Beautiful Views and Incredible Service - Highly Recommend!

After our first tour of Riverbend at River's Edge, my fiancé said "book it." The venue is a remodeled supper club offering the original bar, wooden beams, copper walls, floor to ceiling windows, and updated bride/groom suites. It is the perfect mix of modern and rustic. We had our ceremony and reception onsite with plenty of space for all of the guests. Cathy, the venue manager, was easy to work with and very responsive. She helped us select the bar offerings along with the room floor plans. Once onsite, we had nothing to worry about. Riverbend at River's Edge is just outside the cities on the Apple River, making it the perfect escape for the weekend while still drivable for guests nearby. We highly recommend you take a look for yourself!

Our wedding was on June 23rd and Cathy did all of our flowers and our tuxes. We told her so many things that we wanted and she was able to accommodate all of it. The flowers were more beautiful than I could have imagined and everyone complimented on them! We did have a few hiccups along the way but we were on the same page about almost everything so it all worked out in the end. We had flowers and garlands used as centerpieces, ceremony decorations, other random vases, bouquets, boutonnières and corsages along with 7 tuxes for the guys. I am so happy that we found Apple Blossom Events! Thank you for everything!

Cathy was extremely easy to work with and helped me tremendously. I gave her ideas, and she created beautiful bouquets. I would recommend apple blossoms to anyone!

Cathy was absolutely AMAZING to work with. I planned my WI wedding from CA, so I never actually met with Cathy in person. We discussed everything over a couple phone calls, e-mails, and sharing my flower Pinterest board with her. I had 6 bouquets, flower girl, and toss bouquet. One boutonniere and 2 mother's wrist flowers. I had a total of 18 center pieces in 3 different designs: 6 garland, 6 in a wooden box, and 6 in a chalice of sorts with 2 books and a longer garland for the head table. I also rented a chandelier and fabric for added decoration for a birch trellis (provided by my venue). I loved everything, and they did all the set-up for me the morning of the wedding. I was confident with hiring Cathy, as she came recommended through my venue, so I knew I would be safe with my venue's requirements for no glass, etc.

Cathy & her team at Apple Blossom Events are fantastic to work with! We initially booked ABE for bar service, and once we saw her selection of rental items (at very reasonable prices) we also booked her for that service as well. The bar service was fantastic - we provided the alcohol & mixers and ABE served the drinks to our guests. Additionally, the items we rented were perfect for our space (items ranging from candle holders to a large coffee pot). Cathy has incredible experience with weddings & events, and it really shows when she is preparing for the event all the way through to execution. The price for the quality of service cannot be beat!

Working with Cathy and Apple Blossom Events was one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding! From the very beginning, Cathy was so easy to talk and work with. She's incredibly knowledgeable about floral design, but also the whole event planning business! She made the process so smooth for us and paid great attention to our requests. We used Apple Blossom Events for our flowers, various decor rentals, bartending service and set up and take down. Every one of those services exceeded our expectations on the day of our wedding and we can't praise Cathy and her team enough for making our special day so beautiful and as stress free as possible! Thank you Apple Blossom Events!

Thank you Cathy and Emily for making Anne's and Mike's wedding a specialro day. From the flowers, to the decorating, to bringing calm to a chaotic experience, to the clean up, you went above and beyond. You made the day so much easier, and it was very much appreciated. And the flowers and decorations were beautiful. I recommend this business highly.

Look no further! You have found on the most caring, genuine, and talented florists! Cathy and her crew at Apple Blossoms went above and beyond with our flowers, tuxes, center pieces, and our overall vision! Starting with the flowers, Cathy genuinely wants to hear what you want for your vision. From there she takes your request and her expertise to create a gorgeous end product. For the tuxes, my now husband, our fathers, and our groomsmen looked so fabulous and handsome on our big day because of the help of all of the ladies at AB. With any errors made in the last try on, the crew was able to send out and request for the correct size just in time for our wedding. Cathy also set-up our entire venue from the ceremony to the reception. At the end of the wedding, she also came back to tear down everything. Cathy focuses on the little details, which in the end, made my entire wedding day. I'm sad to see my wedding day come and go because I have truly enjoyed working with Cathy and her team and will miss them all! Thanks for making our wedding day everything we ever imagined and more!

Cathy and her crew did above and beyond a wonderful job. We also paid them to set up and take down everything, worth every cent. The place was so beautiful it looked magical, there were so many compliments from the guests as well, just shows how much they cared about everything. Cathy was very nice to work with.

Apple Blossom Events was the best decision I could have made while planning my wedding! They went above and beyond my expectations, they really took control and took a lot of stress off of me, my now husbond and our family and friends. They are so talented, I feel so lucky that I was able to work with them on my wedding!

Cathy at Apple Blossom was fantastic to work with! My husband and I lived out of state when we were planning our Wisconsin wedding, and Cathy was very flexible with our schedules when setting up meetings which we really appreciated. She was also conscious of our budget, but did her best to make sure that our bouquets and centerpieces were exactly what we wanted. Apple Blossom also did the setup at our reception site, which was one less thing for us to worry about on our wedding day. I cannot say enough great things about Cathy and Apple Blossom!

Thanks to Apple Blossom, and Cathy and her amazing knowledge, professionalism, and guidance, our wedding and reception turned out even more beautiful than I could have ever dreamed! I had no clue what I was doing, and Cathy walked me through ever step of the way! I didn't have to worry about anything! She went above and beyond, and I gained a wonderful friend as well! Thank you Cathy, and Apple Blossom, for making the most wonderful day of my life even better than I hoped it would be!

Cathy and her team were one of the easiest vendors to work with at our wedding! She was always looking for ideas to respect our budget but always going the extra mile to make us feel like a million bucks! We were so lucky to work with her! Our flowers and decor were absolutely beautiful! I have recommended her to future brides all the time!

Working with Apple Blossom was a wonderful experience! Cathy was extremely friendly and willing to coordinate the use of personal family heirlooms along with her own rental decor to make it a personal experience. She knew budget was a concern and was very thoughtful to work with my daughter in law and son to make sure it was adhered too. Cathy and her staff personally came on site to set up the ceremony and reception area decorations which far exceeded our expectations! Her ability to put you at ease with confidence and allow you to enjoy the day was perfect! A huge thank you to Cathy and Apple Blossom staff!

Cathy and Apple Blossom was the best florist we could ever have asked for! She was very accommodating to our needs and flexible throughout my wedding planning process. She helped achieve everything I envisioned in terms of flowers - the bouquets, centerpieces, and boutonnieres all turned out perfect - better than anything I found on pinterest! In addition, she helped created a beautiful curtain wall of lights that turned our barn into a dream venue. I would definitely recommend her to any bride in the area!

Cathy and her team at Apple Blossom Events are amazing! She was able to make my vague vision (a few photos and a color scheme) a reality and our bouquets and centerpieces turned out beautifully! Cathy also did a great job of collaborating with me and staying within my budget. She was always up-front about cost and we made it work! Not only did they provide the flowers, they also set up and decorated. When I walked in to check on everything, it was perfect - I didn't have to touch a thing! I highly recommend them, you won't be disappointed.

Gorgeous blooms and decor! Cathy was so easy to work with; she took our budget and gave us the best value with the most beautiful bouquets, corsages, boutonnieres, reception centerpieces, ceremony flowers, and lovely linens for our wedding. Cathy and her team took our vision and brought it to life exactly the way we wanted for the price we needed. She decorated our space perfectly from the ceiling draping, chair and table covers, head table skirting and swagging, cake table skirting and lighting, and filling our vases with gorgeous flowers that brought it all together. Cathy has great ideas and tips to create a beautiful space and she truly cares about you as a couple and making your wedding day perfection. So pleased with Cathy's work and professionalism throughout our whole planning process and during our wedding day. Would recommend Apple Blossom Floral and Events to anyone!

STOP SEARCHING FOR THE PERFECT FLORIST/DECORATING COMPANY....BECAUSE YOU HAVE FOUND IT!! Save yourself the stress and book your wedding with Apple Blossom!

Our flowers were beautiful and amazing! And they lasted for a week after the wedding! They also did our set up before the reception and the clean up afterwards. These two services allowed both myself and my new husband to just relax and not be concerned about anything on our day! I would totally recommend them to anyone, Cathy (the owner) is so easy to work with and takes every idea and/or concern to heart. She also provided bar tenders - and they did a wonderful job! We were very impressed at the final invoice for the services and the flowers - what a great value!!

Apple Blossom Floral not only did all the flower arrangements for our wedding but they did all the decorating as well. They turned our dirty old pole shed on my parent's farm into a beautiful reception hall. They took my vision of a vintage country wedding and turned it into a reality. All the bouquets and other flower arrangements were all custom designed and were more beautiful than I could have imagined. They were easy to work with and are very skilled in making every detail work together to make a beautiful and cohesive whole.

Cathy did an absolutely wonderful job with my wedding! I had several guests compliment on the flowers. She is very creative and created the floral arrangements of my dreams. Cathy also did a great job helping my husband and I plan everything from flower decor to reception decorating to cake displays. She definitely has experience and was able to tie everything together, even with the last minute changes. I would definitely recommend Apple Blossom Floral to future brides....Cathy is amazing!

I truly cannot express how amazing Cathy & Emily were for our wedding. Here are the list of services they provided for our wedding:
Flowers (Bouquets, Boutonnieres, Corsages, and Centerpiece florals): They were absolutely breathtaking -- quite honestly, they were better than I was expecting!
Fabric/Lighting decor in our Barn Venue (Croix-View Farm): Gorgeous! And finished before we arrived the day before to set up
Linens: They provided even more than we needed, so we never worried about not having enough to fill "extra" tables
Day before setup service: When I was running late to the ceremony while supervising setup, Cathy and Emily took over sent me on my way, and assured me all of the details would be taken care of. I was more than pleased to see everything turn out even better than imagined the day of my wedding.
Day of Coordination: They were there from before i showed up with the bridal party to after we left at the bitter end. They helped to facilitate things I never thought of, and NEVER approached me for decisions or made me feel stressed. They truly were a factor in making my day blissful.
Tear Down: All my family had to do was show up and load up our vehicles -- everything was packaged and placed perfectly together so we didn't have to stress after the wedding, or the morning after.
Lastly, pricing was very affordable -- I can't recommend them enough!!!!! Thank you!
