There are many amazing concepts that have come into play in the design and development of Historic Crenshaw Hall. Some of them are still mere ideas in the minds of those who have pledged their time to making the “Historic Crenshaw Hall experience” one of a kind. Others, we are seeing manifest a little more each day. But who are these individuals who are working to make your event experience once in a lifetime? Well here they are!
Tim Chase - General Contractor
Tim, I would like to say, is the guardian of Historic Crenshaw Hall. Throughout the years of renovation he has been careful to oversee every detail that has to do with the redesign of the home. Everything from refurbishing the intricate Italianate woodwork on the side porch to the changing of the doorknobs, Tim has had a hand in. It is comforting to know that there is someone like him to make sure the job is done right.
Margot DeBarmore- Landscape Designer
Margot is a woman overflowing with creative talent. Her watercolor rendition of Historic Crenshaw Hall has become a staple marketing piece for us. More than that, when the project was still very rough, her artwork was able to inspire us to imagine the finished product. Her detailed landscaping plan along with her pledge to oversee each step reassures us that our property will be unlike any other.
John Bennett - Owner
John inherited Historic Crenshaw Hall in 1994, and after discussing with his family about how to use the home, decided to make it into what it is today. John’s attention to detail and dedication to preserving his family home has ingrained in each of us a sense of ownership. His enthusiasm for Historic Crenshaw Hall is contagious!
Joyce Bennett- Manager and Bridal Director
Joyce manages the staff at Historic Crenshaw Hall. From developing and instituting standard policies, to collaborating with the decorator, Joyce has a hand in everything happening at the office and the venue. Her example motivates each of us to never be satisfied with mediocre and to always strive for success.
Jessica Hardin - Events Director
Jessica’s strengths are in her personal commitment to providing outstanding client service and her generous sense of humor. From the smallest meeting to the large gala, each project gets the most detailed attention. She can usually be found smiling at her desk, making sure that each potential client has all that they need to ensure a memorable event.
Elizabeth Griffin – Event Planner
When Elizabeth joined our staff early this year, the energy in our office became electric. We all love her “can-do” attitude and willingness to dive into any project that needs her help.
