Why Couples Choose Pop-Up Vows

A beach wedding ceremony with a couple exchanging vows under a white arch decorated with flowers, facing each other. Four guests are seated on wooden chairs, two on each side, with the ocean and a clear blue sky in the background.

THis isn’t a template. it’s your wedding.

Before anything else, you fill out a detailed questionnaire about your relationship, your people, and what you actually want the day to feel like. From there, every word of your ceremony gets written specifically for you, not pulled from a script that’s been used hundreds of times.

On the day itself, you don’t have to manage anything. The flow, the nerves, the timing - that’s all handled.

You just show up and get married.

You’re working with Lauren. Not a rotation.

Lauren Gunn is the founder of Pop-Up Vows and your lead officiant. She started this company in 2020 — sitting at her kitchen table on Long Island watching Governor Cuomo cancel every big wedding in New York — and decided to build something that actually worked for couples who wanted to get married.

Her background is in restaurants and hospitality, not weddings. Which means she knows how to read a room, keep things moving, and make people feel comfortable without making it a whole thing. She’s warm, quick, and genuinely loves doing this.

Couples say the same things after: it felt less like hiring a vendor and more like having someone they already trusted.
