"...the venue is GORGEOUS and we had a PERFECT day." |
|
(Wedding Wire Review)
Holly Hills was the absolute most wonderful venue we could have imagined for our wedding.
First of all, they offer a wedding coordinator who is incredibly helpful and included in the cost of the venue, which is INCREDIBLY affordable, especially when you consider the surrounding area. I planned most of the wedding from out of state because of my job and I cannot say enough about how helpful they were. I worked with Margret who was AMAZING. She is professional, organized, and so kind. She offered advice, coordinated with my vendors during the week prior to the wedding and was hands on the day of the wedding ensuring everyone was perfect. If anything went wrong, I had no idea because everything ran so smoothly.
Also, let me say a quick word about Emily who is the new wedding assistant and was there to work with us as well. She was very sweet and though I didn't have the same history with her, she was hands on, also coordinating day of events and provided that additional support we needed - what a sweet person to have around!
Not only are the people lovely, but the venue is GORGEOUS and we had a PERFECT day.
All in all, our wedding was incredible and quite possibly the most perfect day I could have ever imagined, if not even more so - in LARGE part to the wonderful staff and DELICIOUS food (lest i forget to mention - soooo yummy) at Holly Hills. Thank you so much!

"...beautiful and beyond perfect for our ceremony and reception." |

(Wedding Wire Review)
Holly Hills was beautiful and beyond perfect for our ceremony and reception. I thought it was a huge bonus that the country club does the catering. An even bigger bonus was that the food was so delicious. Margret, the on-site wedding coordinator, was great. She was extremely responsive and helpful both before and during the wedding. She helped coordinate with vendors and helped time the entire day. The staff at HH did a lovely job setting up and breaking down everything at the end of the night. Our wedding went off without a hitch and I cannot thank Margret and the rest of the Holly Hills staff enough!

(Wedding Wire Review)
Margret was very quick to respond and extremely helpful with answering all my questions. She and her staff took care of everything to make sure my wedding day was seamless and went off without any problems. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone getting married with less than or around 150 guests.

"The food was very delicious..." |

Margret,
I just wanted to thank you for your hospitality and coordination of the Roldan & Guernsey Reception this past weekend. The food was very delicious and I thank you for thinking about the vendors. You and your staff made me feel more like a guest then just some vendor. You run a tight ship but have balanced it by being very accommodating and inviting. I have passed your information off to Dave Melton, Owner of Black Tie DJs. He will contact you at some point. If you ever need a reliable and professional disc jockey service that you can count on please do not hesitate to call us, it would please us to serve you and your clients once again.
Have a great day Margret and thank you again.
Best wishes,

"All in all, a FANTASTIC venue." |
|
(Wedding Wire Review)
The staff at Holly Hills was great and Margret was absolutely amazing! She answered all of my questions in a timely manner, and on the day of the wedding, she was on top of everything making sure the day went smooth. I heard that the steaks were a bit rare for some of the guests, but the staff was more than happy to take back and cook the steaks more for guests that requested it. I got so many compliments on how beautiful the venue was, how professional and helpful the staff were and how delicious the food was, especially the appetizers. All in all, a FANTASTIC venue.

(Wedding Wire Review)
The wedding coordinator, Margret, was wonderful throughout the entire process. She would return emails fairly quickly and answered all of my millions of questions. The flexibility the entire staff showed on the day of my wedding was amazing. It was a quick last minute decision to move the ceremony inside, they did it, made it look beautiful, and I did not have to worry about anything. I would definitely recommend Holly Hills to any one else who is looking to get married in the Frederick area.

"...a beautiful location a wedding reception, and the staff was amazing!" |

(Wedding Wire Review)
Holly Hills was a beautiful location a wedding reception, and the staff was amazing! Margaret, the wedding event planner, had everything under control, she worked with all my other wedding vendors in the weeks before the wedding to make sure they had access to the space when they needed it. I also loved that Holly Hill only books one wedding in a day so I didn't have to worry about working my wedding into one of their time blocks. I would highly recommend using Holly Hills to anyone looking to get married in the Frederick, MD area.

Holly Hills provided an outstanding venue for my son's wedding. Margret Kostolansky made my experience easy and memorable. She took care of things so I did not have to and I was not pulled away from the activities to answer questions. Her service staff were all pleasant and helpful. I have nothing but good things to say for a wedding at Holly Hills!!

My daughter's wedding was April 30 2011. We had a wonderful time and the staff was incredible they treated us like family and we were a difficult bunch to deal with. The bartenders were INCREDIBLE!!!!!! Margret Kostolansky was FANTASTIC!!!!! you would have thought we were part of her family. Any doubts or fears we had she was there for us so accommodating. I can't say enough about Margret!!!!! My husband and I are so taken and impressed by Margret that we are planning our 31st 2012 anniversary with her already :)

"...beautiful venue, excellent staff and a reasonable price..." |

Dear Margret,
Holly Hills Country Club was the perfect setting for our wedding and reception this past March 2011. Margret and her staff was outstanding in assisting us with all the details leading up to our big day. We loved the idea of having one place for everything and since we only had 3 plus months between the choice of our venue and wedding day it made planning very easy. The entire staff and wedding coordinator made sure everything went off with out a hitch when the big day arrived. If you’re looking for a beautiful venue, excellent staff and a reasonable price then look no further than Holly Hills Country club for your wedding and or reception.
Sincerely,
Jim and Gladys Waters

Not having to worry about anything was a huge relief because we knew you were handling everything. During both the ceremony and reception you were everywhere making sure all went smoothly. We tell everyone we talk about the wedding what an awesome job you did. Holly Hills is fortunate to have you!

Margret-
I just wanted to take the time to thank you and the entire staff for a wonderful event. Everything went as planned. The dinning room looked beautiful and the service was impeccable. Everyone said they loved the food. Holly Hills is a great place for a wedding reception. Not only was my daughter Kate's reception wonderful but my daughter, Aubrey's was wonderful in 2006 (dispite a hurracane). Many, many thanks to all helped make this a wonderful event. A special thanks to Chef, Margaret, Elizabeth, Katie and Nancy. We had a blast as did all the guests.

"Thank you a thousand times for the perfect wedding!" |
|
(Knot.com Review)
Our wedding coordinator, Margret, is absolutely fabulous! It is obvious that she is phenomenally talented at her job, and she was a dream come true to work with. Margret was never overbearing with ideas and always let us use our own creativity--she only helped when help was needed, which is what we were looking for. She is extremely organized and efficient, and on top of this she has a wonderful personality. The venue is absolutely stunning with gorgeous photo opportunities and the food was amazing! The entire staff was outstanding and should be commended for their attention to detail, courteousness, and enthusiasm for their work. Thank you a thousand times for the perfect wedding!

"...Holly Hills-- it is worth the money and so much more!" |
|
(Wedding Wire Review)
I couldn't have picked a better venue than Holly Hills Country Club. Living in MD, it is very hard to find an elegant venue with a good price tag. The grounds are gorgeous-- I got comments all day and after the wedding about how beautiful it was. The staff were amazing-- great service with a smile. They took care of the setup/take down for the event with barely any instruction from me. They were courteous and very helpful. Anything my guests wanted or needed they did their best to take care of quickly and efficiently. Holly Hills also did the catering-- the food was AMAZING and we received compliments about it all night (it's definitely true that guests remember bad food--we didn't have that problem in the least). The wedding Coordinator, Margaret, was a godsend. Even though I planned my own wedding, any questions or concerns I had she helped with. I could email her at any time of the night and she would email back as soon as she could. She helped with all the small details (she definitely knows what she's doing) and I didn't have to worry about anything with her there. We received sub-par service from another vendor but with a little of Margaret's creativity, the problem was fixed and my nerves were calmed. DEFINITELY go with Holly Hills-- it is worth the money and so much more!

(Wedding Wire Review)
Overall, my husband and I were very satisfied with Holly Hills Country Club. The service we received prior to our wedding made that part of the planning rather stress-free. The day of our event was amazing. Everything was exactly the way we wanted it. We basically just showed up, got ready, and walked down the aisle. They took care of everything! This allowed us to enjoy our day even more without worrying about the little details.
