Hey there, I'm Lauren! I’m a unique blend of “Type-A Detail Lover” meets a “Laid-Back Enneagram 2,” which works surprisingly well while planning weddings! Let me handle the nitty-gritty details, so you and your fiancé can sit back, grab that mimosa, and enjoy your engagement.

Awarded Best of Zola
Lauren was absolutely SUPERB. Her attention to detail was like none other and she helped me and my wife have our dream wedding in March. What really separates Lauren is her on-site planning. Lauren was an absolute rockstar both the night before and also the day of making sure that me and my wife were both hydrated and having a good time. We had a wedding of over 160 people and Lauren was awesome with contacting vendors and taking the heavy lifting off of our shoulders as well as keeping us on schedule. You may not realize all that goes into planning on the front end, but once the big day comes you want a professional to provide peace of mind and both me and my wife the next day both agreed that Lauren really did her thing. Highly recommend.

Whether you're looking for a 'Day Of' coordinator or full planner, Events By Macy is here to help. From light and open to warm and intimate, we’ll create the perfect atmosphere for your special day or night. It's your moment - enjoy it!

Having Macy as the day of coordinator for our wedding was the best decision we made - our wedding day was 100% stress free! We had no idea about what needed to be considered when having a wedding, but Macy had all the questions ready and helped us think through every detail. Macy is so kind, thoughtful, organized, communicative, and took away all of our stress leading up to the wedding day by being so organized and prepared! She coordinated with the different vendors to ensure a timeline was created and distributed for when each would arrive. I didn’t have to worry about a thing except for confirming details for her. She made sure the wedding party and our parents were at the right spots at the right time throughout the evening and helped keep guests contained during cocktail hour so we could step away with the photographer for photos. She even assisted with clean up and helped pack dessert for us to take and enjoy later! Macy is by far irreplaceable in our eyes, we cannot recommend her enough! She will do everything it takes to make sure you have the best day and she was instrumental for ours. Thank you so much, Macy!!

She was so amazing and made the day just that much more prefect. I had no clue how I wanted the setup to look, but she took that burden off my shoulders and when I came back everything was amazing. The idea I had originally had in mind paled in comparison to what she ultimately place together. Everyone loved her and how she decorated the area. And for it to be such short notice, she was still able to make the space look magical. I am so glad I used her for our events and will use her to book any future events.

We booked Teyanna in 2022 for our August 2024 wedding and did not regret it one bit. It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Teyanna was beyond accommodating and informative throughout the entire process. Her precise, creative, and professional "client-first" mentality shone through. From countless Zoom calls to meeting up in person to select flowers, it was more than we could have asked for and were expecting. Her professionalism and creativity showed through when we had to improvise our outdoor ceremony to an indoor one thanks to a horrific tropical storm. She called us on the morning of our wedding to ensure we were doing okay and went over every detail with both my husband and me to make sure she and her team didn't miss anything. We cannot wait to work with Teyanna again in the future.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot express how grateful I am to have found Memories Made with Brittney LaShea! Brittney was instrumental in making the wedding of my dreams come true! Listen—I am a project manager by profession—super organized, type A control freak, very particular—so for me to hand over the most important day of my life to someone else seemed unimaginable. But from my first meeting with Brittney, I felt nothing but utter confidence in her abilities and she definitely proved me right! I hired Brittney for day-of coordination about 2-3 months out from my wedding which took place March 2025. Brittney is an EXPERT event planner who was able to give me so much guidance even though I was so far into wedding planning. She is also EXTREMELY thorough—“day-of” coordination doesn’t just mean you show up on the day of the wedding and Brittney understands that. She put in the necessary prep work, reviewing vendor contracts, creating a detailed day of timeline, coordinating with vendors, and leading the rehearsal. Working with Brittney in the weeks leading up to the wedding and in particular at the rehearsal, I was able to observe the intentionality with which she builds relationships with people. On the wedding day, Brittney was a literal SUPERHERO. She comes equipped with walkie talkies and the most thorough emergency kit I’ve ever seen! There were things that went wrong throughout the day (that’s inevitable) but Brittney shielded me from so much of that by making executive decisions and coming up with solutions on the fly, which allowed me to just enjoy my day. Cold sparks tripped the power in the reception hall—Brittney handled it. Wind kept blowing over the arch as they were trying to decorate—Brittney handled it. By the end of the night, I didn’t want to deal with the train on my reception dress—Brittney handled it (the woman literally stitched a bustle for me lol). I could go on and on forever about how amazing this woman is. My family, the vendors, and even random guests commented on what an incredible job she did. So I’m just going to say anyone would be LUCKY to have Brittney on their team.

I can’t say enough positive things about our experience having Johanna as our wedding coordinator. She is the best of the best (and we heard it from ALL our vendors!). It is so easy to be overwhelmed by the wedding planning process and to get lost in timelines and decisions, but having Johanna as a coordinator enabled us to focus on the exciting and fun stuff while making sure the little details fell into place. She is an excellent communicator, both with us and our vendors, and so meticulously organized.

I entered the Event planning market seven years ago through catering and setting up for events. I quickly learned that I loved being by the bride and groom throughout the entire event and watching their special day come to life. Getting to know the couple through the entire process and watching their dreams evolve into the wedding of their dreams stole my heart. It’s my pursuit to take all the stress off your plate and help you build the event of a lifetime. I truly want to become your best friend, go to person, planner, and even a punching bag when things just might not be going well that day, throughout the entire process

My daughter and I hired Chloe Deal to be our onsite day-of wedding planner and she was excellent before, during and after the big day! Pre-wedding, we had two zoom meetings to review what the plans were and what she would be doing to oversee it all. Chloe's communication assured us all the details would be completely taken care of on wedding day. The day of the wedding, we had a big surprise. An unexpected storm whipped up just as we were about to begin the outdoor ceremony. Chloe and her assistant quickly rallied to make last minute adjustments moving tables and displays under the reception tent, coordinating with the vendors on the change of plans and remained calm throughout it all. After a bit of insanity as our guests ran from the outdoor ceremony into the tent, Chloe and her assistant went into overdrive drying off chairs and getting them moved into the reception area which was a huge undertaking. The groomsmen were supposed to help but they were the only ones not under umbrellas and were absolutely soaked. Chloe easily helped guests find their seats and kept us all on schedule with the reception events of introductions, dances, happy hour, dinner, cake cutting, send off photos etc. Post wedding, we had to be all cleaned up by 9am the next day so the night of the wedding, Chloe and her assistant moved heavy tree log displays back to the woods, put everything that we needed to save into our cars or the locked space until we could pick it up the next day. Chloe's performance as our wedding planner was truly impressive as she thought of every detail and despite the unexpected weather, my daughter and son-in-law had a truly magical day complete with double rainbows! I would highly recommend her services to any bride and groom to-be!

So I usually don’t write reviews but I had to for this because my experience very easy and pleasant. I wasn’t left to plan my own wedding. The wedding planners here were very attentive and they basically helped me plan my wedding. Think of it like we planned my wedding together. The price was perfect too cause wedding planners are expensive. They even hooked me up with transportation and flowers for my wedding. Prestige Planning Co. was really great and I would recommend them to anyone.

Forever Moments provided us with excellent, dedicated, and reliable wedding planning services. Their communication style was clear, easy, and thorough throughout the entire process. The wedding planner kept us, the photographer and the couple, on track and on time. When the florist was unavailable, she helped to rearrange the decorations. She even sewed the bride's dress when it was ripped, going above and beyond to ensure our special day went smoothly. I would highly recommend Forever Moments to any couple planning their wedding.

Kristen and her team were amazing- her services were the most critical part of our wedding! She was so organized and on top of everything for the wedding, as soon as I hired her I felt so much more at ease with the planning process. I did a pretty much DIY wedding, my venue did not provide anything other than the venue and furniture, therefore, I had a lot of moving parts to my wedding and multiple vendors involved. Kristen took all the chaotic information I provided and streamlined the whole thing. She organized everything for me into a very easy to follow timeline and then was in constant communication with all the vendors. My regular hair dresser is the hair dresser I used for my wedding and she and I are friends. She told me that from a vendor's perspective, Kristen was the best coordinator/planner she had ever worked with. She was very impressed with her constant communication and all of the details she thought of in preparation of the event. Kristen and her team took my vision and made it a reality which was no easy task but she got it done. This was hands down the most positive experience I had in wedding planning/preparation and I would highly recommend Kristen for any planning needs!

I can't recommend enough booking through Raleigh Weddings as your planner. Carina was an absolute angel through the wedding planning process and all of our wedding day needs! She listened to all of our wants and made the day everything I could ever ask for. I couldn't have done all the details and vendor coordinating without her there to help guide and arrange. Can't emphasize enough how all my stresses went away once she stepped in and solved any issues before we knew they were a thing. The day of went so smoothly because at every step Carina and her assistant we're there to tackle things while still having fun with us! She's the best planner and person I'm so glad I had her by my side for the biggest day of my life! Don't hesitate and book her ASAP!
