Elena's Flowers on Murray Hill provided beautiful arrangements for my wedding day, and the quality of the flowers truly exceeded my expectations—absolutely stunning, and you can’t beat the price! However, the communication throughout the process left a bit to be desired. On the day of the wedding, the final delivery was missing the cake flowers and additional flowers for detail shots that we had discussed during our initial meeting. This was a little disappointing, as those small touches were important to us. Despite the hiccups, the overall beauty and value of Elena’s Flowers were fantastic, and I would still recommend them, especially for their gorgeous arrangements and affordability. Just make sure to double-check all the details closer to the event date.

Elena was a great choice for our wedding day florist. Her prices are extremely reasonable compared to some other vendors. She also came on the morning of our wedding to set up the arrangements for the ceremony and reception. She did an incredible job with our wedding ceremony arch as well. Everything was beautiful.

Elena truly went above and beyond to make our special day perfect. She delivered and set up everything beautifully at both our ceremony and reception sites, ensuring that every detail was just right. Our guests couldn't stop raving about how much they loved the flowers, which were crafted with such a unique touch. Her dedication and artistry shone through in every arrangement, and my partner and I were in awe of how wonderful they all looked. We couldn't have asked for a more talented and committed florist, and we highly recommend Elena's services to anyone looking to add a magical floral touch to their event.

Elena created beautiful arrangements - including a flower arch, bouquets, boutenirs, corsages, centerpieces, and more - for our wedding day! She showed up on time and worked super efficiently. Her flower arrangements helped create a soft and romantic aesthetic for our special day. I really struggled with picking a florist because you can’t see the “product”. She was super nice and accommodating leading up to the event - meeting with my mom and I and showing me different arrangements to help me pick what I wanted. She helped me feel at ease with my decisions and delivered beautifully day of. You also can’t beat the cost for the service she delivers!

Elena absolutely did fantastic job!!! Her flower arrangements were so beautiful, that we got compliments from so many of our guests. Her flowers entirely changed the ambiance of the room and made everything look very elegant. Bridal bouquet was exactly how I wanted. She decorated our arch outside so beautifully!!! We carried the arch in our reception hall, and put it behind our sweetheart table which framed everything nicely.
She is the best florist in town you can get for beautiful flowers with great pricing!!! Highly recommended!!!

Elenas flowers turned out beautiful/ she was very good price point. However, the process with her was very uneasy. She is very hard to reach/ is a bit unorganized. I was very detailed with time frame and she was three hours late to deliver. Which as a bride... was not what I needed the day of my wedding. Thankfully all were placed and finished at the church (thanks to my coordinator at the church).. but that time frame was not what I asked for/ nor ideal. Be aware.. prices are great but at what cost is it worth the stress on your wedding day.

We had problems with Elena from the start regarding communication, but I told myself it would be ok. I had to contact her every week for 2 months, including paying in full a month and a half early, to get sample photos sent to me for the bridesmaid bouquets. I know not all florists do samples, but I had specifically requested them at booking and was promised them because my grandma was doing my bouquet as a gift whereas I was ordering bridesmaid ones, and I wanted to make sure they would go together. When we finally did get sample pictures, it took a couple iterations and edits but we were able to get to a final sample we agreed on. The problem then came on the day of the wedding. Elena was supposed to arrive at 10 am with the flowers, 11 am came around and still no flowers. We tried calling and texting her for almost an hour, even had my coordinator on the line calling for a backup florist just in case, and nothing. When she finally did answer sometime after noon, the first thing she asked was what was the absolute latest she could show up. Considering we were starting first look and pictures at 1 PM and still had to finish the decor that she had, this was absolutely unacceptable. When the florist did finally arrive, she sent a driver instead of herself, we had to install our own arch flowers which my aunt had to put back together and add more flowers (the florist foam wasn’t wet, pieces were falling out) and we barely made it in time for pictures. On top of this, she sent multiple things wrong for the order. We were supposed to get a flower crown for the flower girl, got a small bouquet instead she could not carry with her basket and petals. I told her numerous times my grandma was making the bridal bouquet, and she still sent one. Our coordinator called her and read her the riot act for not showing up, and Elena promised a full refund. We still have not seen that refund after 2 weeks, and were told by her that she had 2 refunds that week due to “timing miscalculation”. If she completes the refund, I may consider adding a star. The flowers she sent bouquet wise weren’t awful, and they did eventually show up, but it was just completely unprofessional how it was handled and the flowers did need bolstered with flowers of our own. I was lucky I had an army of florist family able to make it work and our day turned out beautifully, but no bride deserves that stress on their wedding day. I think Elena is essentially a good florist with good taste who has potential to do amazing weddings, I really do, but unfortunately you REALLY have to hound her for communication and to make sure everything turns out right.

Elena did my flowers for my wedding in August of 2022. When we first met, she created a bouquet that was absolutely amazing and beautiful in every way. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we had to modify our order substantially and it was difficult to get in touch with Elena to share those changes. She has a business phone and personal phone and it was difficult to reach her and get a response especially with email. On the day of the wedding, the biggest problem was that upon putting on one of the mother’s corsages, it broke because it wasn't secured properly as the hot glue fell apart and the band was different. As well as we could not use two of the boutonnières because the ribbon fell apart and the flowers separated. We also had to go get pins for the remaining ones as the magnets she used did not stay on the suits for the guys. The last thing was that the bridal bouquet was different then when she first created it during our consultation but I think that’s because a lot of the flowers weren’t in bloom. Overall, Elena offered me a refund for the damaged flowers and she has been very kind and professional. If you decide to book with her, I would definitely do it but patience will need to be your strong suit! She has amazing prices especially for someone who isn’t a huge flower person and I was extremely happy overall minus the small hiccups. I received several compliments on my bouquet and Bridesmaids bouquets!

I used Elena as my florist for my wedding in June. My flowers could not have been more beautiful. She accommodated a couple of last-minute requests from me (the lily), and nailed it. And she was very affordable. I am very happy with my choice in florist for my wedding.

Elena did beautiful work for our wedding for flowers, centerpieces, and wedding arch. We had two brides and therefore two bridal bouquets, and she did a wonderful job of making them match without being identical. We were able to rent the wedding arch and tall centerpieces from Elena directly, and they were both BEAUTIFUL. She was flexible re: changes along the way, such as changing the number of centerpieces needed, adding bridal table décor, extra boutonnieres etc.
We knew the colors/vibe we wanted but didn’t know specific flowers or what’s seasonally available. Elena helped us clarify what we aesthetic we wanted and then closer to the wedding date helped us narrow down which specific flowers we did/didn't want to use. If you do have specifics you do or don't want, make sure to send those over. One thing specific we wanted was heavy flowers with little greenery, even though we wanted that wildflower vibe. I would recommend looking at many different bouquet/designs, the more references you have the better since there are so many options.
More than any other vendors, Elena was easy to schedule in-person meetings with throughout the process. I would recommend being in close contact in the few weeks leading up to the wedding to go over details on flower design plus setup details. That said, she won't chase you down, it is on you to keep her up to date on what you want/need. Elena was always happy to answer our questions or give us updates, but she's not a mind reader and doesn't know what you do or don't want to know.
I miss our wedding flowers already!

We were THRILLED with the flowers for our July 1st wedding! Elena met with us several times to ensure that our ceremony and reception flowers were perfect! We used the round arch for the ceremony and the selection of florals were fresh and large blooming with color! For the reception, Elena decorated each table with a selection of high and low centerpieces that included candles, creating a romantic and elegant atmosphere! Elena's flowers were affordable and also luxurious!

It was such a pleasure working with Elena! Our wedding flowers were absolutely stunning and were what we had envisioned and discussed with Elena. Her pricing was very cost effective and her passion shines through her work. At times, it was hard to reach her, but we were able to communicate and get everything organized. Overall, I would definitely recommend Elena!

No words can describe how incredible Elena is! Not only was she flexible and knowledgeable on countless flower types… she truly brought my flower dreams to life! I was very specific about what I wanted and she was so helpful along the way. My arch installation, tall aisle vases, bouquets, sweetheart table scape- all of it blew me away! I was so anxious to find a florist who would bring my vision to life and set up without any issues. Elena did just that! It was so easy to work with her and she exceeded my expectations. I would recommend Elena’s Bridal Flowers to anyone and everyone. You will not be disappointed.

I hired Elena for my wedding which was last month (5/20/2022). I am not one to write reviews, but if you choose this florist be aware that she will be difficult to contact and your florals are not guaranteed to match the ones discussed in your consultation. I went a whole month (2 months before my wedding) were I was unable to reach Elena and was contemplating the need to DIY all my florals. I gave a theme and color at our consultation and the day before the wedding was shown pictures of the flowers (already ordered) and they were not what we had previously discussed. I asked that one particular flower not be used in any of my centerpieces (it wasn't even bloomed and looked like a weed), and was reassured by Elena that it would be no problem. I arrive at the reception to see that exact flower in all of my centerpieces. I am willing to forgive a common mistake, but the day before the wedding when we discussed on the phone what flowers were to be used and she ignores my request, that is where I have a problem.
Please don't make the same mistake I did and hire a more organized and professional florist.

My wife and I were amazed with Elena's work. Planning for our wedding began during the pandemic and Elena was able to meet with us virtually and sent pictures of some great samples. We were able to meet and she seemed very passionate and knowledgeable. We shared some examples and our color scheme and she was able to nail down exactly what we wanted. We received many compliments on the bouquets, boutineers, corsages, centerpieces and pew pieces she made for us. I would recommend Elena for anyone looking for an amazing florist.

Elena was amazing!! She's a newer florist and doesn't have a storefront so came to my house to talk about options with her portfolio. We came up with a great plan and her prices were actually really low, my whole wedding with 4 bridesmaids and a big brutal bouquet and corsages and boutonierres and centerpieces was less than a thousand. We had to revamp because of covid though. My bouquet was AMAZING. I was stunned by it. And my cake lady says they were the most beautiful cake flowers she'd ever seen. I was so happy with them and will definitely be using Elena again for our big party in September!
