I'd give more than 5 stars if I could!
Hiring Ashleigh from Everything After the Ring was hands down the best decision I made for my wedding. She wasn’t just my planner and florist — she was the calm in the chaos, the brain behind the beauty, and the reason I was able to enjoy every single moment of my day.
I found Ashleigh through my best friend who’s a local wedding photographer, and from our very first phone call, we clicked. She’s genuine and so easy to talk to — I’m honestly going to miss talking to her regularly now that the wedding is over.
As a planner, she was an absolute dream. I gave her a budget and shared my vision, and she made it happen. I chose the full-service planning package, and I have zero regrets. She did it all--coordinating vendors, allocating every dollar thoughtfully, and handling all the communication. She didn’t just keep me organized — she kept me sane. There were several moments when she had to talk me off the ledge because my overanalytical, Type A personality was second-guessing decisions. Honestly, she was part planner, part therapist.
On the wedding day, she handled every detail flawlessly. I was able to hand over control and be completely present. That alone speaks volumes. I trusted her fully — and I’m so glad I did, because she brought my vision to life in a way that surpassed what I thought was possible. When I saw the reception space for the first time, I literally jumped up and down. Our guests have not stopped talking about how beautiful it all was — and that’s 100% because of Ashleigh.
As a florist, she completely nailed the "English garden party" vibe I was dreaming of. Her style is romantic, lush, and whimsical. She created bouquets, aisle meadows, centerpieces, floral accents on the bar, baskets around the seating chart, and the most stunning cross flowers for our ceremony. When I saw my bouquet for the first time, I cried and my bridesmaids gasped. It was absolutely stunning. A retired wedding planner guest pulled me aside during the reception to ask who did the florals because she was so impressed. Another friend literally took a few flowers out of a centerpiece to take home because she loved them so much. My only regret is forgetting to tell Ashleigh to put any and all flowers that could be taken home in my car so I could enjoy them for even longer.
I’ve already recommended Ashleigh to some friends who are getting married, and I’ll continue to sing her praises to anyone who will listen. She’s talented, kind, and wildly good at what she does. If you want a planner and florist who will bring beauty, ease, and joy to your wedding day, run to book her. She’s that good.
