances and spectacular mother son dance so I am sure the full length video will hit a million views. Lastly but a very important part… DJ Rrane, and there is only one thing you need to know about him… He kept the party on fire! We were concerned people wouldn’t dance like a few of the other weddings we had been to, but people never sat down. I swear he even got an eighty year old great grandpa on the dance floor literally about to break a leg. All in all as a groom I don’t know how I would have done it without the whole Taylor’d Southern event team, hiring a DJ from this company and a photographer from that company would have been a nightmare. It was a weekend to remember and one of the best nights of my life all thanks to the TSE team.
Absolutely amazing! Words can't describe how thankful I am for Lauren and her team of wonderful people. They were a lifesaver and do incredible work.
I would recommend Taylor'd Southern Events to everyone. They did such a phenomenal job with our video and photos, that I cannot thank them enough. I know, after having our wedding, that one of the most important things that a bride and groom need to look into is their photographer and videographer. That is the only thing, besides your memory, that lasts from that day, until forever. They were able to capture such amazing footage that I did not know was possible. I've never really done any photo shoots or anything, and the way they made us look in these photos were incredible! Some of the shots they took were so amazing, we had about another 5 couples book with them, just based on the two or three photos they saw of us on our wedding day. Not to mention, the prices and their customer service is great. Someone always gets back to me immediately if I call with any questions, and we were shocked that the pricing for photos and videos were not outrageous compared to several other companies. We are so happy we chose them for one of the most important days of our lives. This is truly a great company that I would recommend to anyone!
We love Taylor'd Southern Events. We are so grateful we found Lauren's company. They were a life saver. We highly recommend the TSE team!
Lauren's team is the absolute best and our wedding wouldn't have been possible without all of their hard work!
Wow! Lauren and her team are unbelievably talented. We have nothing but praises for both, our engagement and wedding photos. Her very vibrant personality quickly makes you feel comfortable. Lauren's creative expertise allows her to see things most photographers miss. She was able to capture all the emotions of our wedding day so that every time we look at our photos, we are able to feel those same emotions. We also used TSE for wedding planning and coordinating. Kim and Danielle are the very best!!! As soon as I started working with Taylor'd Southern Events, I knew it was going to be the best decision! Kim immediately starting scheduling vendor meetings, and having her there with me for every single meeting was beyond helpful – she knew what questions to ask and knew every answer when vendors had questions. Throughout the planning process Kim would regularly send an updated month-by-month task list and a very detailed budget tracker, which kept me on track and saved me so much time. Everyone warned me that the weeks leading up to your wedding can be stressful with updating the vendors on final guest numbers, coordinating day-of schedules, trying to keep track of final payments, etc. but I can honestly say I didn’t have to deal with any of that because of Kim! I truly would not have made it through the planning process without Kim and her team, they helped make our wedding day even more perfect than we ever could’ve imagined!
We hired Lauren's team for our wedding to be our DJ, photographer and wedding coordinator. We were over the top impressed with the service they provided and how friendly the entire team was! Our planner Kim went above and beyond to help make sure our day went as perfectly as it did, the dance floor was packed all night from the awesome DJ, and then the photos Lauren provided us with were simply breath taking. Our day wouldn't have been what it was without Taylor'd Southern Events, thank you all so much!
We used Taylor'd Southern Events as a Day-Of -Coordinator. Without a doubt, this was the BEST MONEY we spent on the entire wedding! We already had signed contracts with well-known Tallahassee vendors for the venue, the caterer, the decor, the flowers. But I was nervous about details since I was coordinating the wedding from out of town. Taylor'd Southern Events stepped in and coordinated all our final details with the vendors (including a slide show that was a surprise to the bride and groom.) The day-of details were perfect - our coordinator made sure the bouquets and boutonnieres were at the right place, she helped up us with a minor flower crisis, and she took care of the bridal party before and after the ceremony. If you need a day-of coordinator to pull together your vendors, I totally recommend Lauren's company.
Lauren was professional yet friendly and warm. She was always well prepared and responded very quickly to all of our emails and questions. Our wedding planner Kim went out of her way to make a connection with us as clients before the wedding so that on the day of we were comfortable. Lauren and her team worked long and hard to make our wedding perfect. They were organized and timely and worked smoothly with all other vendors. The photographs were delivered ahead of schedule and were even more beautiful than I could have imagined. It shows through all of their hard work just how passionate they are about every client and every wedding.
They are the best!
The best wedding team ever!!! They were life savers and made planning my wedding so easy. I used them for DJ, photography, wedding planning and bartending and everyone was absolutely amazing. They were all very professional and went above and beyond to make everything perfect. My photos were so beautiful. The DJ kept everyone on the dance floor! Our wedding planning helped design and decorate my entire wedding and took care of everything the day of the wedding. I literally had no stresses! And they were very affordable! I recommend Taylor'd Southern Events to all of my friends and family and anyone I know getting married.
Thank you Taylord Southern Events for the wonderful experience we had. They shot our engagement and wedding and the photos were so great! They captured moments the whole family will treasure for years to come.
The services we received from Taylor'd Southern Events was excellent! They were very accommodating and put us at ease. They had lots of knowledge about the wedding process and even referred other great wedding vendors to us. They helped us during the entire year of planning.
Great people and great work.
I was so very happy I found this company for my wedding planning. The wedding planner is Lindsey and she is so wonderful. I enjoyed chatting with her about everything I wanted in my wedding and then the day of she was wonderful! There was no hiccups in my wedding..and still to this day everyone tells me how wonderful my wedding was. Lindsey is the one to thank for that. She made everything go so smooth. She made sure everything that I wanted in my wedding was done and if I wanted to not do something she made it that way. This company is amazing. I would recommend them to anyone who is getting married. They are always on top of everything they do. Lindsey was worth every penny I spend and more. She is an absolute gem and an amazing person. By the end of my wedding..I felt like I made a friend out of my wedding planner. Thank you Taylor'd Southern Events and a very special thank you to Lindsey.
I don't know where to start to describe how wonderful Marshall and Lauren are. From the very beginning, I told Marshall we love to dance and so does our family and friends! They did not disappoint! They kept us dancing all night long! The music was PERFECT! And the icing on the cake... Marshall covered an acoustic song and it was amazing!! People are still texting me and telling me how great the music was! Thank you both for making our wedding day so wonderful!
We chose Taylor'd Southern Events as our wedding photographer and DJ and also rentals and I would choose them again, and again and again. Everything from our first phone call to inquire, to planning our wedding, and then making our wedding day amazing. We feel so lucky to have met such a wonderful team of people. We are so thankful for our experience working with Lauren and Marshall having them captures moments of our wedding day that will be our memories for life. They are the perfect one stop shop for everything we needed for our wedding!
Lauren is a ROCK STAR!!! Working with her was the easiest and best choice we made in all of our wedding planning. She is not only a talented and amazing photographer but a wonderful person who is fun to be around on the wedding day. She was very responsive and flexible in working around our schedules and needs. She was all around an amazing person to work with and I knew the entire time I had booked the best wedding photographer.
Marshall and Lauren were amazing! They showed up ready to go and were so helpful in making sure everything ran smoothly. They helped everything to stay on track and made sure everything was stress free for us. Everyone had a blast at the reception with the great music selection and Lauren was so great with all of the pictures! I definitely recommend Taylor'd Southern Events for your big day!
My daughter and so in law hired the best wedding photography and DJ ensemble ever! Lauren and Marshall were absolutely phenomenal! I was very impressed with their level of professionalism, creativity, and attention to every little detail from pre-wedding to the very last song at the reception. Thank you both for all you did to make their day extra special!
My wedding was on September 24, and Lauren and Marshall were our photographer and DJ, and they were AMAZING! Before the wedding Lauren carefully coordinated a timeline of events with me, and ensured she had lists of all our important shots/songs/and events for the day-of.
Everything on the wedding day was done as we had planned, they were pleasant and professional, and I truly appreciated Lauren doing everything in her power to ensure all the important images of the day were captured for me, and giving guidance and opinions as the day went to ensure everything photographed beautifully. I'd recommend them to anyone!
Lauren and Marshall are wonderful! Lauren took the most beautiful photographs of my wedding. Seriously, some of them look like they're out of a magazine. She has an excellent eye for photography and her editing is beautiful and soft. Marshall performed twice at my wedding. He performed an acoustic version of "All of Me" by John Legend and there wasn't a dry eye in the room. His version is better than the original and my guest are still talking about how beautiful and special it was. Lauren also recently sent me Marshall's recorded version of the song and I am so thankful to have it! I have recommended Lauren and Marshall to others and will continue to do so!
Lauren photographed my daughters wedding and did an amazing job! She was very helpful throughout the entire process. She was knowledgable and offered guidance during the wedding planning phase. We found out she also had wedding rentals so we rented everything for the wedding from her. The day of the wedding we realized we didn't rent enough chair covers and needed more chairs. She offered to bring us more chair covers and was a huge life saver! She went above and beyond and really cared about our needs. She is a kind hearted person and genuinely wants to help others. She will forever be our family photographer!
Lauren and Marshall were one of my favorite parts of our wedding! We didn't have to worry about a thing. They were both a step ahead and allowed me to not have to worry about any of the music. It was seriously the least stressful part of the whole process. Not to mention, Marshall is an INCREDIBLE singer. People were coming up to me saying, "Where the heck did you find this guy? He's amazing!!" Would recommend this amazing team to anyone planning an event. The price is completely worth the service you get. Marshall, you need to get a gig to play music at areas around town so we can hear you more!!! If you're debating on whether or not to use Taylor'd Southern Events for your celebration, do yourself a favor and don't hesitate!!
I cannot put into words how AMAZING Lauren is. Finding the perfect photographer was at the top of my list for my wedding day and Lauren exceeded my expectations. Lauren will listen to what you want and respond promptly to any questions you have. She is extremely easy to work with and is great at what she does. She has a way of capturing every emotion that the day brings. I cannot thank her enough for the engagement and wedding pictures she provided. I would recommend her to anyone!
After contacting several different wedding vendors, we decided to go with Taylor'd Southern Events. They were the most helpful, quickly answered all of our questions and were very flexible with our budget. We ended up using them for DJ, photography and wedding planning. They were truly everything we could have possibly wanted and more!
So happy with the services they provided! Such a great team, everyone did wonderful work. I loved how my photos turned out! And they did an amazing job at making my wedding stress free.
I used all of the services Taylor'd Southern Events offered and they were such a huge help in planning my wedding, and making sure everything was perfect on the big day. Lindsey showed up at 9:00am and started decorating the ceremony and the reception. Marshall played the piano during the ceremony and performed our first dance live. He sang die a happy man by Thomas Rhett and played the guitar and he was absolutely amazing! Lauren photographed the entire day and the photos are beautiful. The team work great together and really know how to make a wedding perfect. I could not have done it without them! They made my life a lot less stressful.
