Co-Founders
Friends and colleagues for close to 10 years, Kirsty and Lauren were fortunate to be a part of one of Chicago’s top award-winning wedding planning teams. Kirsty, a Cleveland native, and Lauren, a lifelong Chicagoan, decided to join forces to build a brand that reflects their visions for timeless and aspirational weddings and events.

Always the social planner amongst her friends (no occasion is ever too small to celebrate!), Lauren's event planning career began with a catering job in college, which sparked a curiosity - and now a passion - for the details and magic of event planning. She loves getting to know her clients and asking thoughtful questions to help them articulate their dream event and refine and expand upon even the smallest ideas. Past clients have said Lauren can better explain their vision than they could! Lauren curates memorable experiences and makes meaningful connections throughout the entire planning process.
Friendly, calm, and quick-thinking, she keeps her cool in even the most intense situations. From meetings to the big day, Lauren brings positivity to every step of the way and ensures the planning experience is seamless, organized, and more fun than you thought it could be! She lives for what she calls the "jaw-drop" - when her couple see their reception for the first time, seeing logistical puzzle pieces fall perfectly into place, and allowing her couples and their families to fully live in the moment. While it's bittersweet when everything wraps up, Lauren loves staying in touch with her clients and following their lives after the wedding.

With strong emotional intelligence and a keen ability for resolution, Kirsty can help tackle any stressor and guide you through decisions with ease. Kirsty understands that each clients’ story is paramount to building their ideal wedding day, which is why she is especially invested in fostering a close and unique relationship with each client.
