Hey babes! My name is Lauren Tarnacki, I am the woman behind To Gather In Grace and I am so happy to have you reading this right now. I started my dream of becoming a wedding and event planner by taking a leap of faith. With the gentle push from a pair of friends who were in need of one, I threw myself into the work and took on planning their wedding day. I knew the day after the wedding, once I had caught my breath, that this was exactly what I was created to do! That was back in 2013 and I have eagerly taken on many jobs since then, learning and growing as a planner with each new job.

TRAVEL & HOME

My dream destination wedding locations are anywhere in Italy, Greece, the south of France, London, New Zealand and Hawaii! I have traveled to Italy and Greece but I would love to tag along wherever you’re dreaming while helping you throw an incredible event. I did however, grow up in San Diego, California but have been living in Alabama with my wonderful husband and kids since the beginning of 2018. I love using my beachy roots as a west coast native when coming up with event designs, themes and when styling.

MY STYLE & FOCUS

Organic, warm and romantic with an emphasis on modern, design forward touches are the styles I find that speaks to me most but I love just thinking out of the box and non-traditional in general. What I love most about this job is that every opportunity I get is completely different than the last and helping you create something unique and memorable is exactly what I want to do. I want every wedding, event or creative opportunity that I commit to, to be a reflection of the people behind it. I’m just here to help you showcase whatever that special thing about you is. This is truly what I am so passionate about and every client that I take on is going to get my full heart and soul put into their day. So, if you’re looking for someone to be your wing woman with all things wedding related or just someone to help you create an incredible event or project than reach out, I can’t wait to hear all about it!
