Best Wedding Planners and Florist in Town!

My husband and I could not have been more satisfied with Kickstand! The whole team was professional, punctual, creative, and organized throughout the entire experience. While we definitely had plenty of vague ideas for our wedding, Courtney and Sally helped pull it all together to create a comprehensive vision and made sure every detail was executed perfectly. With their collective industry experience, they were able to make recommendations and connect us with vendors we didn’t even know we needed. Knowing that they were on top of everything really alleviated wedding-planning-stress that typically drives couples crazy! Above all, the day of the wedding they handled the entire operation, allowing us to truly relax, spend time with our loved ones, and enjoy the celebration we designed. If you are planning a wedding, I wouldn’t do it without them, they are the best in town!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
