We are a team of Wedding and Event Stylists
Helping you host the most incredible day for your friends and family by designing a space that feels warm, welcoming, thoughtful and emits style in every detail.
Lauren is the creative behind the name
with a talented extended team by her side.
Based in Gippsland, Victoria we love nothing more than showcasing the beauty that our backyard has to offer. Transforming Marquees into magical spaces, Private properties into parties, and elevating room-appeal across the state.
We aim to innovate, create and collaborate
with like-minded people to produce extraordinary events.
Our approach and process allows for this by tailoring specifically for you, then calling in complimenting suppliers and pulling all the right strings for a seamless and stylish event
leaving you calm, organised, supported and excited
every step of the way.
Servicing Melbourne, Gippsland and across Victoria.
Together, let’s make your big day magic!
Design
- We meet with you (or organise a phone chat) and learn all about your visions for the day.
- We invite questions, and ask lots too.
- We commence designing and collaborate with Victoria’s top suppliers during this process.
- Repurposing and relocating floral and hire items is a staple in all of our designs so you are maximising bang for your buck and staying kind to the plant too.
- We research, brainstorm, sketch & curate your design concept before presenting this to you
in a Mood board.
Plan
- We plan out logistics, setup & pack down and all of the behind the scenes details needed to bring your design concept to life successfully.
- We measure, calculate, email, call and site-visit to plan out your day as accurately as possible.
- We Quote in an itemised fashion.
- We revise with you until we have your proposal sitting at a comfortable spot both design & budget-wise.
Book
- We secure your date & booking with us with a deposit.
- We then lock in contributing vendors and suppliers.
- We arrange a visit to the venue with you
and together we walk through your design concept. Taking notes for any revisions we discover here.
- Between here and the big day, we keep in touch with email correspondence, proofs, running sheets + more.
Style
- We bring your design concept to life with full setup of your styling / floral elements.
- Our organised team work to timelines throughout your setup.
- Every place setting is thoughtfully styled with the highest attention to detail so that each of your guests feel welcome and looked after.
- We coordinate the styling for the day.
From setups, back up plans,
relocation of furniture/ florals + more.
- Full pack down of styling elements is all taken care of for you so you can kick on
with the recovery party!

“I want to write the greatest thank you note ever for the most amazing reception set up ever ...something that will really convey the depths of my gratitude, something more special than any other bride has written. A thank you for every little detail and every beautiful design!
You are much more than a stylist!
The tables were perfect. The design was the most beautiful that I have seen at any wedding.
It was exactly what I wanted. I couldn't quite convey it but somehow you read my mind.
The tables were loved by everyone.
Many people have asked about the tables, floral design at the bar and I can't tell them enough about you.
Honestly you were amazing Lauren, and I am so grateful I found you!”

"We were more then impressed with the work the Etc. team did for us,
they kept me motivated and on task.
They made my wedding experience truly memorable with the transformation they achieved
& the amount of time they saved me,
I couldn't imagine doing what they did myself.
They put tonnes and tonnes of work in and it truly showed!
Lauren works hard in really capturing your vision
and makes it such a personal and individual wedding.
Words really can't explain the quality of Lauren's (and teams) work!
Thank you!"

"So much work went into planning our wedding.
It was a labour of love and so great to share the process with Etc.
When the big day finally approached, it meant I could trust Etc. to execute our plans
meaning I could enjoy the day as a Bride."

"Etc. understood our vision and was able to drive that vision to the very end.
They really got us, and we felt confident in their hands.
With complete understanding of our situation (we lived in a remote community in WA)
Lauren was always able to get a message to me and adapt to any situation.
Etc. were our voice of reason and guidance and felt a part of our wedding family.
We could not have done it without them, what they delivered was beyond our imagination and pure elegance to our style.
I truly envy their job!"
