Spanish Oak Events - New Orleans, Louisiana

How do I give Becky and the SOE crew a million stars? Because that is the rating that's in my heart. Our wedding was an absolute DREAM. We love Becky so much and cannot say enough good things about her. The way she took care of unexpected things that came up so seamlessly allowed us to have the freedom to just be present and enjoy. Becky is attentive to every detail, she pours her heart into her work, and she is just beyond a gem. Everyone of our guests who encountered her was so impressed and had nothing but glowing things to say. Hiring Becky as our wedding planner was the absolute best decision ever. I cannot recommend her frequently or loudly enough!

We cannot recommend Spanish Oak Events enough—especially the incredible Becky Lampp! Our wedding was no small feat, with 170 guests and a vision that involved multiple food stations, unique details, and a full weekend of celebration. Becky handled it all with grace, precision, and genuine care.

From the very beginning, she was organized, responsive, and incredibly thoughtful, helping us bring our ideas to life while also offering creative solutions we never would’ve thought of on our own. No detail was too small, and no challenge was too big. She made the entire process feel seamless, even when we knew how much work was going on behind the scenes.

On the wedding day, Becky and the Spanish Oak team were absolute pros. Everything flowed beautifully, the space looked stunning, and we truly got to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing everything was in such capable hands. So many of our guests told us it was one of the best weddings they’ve ever been to—and we know that’s in large part thanks to Becky’s vision and execution.

If you’re planning a wedding (big or small), run, don’t walk to book Spanish Oak Events. Becky Lampp is truly one of a kind, and we are so grateful to her for making our day unforgettable.

My now husband and I got married in March 2024 and had the absolute honor of working with Julia at Spanish Oaks. This is going to be a long one because I have so much love and appreciation for this team but TLDR: Spanish Oak Events is amazing and you should book them.
Armad and I were not the type who had a clear idea of what we wanted our wedding to be. We knew we wanted it to be a day filled with love and fun! We are not from New Orleans or live there but it was where we went on our first trip together as a couple so it was a fun idea to get married there! After thorough research on planners, we decided to move forward with Spanish Oaks. With only a couple conversations, you can understand the passion this team has to make your day the best day ever. Their goal is to make the process effortless and boy did they deliver on that!
We met with Julia over the phone over the course of a year to plan our wedding. We gave her the most broad idea of what we were looking for and she took that and ran with it. Throughout that year I never felt overwhelmed as Julia outlined all the dates of when things should be done by - the save the dates, invitations, vendor contracts, etc. How she stays on top of it all is truly a talent I want to steal.
When it came to the actual day, I cannot express enough how easy it was. I didn't have to give my bridesmaids a single job other than to have high spirits because Julia and the team coordinated everything. They moved bags to the venue (and back), made sure we got everywhere on time, and kept everything running so smooth. When Armad and I got to the ceremony and reception, I just about peed my pants from happiness. It was absolutely wild seeing how our vague descriptions turned into reality. We were awestruck!!
At the reception, we felt so taken care of with food set up for us and drinks full. We could just dance the night away and not stress to make sure things go where they need to. The team made sure all our belongings and keepsakes made it safely back to our suite. I also want to highlight the fact that Julia and team ensured not one but FOUR boxes of leftover food was waiting for us in our suite as well. It was an amazing day start to finish.
Overall, booking Spanish Oak Events and getting to work with Julia was the best decision we could of ever made (second to getting married of course).

With Becky's help, my wife and I planned an Indian/Christian combo wedding in 4 months. Becky got us the best vendors (the flowers and decor were stunning) and guided us through the process telling us what was necessary and what was a waste of money. All wedding days have moving parts and unforeseen issues but Becky and her team were able to mitigate them all. Everyone that attended is still talking about how much fun they had... and so are we.

Hiring Becky Lampp and her team was the best decision we made during this entire wedding process. Becky is the best of the best and we would HIGHLY recommend her. On every call, she was organized and always thought of things we didn’t – she thinks of the details and logistics. As a Brooklyn-based couple planning a wedding in New Orleans, we needed an organized person on the ground who knew the best vendors and who could handle a wedding of 240 people and 19+ vendors and Becky delivered. She knows the best vendors in the business and has a great reputation and working relationship with each of them. She also has an eye for design and our ceremony and reception looked beautiful in large part because of her. As an LGBT couple, she made sure to surround us with accepting vendors and had creative ideas about the structure for a non-traditional wedding. On our wedding day, Becky was calm, organized, kind and positive. She made sure we were always taken care of, on schedule and low stress. At the reception, her team made sure both of us and our parents always had a drink in our hands. Our parents were very impressed with her and her team and we could not have done this process without her. My wife still says this was the best money we ever spent. On a personal note, Becky and her husband Tom, who worked with her, are wonderful and kind people who will literally invite you into their home. We consider them friends and cannot recommend them more. They are truly the best of the best.

I had the best experience working with Becky and her team. She repeatedly went above and beyond to make sure our special day was exactly how we dreamed it to be. We knew we were in good hands when we started meeting with vendors early on in the wedding planning process and each one of them told us how sharp, kind, and fun to work with she was. Becky made sure to connect us with the best vendors in the city.

When it came to our wedding day, Becky was completely in her element. She made sure that my now husband and I had absolutely nothing to worry about and was a total rockstar. It was an absolute pleasure working with Becky and I could not recommend this team more.

I am so grateful that we found this amazing team, and even more grateful that we are leaving behind this wedding planning journey with a lifelong friendship.

This is a small thank you for the absolutely outstanding work Becky of Spanish Oaks, has done. We started with her about a year prior to the wedding date and she was open and warm, and extremely knowledgable. If you are at the beginning of the planning process, it is hard to imagine all the details to think of and coordinate. Becky was on top of things from day one. The most important skill she has is her ability to understand different personalities. She is really highly attuned to different family needs and she manages to find a way to make everyone feel heard and understood and accomplish the goals of the wedding couple, while respecting everyone. She is open minded and progressive, but has experience working with all kinds of families. Becky has connections to some of the top vendors in the industry, and because of the ease that people have working with her, she has built lasting relationships with them. She has access to great deals, and saves a huge amount of time knowing what each vendor is capable of, always working toward the image you have of your wedding. In the midst of the planning we had several family hardships and Becky was honest and ethical and kind and took any additional stress out, while lending a great deal of support. I can't say enough good things about Becky and her team and recommend her highly, without any reservation.

It's hard to find words to describe how incredibly amazing Becky and the rest of the Spanish Oak Events team is!! We immediately knew Becky was the one for us after our first intro call based on her fun personality, her knowledge and experience of the New Orleans wedding industry, and her team's process for wedding planning. Throughout the planning process (we worked with her for 12 months leading up to the wedding), she kept us on top of everything that needed to be done, as well as prioritizing and sequencing everything. If we needed inspiration or ideas, she provided plenty with examples of weddings she's personally planned in the past. Even though we worked with her from out-of-state (Houston, TX), she learned our style and our vision so quickly, and helped us plan and create the most dreamy, fairytale wedding in New Orleans.
For the wedding day itself, she was with me (the bride) and my bridesmaids almost the entire day, making sure we were adhering to the timeline but also having fun getting ready and taking pictures! Any issue that came up, she communicated it AND already had solutions or plan Bs ready so that I didn't have to think or worry about it. Becky made sure my husband and I had plenty of time for a private meal between the ceremony and reception, and we are SO glad because otherwise we wouldn't be able to eat the food we picked for our special day! Becky even went to our room during our after-party and made sure everything was clean, my bouquet was in a vase, and she left a sweet personalized note for us.
Personality wise, Becky is one of the most lovely people my husband and I have ever met - it was a joy to work with her and she always did whatever she could to keep our stress to a minimum. When we visited New Orleans to do some planning with her in person, we genuinely had so much fun walking around the quarter with her, grabbing drinks, and seeing venues! We love Becky and the Spanish Oak team and would 1000% recommend them to anyone who wants to have their dream wedding!
