We made the decision to hire Lauren as our day-of-coordinator, and it was no doubt the most necessary decision of our whole wedding planning process. Lauren has a beautiful personality. She is a delight to work with. Lauren is creative, experienced, and so extremely organized. She helped to alleviate so much of the pressure on my husband and I as she went above and beyond in her duties. She is calm under pressure, is great at improvising, and keeps the day moving so smoothly. She was extremely accommodating, and one of the highlights of our wedding planning process. Lauren is so talented in what she does, and has such passion for her job. We would recommend Lauren a thousand times over, and know that it was because of her involvement with our wedding that the day was such a success!! We absolutely loved working with her!!!

Hiring Elyse & Co. for our October 2023 wedding was the best money we spent, hands down. Lauren and her team went above and beyond to make our dream wedding a reality. From our first video chat with Lauren, her care, warmth, and professionalism shone through. She took the time to get to know us and what we wanted, and asked so many good questions to get us thinking about how we wanted every detail. We chose the coordination package and added on some á la carte hours for extra help. Even in the midst of their busiest wedding season ever, Lauren was always responsive and organized, and gave us so much invaluable insight when it came to vendors, budgeting, and our timeline. I ended every call with her feeling 10 times calmer and more reassured. We were able to fully relax and enjoy our wedding knowing Lauren and her team had everything covered. So many of our guests commented on how smoothly the day went and how much fun they had. Not only did our wedding look exactly like we wanted it to (or even better!) but it felt the way we had hoped. Lauren and her team were so lovely to work with, I cannot recommend them enough!

Without a doubt, hiring Elyse & Co for planning services was one of the best decisions I made when it came to my wedding. Not living in the Vancouver area we knew we needed a planner we could trust to bring our vision to life, and from our very first conversation I knew Lauren would be that person. We worked together for 18 months (miss it! miss her!), and every step of the way I felt supported and encouraged by Lauren + team. She helped us pick almost every vendor, and executed our vision to a tee.

Leading up to the wedding she accompanied us on vendor visits, handled all vendor communications, and was always available for a phone call to chat through ideas, and never made me feel like any of my wedding stresses were too small or silly!

I went into my wedding weekend feeling SO supported, and like I had nothing to stress about because Lauren and team had it covered. My actual wedding day went perfectly (had multiple people remark they had never seen a wedding run so smoothly), and if I ever had a question, Lauren or a team member was right there to answer. No detail occurred without extreme care into it, and every person from Elyse & Co was so happy, helpful, and kind! Everyone from guests, to bridal party, to our families remarked on how lovely they were :)

My husband and I are eternally indebted to Lauren, Rachelle & Remy for helping us make our dream wedding a reality, we love you all so much! You will not regret hiring Elyse & Co for your special day! Xo

Lauren is very organized and pays great attention to detail. Her questionnaire ensures that nothing gets missed. Her timeline is incredibly helpful for everyone involved. She continually checked in with me on the day of the event to make sure I had everything I needed. Absolutely nothing went wrong on our wedding day with Lauren running the show!

We hired Lauren and team from Elyse & Co for day-of coordination at our wedding this September. We were blown away by the perfessional service, attention to detail and care they put into the entire process of having a wedding. They executed an event that met and exceeded our every expectation!

Lauren helped us from the very beginning planning stages, she attended site visits with us, gave us ideas for decor and was a calming and supportive presence throughout the wedding planning process. She also took over vendor coordination weeks before the wedding and executed our vision for the elegant, modern country wedding of our dreams.

Lauren also helped us address and fix the little problems that arose before the beginning of the ceremony. And in the days leading up to our wedding day. We had some other vendor challenges that kept her on her toes but she handled it all with confidence and poise, which enabled us to enjoy our wedding festivities to the fullest.

We especially appreciated how they kept our actual wedding day as stress-free as possible for us. They checked in on us regularly, made sure we were enjoying our day, and problem solved in the background.

As a type-A, planner, it was not easy to let go of control, but Lauren helped me through. Both my husband and I would both highly recommend Lauren and the team at Elyse & Co if your looking for a wedding planning and coordinating company.

Thank you!!

Lauren and Remy were absolute gems to work with. Our initial consult was with the lovely Lauren, followed by two site visits with Lauren and Remy. There was never a moment where I felt alone in any of the (very) daunting process of planning a wedding - they were incredibly thorough and knowledgable and made me feel completely at ease, often pointing out things that I would have NEVER thought about on my own (like suggesting we put down a tent in August for sun protection)

Remy went above and beyond with our set up, run through, and day-of coordination. She made sure everything was perfectly executed minute-by-minute, and was constantly checking in with myself and my husband on the day-of to ensure we were happy. She even stayed on site until the very end making sure the take-down was to our venue host's liking. I also don't know any other coordinator that would get in her sweats to dig up holes in the sand to anchor our archway.... next level commitment to her craft!

We are so, so grateful for Elyse and Co and recommend them highly to to anyone needing wedding planning or day-of coordination.

Lauren was amazing to work with for my day of wedding coordination. She arrived on time and made the ceremony and reception area look absolutely gorgeous with all the decor. She was prompt in responses and very approachable. Definitely recommend Lauren!

We hired E&C (Lauren) as our wedding takeover coordinator for our party of about 100 people. She and her team were fantastic. They were so nice and kind, very organized, and made us feel taken care of in every way. They took control of the day in a respectful and effective way, making our plans come true, and making them even better. About 6 weeks out they created a schedule, coordinated all vendors, and took over. I leaned back and trusted them and I'm so glad I did, I was really able to be fully present and enjoy the day.

The day went flawlessly, because of this team. If you're thinking you don't need a coordinator, please please please think again and hire Lauren and team. They are 1000% worth it, I promise!

Lauren and her team are a wedding must-have!! I truly do not think our wedding day would be as perfect and seamless as it was without them. Throughout the process leading up to the wedding, Lauren was very honest with recommendations while keeping our budget in mind. We booked Elyse & Co for their Coordination Package and I truly think it is so necessary. Lauren created a full timeline for the wedding day - this allowed us not to worry at all about what we need to do next. Lauren and her team worked so well with all of our other vendors and everything went so smoothly. Aside from all of the behind the scenes work that Lauren and her team put in, it is so clear that she wants you to have a perfect day. Throughout the reception, Lauren came to check on us multiple times, just to make sure we had everything we needed - this was such an amazing touch and so greatly appreciated. I have had countless family members and friends who attended the wedding that have approached me to talk about how amazing and helpful Lauren was.

Thank you Lauren, Remy and the rest of the team for making my wedding day so special!

Even though I only hired Lauren (and the lovely Remy) to provide 'Day of Coordinator' Assistance, they showed they cared throughout the whole planning process through being unwaveringly supportive. They feel like your best friends just helping you plan and making sure you're happy. I cannot recommend them enough!!!
