After researching where to have a Valentines dinner I stumbled across this wonderful discovery. It checked all the boxes, romantic, intimate, decor, reasonably priced dinner with helpful and friendly staff. There are many converted dining areas among the rooms of the house. We were in the parlor I think overlooking the back yard just beyond the glass french doors where our table was positioned. Very pleasant. We enjoyed our dinner although the food was not the star experience I hoped for but nevertheless enjoyable from the limited choices. There were no menus. Waitress provided the details and it included the beverages. After dinner we were invited to walk through the various rooms of the house which were lovely. The entire downstairs were dining areas. The one that caught my eye was the library. It had a fireplace which added a warm feeling to the dimly lit room. There was also a separate dining area by the front of the house sporting more antique furniture and a fireplace. As we toured the house we went upstairs where all the bedrooms were. Each had their own charm. I expect those rooms were for changing areas for wedding parties. The mansion is mostly used for wedding events. It is a unique and lovely place in Thomasville to visit and I would highly recommend it for an event.

The food was actually better at the event then our tasting. While the caterer was great it would have helped tremendously if we could have communicated directly with the caterer instead of having to go through our point person at the Holt House. I believe inquiries would have been answered in a timely manner and we might have gotten a little better direction on some of our different options for food. The one drawback we had consistently was communication. Everything was great at the start and then as time went on our responses from our coordinator took weeks or were sometimes not answered at all. This became very frustrating. There were promises to get back to us by certain dates with answers to our questions which rarely happened. I believe they most likely do not have enough staff to cover the many locations they have.

Where to start?!Weddings are fun and lots of work...yes indeed!…read moreWith an event as special as a wedding the choices made are so important not only for a beautiful day but cherished memories to last a lifetime!Rest assured we made the right one by choosing The Holt House as the wedding venue for our daughter's grand day! This home is gorgeous y'all, the grounds are outstanding and too many picturesque spots for the ceremony and for capturing stunning photos to list. Lots of options here!The owners Jera and Nia shine in the area of event and wedding hosting, they know what they are doing every step of the way, true and trusted professionals! Their talents, integrity and Gods calling upon them to use their gifts of hospitality are a treasure to their clients and evident to any guests in attendance. Our daughter moved to another state than us and it made some planning aspects more challenging but Jera and Nia filled every gap, helping answering questions with planning, giving advice and tips regarding etiquette and ordering and were just so hands on the day of the event that every single detail of the day flowed perfectly. And I do mean perfectly! That's rare!Weddings can be very stressful but honestly they took the stress right out by their knowledge, experience, work ethic and professional care over the entire day. The day was in their capable hands as they coordinated each detail. The weather looked a bit ominous early on but they planned for every option to host inside or out but then the sun did came out and their plan to use multiple spaces for day and night were the best decision anyway because why not want to use as much of this special property as possible! Our family also had the pleasure of staying at the venue the whole weekend and it was lovely to say the least! Comfy beds, soft sheets and pillows and a good hot shower after a few long days of getting ready for the wedding were so welcomed! We can't thank them enough for making the day so "extra" special! We highly recommend The Holt House for any special occasion and doubt you'll be disappointed! So happy we found y'all and can't wait to cherish the memory and enjoy the beautiful pictures fondly! Every blessing wished for these special businesses owners as the gem they are to the Lexington community!

Danielle, the on site wedding planner that works for Gray Gables, did not show up at 10:30 am and when my daughter contacted the owner after no one answered at the venue, we were told she wasn't there.I went to find this woman in the main house. She was hanging out there. The schedule that Danielle and my daughter agreed upon was not executed at all and when I questioned her - she blamed it on the contracted photographer who works for us NOT Gray Gables. First look photos were to be at 1:15 yet Danielle was no where to be found delaying photos almost an hour! The photographer that works for us - not the venue- went to find her and ended up having to take the groomsmen photos because Danielle did not even try to locate the dads for first look. I had to seek out Danielle and then inform her of her duties to which she replied it's the photographers job. No ma'am, it's not. I literally said to her I need you to take charge so we aren't roaming your property blindly and if you aren't going to help as stated in the contract then tell me and we will do it all. She claimed she was busy setting up all morning however at 12:30 when the florist arrived there were no tables set for flowers to be placed in the hall or on the patio for the cocktail hour. So my florist facilitated that too-I honestly don't know what she was busy with from 8 am to 1:30. She should have been available. Danielle finally went to my daughter 40 minutes later who was waiting patiently in the trees for first looks on RED mulch that was freshly put out the day before. That's important because it rained the night before and my daughter could not move without assistance if she wanted to keep her dress from being stained. Danielle apologized to my daughter; however, my daughter had to pull up the contract to read it to her to prove her duties. The photo schedule was significantly behind at this point so we didn't get bride and mom or bride and bridesmaids shots. The bridal attendee we hired from the venue did not show until 2:30 (although I must say Melissa helped get us through photos). No one greeted guests or helped with parking so they almost ran into my daughter as she was finishing pictures. It was so much confusion. When a car alarm went off as the wedding party was lining up - Danielle refused to go see which car since as she told me she wouldn't know who it belonged to. When we entered the reception hall, the donut cake had already been eaten from so my daughter did not have a groom and bride moment. The wedding planner, Daniele, that we hired from the venue then approached me about 8:30 pm to have me not only clear out the bridal suite, but also orchestrate decorating the car so I missed the fun games with my daughter and her new hubby. I should have declined but I was already used to running around all day doing their job- I wanted to make sure things went well fo my daughter. I also missed the dad and daughter dance - Melissa eventually came and got me so I could see the steps dad and daughter dance thankfully but as you can imagine I spent the night doing wedding planner duties.  I sprinted from the bridal suite to the reception hall in my heels and fancy dress sweating to catch the last 30 secs of the groom and his mom dancing. The entire staff is simply not helpful. They will not speak to you or your guests.They will not assist at all. WHO puts the mother of the bride to work during the reception! Finally a few quality/safety notes. The outside light for the bridal cottage is out. The small area in front of the door to the cottage that joins to the deck is about to fall through. Don't step there. The bridal cottage also had a recent leak evidently and the interior ceiling is stained. I want it to be great but it's run down and the staff can not pull off what they promise. The shuttle is limited to 11 people and runs one time, not multiple times as promised. On top of that guests were allowed to occupy the bridal suite all night so lock your stuff up before the wedding begins.

The owner and her son Coleman are so helpful in ensuring you have a wonderful experience.
