"Life is too short to waste it on moments that don't give us meaning."
Hi, I'm Laurie!
Coordinating events became a passion of mine after I began working in events back in 2016. I have coordinated over 100 special events ranging from weddings to baby showers to corporate events, and more!
​
It's an honor to build a relationship with you and your loved ones and to be trusted with your special event. In my opinion, events are the most fun and exciting experiences to be a part of. To see the look on your face as your vision comes to life is my favorite part!
I'm a daughter of the King, a wife, a mom, and a go-getter.
I can't resist a good thrift, love being outside with my pups, and enjoy spending my free time volunteering on the production team at my church. I'm also a video-game nerd, but don't tell anyone.
​
I look forward to working alongside you in making your day the BEST day ever!
MEET LAUREN
Hi, my name is Lauren!
I'm based in Concord, NC. I am a recent UNC-Wilmington graduate and aside from event planning, I enjoy being a youth director.
​
With a focus on seamless logistics, creative design, and guest experience, I help bring your vision to life with precision and style.
​
Whether it's a wedding, brand launch, or community celebration, I'm passionate about creating events that feel effortless, organized, and uniquely you.
​
Let's make something unforgettable!

Event Coordinator
Grace
Hi, I'm Grace!
I started working with Monarch about a year ago, and as I've become more involved, I couldn't be more excited to officially be a part of the team. What began as helping out with events quickly turned into a passion for creating memorable experiences and bringing people's visions to life.
​
My love for organization, creativity, and attention to detail naturally led me to event planning, where I get to help turn special moments into lasting memories. I take pride in staying organized and calm under pressure, making sure every detail is handled so you can relax and fully enjoy your event. Whether it's a wedding, shower, or corporate gathering, my goal is to make your day flow smoothly and feel effortless from start to finish.
​
Outside of event planning, I help manage my family's business, which has taught me the value of communication, teamwork, and precision, all skills that carry over beautifully into planning events. I'm also passionate about my faith, my family, and helping others however I can.
​
I can't wait to help bring your vision to life and make your special day everything you've dreamed of!
