More About Lauren

I am a full time mum to two beautiful daughters and a part time wedding planner based in mid Cheshire. I fell into weddings after planning my own wedding nearly 11 years ago having started my career journey randomly as a town planner! I love my job and have been part of many fantastic events over the last few years all over Cheshire.
I hope to continue to help more and more couples and to share in their big day as our business continues to grow with the help and support of my husband and the two youngest members of the team my daughters Autumn and Addison. I am also very lucky with my whole company from my amazing chefs, to our front of house team and also my army of excellent waitresses who help me to provide such an excellent service for all of my customers.
