    Elizabeth (bride)

    Lauren was incredible! She did a great job of ensuring everything the day of the wedding ran smoothly! She kept everyone calm and responded to any needs/concerns very well. We were so grateful to have her on the day of the wedding.

    Absolutely worth it. Made our wedding incredible!

    The moment we walked into our wedding reception, it truly felt like a fairy tale dream come true. I know that sounds corny, but this would not have been possible without Lauren's incredible vision, execution, connections, and flexibility to make magic happen within our budget. No matter how much you feel like you can do it all yourself, I promise you that you're wedding will be 100 times better if you have Lauren in your corner.

    The best decision we could have ever made

    Lauren made our dream wedding a reality. She helped us design our event and came up with an absolutely beautiful design concept based on our ideas and tastes. From there she found fantastic vendors and organized everything. She was always available to answer our questions and concerns in a very timely manner. She ran our rehearsal and whole wedding day flawlessly. She truly took so much stress out of our day and in comparisons to other weddings I've been a part of, it was such a smooth and special day. We cannot say enough good things about Lauren. Every person told us how special and incredible our wedding was and it was thanks to Lauren. BOOK HER!

    Best Wedding Decision

    Lauren is amazing! I am so happy that we decided to hire her as our planner for the wedding. She was extremely responsive, calm and eager to help. I was so indecisive about many things, and she helped me focus and make decisions (which I loved!). She ran our rehearsal for us and was so kind and warm. Day of, she set everything up at our venue. She also tore down and packed everything away that night. She did it so fast, I didn't even notice everything was done and good to go! she truly helped me and my husband feel like we were guests at our wedding. We didn't have to worry about anything. I am so grateful for her.

    Extremely Organized!

    We were so lucky to have Lauren as our wedding planner! From day one, she was on top of everything and always available for advice/questions. We were planning our wedding from across the country and couldn't have done it without Lauren. All of her vendor recommendations were wonderful (so we didn't have to spend time searching for the right vendors and we could focus on our wedding vision) . Our wedding day was perfect! We hardly saw Lauren, but she was working hard behind the scenes making sure everything went smoothly and flowed seamlessly. Wedding planning is extremely overwhelming and you need a Lauren to help you manage all the little details so you can focus on enjoying your special day! ( she new the perfect getting ready timeline/ reception timeline... She constantly gave us email reminders on what needed to be accomplished each month as the wedding approached. She was very accessible (responding to emails right away

    Wedding Planner

    Lauren is such a dream to work with. From the first phone call up through the wedding day she made sure everything was organized and just what we wanted. Lauren helped go take our ideas and bring them to life for the most special day. I hope we get to work with her for another event in the future. Thanks Lauren!!

    Great coordinator!

    We hired Lauren as a day of coordinator and I would definitely recommend her. She definitely made sure to give us peace of mind to make sure everything was taken care of on our wedding day, so we didn’t need to worry about anything! She was very responsive and also provided some great recommendations in the planning process.

    Organized, Responsive, Supportive, AMAZING

    Lauren has been exceptional! She is unbelievably organized and prompt in her responses. I completely trust her to make our day beautiful and exactly what we are picturing. She also goes above and beyond for her clients. She has always been available and supportive when I had a question or concern about anything. For example, I changed my mind about my wedding dress and she was great about helping me figure out how to navigate the situation. She has also been flexible and supportive of us during all of the changes we have had to make due to COVID. She supports her clients and definitely helped me feel like I could advocate for my needs and wants with other vendors. Also, her designs are beautiful!! She was so thoughtful in creating the vision for our wedding day and took time to talk to us and edit the plan until we were 100% happy. I tend to be someone who likes to be in control so I was not sure I would be able to give up some control to an event planner but I trust Lauren 1000% because she has been consistent, responsive, and supportive. In addition, we are living in California and she has made it very easy for us to plan a wedding from a distance!! I don’t know how we could have planned our wedding from CA without her! I cant say enough good things about her and how she manages her business!!!

    Look no further- choose Lauren as your planner

    My husband and I chose Lauren as our wedding planner and we were extremely satisfied with her work. The main reason I wanted to hire a planner was because I wanted to enjoy my wedding experience without any drama or stress. Because of Lauren, I was completely relaxed on my wedding day and the weeks leading up to it, which allowed me the opportunity to love every second of the wedding experience. She took care of things I never would have thought of. I had a few people ask me how I was so chill before my wedding, and my response was always, "because we picked a really fantastic wedding planner." Lauren was friendly and professional. You can tell she has quality experience under her belt. I can honestly say she was worth every penny. Thank you Lauren!

    Loved working with Lauren ❤️

    Our June 2020 wedding was almost fully planned by the time we had to decide to move it to 2021, so Lauren basically had to help us plan two weddings with of course a very stressed couple. This was in addition to us living in New York and unable to come back to Buffalo as often as we would like to plan. She was exactly what we needed- confident in her and our decisions, and a source of calm in the multiple curveballs thrown our way. The overarching feeling I have about our wedding is so relieved that it was so much FUN and everything went so well. Forever thankful for Lauren!!! ❤️❤️❤️

    Highly recommend!

    Lauren was amazing throughout our entire wedding planning experience! Our day was perfect and stress free because of her. Any issues that came up the morning of, she handled it all and we didnt have to worry about a thing! Our families raved after the wedding about Laurens sweet personality and what an amazing job she did.

    Knowledgable, Communicative, and Incredibly Kind

    I am the first of my immediate family and friend group to get married in Buffalo. Therefore, we had no recommendations as to local vendors or knowledge as to how to plan a wedding whatsoever. After an initial consult call, Lauren pulled my dream wedding together. She tangibly put together my vision with the best local vendors, worked within my budget, and communicated a very helpful monthly to-do list. Beyond her excellence as a wedding planner, she is an incredibly kind and communicative person. She is so prompt to reply to emails, texts, and calls and with such a kind spirit. When I was freaking out about my wedding in the midst of a pandemic, she was agile and pivoted my vision quickly. I am so thankful I found her and will be pushing my friends to book her for when they eventually tie the knot!

    Worth Every Penny

    When my daughter got engaged in February of 2020, Events by Lauren Marie was the first vendor I hired. I knew I needed significant amounts of help to design, plan, and execute her dream wedding. After choosing the venue (on Lauren’s recommendation), hiring Lauren was the best decision we made throughout the entire planning process. She was the perfect fit for us. Lauren worked with my daughter to understand her vision, and she worked with me to make that vision a reality. Lauren is sweet, knowledgeable, organized, and responsive. She made the process fun, and she made my daughter’s wedding unforgettable. We will miss working with her! It’s all in the details. If you appreciate that, look no further. Hire Lauren. She will not disappoint!

    Events By Lauren Marie's reply:

    Thank you so much, Carolyn! It was an absolute joy getting to know you, Emily, and your entire family!

    Baby Shower

    Events by Lauren Marie has now planned two events for me. I can’t explain how wonderful it is to work with Lauren and her team. She is such a kind and caring person and puts every ounce of herself into an event to make it special! We can’t thank her enough for going above and beyond for our baby shower!

    Exceeded Expectations!

    Lauren has been such a pleasure to work with. She responds in a timely manner, is extremely organized, sweet, and has the entire wedding planning process under control. Unfortunately, my wedding had to be postponed due to Covid, but Lauren handled it like a true professional! She immediately contacted all vendors to reschedule. She has been so reassuring during the entire wedding planning process. I completely trust her with everything! I highly recommend hiring Lauren!

    Best Money Ever Spent!!

    We hired Lauren because we knew nothing about planning a wedding. To make things even more complicated, we wanted to plan a destination wedding in Buffalo, NY....a place that we had never been. In seven months, Lauren helped us put together our perfect wedding, and one that most guests agree was the best wedding they've ever attended. Lauren was super responsive (usually replying to emails within minutes or hours), provided a seemingly endless list of vendors for every conceivable service, and really took the time to get to know us and our personalities to allow us to plan an event that reflected our favorite things. Lauren asked the right questions, put us in touch with the right vendors, and made sure everything was perfect before arranging for any service or approving any expense. We had absolutely no stress leading up to the wedding, and I'm 100% confident it was because we had Lauren taking care of all the small details. I would recommend Lauren to anyone, and am so happy we chose to work with her to plan our amazing day!

    The Most Amazing Experience

    Lauren is extremely organized and very professional. She does what she says she is going to do. She doesn't make you chase her, she is always available. I met with her for the first time and she immediately understood the vision for our wedding. I gave her a lot of freedom to choose vendors and designs because I knew she would make it perfect. And she absolutely did. Everything was better than I could have ever imagined and nothing about our wedding wouldn't have been possible without her. Thankful that she truly gave us the wedding of a lifetime!

    Outstanding communication and service!

    Lauren went above and beyond as our wedding coordinator. She was not only extremely responsive, but she was also friendly, organized, and she took the worry out of our minds. We were completely at ease while she was working with our difficult outdoor venue. Everything fell into place and we couldn't have done it without Lauren's incredible and talented services.

    Thorough and proactive - highly recommended!

    Lauren was extremely thorough throughout the planning process and thought of everything that we wouldn't have. She was proactive about everything and helped me immensely on the day of the wedding -- I didn't have to worry about anything except enjoying the day. I would highly recommend her services!

    I would 100% recommend her.

    As the week of the wedding approached I could not have been happier about having Lauren on my side. First off, she is just naturally a kind, sweet person who is extremely easy to communicate with. Combine that with her organization skills, knowledge of weddings and everything that surround it and her ability to be one step ahead at all times and you get an amazing coordinator to make your day perfect. Our wedding day went perfectly, we even managed to be ahead of schedule, and I fully contribute that to Lauren being there. She is constantly in the background making sure everything is exactly as it should be, and her price was extremely reasonable for the amount of time and stress she saved me. I would 100% recommend her.
