Hey. Hi. I’m Lauren the owner of this little business and I just crushed 7 events in 2 weeks so I’m here to tell you about it. 💪🏼💪🏼 For those of you who don’t know me in real life, a friend of mine wrote this bio for me today so I figured, why not break out the new headshots by and take advantage of it.

Lauren McQuillan is a skilled event planner and a devoted mother. She joined in the fight to end human trafficking with a self-disclosed fury toward the injustice of exploitation. Since 2022, Lauren has used her expertise in event planning and floral design to facilitate vital awareness-raising events including the Freedom Gala and Freedom 4/24’s annual 5k, “Run for Their Lives,” in addition to presenting the Equipped Workshop, an introductory course on human trafficking designed for groups of parents and caregivers. Lauren’s vision is to create a safer and more justice-driven world for the future generations and empower her local community of Central Virginia to grow in love and wellness. When she is not working, Lauren can be found spending intentional time with her family, advancing her health through yoga, and going for walks with her French Bulldog, Re*****on.

If you’re looking for an irreverent, empathetic, down for anything party planner I’m your girl. Just not for the next 6 weeks. 😴

For my birthday we rented the Villa de Saye. This Lynchburg gem was the perfect location for a weekend of incredible food by yoga, massage, lounging, and rest. I will remember it forever with deep gratitude.

If you need a place that sleeps 20 and has amenities for days check out this property. Perfect for a bridal party weekend or milestone birthday. And invite me because I want to get in this pool when it’s not March anymore. 🥶

ANNOUNCEMENT! I am turning 40 soon. It’s beyond bizarre for me to look around for the adult in the room and realize I am her. I’ve always had an old (bossy 😏) soul and I never felt like a child even as a child- big firstborn energy. I also never felt like I was the expert. I have embraced a “fake it til you make it” confidence and have pushed through more anxiety and fear than I care to admit. At the risk of jinxing it, I’m claiming my expertise. I know what I’m doing and I’m so proud of myself. In that spirit, I’m here to tell you to go to the link in my bio and check out my NEW WEBSITE that my dear, sweet friend made for me with the branding suite made for me and the photos that .so.phia .joy11 .photo have graciously let me use. Having a community of women to lift me up is the only reason I’m here in the first place.

This photo is from .gracephoto who also kicks butt. 💪🏼
