Thank you for everything! The day was more than we could have hoped for! I have never seen bride enjoy her own wedding as much as Jenni did. I too enjoyed the day because I knew that you would take care of everything and you did! It was all perfect! Thank you so much for all the care you’ve shown us.

Jay, Sue, Jenni and Jodi...Evan too!
I just wanted to say THANK YOU for doing such a beautiful job on all the flowers, they looked so romantic. We received so many compliments. Alissa came up to me just before the wedding and asked if I had a chance to see all the centerpieces. I hadn't yet. She told me they were more than she could have ever asked for!
Thank you for helping to make Alissa and Jacob’s big day that much more special and being so supportive!

Armando has the vision to transform spaces and creates beauty in the most unexpected ways. I am continually amazed with his ability to shape any environment, through texture, light, color and form, into something breathtaking. His designs transport and evoke emotion-they seem to subtly whisper an inspired harmony.

You took our vision of simple, elegant and seasonal flowers and made it a reality far better than we expected! When we think back about the ambiance of our wedding day, we have you to thank for setting the tone. We knew what we wanted and you took that idea and created an environment that brought all the other wedding details together – the ceremony, the reception, our attire, the intimacy of the University Club, etc. Aside from that, you listened to what we wanted! Furthermore, we received many comments about how romantic, elegant and unique our floral arrangements were.
We are now expecting a baby in July! (See, your flowers really did add extra romance to our big day.)
With sincerest appreciation,
Christine and Grant Donesley
After Sept. 11th, we had to quickly change our wedding plans from a venue in Hawaii to Santa Barbara. We live on the East Coast and had no connections there. Armando/Alegria came highly recommended by the prestigious hotel where we were staying. Armando happily jumped on the task and quickly helped me create my very intimate second wedding (4 people). Our wedding and dinner was as magical as I had hoped...and then some. He excels at mastering those tiny, but enormously important details. From our exotic and elegant dining table, chairs and flower-laden canopy to rose petals on the bed and our candlelit bedroom suite, Armando and his team exceeded our expectations. I don't know what I would have done without Armando!

All of my encounters with Armando and his creativity have been happy moments. You make my job easy with your flexibility and my clients keep complimenting me on "my choice" of floral designer.... Flowers are such an important part of any wedding and my weddings look great thanks to you.

Not just another pretty floral arrangement… but rather, a statement of pure beauty and joy, to be celebrated, in everyday life.

Your flower arrangements are magnificent, unique and dramatic, and it is always thrilling to see what you will do next. Large bouquet or small, our clients and friends are always delighted, sometimes awestruck by your work. We hear them talking for weeks about this or that fabulous arrangement you have sent on my behalf. You make me look good, and the goodwill generated by your gorgeous flowers and gift baskets keeps on giving back to us, in terms of repeat business and referrals. Thank you for your wonderful creativity, your prompt and gracious service.
We are in your debt!

"Alegria created a reality from our desire for an elegant party with playful twists and experiences. Because of Alegria's thoroughness each source involved understood the desired ambiance and worked as a team. Planning the party with such a creative, professional "partner" made as much a special memory as the event, and it was wonderful."

"Where do I begin? There are no words to neither describe nor express my gratitude for the amazing job you did on our wedding. Thank you for the time and hard work you put into making our big day so magical. The flowers – from the bouquet to the cake to the centerpieces – were absolutely gorgeous and you took my desire for red roses and created a remarkable ambiance beyond anything I ever could have imagined. You completely transformed our ceremony and reception site, capturing exactly what I wanted while going above and beyond what I expected.
You were a delight to be with
and a dream to work with!
Thank you!
