After showcasing what a determined, ambitious, and dedicated individual she is, Holly has quickly and deservedly transitioned into the role of Planning and Event Design Coordinator.

Special events are a lot like staging an interior of a room, both involve a great deal of planning and creating, both involve the pressure to impress, and if something happens, you need to be able to improvise and come up with solutions. Holly takes pleasure and pride in the fact that each wedding and event produced by EBE is unique and custom to the client.
Holly brings to the EBE team a background in Interior Design from the Art Institute of Vancouver and an abundance of experience in customer service. She has a hunger for knowledge and all things beautiful. Holly plans to continue her education and receive her WPIC certificate this year.
