My husband and I hired Laurel to be our day of wedding coordinator for our wedding on July 19th and we could not have been happier with our choice and Laurel’s services!!! From the beginning Laurel was very responsive and always available to answer any questions I had! She attended multiple meetings at our venue to discuss day of details etc without hesitation! Laurel was extremely organized and always on top of anything I mentioned I would need her to help with on wedding day! Come wedding day we truly could not have had such a seamlessly perfect wedding without all of laurels hard work!! She knew exactly what needed to be done and executed it perfectly!!! She set up decor, made sure we stayed on schedule, helped us with anything we needed as little things came up throughout the day, made sure we had drinks in hand, and confidently made decisions regarding logistics and decor when we had to move our cocktail hour inside due to rain! She was truly incredible and a joy to work with!! Our wedding would not have been what it was without her, so thank you Laurel!! Most importantly having Laurel there allowed my husband, family and I to truly enjoy each moment of the wedding as we had nothing to worry about, she had it covered, a brides dream come true!!! I would highly recommend Laurel and her team for all your wedding coordination needs!!! Thank you again!!

Lauren and Julia truly made the whole experience planning our wedding so stress free. Julia was our day of coordinator and honestly she made the day so special and I did not have any worries! Lauren in the beginning made the decor shopping and small details decisions experience much easier as I am not creative at all! Also the communication and planning with the vendors was impeccable. They took away all the chaos from my husband and I and everything went off without a hitch and if it didn't we did not know! 10 /10! I would strongly reccomend them for every wedding! Super organized, professional and most importantly to me caring and patient. Thank you so much Julia an Lauren!
The BEST Coordinator!

Lauren from I Do Memorable Occasions was truly the backbone of our wedding day. From the moment we started working together, she brought a calm, confident energy and an exceptional level of organization that immediately put us at ease. Thanks to her, our day was completely stress-free and flowed seamlessly from start to finish. She created a detailed and thoughtful timeline that kept everything on track, and her communication with all of our vendors was outstanding. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing because Lauren handled every detail behind the scenes so we could be fully present and actually enjoy our wedding day. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and warm demeanor made the planning process so much more enjoyable. She was always one step ahead and made sure every element was perfectly in place. She helped us set up our wedding and bring our personals back at the end. If you're looking for someone who will bring peace of mind, flawless coordination, and genuine care to your wedding, Lauren is the one. We are beyond grateful for everything she did to make our day so memorable.

So so so thankful that we hired Lauren! She went above and beyond our expectations and most of all, she kept us on track. She was easy to communicate with and very responsive for the whole year we worked with her. We were able to have a worry free wedding day experience thanks to her. She also did an extremely great job at setting up all our decor and making our ceremony and reception look STUNNING. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants to have a stress free and amazing wedding process. 11/10 on her services.
