LaneLee was born from a deeply personal journey, a mother planning her daughter’s wedding and realizing just how overwhelming, expensive, and impersonal the process could be. What should have been a joyful experience was often clouded by hidden fees, premium pricing, and unnecessary stress. Drawing on years of experience in event design, Lane stepped in to create a wedding that was elegant, comfortably within budget, and stunningly beautiful. With Lane’s creative eye and a strong foundation in business and planning, the twin sisters founded LaneLee. Their mission: to create personalized and beautiful events that honor your unique story.

I’ve worked in everything from venue management, catering to festival planning and corporate events but my first love is all things WEDDINGS! My love for plants and flowers started as a child listening and watching my father care for his house plants, but I truly dived in after his passing!

As a wedding planner and floral designer, I get to merge my love for sculpture, flowers and weddings all into one. My sole purpose is to make sure my clients are at ease knowing their event is tailored specifically to them! Your wedding will tell the story of YOU!
