ABOUT ME

Making Dreams Come True
With a degree in Art & Design from George Washington University and a master’s in Early Childhood Education, my professional journey began in the classroom rooted in creativity, patience, and genuine connection.
When my son grew older and I was ready for my next chapter, a friend asked me to help plan her event. That moment became the spark that launched Lauren Sydney Events.
From day one, it felt like the most natural evolution. I’ve always been driven by design, inspiration, and people, event planning brought all of that together. What began as something simple for a friend grew into a passion and, ultimately, a boutique brand known for curated details, immersive environments, and a deeply personal touch.
I love turning a family’s vision into a space they can feel the moment they walk in. My approach is hands on, intuitive, and rooted in artistry. I get to know my clients, understand what matters most to them, and create celebrations that feel uniquely theirs.
Event planning is the perfect blend of everything I’ve ever been: an artist, a nurturer, a problem-solver, and a woman who believes in making moments unforgettable.
With me, it’s creative. It’s thoughtful. It’s personal.
