    Excellent Coordinator - Hire Lauren! 10/10

    When I was looking for a wedding coordinator, I wanted someone who could take as much as possible off my plate the month leading up to the wedding, and someone who could really take charge at the rehearsal and wedding day, so I could enjoy my time, fully, as a bride, without answering any questions or organizing a single thing. After I initially spoke with her, I was really impressed with her approach to coordinating a wedding in the weeks leading up to it, and hired her to be my day-of (really, month of) coordinator quickly! She completely took over the last month for all of the vendor and site coordination, created our timeline, reminded me about last minute to-do's as a bride, ensured our entire wedding party, family members, and vendors knew where to be and when, organized and executed my design for the reception tables - she even made sure I had water while I was busy dancing. This is a small part of everything she did that day to make sure everything happened exactly as we wanted. All we did that day was have fun, and everything went perfectly. We could not have handled that day without her - I would recommend hiring her to anyone (and will, for some upcoming brides I know!)

    Excellent and Organized Day-Of Coordinator

    Lauren was extremely organized and was instrumental in helping us create and execute our wedding timeline! We hired her as a day-of coordinator, which included her help with contacting vendors and creating a timeline, and it was absolutely worth the price. On our wedding day, we were able to celebrate with our friends and family without putting out a million little fires. We also paid the additional price for her to help put up/ take down our centerpieces, which was also absolutely worth it. Would definitely recommend Lauren to anyone planning a wedding!

    So worth it!

    Lauren paired us with Julia and she was an awesome month-of coordinator. She did so much behind the scenes that we didn’t even know about until later. She set up our decor literally exactly as we had imagined it. She had a positive energy and allowed us to enjoy the moment instead of worrying about logistics. We didn’t have to be watching the clock leading up to the ceremony, Julia was on top of it and made sure everything was where it was supposed to be. She was like a beacon of light whenever we saw her. We would recommend her to anyone!

    Made such a difference!

    Working with I Do Memorable Occasions made our wedding day so much less stressful. From the start, Lauren was so prompt and communicated clearly, which helped us feel confident moving forward. On the wedding day, she was there whenever we needed her and anticipated our needs before we could even ask. Our families noted how organized & respectful she was with everyone, making them so included & confident about where to go when. She allowed us to actually enjoy our special day instead of worrying about details. We would absolutely recommend her to any couple!


A typical wedding day will require just one coordinator.
The Full Plan includes assistance with booking up to 10 vendors, while the Partial Plan includes assistance with booking up to 5 vendors.
Absolutely!
Yes and yes!
Another coordinator on the team will step in.
