Exceptional

Allie and her team at Grey Cardinal Events exceeded our expectations! To say her and her team were detail-oriented and thorough would be a huge understatement. From the first meeting to the final goodbye, I felt at such ease with everything. They made our special day go so smoothly and flow effortlessly.

Wedding planning

We could not have had our perfect wedding without the help of Jill. She helped us during the planning process by providing us with monthly and weekly checkins to keep us on track along with providing day of coordination. She was always on time and organized during all of our meetings, our rehearsal, and our wedding day. We were a wild couple who just wanted to have fun and Jill made sure to keep us on track to make sure we got everything out of our wedding day that we had imagined. She set up our reception space beautifully and we were pleased to find everything neatly packed up and ready to go the next morning. We cannot thank Grey Cardinal Events enough for making our dream wedding a reality!
