I want to thank you so much for visiting us on our small little corner of the internet! I'm so happy you're here! My name Elise and I have a passion for design, up-dos and Bella Belle shoes. I have a small, trusted team of wedding planners in Charlottesville and I can't wait to hear your love story.
You're engaged, congrats!
xo,
Elise
Bright floral skirts, vanilla lattes, almond croissants and my (not-so) secret shame of binge watching The Bachelor whenever I can!
After working at an award winning venue for 3 years, shadowing prestigious florists and assisting phenomenal fellow planners, I found myself falling in love with timelines, tastings and design.
Soon thereafter, I created Laurel Elise Weddings + Events in hopes to bring the vision that so many couple's have of their wedding to life.
Wedding planner, optimist and wanna-be barista all rolled into one. Nice to meet you.

"Before I found her, I started planning a lot on my own and became overwhelmed, However, when Elise took things over, my stress washed away. Looking back, I wish I just booked her for full planning rather than partial. She truly listens to your vision and takes it to a whole different level and will blow your mind...The room looked so timeless and it was thanks to Elise's creativity and attention to detail. She is so personal, we even call her family now."

"Elise was hands down the best and most professional wedding hire we worked with for our massive, 2-ceremony, multi-cultural wedding in Charlottesville. Her warmth and willingness to go above and beyond the standard of duty helped alleviate so much stress and potential hiccups along the way, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of wedding coordination and/or wedding planning."

"Thank you so much for everything you did for Andrew and I with this wedding. You truly made it such an easy process and I cannot begin to tell you how much stress you took from me! You are an expert at what you do and such an absolute joy to work with. Thank you so much for making our special day perfect."
"An absolute joy to
work with!"
Ryann & Andrew
The most amazing event coordinator in the entire world. I would not be able to have planned my day without the help of Elise! She is absolutely hands down the best there is, and made our day more special than I could ever have dreamed of. Words cannot even explain how wonderful of a individual she is, or even begin to let ya'll know that you NEED to have her plan your wedding.

Elise was phenomenal to work with. She is very hard working, passionate about what she does, and very professional. She provided me with a very detailed to do list which was very helpful because I always had a fear I would forget about something. Elise asked all the questions I had never even thought about. The month before the wedding she took over everything for me. It was the best feeling to know what was going on but not having to be the one writing emails, coordinating details, finalizing arrivals, and creating a day of timeline. The day of my wedding was completely stress free.
