Laura is a visionary! She planned our wedding at a family farm and made it come to life, it was one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. She was incredibly on top of everything, made sure the day ran without a hitch and on top of that was such a genuinely amazing person to work with and get to know. 10/10 would recommend to anyone and everyone.

We used Laura and Heather for our recent wedding, and they were absolutely incredible from start to finish. From working through all design elements, keeping my wife and my stress levels low, to everything in between. If you are looking to have the most incredible wedding ever, you must consider these two!!!

Laura and Heather - thank you for making our day so incredible - we could not have done this without either of you!!

Laura Olsen is the absolute best! She is the kindest, most organized and diligent planner, and her design vision is elite. She brought our dream day to life seamlessly. We had a tented wedding in Muskoka -- which is very complicated to execute -- and she dealt with all the logistical challenges and obstacles with so much grace. She is a total pro. She completely respected our budget, and her approach to planning was so down-to-earth. She knows what is truly important when it comes to special, timeless events. We are so grateful to Laura for all her hard work on our wedding, and there is no one we would trust more with future events. She is simply amazing!

My husband and I are so grateful to Laura Olsen Events for making our wedding day absolutely seamless! Heather and Laura were not only communicative, creative, and organized, but they also made us feel completely supported every step of the way. Our bi-weekly calls with Heather were productive, informative, and something we always looked forward to! Laura effortlessly brought our vision to life and curated a design and atmosphere beyond what we could have imagined. Because of them, we were able to relax and enjoy a stress-free day surrounded by our loved ones. They truly went above and beyond in every aspect. I wish there was a rating higher than 5 - I could not recommend them more highly!!

Laura was absolutely incredible and helped us bring to life our vision of a beautiful and elegant non-traditional wedding in two different venues. She was understanding and truly listened to what we wanted and didn’t want, and brought the vision to life. She connected us with the most wonderful vendors that matched our needs - from our flowers to our homemade cake - everything was perfection. On the day of the wedding, Laura was truly my right-hand woman, and I couldn’t imagine the day without her. She will forever hold a very special place in our hearts and I would recommend her for any couple looking for support in bringing their wedding dreams to life. She was definitely the most worthwhile investment!

We hired Laura for a few consulting sessions to help plan our June 2024 wedding. We met with her in the early stages of planning, in the middle of planning, and then for the final details. Laura was amazing to work with, and each session was really helpful. She also gave us useful checklists and notes. We would highly recommend Laura!

Mitchell & Scott

Our wedding could not have been as amazing as it was without Laura. Through all the consultation and design meetings, to the day of, Laura was a constant calming and supportive presence. Her impeccable design taste created a unique and personalized day for us that never felt ‘off the shelf’ or reused; she put in the time and effort to get to know us as a couple and what was important to us to deliver a tailored wedding. Her incredibly organized approach allowed us to stay ahead of tasks despite a busy schedule while keeping a constant eye on the budget. This was only emphasized by her constant availability to answer questions or give thoughtful advice. Her recommendations on vendors helped create an amazing and supportive wedding team. Her (and her team’s) day-off support kept us and our guests on time and stress-free. We could not imagine having planned our wedding without Laura and her warm and friendly disposition; we could not recommend her enough and thank her (and credit her) immensely for all her help in making our wedding the incredible day it was.

Laura & Dylan

As we approach our one-year anniversary, we’ve been reminiscing about how truly perfect our wedding day was - and so much of that is thanks to Laura. From the very beginning, she was great to work with.

She guided us every step of the way, turning our vision into reality. We had plenty of questions and last-minute tweaks, and she was always happy to accommodate, making the entire process feel seamless.

One thing we truly appreciated was her honesty - she gave us realistic insights into plans and costs, which helped us avoid any unexpected surprises. She even went above and beyond by custom-making a podium for us when we couldn’t find one that fit our vision!

On the big day, the space looked stunning. Laura took care of every little detail, allowing us to fully enjoy the moment without stress.

We’re glad we chose Laura to help us bring our day to life. If you’re looking for someone who will advocate for your vision, handle the details with care, and make the day feel effortless then she’s the one.

Thank you, Laura, for your dedication and hard work. You made our day truly special!

Laura did an amazing job, met with us well in advance, was present every step of the way, provided a very detailed spreadsheet that broke down the day into every possible step, and her staff at the event coordinated with the venue to run everything smoothly. We didn't have to deal with any vendors, set up or tear down, and it was a blessing to not think about that. All we had to do was provide design input and make choices, and Laura made our vision come to life. 10/10 would recommend.

Laura and her team are the best. She pays attention to every single detail and it was such a relief to know I could trust her to execute our vision flawlessly. Even when some things didn't go 100% according to plan, Laura was ready to make pivots and make sure everything was still gorgeous. Looking at her catalogue, she honestly has no misses, so I had all the trust in her to make everything lovely. She was with us every step of the way on the wedding day, and our guests commented on how hard she hustled around to keep everything running smoothly. Thank you so much!

I decided early in the planning process that hiring an event manager for the day of my wedding would be a smart move. Being pretty Type A, I felt confident in handling most of the planning on my own. However, after connecting with Laura Olsen and discussing her event management services in detail, I knew immediately that her company was the perfect choice for me!

Heather was assigned to manage our special day, and I can't express enough how grateful I am for her expertise and dedication. From the moment she stepped in, she handled every detail with precision and care, allowing me to fully enjoy my wedding day without any stress. The entire experience with them was flawless, and my only regret is not hiring Laura Olsen Events for the planning of the entire event!

Their industry knowledge and professionalism were truly invaluable. Thank you, Laura and Heather, for your outstanding work in making our wedding day nothing short of amazing

Laura and her assistant Mackenzie were our coordinator's for our wedding in July 2024, at Spencer's at the Waterfront. Through the entire planning process Laura was a great help, asking inquisitive questions, and provided insightful comments to assist in making our day special! Laura allowed for our day to be stress-free and everything went smoothly! From steaming dresses to helping pin boutonnieres she was prepared to assist in anything that we needed. We highly recommend Laura and her team!

We always looked forward to our calls with Laura; it felt like she was genuinely on our team, rather than just providing a service.

Thanks so much, Laura!

Erin & Andrew

We used Laura Olsen Events for month-of wedding coordination and we couldn't be happier with our choice! Laura and Heather kept us organized leading up to the wedding with monthly prompts of what needed to get done, long before our "month-of" started, which was super helpful! They are both extremely attentive to detail, and the warm, kind, and calm people you want to be around on your wedding day! They jumped into action quickly solving the inevitable hiccups that come up on a wedding day (rain, bouquets left at home etc.) so we never had to worry. Many family members commented on how quickly and smoothly family photos went because Heather kindly and efficiently organized everyone! We would use Laura Olsen Events again in a heartbeat, in fact, my sister was so pleased with Laura and Heather that she has hired them for her wedding next summer!

Laura was incredibly helpful from the very first phone call. Laura and Heather were friendly and professional, and always on top of all upcoming tasks and details. When we had some issues with our venue Laura went above and beyond what can be expected for her role and really advocated for us. On the wedding day, Laura and Heather were organized and caring, everything went so smoothy. Laura really looked after us on our day, from making sure we had some food to eat, to being a calming presence for the pre-ceremony nerves, to rearranging the room last minute: we had nothing to worry about because she had it all under control. If you’re wondering whether you should hire a coordinator, the answer is “YES, hire Laura!” because she will have your interests in mind and will make sure you are able to relax on your special day. Thank you again, I’m so grateful for your help!

Laura had less than five months to design and plan our perfect wedding day and she exceeded our expectations! With very little direction from us (Laura knew what questions to ask us!), guests received beautifully engraved invitations on handmade paper and Laura brought to life an incredible tented venue on our property that was bursting with stunning florals, guests were able to select their own appetizers, entrees and desserts that made them feel they were at an intimate gourmet restaurant and our DJ kept people on the dance floor until after midnight. And, somehow, she even made sure we had perfect weather! Throughout the process, I felt 100% comfortable and confident that Laura had everything under control. Her vendor management was outstanding. On the day, Laura made sure everything went smoothly. We've received so many compliments about all aspects of the wedding from our guests - and all the credit goes to Laura and the vendors she selected for the day!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Laura of Laura Olsen Events for our wedding at Langdon Hall this past summer. Making the decision to work with an experienced wedding planner like Laura was one of the best decisions we could have made! Laura was professional & organized yet fun to work with and she was beyond accommodating during the uncertainty of planning a wedding during the peak of the covid-19 pandemic. My fiancé (now husband!) and I were able to enjoy the planning process and feel fully present on the wedding day all thanks to Laura and her incredible team! She truly brought our vision to life and helped create moments that will last us a lifetime! Thank you, Laura!

Regan & Brett

I honestly can't say enough about how amazing LOE was to work with! Living in the states, we were forced to postpone our wedding 2x over the course of a year and a half due to COVID. Each time, Laura was flexible, understanding and always up-to-date on the latest re-opening guidelines.

After over two years of working with Laura and overcoming many COVID hurdles, our wedding weekend ended up being absolutely perfect! There is no way we could have pulled it together without her and I am so thankful for her guidance.

The LOE team is professional, organized, has great taste and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to plan an amazing wedding!

Making the choice to have a black-tie wedding requires a great deal of planning. When Leo and I decided to get married we needed to find someone who could help us design and plan our big day. Laura from Laura Olsen events helped us do that and more. She made our wedding dreams come true! Laura is AMAZING!! She is one of the nicest and kindhearted people you will ever meet. She is extremely talented and has a spectacular attention to detail. She styled, designed, and coordinated our wedding so beautifully! She was always available when I needed her and answered my countless emails. I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding planner/designer and support system. She truly made me feel at ease during the entire process. Thank you Laura and your team for everything!!

Laura is extremely professional, super friendly, organized and pays attention to all the small details. I knew right away that I would not have to worry about anything and she took care of every single detail and aspect there was towards our wedding. We cannot thank her and Lori enough for everything they have done in making this wedding completely seamlessly. Thank you both a thousand times!

Laura was super lovely to work with and I couldn't have planned my COVID wedding without her! She was accommodating, professional and on the ball. She offers custimizable services and is fairly priced. She took a lot of the stress out of planning a wedding, had great ideas, vendor reccomendations and soultions for any issues we had. The templates for planning and general guidance were so much help.

The day of the wedding went so smoothly, with her coordinating all the vendors and the venue so we didn't need to think about anything. We couldn't be happier with how our wedding turned out and it's in large thanks to her.

We decided to book a month coordinator and our venue recommended we reach out to Laura. She helped us sort out the day from start to finish for our original date of April 4th and we were so happy to have her “in charge” for our big day. THEN Covid hit and we had to postpone our wedding. Laura truly went above and beyond and helped us work with our venue to confirm a new date. We decided to proceed with a “micro wedding” this past weekend and Laura helped us plan the day and re-jig things to make it work (in a whole new area of the venue, with a much smaller guest list). She was INCREDIBLE and helped us create the most perfect day. We were both at ease and relaxed the whole day because we knew Laura (and her amazing colleague Mackenzie) were on it. Laura coordinated two weddings for us, was flexible, empathetic, calm and so kind to work with which we appreciated so much during this stressful time!

Laura Olsen Events is amazing. We had Laura help us with day-of coordination for our wedding in July. Meetings with Laura leading up to our wedding day were so helpful, she is super organized, detail-oriented, a wedding planner extraordinaire and the nicest person you might ever meet. The electronic planning tools she provided were also super helpful. Laura helped us get ready for the big day and attended our rehearsal. Day of coordination was provided by two members of the Laura Olsen Team; Kim and Lori. I cannot say enough great things about these two ladies; your help and support was so very appreciated, our wedding day was perfect. Highly, highly recommend! I need to have another event to plan, so that I can work with these incredible women again!
