Marina is the owner and operator of this consummate flower design business. I come from a family of florists, but Marina's taste and design skills were amazing! I had met with several well known florists but Marina had a refined artistic sensibility that stood out, and I knew after our first meeting I wanted her to do my wedding. Even though I had specific ideas in mind, she understood my vision immediately as I discussed my clippings with her. She is a sincere and lovely person and offered her creative suggestions generously. I'm a perfectionist but I knew I could trust her artistic sense! She delivered as requested and both my wedding and reception were more beautiful then I could have imagined! Most of our guests' (and my husband) complimented Contessa's stunning flowers for our fantastic day!

Marina -- you are absolutely phenomenal! I cannot express how beautiful your work was for our wedding. We could not have been happier with the flower arrangements you did for our wedding. And they lasted for 3 weeks afterwards! Thank you for helping make our wedding so wonderful. And thank you for all the meetings and support and flexibility. You were a true pleasure to work with and I am so glad to have met you. BEST FLORIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
