Flower child wedding review:
Our weddings was the highlight of our year!
When I first met Ash (a.k.a. Ashley, a.k.a. Flower Child) she made me feel welcomed and connected. Hones...tly, she made me feel like I made a friend.
Refreshments sat at the front of the console table where my fiancé and I would be sitting, no doubt thoughtfully placed there by Ashley to counter the humidly of summer in Georgia.
Small talk led to big talk, which led us into a fast friendship. The next thing we knew we were discussing the venue and vendors. What was once an overwhelming endeavor, with Ash’s extensive knowledge of the vendors on (and off) our list, we trimmed our choices until we had the match that fit our style.
Ashley explained that her Flower Child Weddings could be directed by herself for a small fee. The way she supported us from the moment we’d arrived, we knew we were in the right hands.
August 2021 was fast approaching.
But as anticipation of the big day grew, and the excitement of seeing our friends and family for this special occasion had finally come, COVID struck—3 days before the special day.
It was like an arrow through our hearts.
Like so many others our wedding had to be postponed (until the next year, August 2022). When we called Ash to tell the news, she took care of everything: she called the vendors to let them know, offered us guidance how we should handle the grief. Heck, I have a feeling she would have called our family members if we had asked.
We postponed for a year.
Finally when the day had come. With Ashley conducting the event, positioning the vendors, directing the guests (even us, as I—the husband,—had forgotten the schedule for a third time). There was never a dull moment, and we could tell everyone was having a great time.
As the night wound down, we reminisced on the day she had brought us. Not only will August 11, 2022 always hold a special place in our hearts. So will Ashley, for making it a reality.
