Who can do it better?

Here's the thing, dear review reader. Brevity is the soul of wit and I hope you will find this review both succinct and informative. Then you can promptly book Holly so that she may, for a time, shine her light on a special moment in your life.

If I could give six stars I would. Holly is like a 3-star Michelin chef but her kitchen is your venue and your event is the dish she carefully and lovingly crafts with all your favorite ingredients. Not just my partner and I were blown away by the creativity, attention to detail, and professionalism that Holly brought to our wedding--but our guests shared in that sentiment as well. Many claiming it was "one of, if not the best wedding" they've ever been to. You can't put a price on that. And if you read any of these other reviews, you will see this feedback is common. Talk about consistency!

Lastly, I want to state the obvious. Not only does Holly bring the above noted qualities to the table but she also carries with her an impressive catalog of world-class vendors who can assist in elevating your event into the stratosphere. When it comes to creative, uniquely you events - do not make the mistake of hiring anyone else.

Holly works magic

Holly is enthusiastic, visionary, and can-do. She assembled a top-flight team of vendors for our LGBTQ wedding, all women- or LGBTQ-owned. She went to bat for everything we wanted and then some. Her generosity and good cheer knows no bounds. And she created an elegant, unique look for our wedding and had everything planned to the minute, while remaining calm and flexible. A joy to work with.

Wedding and event planning is an absolute art!

In an age of self-checkout and self-service, Holly Gray offers a complete and comprehensive event planning service. Holly makes a concerted effort to immerse herself in every aspect of an event, ensuring that it is a wholly complete and thoroughly thought-out and amazing affair. My partner and I were lucky enough to hire Holly to handle the event planning aspects of our wedding. We believe that wedding and event planning is an absolute art. While sometimes the finished product and the artist can be worlds apart; in the case of Holly Gray, both she and her events are incredibly similar. If you haven’t yet had the chance to meet Holly in person, she is elegant, stylish, refined, adaptable and collaborative, yet she is be fun, funny, witty, and always professional and incredibly original. My partner and I would suggest that our experience in working with Holly for our incredible wedding weekend was and is a reflection of her as a person and as an artist! She gave us her all to make our wedding weekend a resounding success that we will recall and look back on fondly for the rest of our lives. In the weeks and now month since our wedding, guests still contact us and tell us that we had the most amazing wedding that they’ve ever attended. It is such a joy to hear such kind compliments. However, a lot of the credit should go to Holly and her team. In fairness to Holly, my partner and I are not the easiest of clients. We both have a history of event planning and hosting events for clients as well as hiring and working with vendors. Therefore, we were likely more opinionated and fastidious about certain details than other clients. To Holly’s credit, she embraced this and made quick work to collaborate and work with each of our vendors. In addition, we believe that this is a testament to Holly’s talent and her superb organizational skills, as well as ability to be flexible and to do what it takes to get the job done. Although many aspects were pre-selected by us, there were many things that only someone like Holly with her industry and vendor connections could handle and execute. Moreover, Holly was able to sift through the hours of discussion and a sea of options to help my partner and I decide on a theme(s) for our events. Holly paid close attention to details with the specific issues of our wedding venue and the nature of the area helped ensure that our wedding looked beyond great. As anyone who has has hosted a special event will attest after the countless hours of work, preparation and attention to every detail, there comes a point that one must hand over the reins to fate and to the people you’ve entrusted to assure that everything will run smoothly. When you are fortunate enough to work with Holly Gray, you can rest assured that you are in the most capable of hands, that details will be and/or are being handled with the utmost care and consideration. Indeed, we would work with Holly again! We highly recommend her to couples and organizations looking to plan an event that requires finesse and originality, elegance and refinement, but that is thoroughly fun and unforgettable!
