ing, she was a joy to work with. She even let me know ahead of time when something didn’t arrive quite right, and did the absolute best job remedying the situation. I didn’t even bat an eyelash about the change!
Her floral work speaks for itself in the pictures, and we got so many compliments on the florals. My bouquet was everything I ever dreamed of! Elaina delivered flowers for pictures then came back to set up/take down our ceremony florals that we were repurposing. I cannot recommend her enough!

ring our initial consultation and when working with us to make sure we were able to stay within our budget. When we unfortunately had to push our date back 7 months due to COVID, Elaina did not charge us to change the date and let us move everything with ease. We were very thankful for that to say the least. When our big day approached, she was very thorough with our proposal to make sure we did not miss anything and that everything was exactly what we wanted. She could not have been any sweeter during the process, either. The day of our wedding, the centerpieces, bouquets, corsages, and boutonnieres were absolutely beautiful. We were very happy that we chose to work with Cotton & Magnolia!

absolutely incredible. She was flexible and helpful, and truly brought our vision to life! Elaina’s bouquets and arrangements are unique, gorgeous, and very fairly priced. We were blown away by her centerpieces, and loved that she had many modern decorative rental items which fit our aesthetic perfectly. Thank you again Cotton & Magnolia!
Elaina Scronce - Cotton & Magnolia - Florist and Event Planner
I don't even know where to start with Elaina. Working with her was an absolutely pleasure. When I spoke with her on ...
the phone, I knew instantly that I wanted to work with her. Her calm demeanor, expertise, and confidence was evident from our first phone call (the phenomenal southern accent was a bonus). Not only did she deliver some of the most beautiful bouquets and floral decor I have ever seen, she also organized my entire event. I did not worry about one single thing on my wedding day. She had everything planned out like a general going to battle! She worked expertly with all of our vendors, coordinated family like a champion, and made sure I focused on the important stuff at my wedding... marrying the love of my life. This only scratches the surface of what she has done for me and Andrew, but I wanted to give her a social media shoutout as soon as possible. BOOK HER! She is worth every penny!!!

I could rave forever about how absolutely gorgeous the flowers from Cotton & Magnolia were- they were actually one of my favorite parts of what was the best day EVER!
So gorgeous...
& unique, I am so regretting not having a plan to preserve my bouquet ahead of time! I heard great compliments all day about my bouquet, and there are comments on nearly every photo I shared about how stunning the bouquet was.
Each bridesmaid bouquet was also so beautiful & she also did several sets of flowers for our hair. My stylist was so appreciative of the way she even wrapped wire around the blooms for our hair- apparently no other florist she had ever worked with had done such a thing. She also did a little flower crown for my fairly particular flower girl, and it absolutely made her day! Elaina was fantastic to work with, and I was so pleased to be able to review some of my tastes ahead of time & then turn everything over to her. Everything was planned from out of town, over phone & email, but I never had any doubts she would be terrific. Out of all the great decisions we/I made planning our wedding, this was by far one of the very best. Recommend a hundred times over. THANK YOU!!!
Elaina is amazing! She’s so sweet and communicative and she answered sooo many questions I had when I kept going back and forth about what kinds of flowers I wanted to include. Ser...
iously, she’s a saint. I don’t know how I didn’t drive her crazy (well, I’m sure I did, but she didn’t show it, haha). I had reached out to several florists beforehand and some either didn’t answer or their prices were much higher. My flowers turned out gorgeous and Elaina added my ribbons and lockets to the flowers and they looked absolutely amazing. I highly recommend her!
Look no further for your wedding day florist! Elaina was a dream to work with. From the very start, she understood my vision. She was so respectful of my budget and very flexible w...
hen it came to new ideas. She went out of her way to meet with me in person several times to look at different vases, arrangements, and greenery options. She put so much attention to detail in everything she did. The sweetheart table was my absolute favorite part of the wedding decor, and that's all thanks to Elaina! I'm so happy I had the chance to work with her and couldn't recommend her enough!
From start to finish our experience with a Elaina was fantastic. We did a lot of research before choosing Cotton and Magnolia. The prices and services are absolutely the best in th...
e area! She worked with me as our vision for our wedding day evolved and delivered the most beautiful flowers! Would definitely recommend!
C & M did my flowers and day of coordination. She was awesome and really easy to work with. My flowers turned out beautiful and she kept everything on track during the big day.
