Laura helped us plan our April 2023 wedding at the Sarasota Yacht Club. From beginning to end of the planning process, Laura and her team were fantastic! She helped us to stay organized and on track, which made planning so much easier.
She is very efficient and very easy to work with. Always quick to get an answer back to you or update you on something. As it got closer to the wedding, she had meetings planned perfectly to get every being addressed in a timely manner.
The weekend of the wedding was truly a breeze thanks to her and her team. She made sure vendors were coordinated and on time. Quickly addressing and resolving anything that popped up. Our wedding day was such a joy and truly made so much smoother by her attention to detail and organization. We are so thankful to have gotten to work with her for the past year and feel genuinely sad not to have something to work on with her.
Besides amazing event planner, she is an extremely kindhearted and wonderful person. Truly someone you want to work with and have alongside you during an important event. We can’t say enough good things! I would highly recommend her to anyone needing assistance or full planning or their event. Thank you Laura, we love you!!

Don’t think twice about having Laura and her team help plan your dream wedding. They worked with us for 6 months to make our quick April 2023 wedding picture perfect. Words can’t express how wonderful they are to work with, let alone how good they are at what they do! The details and work they put into a wedding are incredible. Laura, Ashley, and Katie made our wedding experience the best day our our lives. We want to do it all over again. They are with you every single step of the way and are always accessible for anything you need. We would of never done this without them and are grateful for everything they have done for us.

LDE is the best vendor we’ve worked with for any project. Laura, Ashley, and the rest of the team are incredibly nice, professional, and fun to be around. They went above and beyond in so many different ways. They made our wedding perfect; we could not recommend LDE more strongly!

For context, I was an out-of-state bride planning the wedding with my mother. Neither of us were too familiar with the local vendors or contacts we needed to involve in the process. I also never cared too much about weddings and definitely never thought about my own. We were starting at square one. I have a unique style that is important to me which guided our general vision, but we had no idea about a lot of the “low-level” specifics. I mostly knew what I did not want. I felt very out of my element, but Laura showed me the way and helped us turn my high-level concepts into concrete ideas. I’m also the type of person who tends to over-research things before taking action and has a hard time outsourcing tasks to other people; Laura immediately understood what we were thinking and we quickly trusted her to make many decisions on our behalf. She really is as good as she sounds!

Planning the wedding remotely meant that Laura and her team shouldered extra weight. My work also made it hard for me to be available during normal hours. Laura connected us with the perfect local vendors and made sure we were aware of time sensitive communications. Again, she and her team went the extra mile in so many ways.

The wedding was logistically complex from inception, but our goal was to make the event as easy as possible for our 150 (mostly) out-of-town guests. They stayed at multiple hotels while I stayed at an Airbnb with my family. The wedding required the attendees to move between three different spaces at the venue, Selby Gardens. Despite the complications, Laura and Ashley made sure the day ran flawlessly. My husband and I had an absolute care free blast.

Our wedding was incredible—even better than we could have imagined… and we could not have pulled it off without Laura, Ashley, and the LDE team. Easily the best wedding decision we made. We would hire LDE again in a heartbeat – Thanks for everything!
