Our belief on what make a perfect wedding planning experience

every Question has
a Place here

Planning a wedding comes with countless decisions, and it is completely natural to have questions along the way.

You may be unsure about timelines, vendor roles, design direction, or simply want reassurance that everything is moving in the right direction. Every question deserves thoughtful guidance.

Our role is to provide clarity and steady direction so you feel informed, confident, and supported at every stage of the process.

“Seriously could not have done it without them.”

Ashley was very helpful in the planning phase. She recommended a florist based on our preferences, and it worked out so beautifully. Courtney was on top of everything in the weeks leading up, and her and Stacey made sure everything went so smoothly the day of. I didn’t worry about a single thing in the big day. Even our guests commented on the attention to detail. Cannot recommend them enough.

when the Unthinkable happens, our Team steps in

Guests were seated. Music was queued. The bridal party was lined up. And just moments before the doors were set to open, the groom was gone.

What could have unraveled into panic instead required immediate composure.

While family tensions escalated and the timeline pressed forward, we adjusted the processional, reassured vendors, and quietly located the groom before concern ever reached the ceremony space.

In that moment, planning became leadership, offering steady direction, calm conversation, and the clarity needed to move forward.

Within minutes, he was centered and ready. The ceremony began seamlessly, and not a single guest knew there had been a crisis just outside the doors.

Because true event planning is not measured when everything goes right, it is revealed when everything nearly doesn’t.

Where do I begin?! Ashley & her assistant were the best organizers and planners that I could imagine having for our wedding. Ashley was always attentive to my questions or need for suggestions. They made the night flow as smooth as possible, especially the first hour when I was super nervous, flustered and excited all at the same time! The entire night, our families and friends couldn’t send praise enough for how wonderful they were. I would suggest Ashley and her team to anyone looking for planning services for their wedding or event. You will NOT regret it!

Ashley was hands down, the BEST wedding coordinator we could have possibly hired! Any questions I had, she had answers and her responsiveness was superb. She made us feel like our wedding day expectations were hers and she made sure every little detail on our wedding day went smoothly and perfectly. No matter the difficulty, she made anything I asked happen and exceeded all expectations. Ashley is a BOSS and I couldn’t have asked or wished for anyone better! We feel so lucky to know her.

The girl who Couldn’t even stay away from Planning her own Wedding

Meet Ashley

Growing up as the third Ashley in her class, she quickly became known by her middle name, Lauren, a name that would eventually become synonymous with thoughtfully planned celebrations and refined execution.

From an early age, Ashley was drawn to the art of gathering people together. What began as a love for hosting and planning soon became a clear calling. She knew wedding planning was where she belonged when, even with a planner of her own, she found herself deeply immersed in designing and refining every detail of her own celebration. That is where Soiree’s by Lauren was born.

With over 12 years of experience in weddings and events, Ashley leads her team with intention, organization, and a calm presence. Their role is simple: to remove the stress from your day, manage every moving part with precision, and allow you to be fully present in the moments that matter most.

the Team ready to tackle any Obstacle that may Come

Behind every seamless celebration is a team anticipating what others might overlook. From navigating last-minute adjustments to coordinating complex timelines and vendor logistics, we approach each wedding with composure, preparation, and thoughtful problem-solving.
