- It's TIME!!!! We made a snowy wonderland in my backyard filled with 700 gallons of snow. Not real snow--we are in Central Texas! How we made this happen and everything else that lead up to our BIG annual Christmas party. Shout out to everyone who made this happen--my team and all of my friends and family who traveled from near and far made this day super special. Merry Christmas, y'all!

When I say NOBODY does it like Raven, I mean nobody does it like you. Everything turned out so beautifully. You’re almost at 2 million. I’m so proud of you. Love you Ray! 🩷
Not gonna lie I was skeptical at first…but Raven pulled it together per usual! It’s beautiful and so cozy looking! And the ice sculpture is AMAZING 😍
Exactly!! Nobody!! 💯❤
Raven & Zoe should have their own show on HGTV 🙌🏾. The dynamic between them is too good. Raven has all these “crazy” ideas and Zoe is like the voice of reality yet still helps her and has all this knowledge. They are both so creative too it would just work 🙌🏾
I was thinking the same thing! This series reminds me so much of a tv show. Raven if you see this, i know you were going thru a time not know where to go next with your content… THIS is where you’re headed ❤

Literally she could do friends houses and other TH-camrs i would love to see it!
Please let your mom know she did a great job with the food. I was getting so hungry watching her prepare it.
This party blew my wig off! I'm thinking how she gunna pull off a Snow Ski Lodge party in Texas? Everything was top tier from decorations, games, food and entertainment... BRAVO Raven, Zoe , Chief Toni & Bougie the kitty cat who supervises the crew
This is such a side note but can we all appreciate how Ziya is being raised as a little girl? Always age appropriate and not out here being exploited and twerking for clicks? Such a genuine breath of fresh air on these SM streets 💖.
Yes absolutely agree with you 👍
Absolutely agree! Such a great point.
For any girl that age twerking is sexual exploitation and their parents need to be under the jail. Sad times we're in to even have to make such a comment.
I feel like Zoë is actually Raven's soulmate lol. Raven says and Zoë just knows.
I think so 😂
What a blessing Zoe has made to Raven. I remember how stressed Raven was about having an assistant!
@@rileylycanfrom a business standpoint don’t be weird
@@rileylycan Soulmates can be best friends and not just goin out w eachother weirdo
@@elsie3309lmfao
When Raven commits too a theme she COMMITS!💕
Ziya said “the rules are”…lol. That was her momma coming through! Raven has done it again. Everything looked so amazing 🤩 🎄 ❤ 💚
Raven this is an epic Christmas theme. You nailed it. Zoe is absolutely what an assistant should be. Knowing what you need before you can say it. Nicely done. 🌲🌲🌲
Been watching Raven for close to 10 years now and she always understands the assignment. Her level of intricacy is unmatched
I think we can all agree that Raven's creativity helps her to save a lot
Some would say it causes her to spend a lot.
Not at all lmao
Girl, this whole process was chef’s kiss from beginning to end. What a challenge but you did that! Toot toot! Love the addition of small businesses. ❤❤❤ Ilove Zya’s energy. She has really blossomed. Bougie always has to get his screen time and inspect every thing. 😊 Those boots are wild!
The ice sculpture! The snow pit! Spectacular work!
The ice sculpture was my second favorite touch!
Raven I love that your mom and dad are part of your company.Zoe has been a great addition !!!!! your whole team did an amazing job pulling your vision together. Happy holidays all❤
This was so cute. My favorite part was recording the playroom. Ziya is so cute!!
Raven I just have to shout out again the quality change and style of filming! Feels VERY much like an HGTV show 🤭😍 of course yet another amazing party done by you, looks so fun! ❤🎄 Happy Holidays to you and your family
I’m sitting here on Christmas Eve waiting on this video like its Santa Claus. Awesome vlog! 😂😂❤❤
Yaaaayyyy!!! I’m soooo excited!!! The anticipation has been killing me! 🤗🎄🎅🏽
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😆😆😆😆
Raven comes through with the parties every time, love to see it ❤️
ziya's dancing has me weak LOL
great video as always raven
💘
Zoe’s City Girls tour shirt had me out 😂 Homegirl is forever invited to the cookout ✊🏾
Unfortunately my puppy got me all muddy... It was one of my favorites!!
This was amazing! "Hosting parties" may not be an official love language but it's very clear that this is how you love on your people and it's so beautiful to witness. Thanks for bringing us along
Chef Toni is really that girl her food prep and setup is always amazing. I know it taste just as good
Santa, can you please leave a Zoë under my tree? Bc I need someone like her in my life lol. But on a serious note, Raven you really lucked out with her!! Yall balance each other out so well and she's so handy. I be watching these vlogs and thinking "Damn, is there anything Zoë can't do?" I'm convinced that between you, her, and Chef Toni yall can conquer the world 😂😂😂 Also, I love how every party is more and more elevated. You really out here doing it! Gonna be on that Kardashian-Jenner level when it comes to events soon if you keep at this rate and I'm here for it 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Wishing you, Zoë, and the fam a Merry Christmas 🎄
Zoe's mom here, no actually there isn't anything that amazing human cannot do! We are so so proud of her!
@@LisaOwensTrophyPetNannyThat's awesome! Zoe does an amazing job and seems so sweet, supportive and genuine. You raised a wonderful and special human being. ❤
@@LisaOwensTrophyPetNanny Hi Zoe's mom! You guys should absolutely be proud of her. She seems amazing!!! 😊
I was so excited for this video!!!! Although it was EVERYTHING I knew it would be, I am kind of sad that it is over for the year!
The Raven Elyse Team did an AMAZING job! Every year it gets better and better. Zoe has been the BEST fit for the team. She is so amazing.
It looks like fun was had by all. Next year you are going to need a venue by the looks of all the people who came out this year!
Raven, Merry Christmas to you and Ziya! You do a beautiful job of showing your friends and family what they mean to you every party you have. You have a beautiful heart and it shows. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and blessings to all!
Supporting and promoting small businesses and your friends hustles was a classy move Miss Raven 👌✨🎄
Yess I’ve been waiting for you to decorate the play room all pink 🤭
Happy Christmas Ray to you, Ziya, Chef Tony, Pawpaw, Zoëy, Mikaela & everyone else 🥰❤️
Why am I smiling without realizing it? You the real deal!!!❤😊
I would love to see what clean up after the event looks like! This was amazing!
I really appreciate what you’ve been pulling out for Christmas and let your love ones enjoy that unique moment. Bravo Ravens!!! Be blessed 😇 Joyeux Noël for Montréal, Canada
I’m so overjoyed with how everything turned out! YOU DID THAT RAVEN!!!! Creativity is definitely your calling. I can’t wait to get my house and start hosting parties like this. THIS is how you do it. I love the dynamic between you and Zoe. At this point I can’t wait to see what Zya’s sweet 16 will be like.
Ravennn!! your creative mind just fills my something in my soul!!! I hope to be able to do things like this one day. also, Ziya is going to appreciate this so much as she gets older!! And Zoë is the BEST!!! Love love love it Raven🥹🥰💖💖💖Merry Christmas!!
I’m 28 but I wanna be like Raven when I grow up! Still apartment living but when I get a house I’m coming back to all these videos and copying everything 🤣❤️
I love how excited Ziya is!!
Right!! It doesn’t happen often lol
@@rossanadecastro8377She gets excited all the time. She's just getting older and more expressive
Everything turned out beautifully. The food looks amazing. The snow pit a hit. The ski lift fantastic. Mr. and Mrs Claus brought it as usual. Wonderful guests, Zoe always pulls through. The gift shop was set up really great. That ice sculpture was truly a work of art. Lastly I love your boots. Maybe a trip to Aspen or Vail would be nice. I enjoyed the entire video; even watched all the commercials. Thanks again Raven for sharing your wonderful and creative life. May you have a blessed Christmas and a truly amazing 2024 with all the success that you desire. God bless you and your family.
Truly amazing
This was dopeeeee!!! I mean who wouldn’t come to a RavenElyse Party?! Awesome job to everyone who made this happen, really enjoyed watching the process and seeing the final result of everything!
Elyse Navidad! Everything turned out great. Your party looks like it was a big hit. ❄️🎄❄️🌲❄️
I’m new to this community but I will say, Brava, Raven!!! I discovered your channel because my husband and I threw our first holiday party and we used things from your holiday party last year and it was a hit. We had people from out of town and it turned into a slumber party…such a good time. It was all thanks to you, Raven!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I am in complete awe at how creative you are, Raven! This was a magnificent idea and those boots are fabulous with your outfit ❤! You never disappoint ☺️✨
I always want to know what do the neighbors say?😂 I just know Karen be standing on the corner like, “what’s going on over there now??”😂
I invite them! They know what's going on! lol

You guys kill the parties every time, y’all attention to detail is amazing . Truly an experience, I wish I could attend just to be a witness lol ❤
Zoe is a living doll❤❤❤
The creativity, the teamwork & the execution was just exemplary! Raven you had the vision, but your entire team provided you with the expertise & assistance needed to make your event an overwhelming success! Happy Holidays!!
Loved this one 😍, this is by far my favorite one from all the previous years. Great job Raven and team! MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄
I always say this then she tops herself with something later😂 I loved this!
It's great that Ziya gets so much use out of her playroom. It seems like a really great space for her and she just wrecks that room! :)
This party looks absolutely perfect! Every detail *chefs kiss*
Raven, your videos give me confidence that I can actually envision and create things all by myself! 🤗❤️
Bravo Raven and Zoey… Awesome job. I love your parties. You need your own show. I’m believing it’s going to happen for you ❤
I've been following you in more than 6 years and i've never got bored from your videos you're so creative smart and perfectionist. I'm so proud of you raven 🫶🏻😍
this hands down is the best christmas decorations you’ve done! love how this came out!
It's evident that Raven discovered a beautiful world that reaches way beyond a party theme. She knows how to make the magic of other worlds and lifestyles a daily reality. It's a beautiful skill and talent to cultivate. Imagine how many people want this whole package and experience for themselves! Raven makes it happen! 😊
Another awesome idea turned into another awesome party!!! You always show up and show out with your themes and you should be very proud of all you've done.
Raven the party was EPIC!!!! Everything was beautiful! Love the Ski Lodge theme and the snow pit! Big shout out to your mom,dad and other helpers and Zoe is wonderful! Nobody throw a party like RAVEN!!! Happy Holidays to you and your family!❤️🎄🎁❤️
Merry Christmas TeamRaven!!
If anybody deserves to toot toot their own horn...it most definitely would be you!! A+❤🎅🏾🤶🏾🎄💝👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👈🏾
SOOOOOOOO Outstanding. Amazing. Creative. Total package. On theme all the way! The best you’ve done to date and you’ve done the most awesome events. Congratulations sweetie!
Raven throws some of the most festive and well thought-out parties. The themes are fun. The decorations are on point. I really think that is a talent. I know she says that it takes a village. But the village works so well together. The end result is always impressive. I'm wishing Raven, her family, friends, loved ones and everyone in the comments a very Merry Christmas. ❤
Always outdoing yourself! Love to see the process behind this one.
Raven the party was just magical and this comes from a lover of ALL things Christmas!!!!
You have the best assistants on the planet! If we could just clone them the world would be a better place 😂. Amazing job once again Raven❤
I'm supposed to be cleaning up so I can't watch this right now but when I tell you I'm so happy this is an hour long 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️❤️
Creative ideas🎿, fun ❄️, and heartwarming 🎅🏾🤶🏾to see your guest enjoying all of your hard work and planning. I loved every moment of this video!❤🎄👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🎄❤
Your touch in hosting parties is so personal , you put so much effort in your work. Im sure you will be hosting celebrity parties in the future. Everything turned out so nice!
Hi Raven, this was absolutely amazing! You are the best at executing theme parties. I had fun just watching. Congratulations on a job well done! Mr & Mrs Claus was perfect and a hit as well.
I think a fun refresh for the play house in the new year would be painting the roof pink & updating some of the accessories on it to pink or green or orange or something.
Zoe is the best assistant wow. She just knows what your vision is and how to execute it. Big up Zoe🎉🎉😂
I am screaming! Couldn’t wait for this video to drop! I’ve been anxiously waiting 😂
This looks like such a good time!!! I’m always curious as to what clean up looks like after your parties. Would you ever vlog that portion?
You throw the most beautiful parties!!!! I also go over the top as well, not as elaborate as yours so I just love it! I have gotten so many ideas watching your videos. Thanks so much for your awesome visions and vibes.
That ice sculpture was everything 😍😍 everything turned out amazing you guys did a great job

When I tell you, I enjoyed this video so much I’m in bed watching my girl Raven do you have thing with her family and friends I will hire you in a second to make my dream come true like that. Happy holidays mama🎄💕💕
I just love the final part of the video. So many weeks following every single step and now we can see it all together. Raven you are my role model since you were in college, im so happy for you and Ziya. Love from Peru 🇵🇪

that ice sculpture is amazing and the snow pit looks just like real snow but I think the show stopper for me was the gift shop it looked so real like a real ski resort
I’m really glad that Raven is getting to enjoy the parties she’s throwing ❤❤
This is so cool! Like, wow! The decor, the collaborations, Santa, everything. So thoughtful!
Finally getting a chance to watch this and it's great to be immersed in the Christmas spirit a little longer. 🎄🥰 I love the gift shop set-up and the custom logo merch. Great party, as usual! Happy New Year to you & your family! 🎉

I watched this on my tv and I was amazed at your ski party - great ideas ❤
Love Zoe she knows so much, so helpful and creative you two work so well together. She is a diamond in the rough a gem. Make sure no one tries to steals her from you.
Wow! What a great party! The level of detail was awesome

You really put your heart and soul into your endeavors and you are the epitomy of GOALS! ! I watch you and other TH-cam vlogars do this every year and I love it😊
What great memories Zaya will have with all these great themed parties. I'm 64 and still treasure the memories of all the parties my mom used to throw. Nowhere near as detailed as these; but fabulous just the same.
Happy Holidays Raven, Zaya and Bougie. May all your Christmas wishes come true. 🎿⛷️
Another banger Raven...Very impressive💜 Love that your team all had a part in the planning. Merry Xmas to you and your family 🎄
