Meet Lauren

I love traveling and exploring new places; it awakens my soul. Food is one of my passions! More often than not my travels lead me to some of the most delicious places. When I am not planning events you can find me cooking for friends and family, attending the latest pop up dinner, swooning over old homes or dancing. Most importantly, I get to do what I love for a living and for that I am grateful.

Aoife O'Byrne DePauw

I embarked on my event planning career in 2007 within the nonprofit sector at the Archdiocese of New York. During this experience I honed in on the invaluable skill of creating and styling events across a range of budgets – from prestigious gatherings  like the Al Smith Dinner attended by the Republican/Democrat Presidential Nominees to local fundraising events for the Cardinal. Joining a prominent international events agency, FIRST, I orchestrated high profile events for some of the firm’s top clients including Morgan Stanley. During my tenure at FIRST I had the opportunity to join the NY/NJ Super Bowl Host Committee team where I worked on all events in preparation for Super Bowl XLVIII. What sets me apart is my passion for event planning, my thoughtful commitment to clients, incredible attention to detail, and my creativity. 

When I am not planning events I can usually be found decorating, painting, at the beach (especially in the winter) or travelling with my family.  I am an eternal optimist at heart, love people and a great cup of coffee.

With over a decade of experience in event and wedding planning, my journey began at the boutique event production company Bowen & Company. During my tenure, I planned a variety of non-profit galas, award shows, magazine launches, as well as headed up the company’s wedding division. I had the opportunity to work with an array of clients from The James Beard Foundation, Lululemon, Alzheimer’s Association, Saks Fifth Avenue and EcoHealth Alliance. Having the chance to work with such high profile clients has taught me how to stay calm under pressure, think quickly on my feet and strive for excellence.
 
During my wedding planning experience at Bowen & Company, I had the opportunity to work with many of the industries most talented and recognized wedding vendors. I have coordinated weddings at a variety of venues including Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater to Glenmere Mansion to destination weddings in the Berkshires. Establishing and fostering relationships within the industry has led to my success in executing flawless weddings.
 
My favorite parts of the planning process are scouting locations, helping clients find the perfect team of vendors and really taking the time to get to know my client’s interests and needs. My main goal is to provide each client with an event that is unique and reflects pieces of who they are.
