This place was so pretty and very easy to work with! Only thing was they have the ac set to a specific temp and it was a bit too hot the day of the wedding inside the dressing rooms and we had to wait until 3 pm for our POC person to arrive. The venue is not at fault as it was 90F in FEBRUARY. I would recommend this venue to anyone and everyone!! Best wedding ever!

We have only positive things to say about the Pines of Alvarado. There was ample parking. With the gazebo, two pergolas and multiple blooming plants, the approach to the building was very attractive. It was 99 degrees when we arrived at the venue, but the room was cool and comfortable. The catering kitchen worked well (our caterer loved it) and included a freezer, which was really nice since we served ice cream for our groom's treat. The kitchen also worked very well as our bar, with a convenient place to put a large frozen margarita machine. We loved having the ability to provide our own alcohol and appreciated the Pines providing the (required) security officers. We did put one row of pipe and drape up so bar goers didn't see the catering work going on behind the drape. The room was large enough to seat 130 guests for a dinner buffet - with adequate space to move about. There was also room for multiple "specialty" tables and a dance floor. There are giant barn doors that were perfect for entrance of the wedding party, as well as for the sparkler send off. A large window at the far end of the building let in ample natural lighting. The building was spotless every time we were there and they had ample tables, chairs, and cloths to meet our needs. The building is rustic in design, but became really pretty with minimal decorations - especially once the strings lights were turned on. Kylie was great to work with. She was flexible, responsive and attentive. Her knowledge and suggestions (when solicited) were invaluable. We are so glad we found the Pines of Alvarado. It was definitely worth the short drive from the metroplex.

Nothing But Love Weddings + Events is a bespoke wedding planner in McKinney, Texas - serving North Texas, and beyond. Here at NBL, it is our goal to make the planning process simple, and enjoyable, no matter where you are in your journey! When you join the NBL family, we gain more than a "client" - we become family! We will laugh with you, and we will cry with you. (But have no fear - we vow to be the fun aunt!)

We had the pleasure of working with Jacilyn for almost a year and a half on our wedding. When it finally came to the big day, everything came out perfectly. She was detailed through every step and helped organize things where it was easy for us to know what the next steps were. She was also so communicative with us when we texted her or scheduling calls when we needed to speak about something. My husband is a pilot so his schedule would make things difficult at times but she was always accommodating. On the wedding day, she was there every step of the way helping us decorate, keeping everything on schedule, and helping making sure we were given moments alone to ourselves to enjoy it as well. Her taste was impeccable with all the vendors she recommended and how she helped us set up our vision for decorations. We could not recommend anyone better than her as your planner as there is no one else who could be better. Nothing But Love absolutely describes how she handles every part of her business and made us feel that way as well.

Woodsy floral 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $750
  • Serves Alvarado, TX

Woodsy Floral started by accident believe it or not. Flowers have always been a part of my husband and I’s marriage. Every Friday or every other Friday my husband, Lonnie would go get fresh stems from the floral shop down the road from our house. With crazy looks he grabbed them. This turned into me making arrangements for our events. When some of our friends saw these floral arrangements, they asked if we could make more for their events. We had one friend that owns a wedding venue, she brought up becoming a vendor for her brides. Well after a little bit of pressuring from Lonnie, we attended her open house as a floral vendor and LOVED IT.

Awarded Best of Zola
Lonnie and the Woodsy Floral team were more than we could ever ask for. Easy to work with, able to find an option that fit our budget, and created exactly what I was imagining, even giving me a sneak peak the night before. Highly recommend them!

Tyler Freear as our photographer was so amazing. He was my favorite part of the day (besides marrying my husband). I would book him for any event. Tyler was timely, friendly, professional and work with our budget. He was fantastic in helping with all our need for our wedding. Tyler was great at communicating, reaching out before the wedding and making sure I was comfortable in taking photos. Tyler would also show me photos along the way to point out details and make sure it was what I wanted. Tyler was flexible and kind. He took picture of us holding a photo with my grandpa on the screen as he couldn't make it to the wedding. We also had a cousin show up with a camera taking pictures that didn't phase Tyler at all. He was awesome in letting all guest and us be ourselves. I can't wait to get our photos back.

She brought so much energy to our day, and was an absolute joy to hang out with all day. My husband, not one for all the details and photos, even had the best experience of his life with her.

We hired Emily for our engagement and wedding photos, and I couldn't be more happy. Her professionalism is unmatched, and she seamlessly fits in to address whatever problem arises. Groomsmen need corralled? There's a bustle crisis with your wedding dress? You need some reassurance on a stressful wedding day? Emily is there in a flash. She's also incredibly prompt with her communications and offers up ideas when you aren't quite sure what you want to do. I never worried about hearing back from her or getting what I needed. Beyond her professionalism, there is something special about the way she can capture people at their best; our candid photos from both the engagement session and wedding day are some of our favorites. She made two very awkward people feel completely at ease in front of a camera. Book On the Vine Photography for your next photo session--you won't regret it!

Shalonda was amazing. She was professional and kind, on time and the food presentation was amazing, despite it being a summer outdoor wedding (challenging needless to say!). The guests raved about the food and we couldn't recommend her more. Overall a lovely experience and we will use her again no questions asked if the occasion arises.
