BloomBridge is the brainchild of founder, Kristen Allen. Kristen has always had a love for people and flowers. She always made sure that her loved ones that had passed had flowers on their graves. “My late grandmother always said, “when it’s my time, don’t you let me be the only one out there without flowers.” I assured her I would not.” The convenience of that promise however became challenging and after much thought the idea of BloomBridge was born.
