I don't know what we would have done without Lauren on our wedding day! She kept our wedding day running so smoothly. Our family and friends raved about how helpful Lauren was throughout the entire wedding. She helped put us all at ease. She was so helpful throughout the time leading up to our wedding and recommend fantastic vendors. Do not hesitate to hire Lauren to help you plan your wedding! I will be recommending her to all of my friends.

Hiring Lauren for my wedding was the BEST decision! On a day where it felt like chaos was surrounding me with everyone getting ready and going in a million directions, she kept me remaining calm and was the one person who listened to me the entire night, no matter what. Even my husband was so impressed with how well she managed the entire night for us. She is so caring and professional. I would recommend her to any bride looking for a planner!! Thank you Lauren for everything!

Lauren Zizza helped plan our 70-person wedding in September, and she was honestly a life saver. We had never planned an event like this and didn't know where to start - she worked with us from the beginning to align on our vision and really helped to bring it to life while also keeping cost in mind along the way. We had an issue where we needed to change venues midway through, and she helped provide a list of suggestions and then worked really we...More

Lauren is the absolute best! She is so on top of things and prepared. I could not have gotten through the month before prep without her! On the wedding day, she kept everything running smoothly and on time and she handled any issues that arose so that I didn't even know about them! She was the best right hand man I could have asked for. Just as importantly, she is so fun and has a great energy to have around on your wedding day! Thank you so much Lauren!

Lauren was so incredibly helpful in planning our wedding day and she was such a pleasure to work with!

Lauren Zizza Events is both extremely detail-oriented yet so calm and serene which makes for the perfect experience as a bride. She was an invaluable support making suggestions from the earliest days of planning down to all of the specific last minute decisions that needed to be made.

I manage a wedding band, and we worked with Lauren together on a wedding in September. She was absolutely incredible! So easy to work with in the lead up with planning, details for the night and paying attention to what was important to our couple as well as what was important in ensuring the night was smooth and successful, and so kind and clear on the night!! Can't recommend her enough and hope to work together in the future! She's a vendor's A...More

Lauren planned my May 2022 Wedding at Troutbeck - we did a full plan and had her for the entire weekend and let me tell you, SHE WAS AMAZING. She was so on top of everything from day one - making sure we stayed organized and planning everything in advance so we did not have any last minute fires. She was also such a pleasure to work with - I truly do miss talking to her on a regular basis now that the wedding is over. During the wedding weekend, ...More
Morgan Firestein
Lauren went so above and beyond in every way. I first contacted Lauren just a few months before my wedding (I originally thought I could do everything myself without a coordinator/planner - I was so wrong!!). Lauren was really flexible and worked it out so that she would start working with us two weeks out, which was perfect for us and hard to find with a lot of other event planning companies. Even though she wasn't supposed to come on board unti...More

Hiring Lauren as our wedding coordinator was one of the best decisions I made! She is super professional, organized, and overall- a joy to be around! She made sure we stuck to our timeline, contacted our vendors in advance to iron out details, and made sure we had everything we needed for the big day.

Hiring Lauren was one of the first decisions I made, and it ended up being the BEST decision.

Ashley Genovese
Lauren flawlessly planned not one, not two, but three separate versions of our wedding day! Planning a wedding during a pandemic isn't an easy thing, and due to COVID we had to make the decision to shift back our day several times. Lauren was there every step of the way and made moving around dates, vendors and timelines look easy. She seamlessly handled all the logistics which took a HUGE amount of stress off of me as the bride. One thing I loved about having her as a planner is that she is very detail oriented. She made us a very thorough tim...More
Catherine Smith
Where do I even begin? I immediately fell in love with Lauren's entire ethos when we started working together on my wedding. While the wedding is still a ways away, she has already made the entire process incredibly seamless and such a pleasure. She recently planned a FLAWLESS and gorgeous dinner during a bachelorette trip abroad for eleven friends. I didn't have to lift a finger...and she created the dinner of my dreams. I can't wait to see what she's able to do for our wedding!
Cristina Dolan
I had the good fortune to work with Lauren for a very special bridal event! She made the entire process an absolute pleasure, from beginning to end. Lauren was extremely professional, organized, hard-working and driven. She is very creative and detail-oriented and her ability to execute a vision is rare! Lauren’s enthusiasm and positive energy is incredibly uplifting and made her a joy to work with. I look forward to working with Lauren again and I highly recommend her!

Working with Lauren was the best decision we made. Planning a wedding across the country is no small feat, but with Lauren's help and expertise throughout the planning and the execution of our day, she eliminated all our stress so we could focus on enjoying our time. Lauren was super responsive and always triple-checking to make sure our needs and wants were being met. We wouldn't hesitate to work with her again. UPDATE: Lauren really is an AMAZI...More
Sierra & Lorenzo Ottaviano
Lauren was our day-of planner for our July 20th wedding - but she did so much more! She was a pleasure to work with, meticulous, organized, and focused. Throughout the day, we felt reassured that we were on schedule - and that we could just enjoy the party! - while she handled everything with a calm, professional demeanor. Especially in the week before, Lauren was a lifesaver! So many last minute changes came up, she was flexible and responsive. ...More
Iris Wong
Lauren is the best month-of coordinator we could have ever asked for. She was so understanding and flexible when we had to reschedule our wedding due to Covid19. When it got closer to the wedding, she was proactive in coordinating with our vendors (without me asking) and provided great ideas and suggestions as we were finalizing the small details. She created a document with all the details for th e wedding and timeline. During the wedding day, she always checked in on me to make sure I had everything I needed and if I was ok. She made sure we were on or ahead of schedule and the day went so s...More

Words cannot describe how amazing Lauren has been throughout our wedding planning process! While I wish this review was post wedding - Unfortunately, due to the current health climate, my fiance and I had to cancel our destination wedding in Brooklyn this upcoming May. (We currently reside in/have been planning afar from Pittsburgh, PA). Thankfully , however, we have Lauren on our team. From the v ery beginning of the process, and up until now (as we work on navigating cancellation contracts with our vendors), Lauren has helped to relieve us of any added stress. She is extremely organized, att...More

I cannot even begin to explain how amazing it was to have Lauren for my wedding and during the wedding process! I am very detail oriented and always need to be in control and Lauren was able to alleviate any stress or concern I had for the day of and days leading up to the wedding. She is worth every penny and then some. You don’t realize how crucial it is to have someone like her by your side to make the day go by smoothly and without a hitch. Even if there was a minor hiccup, she remained super calm and always offered multiple options and solutions to the problem. I can go on and on but I wi...More
Alyssa McArdle
We absolutely loved working with Lauren! Throughout the entire planning process she was responsive, organized and a great sounding board when I found myself overwhelmed with choices and ideas!
We hired Lauren for our wedding which was originally supposed to happen in October of 2020. Lauren worked so closely with us as we monitored the COVID situation and struggled with the difficult decision to postpone our wedding. We eventually had to and we are so grateful we had Lauren through the entire postponement process. She walked us through how to inform guests, helped us reschedule our vendors seam...More
Cristina DelPrete
My wedding day was absolutely flawless thanks to all of the time and effort Lauren put in. Prior to the day of, she went above and beyond to be responsive, to get in touch with each of my vendors, and make sure we were staying on track with planning. On the actual day, she was everywhere I needed her to be without me asking - she wa always a step ahead ensuring that there were no hiccups during the day. My venue had many different requirements that Lauren was on top of. I could not recommend working with her more - she is the best!!
