Kelsey Gray Events

We hired Kelsey to do our flowers and she exceeded expectations! Since I wanted mostly locally grown flowers, we had to wait to see what would grow well this season. We were nervous since we didn’t know exactly what they would look like, but it ended up being absolutely stunning! Kelsey really listened to my ideas and took the reference photos I provided into account. I appreciate that she made us feel calm about this process and I love that she is committed to more sustainable options for flowers! We definitely recommend her :)

10/10 - Kelsey is the entire reason our wedding was so beautiful and enjoyable. She was both our wedding planner and our florist. She is patient, kind, reliable and organized. The thing that made me choose her initially was her kind and calm demeanor. She wants you to have your perfect day, but knows that can only happen with realistic expectations and action. Kelsey is so level-headed and organized, we never had to worry if everything would come together. One of our vendors was very difficult to work with but since it was what we wanted, Kelsey made it happen for us. If you're not looking for a planner (I would urge you to re-consider ;)) but need a florist, she was amazing at that too. All of our florals were beautiful and we got so many compliments from guests. Our photographer, caterer, HMU and venue reps also all commented on how wonderful Kelsey is to work with as a professional. If you want a beautiful, peaceful wedding + planning process, Kelsey Gray Events is the planner/florist you've been looking for!

Kelsey did a wonderful job with my wedding florals! I feel like she really listened to me during our final call and selected flowers that I had envisioned. I only removed 1 star due to the fact that I feel that the overall price was a bit too high for what I got. I didn't want to spend too much money on flowers so I didn't really go overboard and just ordered the basic things - bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces, aisle markers and 2 attachments on a pergola we had for our ceremony. This could have been due to the cost of flowers in general, which I know have gone up and is not the vendor's fault. I just wish it had been a little more cost effective. Overall, Kelsey did a fantasic job and I would recommend her to all brides!

When we chose Kelsey as our partial wedding planner, I (the bride) was in the process of relocating from Memphis to Middle Tennessee. At that point, I was looking for a new house to live in and new job. As you can imagine, planning a wedding on top became quite stressful. The only thing we had done at this point was our venue, caterer, and photographer and were left to do with the many details that are involved when planning a 150 person wedding. After we began working with Kelsey, we quickly saw that we made the right choice. Kelsey is organized, detail oriented, and reliable. Most importantly in my opinion, Kelsey excels in communication with her clients as well as bridging conversations with other vendors. We trusted Kelsey and valued her opinions with all things Wedding. I often felt overwhelmed with the choices and decisions that went along with planning but having Kelsey on our team felt like a weight off my shoulders. She helped us stay on track and realistic with our budget and even saved us money in some instances! For example, our venue allowed tent sharing between clients. When the couple whose wedding was the day after ours expressed interest, Kelsey took initiative in getting the tent share agreement started then done (which involved collaboration between us, the other couple, our venue manager, and tent vendor) and saved us quite a bit of our budget. The day of the wedding, I was blown away by how well Kelsey integrated all of my preferences and choices with her design expertise. On top of being our awesome wedding planner, Kelsey was our florist too! Flowers were not at the top of our priority list as far as budget allocation went but still, Kelsey created beautiful bouquets and boutonnieres and floral arrangements for our altar and guest tables. After the wedding, I kept my bouquet in a vase at home and it continued to be beautiful for almost two weeks! I highly recommend Kelsey as an event planner. We have greatly appreciated her hard work and patience with us as we muddled through this process. The only thing I would have done differently was have her on with us from the very beginning!
