FOUNDEr | LOgistics lead | event manager
NEW YORK + NASHVILLE + CHICAGO + BEYOND
Hey y'all! I'm Lauren. As a TGT client, I work with you alongside my team as we iron out all the details of your day and create organizational documents that dreams are made of. As the leader of the merry band of managers, I've selected and trained this team (hard) to be an extension of myself, providing the organization, relief, and FUN that this company was built on.
While my journey to wedding coordination was not planned (ha! how ironic), after years in large-scale, non-profit events, I can't imagine my life anywhere else. The ability to have a personal impact on two humans’ lives, is the greatest honor of MY life. I look forward to working with y'all!

PAIGE (SHE/HER)
ADMIN
NEW YORK + NASHVILLE + CHICAGO + BEYOND
Paige is your go-to-gal for everything Admin! She has been working in the performing arts and events for her entire life and absolutely loves making magic happen here at The Get Together Events Co. She has lived all over the world, from her home in Tennessee, to New York City, to Amsterdam, and back to Nashville with a few stops in between. In her spare time you can find her painting, crocheting, hanging out with her wonderful husband and toddler, or watching too many documentaries in a row.
Specializing in all of the behind the scenes details that make events go off without a hitch, Paige prides herself in making sure the process runs smoothly so you can focus on the important things in life: love and cake.
“[Lauren] was a pure joy to work with - so much so that I asked her to hire me!”
