About Us

Elegant Affairs was created in 2005 by owner and event planner Lori Losee. Lori first came up with the idea of Elegant Affairs when she was planning her own wedding to her college sweetheart in 2003.

Now, married for seven years and with two sons, Grant and Jackson, Lori is taking Elegant Affairs to a new level.

Elegant Affairs is not only about weddings; we can also plan such events as parties (Holiday, Birthday, Bachelorette, Bridal and Baby Showers) to corporate and non-profit events and conferences.

Lori attended Washington State University and earned a degree in Communications with an emphasis in Journalism. Her career has spanned from a newspaper reporter, freelance writer, editor and her vast volunteer experience with the Alpha Phi sorority.

Our goal and focus at Elegant Affairs is to ensure your special day runs flawlessly. Through her own experiences, Lori understands the importance of this one day and promises to make it a dream come true for you. We are here to help you create your signature wedding by collecting all your thoughts, dreams, and ideas on how you envision your special day to make your dream a reality.

Wedding Services

We offer a FREE, one-hour no obligation consultation to discuss your vision. Call 253.279.6485 to schedule your appointment.

Elegant Affairs will coordinate every aspect of your wedding or event, beginning with an introductory meeting for us to get to know one another and discuss your vision. Trust is important in any relationship. You should feel completely comfortable with your coordinator and feel assured that we completely understand your needs. If you need assistance in determining your individual needs based on your wedding/event style and budget, we would love to sit down with you and help and put together a package and price that is right for you.

All wedding coordination packages include: unlimited access to expert wedding advice via e-mail; access to our preferred vendor list; Elegant Affairs wedding planning workbook; assistant(s), review of contracts; working/coordinating with all vendors, including confirmation one week prior to wedding; and an "Emergency Kit."
