Chrissy Gray: Founder and Creative Director
Seeing a need for environmentally sustainable event planning in the southern California region, owner Chrissy Gray coupled her love of creating memorable parties with her passion for environmental conservation, forming GRN Events in the spring of 2007. She holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology, with a minor in Environmental Studies from California State University Fullerton, and is certified in Meeting and Event Management, as well as Green Event Planning.
Chrissy is a So Cal native and currently resides in Costa Mesa. When she’s not planning the next big event Chrissy can usually be found riding her beach cruiser along the Orange County shores, exploring new hiking trails, or checking out the local music scene. Her attention to detail and ability to translate her client’s creative vision has made her, along with GRN Events, a name to remember in the event planning industry.
