Hi, I'm Lauren, a Raleigh, NC wedding planner, AND OWNER OF LAUREN O AND CO., dedicated to keeping it real and relatable.
Meet the team behind wifey for life
My journey to becoming a wedding planner was an unorthodox one for sure. I majored in Education in college with big dreams of becoming a high school English teacher. Fast forward to my student teaching semester, and I discovered that while I loved educating - I didn't enjoy kids. Lol. It sounds harsh, but it's real!
I found my way into wedding planning after interning for a local wedding planner. Thirteen years later, I've had the honor of guiding dozens of couples through planning the wedding of their dreams.
Let's be honest; there is a ton of misinformation about planning a wedding. From social media to major wedding publications - everyone has an opinion. So, I created Wifey for Life to provide honest, knowledgeable education led by the wedding industry's premier wedding vendors.
I'm excited you're here. I can't wait to meet you!
Wifey for Life has been a great learning tool with their workshops that helped me plan a beautiful wedding! I always highly recommend WFL and Lauren O & Co. to all brides, family and friends.

I had an absolutely amazing time at the wifey for life seminar. I learned so much and had a beautiful wedding. Lauren educated me and the vendors were just amazing from hair and makeup to flowers and gifts, oh and the swag bag was the best I have ever gotten. I loved every minute of this class.

I love the Wifey For Life bridal workshops! Not only is it a great opportunity to learn from and network with vendors but it is so much fun to sit and chat with other brides in various stages of their planning. I can't wait to go to my next event (even though I will already be married at that point)! "
