    Fantastic and beautiful!

    The team at Ashleigh’s garden did an absolutely amazing job with our July 2023 flowers! I absolutely loved my bouquet, it was exactly what I had wanted, classic but organic. Our centerpieces were beautiful bud vases filled with a few flowers and stems that matched our vibe just right. Allison was an incredible help throughout the process answering questions and helping to shape our vision throughout the planning process. If you are looking for a florist most definitely reach out to them!

    Fantastic!

    My husband and I knew that we wanted to work with Allison from Ashleigh's Garden immediately once we began wedding planning because of the mission she and the business have in their dedication to rescue animals, a passion close to our hearts. We got married in June 2023 at Eolia Mansion at Harkness Park and could not have been more pleased with her beautiful work. I met with her for an in-person consultation a few months before the big day and she was so helpful in both seeing our vision and also providing money-saving tips that looked even more elegant than I had pictured myself. My bridal bouquet is stunning to this day (I have dried it) and the bridesmaid bouquets came with adorable personalized name cards and vases for them to take home at the end of the night. We chose hydrangeas to honor my late grandmother because it was her favorite flower and Allison helped me add to this by suggesting plants and flowers that were native to the area around Harkness Park. Everything was delivered to the mansion before we even got there to get ready on the big day and they set it all up seamlessly. You will get top quality floral work with Ashleigh's with a beautiful and heartfelt mission at the core - what more could any of us ask for? Would choose them again in a heartbeat!

    Beautiful flowers, awesome attention to detail!

    Ashleigh’s garden went above and beyond for my wedding! They made the most beautiful arrangements, bouquets and corsages/boutonnières for my wedding day. I provided them with a few pictures and shared my ideas and they took it and ran! The results- phenomenal florals that I am still dreaming about. They surpassed all my expectations! They were reasonably priced, prompt with communication and super friendly and helpful during the planning process. They were right on time for a quick set up the day of with everything labeled and ready to go for the wedding party. The attention to detail is unremarkable, you can tell everything, especially the arrangements and bouquets, were very thoughtfully put together. All the flowers were absolutely perfect and so fresh!I’d highly recommend using them for any floral needs!

    Beautiful Unique Florals!

    I got married at The Riverhouse 6/19/21 and Ashleigh's Garden was my florist and I couldn't have picked a better floral team. I have been a wedding planner for years and floral/design was incredibly important to me and I had very high standards for design. I also wanted a more unique floral design (slightly darker, moodier) and Karen and her team delivered more than I could imagine! I met with Karen and was able to hare a few photos of inspiration- she took it and ran with it and everything was exactly as I envisioned when I couldn't even articulate it myself. I had 3 types of centerpieces and Karen designed the room so they all flowed together well. Karen was great with responding and sharing her opinions and details of what she was going to do!

    Fantastic!!

    I would highly recommend working with Ashleigh’s garden. Allison was great to work with and provided really great suggestions while being practical about what we really needed. Provided really great suggestions for the center pieces. They really thought of everything and incorporated our thoughts and ideas into everything.

    Absolute perfection!

    Our wedding flowers were absolutely perfect and so much better than I ever could have anticipated. We told Allison the vibe of our wedding and made broad requests for what we wanted the flowers to look like (gardeny was sort of the extent of my explanation) and WOW did she "get" it. Her understanding and implementation of my ill-explained aesthetic made our photos, cocktail hour, and reception so special. For the first time in the history of weddings, our guests even asked to bring our centerpieces home (no begging or games necessary)!! She also made the worlds cutest flower collar for my bridesdoggy harper :) My bouquet lasted over a week after the wedding, which is unheard of especially in my house (I have a black thumb). LOVE LOVE LOVE Ashleighs Garden and Allison and the wonderful things she does for animals in need.

    Working. With Allison the past year has been great- she was able to take a vision I had and keep it within our price range! Our flowers and center pieces were outstanding and brought sparkle to the room! Thank you!

    Talented & Easy to Work With

    Ashleigh's Garden did a lovely job for my clients wedding florals. They were flexible and creative in working with my clients to fit their vision within their budget - to include the offer to pick the florals up the day of to save on delivery costs. The florals were absolutely stunning - bold, luscious & perfectly captured the bride's style! Excited to recommend this talented professional again in the future.

    At first I thought I wanted to take care of all the florals on my own (to save money) but I quickly realized it would be a lot better to hire a professional. We went with Ashleigh's Garden because it came recommended by a friend and was a preferred vendor at our venue. I only had a vague idea of what I wanted, so Allison designed all my bouquets, boutonnieres and centerpieces. They were amazing for our winter wedding!

    Ashleigh's Garden did the flowers for my wedding this past weekend at Water's Edge. The flowers for our ceremony and reception were absolutely perfect, and exactly what I was looking for...and more. The rose petal arrangement down the aisle was so perfect and romantic. Allison was a pleasure to work with throughout this entire process. I would highly recommend Ashleigh's Garden for your wedding!

    Allison and her team at Ashleigh’s garden were so great to work with for our wedding. After our first meeting with her, we knew she was going to do a great job for our wedding. Flowers were really important to us and we had a pretty detailed plan of what we wanted for the wedding and she was able to give us suggestions and recommendations on how to make it even better. She had samples in her shop of some of the flowers we wanted which helped us to visualize for the wedding day. When we actually did see the flowers on the wedding day our breaths were taken away. It was exactly how we had pictured it; everything was so beautiful from the bouquets, bouts and flower crown, to the table arrangements, they really hit it out of the park! Allison’s shop is also home to many animals and as animal lovers that really sold us! We would highly recommend Allison to any future bride and groom!

    Allison is truly amazing! Her work is absolutely gorgeous and she is so kind. The flowers were simply stunning and I received so many compliments on them. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a florist in that area. She also has an incredible animal sanctuary in her store.

    Ashleigh's Garden is amazing, and Allison is a rock star florist. She always had my best interest in mind throughout the planning process, recommending things that were within my budget and never trying to sell me something more. At an economical budget, she took my vision and made it even better. I couldn't believe it when I walked into our reception hall for the first time - I felt like I was in a dream! If you can use Ashleigh's Garden for your floral needs, definitely do. Not to mention that she supports many, many rescue animals through her work -- it's a cause worth contributing to!

    I can't say enough about how wonderful Allison and her team are. My wedding flowers were beautiful, better than I imagined. She was responsive to emails, and never tried to up-sell me. She made staying within my budget a priority. I am a huge animal lover, and loved that our meetings were next to rescued birds and cats :)

    Ashleigh's Garden went above and beyond for our wedding. When I walked into the venue, I was shocked how amazing the flower arrangements looked along with the bouquets. Allison did an amazing job putting everything together and we couldn't have asked for a better florist. Anytime we had a questions we never had a problem getting a response. Very professional and also pet friendly! Which we thought was a great touch since we love dogs! We would highly recommend Ashleigh's Garden for any type of event!

    Allison was wonderful to work with. She was prompt in meeting with us and spent time to understand our vision. We got a test centerpiece and the colors were a bit off. I emailed her and sent a couple more pictures and she was flexible and understanding. I also threw her another curve ball when my mom's hydrangea bush mysteriously bloomed one single bloom the week before the wedding. I called and asked if it could be incorporated into my bouquet and Allison was very accommodating and so excited that I could have that sentiment for the big day (even though it was 2 days before the wedding!). The flowers the day of were perfect!!

    Ashleigh's Garden provided the flowers for my wedding on September 10, 2016, and I couldn't be happier with how they turned out. Allison and her staff were a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. I met with Allison for the first time almost a year prior to my wedding. I told her my vision, and she really took it to the next level while still staying with the whole "vibe" of my wedding and within my budget. She was also very honest, encouraging me at times that "less was more" and not to spend more money if I didn't have to, which I really appreciated. Together, we came up with a beautiful combination of flowers which Ashleigh's Garden executed perfectly for the day of the wedding. I would highly recommend Ashleigh's Garden to any Connecticut bride! If you have a vision, they can make it a reality!

    I loved working with Allison and was extremely impressed with the beautiful flowers at our wedding! When I first met with Allison, she provided great suggestions on what I was looking for all while staying within budget. Her flowers are absolutely beautiful and full and went above my expectations. She was very easy to work with and made sure that I was happy with everything every step of the way. Thank you Allison and everyone at Ashleigh's Garden!

    First and foremost what impressed me is the time that Allison, the owner, takes to meet with the bride and groom to get a feel of who they are and what their likes/dislikes are. Planning your flowers can be overwhelming as there are so many flowers and styles to choose from. Allison created the most beautiful arrangements and bouquets for my daughter's wedding in August which was held at the Pondhouse in West Hartford. My daughter wanted to do something different then your typical floral arrangement on each table. The Pondhouse is what I would describe as rustic chic. Allison came up with a great idea of individual bottles on each table - I believe it was 5-7 bottles per table depending on the size of the bottles. She could provide the bottles or we could get our own. We decided to see if we could find enough bottles at antique shops. We collected antique bottles from all over so they were all different. It was fun but a lot of work to find so many bottles but worth it. Allison and her staff created the stunning centerpieces using bottles in all different shapes and sizes with gorgeous flowers - they fit the room perfectly - were in no way overpowering like some centerpieces can be. She even gave us the idea to give the bottles to the guests for their favor - she made a beautiful tags with the guests names on them that were tied to each bottle. She also created the most beautiful design of rose petals on the aisle that matched the bridal bouquets. We received a lot of compliments from our guests on the bridal parties bouquets and the centerpieces. People were thrilled when they realized that they could take the bottles home with them! You will not be disappointed if you use Ashleigh's Garden for your wedding.

    Allison and her team were so easy to work with and did an amazing job. I was really looking for a florist who would work with me to advise me on what flowers and arrangements would give the best bang-for-the-buck, and Ashleigh's garden was so helpful with that. I didn't have to worry about a thing, everything was beautiful - and lasted so long! The arrangements were still beautiful a week after the wedding.

    Beautiful arrangements, they understood perfectly what we wanted. Delivery on time and flexible. After the wedding they pick up everything and donated the center pieces as we asked, it was beautiful. Huge hearts and great taste.

    Allison at Ashleigh's Garden was everything you could ask for in a florist and more! She totally "got" my vision and went out of her way to make everything come out the way I wanted it. She lent me two vintage typewriters from her daughter's collection for our welcome table, set up all the old books I brought from work to use as our centerpieces (I'm a librarian), and the bouquets - oh my gosh, the bouquets! They were beyond belief!!
