My husband and I were just married and we contracted Alisha as our florist and we're absolutely thrilled with her work! Alisha had wonderful suggestions and has a beautiful vision she brings to life. She worked within our budget and helped make our wedding day absolutely magical. She was timely with her responses and gave us plenty of guidance when we were unsure. Her flowers and armaments are absolutely stunning. Please don't hesitate if you're. future bride and reach out to her! You won't be disappointed and I said throughout our whole vendor journey she was by far one of the easiest vendors we worked with. Thank you, Alisha! read more

My only brother got married a few days ago on the east coast, and I was so sad that I couldn't attend due to the pandemic. I live on the west coast, so I had to get creative about showing up to the wedding somehow. I decided to "be there" in flowers and offered to make floral arrangements for my brother and his bride. I found Alisha Simone Elegant Event Flowers & Decor. I was excited to support this amazing Black-owned business. I called many florists in Collingswood, and Alisha Simone was the most thoughtful florist I spoke to on the phone. Very kind and professional. She listened and connected with me on a human level, empathizing with my inability to attend my brother's wedding. She was hopeful that she could support me and make the flowers a special offering, a token of my love. Alisha Simone certainly delivered, and I've been singing her praises ever since. To be safe during COVID-19, the wedding was small. I explained to Alisha that it was a party of 8 people including the bride and groom, the parents, the maid of honor, and best man. Alisha worked with me on figuring out the best flowers for each person involved and sent me a portfolio of sample arrangements for the bouquets as well as boutonnières. I could tell that it was going to be special working with her, because she had asked me what the bride's dress looked like, how tall my brother was, his build, their heights, etc. She explained that she tries to tailor the floral arrangements to match the same style and mood of the bride and groom. Her attention to detail meant the world to me. The bride wanted a mostly blue bouquet with white flowers, she had mentioned hydrangeas but was also open to any soft blue flower. I really wanted to make sure the bride would be happy with her bouquet. Alisha was brilliant, she recommended delphinium. But I was worried that it wasn't going to be enough blue for the bride if we just used delphinium. I had heard that hydrangeas wilt faster, but Alisha worked hard to accommodate the bride's wishes. She also affirmed the need to add hydrangeas to provide texture. So she said that she could put hydrangeas in small water tubes so they could stay fresh in the bouquet throughout the day. She assured me that nothing would spill if she set the bouquet down. As you can see, the bridal bouquet consisted of white roses, delphinium, some hydrangeas, and some greenery. On the day of her wedding, the bride was so happy! She felt that the bouquet was perfect. Alisha really listened to the bride's needs and my concerns. The groom's boutonnière had a wonderful soft blue accent to match the bridal bouquet, while the rest of the party had uniform white roses with some greenery. The bride had asked for the mothers to have corsages, but we went with petite bouquets instead when Alisha mentioned that the corsages might die faster and become a nest of dead flowers without the stems to dip in water. This was a really good point. Alisha kept in mind that the weather would be hot, and if the wedding party was going to be in three different locations (ballroom, church, house) then it might be better for the mothers to have petite bouquets. That way, she said, they could put them in water throughout the day and then take home their bouquets to enjoy them longer. I loved this suggestion so much. This shows just how thoughtful Alisha is as a florist. Alisha Simone is a florist that you can trust. She has my highest recommendation, and I would definitely work with her again. You will feel cared for as you plan your wedding. If you're long distance (like me) and you'd like to deliver flowers in Collingswood or the greater Philadelphia area, you will appreciate Alisha's clear communication. We were in touch by phone and email. The payment process was easy. Anyways, I wish I could've been at the wedding in person. But it was such an honor to celebrate my brother and new sister-in-law through the flowers that they held/wore on their special day. Thank you, Alisha. We're all so grateful for you, and we wish you tremendous success. I hope you thrive! read more

Alisha Simone is incredibly talented! I LOVED my bouquet, my bridesmaids' bouquets, the boutonnieres, and the centerpieces that she created for us. She's super sweet and easy to work with. She takes into consideration your request and then will walk you through execution. She does not try to rip anyone off. Her prices are affordable. Highly recommend Alisha Simone! She's great! read more

Alisha was so amazing to work with for my September wedding! I had a very specific vision and she was able to pull it off flawlessly. My theme mostly consisted of greenery around my birch arch (provided by Alisha) and in my centerpieces surrounding lanterns. She also created the most beautiful swags for my sweetheart table and escort tables! My bouquet along with the bridesmaids was amazing and exactly what I wanted! My husband also had a unique request. He wanted his boutonnieres to look "different". My husband enjoys hunting, so we found boutonnieres inside shotgun shells on Pinterest. Alisha did a wonderful job recreating these for all of the men in my bridal party! They were such a hit! Alisha was very responsive to all emails and phone calls. Definitely recommended her to multiple friends during their wedding planning process! read more

Alisha provided flowers and decor for my wedding ceremony and reception for October 3, 2015. I cannot express enough how incredibly happy I was with her services. Alisha was extremely professional, worked within my budget and executed the dream wedding that I had been envisioning. She truly brought my vision to life for my ivory and pink ombre-themed wedding. Everything from the aisle runner with the pink ombre rose petals, to my bouquet, to the floral centerpieces and sweetheart table was IMPECCABLE and I could not have asked for anything more. Alisha was also very personable and so much fun to work with. She answered all of my emails (and I sent a lot, lol) in a timely fashion and never seemed annoyed whenever I tried to contact her. Alisha is so passionate in what she does and it definitely shows in all of her work. I would recommend Alisha Simone to everyone I know! Thank you again, Alisha! :-) -Gina Lerario read more

Aisha was great to work with for my daughters wedding. I was referred to her by the Merion Caterers and I was really not sure what I wanted for the ceremony, reception bridal bouquet and bouquets for 10 bridesmaids. Alisha was very knowledgeable and patient while she helped my through the process. Her work is absolutely amazing! I gave her a budget and was quoted a price just under budget. I even made a change in number of center pieces and received a refund check within days. If you want top notch work, fair price and great service use Alisha! read more

Alisha Simone was recommended to us by our wedding venue. I submitted a request for information and she contacted me within 24 hours to discuss our floral needs. She was very professional, fun, and easy to talk to. She knew exactly what I wanted just by describing what I liked and did not like. My bouquet, bridesmaids bouquets, and groomsmen's boutonnieres came out perfectly. I could not have asked for a better experience nor more beautiful flowers. THANK YOU ALISHA! read more

I had the opportunity to work with Alisha for about a year or so in planning the design of my wedding. I found her to be pretty patient, responsive(except for during her peak times but I understood that), understanding, and accommodating. I am one of those Bride's that was very particular about what I wanted! Keeping this in mind she remained patient with me throughout the planning process, even with numerous changes I requested, and she helped me to stay within my budget, which I really appreciated!!!! She helped me to regain focus and added her valuable input when necessary. I must say overall, I was very pleased with the outcome of my event! The decor was AMAZING!!! It was very beautiful. There were some hang-up's, such as my bouquet, I didn't completely love it! I had one thing in mind but didn't quite get what I was expecting on wedding day but it was a pretty bouquet, nonetheless. There also were a couple of things I noticed with the ceremony and reception decor that wasn't quite the way I contracted. Alisha created mock-ups of all of my centerpieces prior to the wedding day, which I think is a great idea because it ensures that both parties are on the same page and understand what's wanted/expected. The materials used in the mock-up's were exactly what I wanted. However, on wedding day the same materials were not used. The Overall look and feel of the decor did come together nicely. Thanks again Alisha ! Wedding: 09/08/2013 read more

What can I say Alisha is the most pleasant woman to deal with! From the begging it was all confusion on my part and lots of people (my bridal party) involved in the flower process. Alisha always stood so professional even though we were so scattered. Andres and I just want to say a huge huge thank you for our wedding flowers, the detail, quality and creativity blew us away and was everything I had dreamt of and more. From my amazing bouquet, to the table centerpieces and those magnificent ceremony pieces everyone was stunned and delighted which was exactly the desired effect. Friends described it as a rustic dream. I had minor hiccups with my mom not ordering rose petals for the aisle and last minute Alisha saved the day and brought them. Thanks for such a pleasant process too, from the initial briefing to the day, you were so easy to deal with. And I know we werent. Lol We hope the photos do it justice! .  Lots of love Mr & Mrs Estronza!!! read more

I have been ordering flowers from Alisha for about 2 years. I have lived in the area all my life and have had trouble finding a creative and talented florist to purchase arrangements for my mother for birthdays and mother's day. Alisha has been amazing. She is extremely talented and very easy to work with. She has exquisite taste and listens well to her clients to create exactly what is envisioned. My mother and myself are flower snobs and Alisha consistently comes up with modern unique arrangements using the best flowers. Most of the time we just let her creativity run free and we have never been disappointed. We recommend her to friends and others because we know they won't be let down by her arrangements. read more
