It is funny how you can drive by a place a million times and never notice it until one day you just…read moreread the sign, discovering something brand new to you. I drive up Lomas past the Garden Center all the time but I only recently read the sign and decided to look up what it was. Behind all the trees, there is a little Albuquerque gem. I looked up their website and read all about a plant sale they had going on. I got two cute little plants and was excited to see the space. The actual gardens were closed when I went but I want to go back to check them out. I would also definitely go back for another plant sale, the prices were great and they had some fun stuff to choose from. One note, the parking is terrible when they are super busy. I doubt that they are super busy too often, probably only for events and such but when it is, getting in and out is a huge pain.

My husband and I had our wedding here last year. It was reasonably priced and had a ballroom as…read morewell as a smaller room where you could get ready. There are some rules like no bubbles or confetti, but they are all outlined in contract. We had employees there to supervise and help out. Because it was early April and the gardens don't open till mid April we couldn't have the ceremony in the gardens. It turned out to be less expensive. But when it came time for taking pictures, the staff let us and some of our guests take photos in the garden. The gardens are beautiful and well maintained. They made for a beautiful backdrop for our photos. Although it was not open on the weekends, there is a garden shop that sells fun garden themed items. There is a small courtyard in the front which also makes for good pictures. What's interesting is that the building itself doesn't look that special as I would drive past it every day and wouldn't have known about it if wasn't for the sign. It's a great hidden gem in the middle of Albuquerque and was a very nice venue to have a wedding.

Several of the flowers were already dried out, and others were clearly dying or completely dead when they arrived. It honestly looked like they used old inventory instead of fresh flowers. What made the experience even worse was the customer service. I called to speak with the manager, hoping they would try to make things right, but they seemed completely uninterested and brushed off my concerns. I would not recommend this flower shop if you expect quality or decent customer service. There are plenty of other local businesses that actually care about their customers and the products they deliver.

I got married just about a week ago, and I could not be happier with Aspire Floral. During my planning process, I reached out to several of the popular wedding florists in town...the customer service was mediocre and the price points were high. I came across Aspire in a local wedding magazine, and not only were they easy to work with, but their price points were fair. I set up an initial meeting with Alex. We walked through my Pinterest inspiration boards--of course--then he brought out some sample flowers for me to take a look at. From that one meeting, Alex knew exactly what to do. On the day of the event, the flowers showed up right on time and they were beautiful...exactly how I envisioned them in my head! Thank you, Aspire Floral!!
