Hi, Lauren! Thank you so much for talking with me this morning. I have been in this business as a vendor for eight years, and I have met a lot of planners in the DMV area, but your way of talking about your client experience and your approach to events was super refreshing. Especially this year — in all the chaotic calm of navigating things in a new way — I’ve found myself reexamining what I want our industry to look like, both in terms of inclusion and our impact on our clients and the world around us. It was just lovely to hear that you felt the same way and to see how you’ve been managing growth with our responsibilities to one another, too, so thank you for a great chat!

Four words: You saved my wedding. That’s really all I can say about that! With only about 3-4 months, you took a mess of a situation, and were able to make it into a beautiful and elegant event. I cannot thank you enough for all you did for us. Your attention to detail, quick follow up, insanely thorough responsiveness, and just overall positive disposition made this whole thing possible. And since I had no idea what I was doing, you were able to suggest and recommend so many wonderful ideas regarding decor and details. Everything you did was above and beyond my expectations! I wish there was a better way to thank you, but seriously…thank you!

I just want to say I love how real & down to earth Lauren is–it was exceptionally refreshing to not have to put on the perfect bride front around her and be able to speak my mind! I’m sure some couples may not be like that, but for us, it was amazing to be forward and honest (and drop some f-bombs LOL), and have Lauren do the same! There’s so much pressure as a bride & engaged couple to be perfectly polished, and I don’t personally know anyone who’s like that in real life (or at least if I do, they’re 0% fun), and being able to present Lauren with our real selves, and having her be able to have that knowledge and apply it when handling vendors & decisions & planning was SUPER awesome.

Lauren and her assistants are beyond awesome. Our original wedding planner had an unexpected health issue and had to cancel our contract but she recommended Swoon Soiree. Lauren is professional, efficient, knowledgeable, and so nice to work with. Planning a wedding is so stressful for the bride and mother of the bride but Lauren was able to provide so much guidance and assistance that it made the experience so much better. She was so responsive to our needs and ready and able to answer any questions we had. I can’t believe that there is a better person in our area that could do a better job. Lauren and Swoon Soiree are the best!!!!!

I cannot say enough positive and complimentary things about Lauren and the excellent service she provided. From the moment we first spoke on the phone all the way to following up after the wedding with our florist, she has made us all feel at ease and confident that our event would go as planned. Her professionalism, knowledge, and commitment to excellence was apparent the entire time we worked together. She absolutely played a key role in making our wedding day the best day of our lives!

Lauren always had great ideas/ solutions to “problems” or obstacles. Out of every person we worked with for the wedding, she was the most reliable and made us feel the most at ease.
