I'm Alison Rios McCrone, an experienced entrepreneur with a track record of scaling various businesses, including startups. About 13 years ago, my husband and I took on the challenge of transforming a country house into a wedding venue.

It's been quite a journey – not just about bricks and mortar, but about infusing a tired space with life and turning it into a canvas for love stories and lasting memories. Check out our website at Altskeith Country House.

For wedding planning dilemmas check out my regular column in the Metro.

I will launch our wedding planning guide for all newly engaged couples in December 2024.

Sign up for the newsletter below to be the first to hear about the launch.

I'm thrilled to have you join me on this journey!

Alison
