The Hearts Behind Willow & Veil

Hi, I'm Lauren—the founder of Willow & Veil Events.

My love for weddings began in Atlanta, Georgia, where I coordinated weddings at five historic venues and worked with countless couples throughout the planning process. I also had the opportunity to work at the renowned Bridals by Lori, gaining experience in every detail that makes a celebration meaningful. After planning and coordinating hundreds of weddings over the years, I discovered what I already knew to be true—helping people celebrate life's most important moments is my passion.

Two years ago, my husband, Jon, our daughter, Gracie, and I made Driggs, Idaho our home, drawn by the beauty of the mountains and the incredible community of Teton Valley. While I took time away from weddings to focus on family, start a travel agent business, support my husband's luxury plaster company, my love for planning never faded. As a travel advisor, I also help clients create memorable experiences around the world, a role that has strengthened my expertise in logistics, guest experience, and destination planning. Which adds value to event clients because having the best pre or post event vacation is a definite must! Whether it's a wedding, holiday gathering, birthday celebration, or special event, I have always loved creating experiences that bring people together.

What sets my approach apart is simple: your celebration isn't about me—it's about you. My role is to listen, guide, organize, and thoughtfully bring your vision to life so you and your loved ones can be fully present for every meaningful moment. I believe the best events feel effortless, personal, and filled with joy, and I'm honored to help create those experiences throughout Idaho, Wyoming, and the Mountain West.
