Highly Recommend!

We had Alison to the Altar as our florist and month of wedding coordinator. Stephanie was awesome to work with! She was so down to earth, professional and was able to keep our rowdy group organized. Alison perfectly executed the colors of our flowers and they both gave great recommendations throughout the planning process. We can't thank them enough for making our big day so special!
