I cannot speak highly enough about Mary at Always-n-Bloom!!! I will be first to admit that I was a picky bride… I had a small wedding, so the few details I did have I wanted to be exactly what I wanted. Well, that was my first problem. I didn’t know exactly what I wanted. So I took to the wonders of Pinterest and found arrangements that I felt fit my taste very well. Except maybe change a thing here and a thing there. Agh! I could not make up my mind. I took my examples to Mary and told her about my vision for my wedding day. She told me about each flower in my pictures and which flowers had colors like I was looking for. She was even able to «paint» flowers to get them to my desired colors! I didn’t know this was possible! She was very up front in price and never once tried to talk me into getting something more expensive. She was super reasonable and easy to work with. In fact, I started off with a few certain flowers for everything. I thought it was settled and all figured out! About a month before the wedding, though, I got second thoughts and changed practically every flower I’d originally talked about. Mary wasn’t bothered in the least! She simply changed my order up and that was that! I was able to pay about 2 weeks in advance. I had only two concerns in the beginning, which proved to be very minor after all was said and done. 1) Some of our initial invoice drafts lacked items which we had just made note of in her shop, but with a quick phone call we got these details straightened out in no time. 2) She didn’t have any pictures to show of her work! She was able to email me a few from another computer after our visit, but I just thought it was so strange to be in business for so long and not have photos to show of her work. When it all came down to it, I listened to my family who had seen her work and I booked her. Let me tell you, she did NOT disappoint!!! She kept my examples in mind, but added in my vision and taste to each of those. I absolutely loved my wedding flowers! I’m sharing some of our beautiful flower arrangements here. She did our altar arrangement, bouquets, corsages, boutonnieres, and cake flowers.

We used Mary F. For our wedding needs, and she was wonderful! She produces beautiful results for a reasonable price, allows you to «borrow» and rent(to save money), and even gives you tips on how to make it beautiful while spending less money. I can’t say enough great things about AIB and Mary! Thank you!
