Incredible
It is hard to put into words how amazing Elegant Affairs is. We worked closely with Tiphany and she made us feel like the most special bride and groom in the world. Our day was more than perfect because of this team and we are SO grateful! I would not change a thing from our wedding day! -

8.25.23 Double Venue Wedding!
I had the pleasure of working with Tiphany and Lori on my big day (8/25/23). I had met with over a dozen wedding coordinators and Tiphany made me feel the most at ease. Once we had our initial meeting I knew Elegant Affairs would be perfect! I personally am quite a planner and Tiphany recognized that immediately and knew that a day of coordinator was all I needed. I felt heard and not pressured at all which is what I had experienced from other businesses or potential coordinators.
The most challenging part about my wedding was that I had a separate location for the ceremony and reception. That didn't seem to be a concern for Tiphany and Lori. Both of them knew of my venues and had tons of experience working at each location. Lori and Tiphany took the time to complete a full walk through at each venue and were amazing help in asking questions I hadn't thought of. We had a plan A-Z for anything that could've happened.
Lori handled everything at our wedding ceremony venue (Thornewood Castle) and Tiphany handled everything at our reception venue (Pioneer Park Pavilion). I cannot praise these women enough. I got to thoroughly enjoy my wedding day from start to finish without anyone pestering me. These ladies handled EVERYTHING. Lori helped me with an alternative send off and constructed a balloon arch in MINUTES! Lori was amazing during all of the photos and had even worked with our photographer (Jerome Tso) many, many times and knew exactly what he was looking for in each of our shots. While Lori was managing Thornewood, Tiphany was hard at work with another assistant decorating our reception venue. Tiphany handled setup and all of our vendors arrival times. She thought of things that I hadn't and made the reception venue look beautiful.
I am Cambodian and it was incredibly important for my family and I to incorporate our culture and tradition into the reception. Tiphany managed everything that was thrown her way, even if hiccups arose. She wasnt afraid to jump in and make it such a seamless event. Tiphany made sure that I had food, water, lipgloss and everything in between!
I received SO many compliments from our guests about how seamless both the ceremony and reception were. I honestly have no idea how these women kept on our schedule, but they did! We were even AHEAD of schedule mostly and the credit entirely goes to Elegant Affairs. I wish we could do iy all again because of how amazing the day was.
Tiphany and Lori, THANK YOU.

We live in South Florida and had Elegant Affairs do our planning for our 25th anniversary vow renewal. They were essential to the success of the event and Tiphany Thomas was amazing! She was patient with us and very accommodating to our needs. Very professional but also very down to earth. I highly recommend Tiphany and Elegant Affairs to anyone looking for their services. -

Elegant Affairs, and specifically Tiphany Thomas, have been total life-savers when it comes to coordinating my wedding. I hired Tiphany as my day-of coordinator. Tiphany was prompt in reaching out to schedule meetings with me and my then-fiancé, took full ownership over communication with vendors, provided vendor discounts, helped with a very detailed itinerary, provided expert advice, and did anything and everything I could have hoped for. I truly did not have any tasks on my wedding day other than to enjoy myself. I consider myself a detailed and organized person, and thought I could handle it on my own, but Tiphany truly made my life so much easier when it came to wedding planning. I would recommend Tiphany/Elegant Affairs to anyone who has any hesitation about planning a wedding themselves. -

Elegant Affairs is simply excellent!
My husband and I found Elegant Affairs after hours of Google searches and review readings. After the initial video chat with Lori it was obvious they were the best choice. From day one of our contract, Lori was easy to get ahold of and encouraging of all of our ideas. She made vendor meetings and communication easy and was able to help us land our dream vendors for the wedding day. Our rehearsal was a cakewalk and loads of fun with Lori directing our wedding party and family. When I arrived on my wedding day all I had to worry about was getting ready as I knew our dream was going to be executed. Lori and Tiphany had clearly listened during our planning meetings and got to know my husband and me, which allowed them to put together the dreamiest wedding day. From start to finish the day ran smoothly and effortlessly thanks to them. I would recommend Elegant Affairs to all of my friends and family, as I truly could not have imagined our planning process and wedding day without them! -

Dani S. Sent on 06/11/2022Your life will never be the same again! Hire Lori for your wedding!
It’s been a month since my wedding and I still can’t believe how perfect that day was for my husband and I. Our family and friends have not stopped raving about how flawlessly the day went and how beautiful everything was.
We hired Lori in 2021 and from the start she helped us plan every single detail of how our wedding day would go. The best part of working with her is how prepared, knowledgeable and professional she is. You can trust her with anything, literally. She works with some of the best vendors and will help coordinate everything, seriously. As a plus, she makes an amazing hype woman but she’s also a great officiant.
When we ran into some issues with our original venue one month out from our wedding date, she found us the most amazing replacement venue and seamlessly made sure all our vendors were aware of the change. She saved the day! As a result, our day was better than we could have imagined and we’ve created some of the best memories from that day. If you’re considering hiring a wedding planner, there’s life before you’ve met Lori at Elegant Affairs WA and life afterwards, and life afterwards is better. Trust me, you’ll want her to be your friend for life. -

Tiphany and Lori were absolutely amazing! They were kind, professional, and empathetic. They made us feel confident that our day was going to be great, and they had the skills to make sure that it was. When there were issues with a catering company on the day of the reception, they took care of it so well we didn't even know there had been a problem until the next day. We'd highly recommend Elegant Affairs—not sure how we would have done this without them! -

Brides, let me start by saying, YOU NEED A PLANNER. As an Event Professional with nearly 20 years of experience I vowed (a decade before I DO) to hire a wedding planner the moment I became engaged.
Fast forward… and I went down the path of hiring someone, but I just didn’t find the right fit.
When it comes to a wedding, it all comes down to surrounding yourself with people you TRUST.
After 19 months of being engaged, three delays, anxiety, and family feuds… I was a my breaking point. I interviewed four wedding planners, called all of my corporate contacts, even offered to fly my own team up to Seattle… Then, I met my fairy god-sister Lori! From the moment we met, I knew she had my back. I could lean on her to keep me accountable to my final details (with less than 8 weeks to go). Odds were stacked against us…180 person wedding in 2021?!? She handled me (my expectations), the catering crew, the band, and all our vendors with a grace and conviction. Lori and her team are the real deal. I hope to forever have Lori in my corner and would highly recommend her to any bride looking for someone to trust on your most special day of your life! -

Lori Losee was an amazing wedding planer! I couldn't ask for anyone that was so on top of organizing and helping us stay on track every month until our wedding day! Also, the day of the wedding Lori made everything so smooth! And handled everything is seconds. So, I highly recommend Lori Losee, Elegant Affairs. -

If you just got engaged, your first step should be to hire Lori! Words can't even describe how amazing Lori is at her job. Not only did she help us secure all of our vendors and execute our vision exactly as we had planned it, she also is an amazing human and became a close friend of ours. All of her vendor recommendations were fantastic and made our lives so much easier! I am a very "Type A" person and I enjoy overcommunication, Lori was great at keeping us in the loop every step of the way. She went out of her way to respond to the late night texts and emails and I knew my wedding was in great hands with her. The day of, her team flawlessly executed everything - even with a few bumps due to ferries causing delays! My husband and I got to be guests at our own wedding with no stress setting up or taking down the event. Our families and friends all loved Lori and we all continue to rave about her amazing skills as a wedding planner! I can't recommend her enough!

Lauren J. Sent on 07/19/2021Lori is Amazing!
I don’t think we know where to truly begin to describe the amazing experience we had with Lori at Elegant Affairs.
We were one her many couples whose weddings were impacted by the pandemic. We started working with Lori in May of 2019 for what was originally going to be a September 2020 wedding. She professionally and gracefully shifted our entire list of vendors - and even found us an amazing videographer to add to the list - to May 2021.
Obviously, moving our wedding was disappointing - but it meant we got to work with Lori for two full years - and that we would never change! Her ability to organize and coordinate the entirety of our big day created a seamless and stress-free experience for us, our families, and our wedding party.
Having a May 2021 wedding meant it was one of the first big events most of our friends and family had attended in over a year. Everyone only had wonderful things to say and were so impressed by Lori’s attention to every last detail.
If you have ever considered hiring a wedding coordinator - stop thinking about it and hire Lori! You absolutely will not regret it.
We will forever be grateful for the countless hours she spent working with us - and more than that, we are happy to consider her a friend.
Thank you Lori!

Amazing, would have been lost without her!
Due to the pandemic our wedding was changed many many times. Lori was BEYOND understanding and worked with us completely. When the day came she was extremely helpful to the point I don’t know what we would have done without her! She was respectful and so pleasant. Loved her and am so thankful we had her on our big day!! -

Hire Elegant Affairs!
What else can we say except... Lori and her team are amazing! We hired Lori in early 2019 for our May 2020 wedding. They were the very first vendor we booked! We knew how good she was and had seen Lori in action at my sister's wedding in 2015 and at another friend's wedding in 2017.
Lori was always available to take our calls/texts or answer our emails. In March 2020, she helped us postpone our wedding date to August 9. Two weeks before our wedding, we lost our venue due to the new COVID rules. She helped us move our ceremony to my dad's backyard with literally days to go. She decorated and cleaned up the whole ceremony space as well as keeping everyone on track the entire day. Not to mention, she's such a treat to be around - so positive and willing to help!
Lori worked so hard to make our special day happen, even during a pandemic. You won't be disappointed when you hire Elegant Affairs! Thank you Lori!
Also, Go Cougs! -

Dave R. Sent on 05/02/2019Amazing service, 1000% recommend!
Do yourself a favor and hire Lori at Elegant Affairs. She is amazing. When we first met with Lori, we explained that we wanted a small, simple wedding at our home (20-25 guests). We wanted it to be more like a house party, less like a wedding…and she delivered...big time!
From planning, decorations, seating, recommendations on a photographer, to writing the perfect script for our ceremony and backing us up when the caterer decided to bail...Lori was fantastic. Every one of our guests had a great time, everything came together. Even when we surprised her at the last minute with some minor changes (like when we told her a week before the wedding that he had a live band coming), she was professional, and on top of it all. Nothing fazed her!
Seriously people...if you want a professional who delivers at a great price and provides an amazing ceremony and event...she’s the one I’d recommend! -

To say Lisa is absolutely amazing is an understatement. We hired Lisa before Covid because being the first wedding of my children, I was lost. What do we do, how do we plan, what’s next? Lisa came in set up all my daughters vendors, etc. with all the restrictions changing daily, she kept us informed and listened to our concerns. I almost want someone else to get married so I can hire her again. I’ve told people we were strangers when we met but we are now life long friends. I would highly recommend Lisa Owens with Elegant Affairs. -

I don’t think I would have had my dream wedding if it wasn’t for Lisa at Elegant Affairs!! After being engaged and planning a wedding for over a year and a half, getting married in the middle of a pandemic was not what me and my husband ever imagined. We had the bumpiest rollercoaster ride of ups and downs, twists and turns, and constantly changing guidelines. Lisa is the #1 reason why our wedding turned out to the be the dream we were hoping for. She was constantly communicating with us about everything and always checking in. Downsizing our wedding, adjusting our original plans, and communicating with vendors was an easy process because she was so involved in every planning part possible. The day of the wedding itself was so seamless. It felt stress free, completely organized, and an absolute dream. She ensured that all of our visions came true but still fit within guidelines for a pandemic wedding. I’m truly speechless about how incredible she was to work with. We hired a planner but ended up with a life time friend. I would 10/10 recommend her for all your wedding needs. (Sometimes I wish she could be my life planner too!) -

Teresa S. Sent on 11/13/2019Best wedding planner to bring your fairytale wedding come true
Hiring Lori and Elegant Affairs was one of the best decisions my husband and I made for planning and wedding coordination. She is a wealth of information, years of experience and just fun. She took the stress out of the day and honestly we enjoyed planning the wedding with her help. My whole goal for our wedding weekend was to hand over the reins to our wedding planner to maximize distressing the event and being present for the day. Lori exceeded these expectations. She had great ideas and recommendations for vendors and helped us navigate the sometimes daunting task of wedding planning throughout the year. I really cannot thank her enough for helping to make our day as near a fairytale as it could be. Strongly recommend Elegant Affairs if you are looking for the best wedding planner to plan your big day. -
