It was above and beyond what we expected, it was all so gorgeous all well done.

shaped assorted bottles for the displays, she created a unique arrangement that complimented and balanced with every piece. Every display was truly stunning so much so that several “wandered” off with guests by the end of the night.

Our experience working with Elianna of Auraete florals was second to none. Working within an incredibly limited time frame (we engaged her with less than a month before our wedding...
because our other florists flaked), Elianna truly captured our entire floral design vision based on one single telephone consultation in which she truly listened to us and asked smart questions. Moving forward, she was incredibly accessible, worked within our desired budget, and was thoughtful and efficient throughout the entire process. The very next day after our initial call, Elianna immediately got to work and kept us in the loop with all floral design related items and ideas that aligned with our floral inspiration. Elianna provided us with a detailed proposal so we could see exactly what she was planning to do and the costs associated with each piece.
The best part of working with Elianna was that she truly listened to what we had in mind and created a beautiful display that was warm and inviting to our guests from ceremony and cocktail hour to reception. And she is happy to work within any budget. We can not recommend her highly enough.
After seeing Elianna's beautiful arrangements over the last few years at a friend's wedding and (later) baby shower, my fiancee and I reached out to Aureate Florals as we were plan...
ning a Jack & Jill (mixed-gender) wedding shower in Port Washington. Working with Elianna was extremely easy and enjoyable. From our initial phone call and email exchanges of Pinterest ideas and other inspiration boards, Elianna crafted a set of table centerpieces and welcome table/gift table arrangements that were even more beautiful than we'd envisioned and which perfectly matched our color theme. Elianna was extremely flexible as our guest and table count fluctuated in the weeks leading up to our event. Everything was delivered to our venue by her staff and arranged with expert precision and an eye for detail. Finally, the pricing, especially for the tremendous beauty and quality that we received, were unmatched by other florists in the area. We will certainly continue to share her name with our friends and family, and will reach out to her again should we host another event on Long Island.
Elianna was absolutely amazing! She was extremely responsive and flexible through the whole entire process. We asked a million questions and changed so many things, but she was so ...
sweet through it all. We had a themed wedding with special centerpieces and she was super helpful in making sure we got what we wanted. Everything turned out better than we expected and we are so thankful for her work! Thanks again, Elianna!

r guidance when I was unsure of what I wanted was so helpful. You were right there whenever I needed you - including the day of the wedding. You didn’t stop until everything was perfect. You created such a beautiful ceremony room. It blew me away when I saw it. The bouquets and center pieces were so elegant. My guests were commenting on how much they loved them all night.
Thank you again. You will definitely be the first person I call when I host another event.

I worked with Elianna from Aureate Florals for my wedding the past weekend at 7/6/2019. Working with Elianna is wonderful, she really tailors her proposal and floral designs to you...
r needs and your wedding style also helps you stick to your budget. Her proposal is super thoughtful, detailed and yet easy to understand which helped me alot because I had no idea about wedding florals in the beginning. I sent her a few pinterest pictures and she was able to create such amazing arrangements. She is also calm, nice, very professional super accommodating and responsive. The day before out wedding we were not sure if the weather would hold up for our outdoor ceremony, Elianna's team even brought a back up arch! She really goes out of her way to make my wedding as wonderful and stress free as possible. All my guests complimented on our flowers and they even took the center pieces home! I highly recommend Aureate Florals for your wedding.
