Lauren Stewart

At an early age Lauren began planning her own birthday parties which later developed into planning dinner parties and then her own wedding.

Lauren finds a natural pull to the stories of others. She believes that every event tells a unique story, and is dedicated to helping each client bring their vision to life. She has found joy in helping curate individualized, beautiful, stress free events. Whether it's a curated dinner, wedding, or special celebration, she is passionate about working closely with each client to create unforgettable experiences that leave a lasting impression.

When Lauren isn’t planning something big, she is on the search for a gluten free sweet treat, listening to Taylor Swift, hanging with her dog, or curled up with a good book!
