Q: I’m interested in your services, but I need more information. Are you available to talk?
Absolutely, Lauren Paige Associates provides a free consultation either over the phone, through e-mail or in person. Once we discuss everything you have questions about, and there is absolutely no obligation to hire us. If you do decide to hire us, we will send you a contract and require a deposit. We require a signed contract and deposit—at the same time—prior to providing services.

Q: When booking our ceremony and reception locations, we were told we have an on site coordinator, do I still need a separate Wedding planner?
Yes! An on site coordinator provides about 10% of the services an actual wedding planner does. In some cases, the on site coordinator is a few different people, won't be available day of and will only provide a select few services dealing with the venue ONLY. The best advice to give is to provide a past client experience. One bride came to LPA because the on site coordinator, that came with the venue she booked, was suddenly no longer employed with the venue. The venue not only failed to tell her this, but once she contacted the coordinator to set up her tasting and go through details (most of which she learned the on site coordinator was unable to help her with anyway), the coordinator referred her to the general manager and told her the news of her recent unemployment. That’s right—her venue was suddenly coordinator-less! Unfortunately one of the reasons the bride booked this venue was because she loved the coordinator, not realizing that she was in part sales woman for the venue, and that she wasn’t truly going to be “with” her for a stress-free day. She then decided that she needed to hire a real wedding planner. Someone who will know and understand her vision and how she wants her day to go. Not only be there for her to provide a stress-free day, but oversee all vendors and make sure nothing goes wrong. This is why hiring a wedding planner is so important. You wedding planner won’t go MIA the very last minute and leave you frantically looking for a new route. Your planner will also take care of all aspects of your wedding, not just those dealing with the venue and THEIR services.

Q: How many event planners or assistants do you bring with you to each Wedding?
The number of employees we bring to each wedding depends on the size of the bridal party, and how extensive the wedding and set up is. The best answer to this is that it varies from wedding to wedding. Typically there are at least two people present the day of.

Q: Do you have a business license?
Yes. We are a legal, tax paying company and have filed all the appropriate paperwork. It may sound like a stupid question, but many individuals and businesses perform services and are not “real” companies.

Q: How are the payments structured?
A non-refundable deposit is required at the time of signing the contract to reserve our services and date. The amount is 50% of the total package price. The remaining balance is due 30 days prior to the event, but can be paid before hand if desired.

Q: How do you charge for your services?
We charge a flat, fixed rate for all our packages.

Q: While most of your packages are what I’m looking for there are some aspects that don’t fit my needs. Do offer additional packages?
Every client has the option of choosing one of our pre-made packages or creating one of their own. We adjust the price accordingly and can create anything that fits exactly what you’re looking for.

Q: Do you accept commissions from any vendors you refer?
Absolutely not. We do not believe that accepting commissions for a referral is in the best interest of our clients. Any discounts we receive from vendors is passed directly to our clients. In fact, we only negotiate prices for our clients with vendors but NEVER sign any vendor contracts.

Q: What is your cancellation policy?
In the event of a cancellation, the deposit is non-refundable however, the reason for cancellation is taken into consideration in addition to the amount of work already gone into the planning. Our detailed cancellation policy can be found in our contract.
