Awarded Best of Zola
“My daughter had the most majestic wedding at The Vineyard at High Holly this year! We chose to use Lesley as our wedding planner and it was the best decision ever besides the choice to have it at the vineyard itself! Since we were living in Florida at the time, we had to do the majority of the planning meetings via zoom with Lesley, and it truly worked out very well with our schedules. Lesley was so great at giving us amazing and unique suggestions for the wedding so that my daughter’s wedding would have the one of a kind uniqueness that every bride to be wants! As my daughter was looking for a garden themed wedding, Lesley came up with amazing ideas that complimented the theme, like having colorful umbrellas for the audience, which turned out to be super helpful since it provided shade as well as protection from the sprinkling of lucky rain that graced us all! But truly, from helping us find an incredible florist, to helping create a beautiful and personalized table scape to the overall unique floor layout, to finding us a DJ that specifically met our needs, Lesley helped to give my daughter a gorgeous wedding experience that was one of a kind and highly personalized. As a note though, the setting of The Vineyard at High Holly is truly breathtaking just by itself, so even if one did not want to add on extras it would still be gorgeous. One of the highlights of the wedding in which Lesley coordinated, was the arrival of a marvelously well behaved family of Llamas that stood as decoration during the ceremony and then provided incredible opportunities for photos during cocktail hour, it was like a fairytale!!! Let us not forget the incredible food though.. They have a chef that does a phenomenal menu of literally anything in the world you could think of… and the quality of the food is absolutely exquisite! Lesley and her amazing chef met with us together on zoom for quite a while talking about all the options to choose from and were able to give us everything we wanted and worked hard to make sure it was within our budget too! The day of the wedding Lesley went from already being amazing in helping us to plan everything but becoming literally superhuman in making sure each and every detail was taken care of. There was always a golf cart arriving whenever anyone needed to be taken anywhere readily available and Lesley would pop in to make sure we had everything we needed frequently during the day. In fact, she even hemmed my husband’s pants at the last minute- god bless her!!! I don’t know how she does it, but she manages to do about fifteen things at once and still do them all well… and she truly does care and wants the experience to be everything you have dreamed of and more, and will go ten extra miles to make sure that it happens. If you are looking to have the most unforgettable experience of a lifetime and also want it to be a retreat for your guests, The Vineyard at High Holly is the perfect place to make it all happen!”

“I had the pleasure of working with Macy at CeNita Venue for an entire year leading up to my wedding. I booked the venue without seeing it in person as I live in FL and the venue is located in North GA. Macy was so kind and showed me the entire venue over facetime before I officially booked it! Any questions I had over the course of the year, Macy was available to answer them! The pictures of the venue are exactly what you are getting. The views are fantastic! I went with minimal decor (low budget) and it turned out better than I imagined it would. Everything came together the day of the wedding. All of my guests kept complimenting the entire property. My bridal party stayed in the Airbnbs on the same property of the venue. This made life so much easier for getting down to the venue the morning of the wedding. We were able to have our two pups as our flower girls (this was a big factor for us). We had nieces, nephews, and cousins at the wedding. There was so much space for the kids to run around! The bridal suite is very spacious and decorated so perfectly! There is a grooms room as well! I am so happy with my choice of wedding venue! These are some of the photos provided by Orchard Photo.”
