A Truly Great Team

I truly can't say enough good things about Holden Michael Events. Holden and his team were with us for 3 years because we were one of the covid 2020 weddings that got pushed. We hired him for design and month out coordination and it made the wedding easy to manage, a lot less stressful, and absolutely beautiful.

Holden and his team are top notch professionals and were available when we reached out with questions, provided great recommendations, and coordinated every detail. I am not good at design, so we hired him and his team for that. He listened to what we wanted, the aesthetic we were trying to achieve, and the general vibe of the wedding and delivered a beautiful design that was right on point for what we were looking for and then some. He handled all coordination of design rentals (tables, chairs, flowers, linens, etc.), was timely in sending invoices, and flagging when deposits and final payments were due. Everything was in an online platform you get access to that made it all very easy to manage.

On the day of our wedding, it poured (go figure it was beautiful all weekend until our wedding day). He was able to help me make quick decisions, keep me calm, and make pivots as we needed. The rain ended up stopping just in time for a beautiful wedding. Everyone kept remarking how beautifully designed the space was. Holden handled coordination of all the vendors and kept us on track with our schedule.

The best and most important thing I can say is that I simply wasn't worried about anything logistically that day. I had total confidence and peace of mind that Holden and his team had everything covered. And they did. Everything was perfect. It was a beautiful day, no stress (other than the rain), and I 100% attribute that to Holden and his team's ability to properly plan, adapt on the fly, and execute. This is the wedding planning team you should hire.
