Efficiency and joy!

Lauren and her team truly saved my life. I had an unexpected family tragedy two months before the wedding and our plans needed to change rapidly. We handed things over to TGT and they made everything so much easier than we could have imagined. Lauren and our day-of-coordinator, Katherine, were both so supportive and fun. Their work allowed my husband and I to truly enjoy our wedding day. 11/10!!!!

Hire The Get Together for your wedding!

I can't recommend The Get Together highly enough! As a producer, I had high expectations for our wedding coordinator but I was blown away by the careful attention, professional organization, and thoughtful communication of Lauren and Katherine. As soon as they came on a month before the wedding, I kept saying that things felt eerily calm and anytime I thought of something to worry about Lauren had already taken care of it. I can't believe how much effort and time they put in. The day went off without a hitch (as far as I'm aware, which is exactly what you want to say!) and we loved the kind and enthusiastic energy Lauren and Katherine brought to our planning and wedding day. We couldn't have done it without them!

Best of the best

PEOPLE!!! I could not be more thankful I chose to work with TGT for my wedding coordination. I work in the industry and knew of a lot of great vendors to choose from (which is awesome), but I was so very pleased I landed on TGT. I've loved working with their team on the production side of things and am so happy I got to experience them from a client perspective now, too. Lauren went above and beyond to make our weekend perfect. Ultimately, she gets. things. DONE. and is so professional... But has the best attitude and energy while doing it. Thank you guys SO MUCH for being so great at what you do! We will always remember yall :)

The Get T0gether Events Co. Founder + Month-Of Coordinator + Event Manager

Hey y'all! I'm Lauren. As a TGT client, you'll personally work with me as I iron out all the details of your day and create organizational documents that dreams are made of, before giving the binder over to your Event Manager. As the leader of the merry band of managers, I've selected and trained this team (hard) to be an extension of myself, providing the organization, relief, and FUN that this company was built on.

While my journey to wedding coordination was not planned (ha! how ironic), after years in large-scale, non-profit events, I can't imagine my life anywhere else. The ability to have a personal impact on two humans’ lives, is the greatest honor of MY life. I look forward to working with y'all!

I had the pleasure of working with Lauren on a wedding this past weekend. She was so organized and the whole night could not have been more elegant and put together. The value that a really talented event planner can add to a wedding is tremendous. I highly recommend her.
