"So great - I'm a return customer!"

Lorie & Teresa are a joy to work with. I have used them for two events - for my wedding and my parents 50th anniversary party. Both times they were very helpful and knowledgeable - even in helping me select what kind of flowers I wanted in my bouquet (I wanted very simple). I have more of a Type B personality but they were able to make suggestions and recommendations without taking over. I would definitely use them again for other events.

"Brides --- LeMaire Events is a MUST hire for your wedding!"

I initially contacted Lorie and Teresa at LeMaire Events with the intentions of only hiring a Day-Of-Coordinator. When Lorie responded back (mind you, this is BEFORE we hired them) she provided me with a list of different venues around Augusta/North Augusta, a list of questions that they would ask during our first meeting (I was living overseas at the time) and a few other things. I was extremely impressed with how organized and responsive they were and after my husband met with them and they showed him various venue locations (we actually went with a venue that wasn't even on our venue list), we decided to hire them for full-coordination services. Since we hired them a year and a half before the wedding, the ladies at LeMaire events always reached out to check in with us and send reminders off our to-do list. Almost all of our vendors - location, caterer, florist, baker, limo, rentals, etc. - were recommendations made by the ladies at LeMaire events. As the wedding day approached, they reached out to all of our vendors to confirm arrival times, payments, etc.. to ensure everything was stress free the day of the wedding. And believe it or not, the day was COMPLETELY stress free and these ladies played a large part in making that happen. If you're looking for unresponsive, disorganized, wedding planners who will not ensure your wedding runs stress free - then do not hire LeMaire Events. But if you're a bride looking for two highly motivated, organized, responsive ladies who will not only bring your vision to life, but will do it on schedule and with little to no stress!!.... then Lorie and Teresa at LeMaire Events are the ladies for you. My husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing and could truly enjoy our wedding day. Our parents and family felt the same way - they could truly enjoy our wedding day and not have to worry about a thing because they two ladies had it all under control. I cannot say enough about these two and how they were able to take my 1,001 ideas and suggestions, figure out my vision, and turn it into the classy, beautiful wedding. And I cannot emphasize enough how much fun they were to work with and just how organized, creative, and energetic they are. They're personalities compliment each other very well and we really enjoyed working with them. I sincerely thank them for making our wedding day a day my husband and I will never forget.

"LeMaire Events are a MUST HIRE for your Wedding!"

Within a month of my engagement my now husband and I attended his cousin's wedding. When we told her we were engaged the first words out of her mouth following "Congratulations" were "Hire a wedding planner, at the very least hire a wedding coordinator for the day of. I didn't do that and it's the one thing I regret because on your wedding day you want to be able to sit back and relax with your family and friends, you don't want to be running around doing everything or have them running around doing everything." With such a tight budget I didn't think we'd be able to afford a wedding planner but the more I read into it the more I realized we couldn't afford to not have a wedding planner. I'm a very organized and type-A person so at first my husband didn't think that we needed a wedding planner. We had almost two years to plan a wedding and he thought I could handle it on my own, however I knew I needed someone to pull my vision into a cohesive, beautiful event: that's where Lorie and Teresa walk in. From our first meeting I know they were the people I wanted to trust with our wedding. They created a budget (which I adhered to religiously), they gave us suggestions for the vendors and the venues, and they were at every meeting we had from viewing the venue, to the cake tasting, to the florist appointment. I sent them (an obsessive amount of) emails with pictures of weddings I wanted mine to look like, along with ideas, and any questions I had and they always responded promptly and figured out what a way to pull all the photos I sent them into one cohesive wedding. My husband even made a comment during the wedding process (an he was a very involved groom I might add) that everything was going so smoothly. Our wedding day was perfect thanks to these ladies, I didn't have to do a thing other than enjoy my day. They made sure everyone was where they needed to be, doing what they needed to do. The venue looked beautiful and since our wedding everyone has continued to talk about how wonderful it was. We've gotten multiple compliments about Lorie and Teresa being on top of things, as well as how beautiful our recpetion was. In fact, several people who know what our budget was were shocked at how wonderful everything turned out and said it looked like we spent much more than we did, which to me was the ultimate compliment. At the end of the day I know I couldn't have done it without Lorie and Teresa and it was worth every penny. I highly recommend any bride use them regardless of how organized you may be, or if you think you can do it on your own, they will definitely pull your dream wedding together and take the stress off of you on your big day.

Lorie and Teresa are wonderful and were just what I needed for our wedding on March 24, 2012 in Augusta, GA! I had moved from out of state and was clueless as to which vendors to use for the wedding. Their suggested vendors were great and they were also up for using new vendors that I had found. They are open-minded for new ideas but still let you know what has always worked best in the past and with that help I felt like certain decisions were a lot more easily made. With their experience, they knew what was going on and what was going to be best for us. Timely email and phone call responses really brought my anxiety level down as well. They always answered my questions so quickly that nothing was ever rattling around in my head for too long. It was great!! The decorations were amazing at both the church and the reception! It’s like they could just sense our style the first time they met us and put together decor (centerpieces, lighting, chair covers) that brought ‘US’ out even more. I loved walking through the doors are seeing how gorgeous it was. Took my breath away!! They take every detail into consideration. You can’t do any better than these ladies!

"Couldn't Ask For A Better Wedding!!!"

My husband and I would like to thank LeMaire Events for giving us the best wedding you could ever have!! I initially asked for a relative to assist or coordinate my wedding being I live in Atlanta, GA but I was having my wedding in Augusta, GA. After my aunt did her own research online she located LeMaire Events. The minute I spoke with them over the phone and first meeting I knew then they were about business. Once we laid out all the things we wanted and ideas, especially my now husband (all smiles) along with LeMaire Events we knew this would turn out fabulous. They are very helpful, they work with you based on your budget, they provide excellent ideas and they are on point. All I can say is fabulous. I have been married one month and five days and I still cannot believe how LeMaire Events decorated our venue. On top of that SHCC was beyond beautiful. I rate LeMaire Events a 10 star, 5 star's is not good enough for me. Whenever I decide to have my first child, I definitely will hire LeMaire Events to do my baby shower. I recommend LeMaire Events to any and everybody. Thank You so so mcuh!!

The ladies at Lemaire events are just simply amazing. Our friends and family are still talking about our wedding on October 1, 2011. I knew from the day i got engaged that wedding planning was not something i could do nor was it something i would attempt to do. I was blessed to have met these ladies. Growing up in africa, i knew that was something i wanted incorporated in my wedding but i also knew i didnt want to lose my husband's American culture. We started planning the wedding probably a year before the date. Since i lived 2hours away, the ladies helped me so mcuh, from finding vendors, to making sure i stayed on budget, to finding a venue, finding hotels for my out of town guest and even finding us affordable places for our honeymoon. The ladies were so honest, professional but laid back, They went with me to all my meetings to make sure all my questions were answered. They helped me stay on task and organized. Everything just went so well together. Everytime i think about my wedding day, i find myself just smiling away. we had so much fun. I was so bless to have met lorie and Teresa and i would defeinetly recommend them to anyone planning any kind of event.

"Made my wedding day totally stress-free"

Lorie and Teresa from LeMaire events were amazing. I hired them for day-of wedding coordination and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Pre-wedding: They are punctual, prepared, and flexible. We met several times, and Lorie came with us to the venue in the final weeks. The contact at the venue was totally scatterbrained, but Lorie made me feel so much better because she was so on top of it. Lorie also helped execute many last-minute details of the decor with no questions asked. And they came out perfectly! They even rented me some linens that I needed. During the wedding: The decor, scheduling, set up and wrap up for my wedding went beautifully. With the added task of setting up and taking down a complicated chair/table layout, LeMaire events went above and beyond what was necessary. It was like magic -- everything just got DONE, and on time, and I barely even saw them! It was exactly what a coordinator should be, and I couldn't have been happier. I highly recommend them. They are affordable and incredibly professional. Thanks ladies!!

All I can say is LeMaire Events are the best! Take it from me, I am very hard to please but was well pleased with these women. They work very hard around the clock making sure my daughter's dedication was a special day. I am in the military and I live in Hawaii, but my event was held in South Carolina. These ladies were unbelievable, they did everything perfect without me being there prior to my event. I was so pleased, I dropped a little something special in the mail for all their hard work. Just tell them what you want and sit back and let them work their magic. I would highly recommend them to everyone and definitely will use them again!
