Best money we spent on our wedding!

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!

Excellent Takeover Coordinator

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 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!

All Stars!

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!!

Excellent!

Lauren from Elyse & Co is an absolute gem and is such an incredible wedding planner. From the moment I met with Lauren to discuss things, she has been a complete pleasure to deal with. She is super organized, friendly, caring, and so professional. My husband and I had a vision for our wedding and it turned out exactly how we wanted it and she nailed even the smallest details. We know that she worked really hard in planning the wedding of our dreams and we could not have pulled off the day without her! They offer a stress free planning, and believe me, it's true! She made the entire process much easier. Our wedding day flowed smoothly and I really didn't have to worry about timelines or schedules. She took care of everything. I didn't have to wear a watch, carry a phone of even try to memorize the schedule of events on the day of. Lauren contacted all of our vendors days before the event to organize and coordinate with everyone. She was with us all throughout the planning and was guiding us from the very beginning that we hired her until the very end. We cannot imagine not having her for our wedding! We were so glad that we chose her and we highly recommend Lauren to all of our family and friends!

Life savers

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!!!

The best of the best!!

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!

Personalized and stress free decor rentals!

I came to Laura looking for decor rentals, after falling in love with the decor of a previous wedding she did. She immediately set up a video chat with me to get to know me, my wedding and my vision for it. She was so sweet organized and helpful, calculating all the correct number of items I needed. Lauren was very easy to communicate with, she would respond very quickly and reached out to me as we got closer to the wedding day to reconfirm details. She’s got a great selection of items, flexible pick up and drop off scheduling and really great prices. Really happy working with her and Elyse and Co!
