Laura Wilson
Founder : Officiant : Wedding Planner : Ukulele Player
Host at Lulu’s Tents & Events
Laura is a romantic at heart and founded Say Yes Alaska in 2019. With over 20 years of experience in the hospitality industry she has been working with couples starting their journey together and finds joy in every new beginning. She is thrilled to expand the Say Yes network celebrating with couples in New England! Planning a ceremony or micro wedding in New England or Alaska, Laura is working coast to coast spreading love and joy!
Having received her Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Connecticut she had a rewarding career as a counselor in New England where she was born and raised. Her adventurous spirit brought her north where she has embraced the outdoor lifestyle and experiences Alaska has to offer.
Commitment to community is important to Laura who has previously served as a Rotary President, volunteered for arts and youth organizations and shared Alaska with visitors through her work as a guide.
Planning and executing weddings and events in remote locations requires vision and moxie. An intimate ceremony, elopement, gala or tasting event for 500 or more Laura and the Say Yes! team takes your experience from concept to completion creating dynamic and memorable moments.
Location, location, location. Challenging locations are her forte -coastal beaches, meadows, mountaintops, glaciers or remote wilderness lodges are a few of her favorites. Transforming an airplane hangar, ballroom or banquet hall is equally exciting for creating unparalleled events!
A 5th grade school dance put Laura on the path to planning celebrations and events and she has never looked back. She looks forward to working with you to create a memorable celebration!
Laura now hosts travelers, locals and couples looking for a majestic location for their ceremony at Lulu’s Tents and Events. Lulu’s, located in Palmer Alaska is a riverfront property overlooking the Knik River featuring Stout Bell Tents and Vintage Campers providing a glamping experience like no other.
Laura leads a team of Love Angels performing ceremonies throughout Alaska, uniting couples in love!
