Megan S. Sent on 12/29/2020The absolute best!!!
I cannot say enough good things about Joy! I had to change my wedding 3 times through this pandemic and she has been so flexible and accommodating through it all. Joy is such a pleasure to work with (and beside, as a wedding vendor myself). Let her have full creativity and I PROMISE you will NOT be disappointed!!!! -

User2799249 Sent on 10/04/2016Joy and her team were an absolute dream to work with. I planned our intimate luncheon wedding of 80 people in two months and I was able to focus my attention on other details without having to worry about the florals. From our first consultation with Joy and her team, my mother and I knew that they are true artists and professionals that would be able to execute our ideas effortlessly, and they did! Joy is now my new go-to florist for any occasion! -

Joy (and her team) couldn't have done a better job for our "covid" wedding. We had multiple last minute changes that were unavoidable having a December 2020 wedding, and Joy really helped us to be at ease with everything that was going on with regards to covid rules/regulations/changes etc etc... Many of the usual suppliers and distributors have been short of stock due to covid, but Joy was an absolute ROCKSTAR managing all of the ordering and last minute updates (we had changes to our bridal party and attending guests literally the week of the wedding).
Joy helped us to pick out accent pieces and we received dozens of compliments on the flower arrangements from all of our guests and even those that couldn't attend.
We would happily recommend Joy for all of your flower and event needs!Elegant Designs by Joy's reply:

Melissa Sent on 02/08/2020WOW!!!!!!!!
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS! Two Weeks later, and they are still just as special! Joy made my vision come to life. I was back and forth with a few ideas for my wedding and Joy listened every step of the way. I’m point blank, blown away at how beautiful everything came out. When I look at my wedding photos so far, it’s my flowers I notice first! So many of my guests have called to compliment the quality of her work. I can’t be convinced there’s competition out there for this florist shop. It simply doesn’t compare! Thank you a million times over!Elegant Designs by Joy's reply:
So happy that we made your vision come to life, and you loved your flowers.. We alway tell couple's the flowers are a big part in your photo's and the main decor people notice, and you couldn't have explained it any better.. It was our pleasure to pull everything together for a magical winter wedding day! -

Charlotte Sent on 12/29/2019Stunning designs!
We had such an incredible experience with Elegant Designs by Joy! The flowers came out absolutely stunning! I live in NC so we had to plan everything via email and phone calls and did not meet until the day of the wedding. I sent Joy a few pictures of the color scheme I wanted and the final arrangements exceeded all of my expectations and I am STILL getting compliments from guests about the flowers. My husband and I got married outside in a gazebo which I wanted decorated. Joy added the flowers and accent greenery to the white draping (she worked with the company who did the draping) and the final product came out AMAZING. It was better than I could have ever imagined! Everyone wanted their pictures in front of the gazebo! I can't emphasize enough how pleased I am with everything Joy did to make our wedding day absolutely PERFECT. I highly recommend Elegant Designs by Joy - you are in the best hands!Elegant Designs by Joy's reply:
It was our pleasure to play a part in helping bring everything together for your wedding day. We thank you for giving us some creative freedom, and trusting us to bring your vision to life..
Much love & Happiness in the New Year and always,

Nikki Sent on 09/12/2019AMAZING from start to finish
Where do I even begin. Joy you were an absolute pleasure and everything you delivered was beyond. From the moment we stepped in her store, I knew her aesthetic was exactly what I was looking for. Our first meeting was like talking with an old friend. I gave her a few inspiration pictures and let her know my color palette of whites and greens. From there she was able to capture exactly what I envisioned and more. My bouquet was what I had alway dreamed it would be; Joy even sourced anemones (not even in season!) to add to my bouquet because she knew they were one of my favorite flowers. Everything else was just as perfect, from the centerpieces, the bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres, and even the daintiest flower girl crowns. I couldn't have asked for more. We are SO happy with everything. We would recommend Joy again and again and cannot wait to use her in the future for all of our events. THANK YOU JOY!!! -

Joy has a great personality, works with your budget, and truly listens to what you request. I had a certain vision for my flowers and explained exactly what I wanted, including how much I was willing to spend, and Joy was spot on with what she provided – the flowers were exactly what I asked for and I could not have been happier with them. We also had the ability to give a ton away after the wedding as favors, and take a bunch back to decorate our apartment for the week. Very happy with the Joy! -

Tanya S. Sent on 06/05/2019Joy is amazing!
Joy always creates gorgeous, unforgettable arrangements - but she really outdid herself for our small Brooklyn wedding this Memorial Day weekend. The most incredible, vibrant, and wild arrangements graced our tables, I had the most magnificent bouquet anyone had ever seen. I wanted some pampas grass in these wooden crates for our welcome table, and the arrangements Joy created in them were so gorgeous that everyone remarked about them - and we ended up toting them to our brunch the following day because we just couldn't get enough! Just an overall amazing job, and we couldn't recommend more highly or be more grateful. -

Joy is amazing!!!
Always a bridesmaid and never yet a bride, I knew exactly what I had wanted in a florist. I had the pleasure of having Joy create two previous bouquets for me as a bridesmaid, and I was head over heels for them. I never wanted to put them down- at the end of the night I ended up going back for both bouquets to save.
My mother and I met with Joy several months before my wedding and she had asked me to show her some pictures of what I had wanted. All I knew I wanted was astilbe, peonies and anemones. The rest was up to Joy. She and her team created the most GORGEOUS and intricate bouquet incorporating everything I had wanted and them some. Joy went above and beyond for me and made all my dreams come true. I HIGHLY recommend using Joy and her team. There is no other florist on Long Island that could create such jaw dropping floral arrangements. Also, a huge bonus, my mother and I were very happy to see that for all of the bouquets, centerpieces, boutonnières, and additional flowers, we were right on budget. Joy was such a pleasure to work with.
I had the flowers of my dreams and felt like a true queen. I plan on preserving this bouquet to look at for years to come.
Thank you Joy for everything!!Elegant Designs by Joy's reply:
Our Pleasure Nicole, Thank you for letting us take your inspirations & run with it... So happy we were able to hunt down peonies and surprise you with them. Our Best to you both, cant wait to see the rest of the pic's...

Kerry Sent on 11/18/2018It was pure JOY to work with Joy! :)
This amazing woman is located in Islip. Her store, to start, is so quaint and beautiful. When my mom and I met with Joy, we were amazed by her knowledge of all things flowers. Flowers were the one thing I had no clue about going in to this wedding process, and Joy assured me that she would take care of everything and make my vision come alive. She was so right. I personally believe she was reasonably priced, and threw in a few extras for us that truly made our decor come alive at Stonebridge. She understood the space, and made sure it all came together. I had emailed her a few times throughout the process due to concerns I had. She emailed me immediately. She has amazing customer service. She is beyond sweet and has an awesome team behind her.
I just got my bouquet back from Stonebridge (Tuesday after the wedding - I left them at the venue) after being married on a Friday. My flowers are still as beautiful as they were the day we got them. They have quality products and I am so grateful I found her to be my florist!
I just dropped off my bouquet to be preserved at "Don't Toss the Bouquet" in Patchogue. When I showed up to give my flowers in, Christa (from DTTB), immediately knew it was made by Joy. She was also shocked at how beautiful and alive they still looked after being out of water for 4 days! She continued to tell me about how the flowers she receives from brides who used Joy are by far her favorite flowers. It says a lot that another vendor (who has never met Joy, by the way) says such amazing things about a florist. I cannot wait to get my bouquet back from being preserved so I can relive my day for years to come.
Avoid using a big company. Support the local businesses around you. Go with Joy for your flower needs - she does amazing work and you will not regret it!!Elegant Designs by Joy's reply:
Thank you Kerry for such a nice review. We really do enjoy what we do & our couple's. Our biggest thing is being there, no matter the question, even when not flower related,. we are doing this for years, so if we can offer any help to make our couple's a little less stressed then were doing our job & having fun working with great brides like yourself. xoxo You'll Love your bouquet, Christina is awesome. -

Meghan Sent on 10/12/2018JOY IS THE BEST! I waited until a couple months before my wedding to book my florist because I didn't realize it needed to be done so far in advance but clearly waiting worked out in my favor. Joy had a cancellation and I was able to sneak in! She was amazing and went above and beyond what I thought flowers could be! She understood my idea of playful and colorful and ran wild. I gave Joy approx. 150 bud vases to fill and line the middle of my tables and she did not disappoint! My bouquet was AMAZING! The colors, choice of flowers and arrangement was impeccable. She is a true talent! The small touches on the boutonnieres and corsages made them pure beauties, especially the baby boutonniere for my ring bearer under 2! Choose Joy - you won't be disappointed!Elegant Designs by Joy's reply:
Meghan, What can I say ... We loved working with you. Sitting down & putting together idea's to pull together your visions & make your look your own. Our Best to you both. Joy & The Crew. -

Jesse Sent on 09/12/2018My husband and I recently got married, and I must say that Joy was AMAZING to work with. She had just as much fun and pride in putting our vision together as we did, and it came out PERFECT! Not only is she extraordinarily talented, she was so easy to work with and offered up so much insider advice for planning our wedding. We received so many compliments on our floral arrangements. An absolute must for any future LGBT weddings and events.
Elegant Designs by Joy's reply:
Jesse & Michael, We couldn't be more happy you had picked us be your floral design company. You both had a vision & let us bring it to life. We love being able to design in some many different styles, but the late summer weather couldn't have fit the tropical clean vibe any more.
You were both such a pleasure to work with. Our xoxo & best wishes for a lifetime of love, happiness & health. -

Mackenzie Sent on 06/18/2018Having come from a multi-generational family of florists, our family is very particular when it comes to floral arrangements. When everyone walked into our main reception and saw the beautiful work that Joy created they were all instantly impressed and floored with how extraordinary everything was. And rightfully so - Joy captured our special day and exceeded all expectations. More importantly, she respected our vision, but added her expertise and creativity to deliver something even more special. When we first saw her arrangements we started to tear up because it was that beautiful. Our parents corsages stood out as unique pieces of art, but the real centerpiece was the cascading bouquet. Joy created a stunning bouquet that everyone commented on and really shined in our photos. We can't say the word beautiful enough because that's exactly what Joy created. Beauty. Joy and her staff are absolute professionals and we can't recommend Elegant Designs by Joy enough. Her work speaks for itself, but she truly is in a league all to her own. Thank you so much Joy for making our wedding not only extra special, but extra beautiful. -
