Meta A. Ela draws on her background in education and art to shape her floral design approach. Inspired by her travels, she views each wedding as a chance to craft a one-of-a-kind floral experience that reflects the couple's story. Meta describes her signature style as "iconic, timeless, and romantic."

From the start, Meta was so personable and we could tell that she was the perfect choice as our wedding florist. As a bride, I had so many hopes and dreams for our wedding day. I showed Meta my inspiration and she reassured me that my dream would become a reality. She did not disappoint! At no point in the process did I doubt Meta and her ability to deliver the most beautiful dream bouquets and arrangements. We received so many compliments on the flowers and table presentation at our wedding. The birch arch at our ceremony was adorned in the most beautiful, tasteful way. We highly recommend Design Flower Fairy for any special event.

Meta was amazing choosing the beautiful flowers for our wedding day. From our first interaction meeting her, I knew she was the perfect person for us. She is so nice, thoughtful, and really took the time to get to know me and my personal floral style. I also loved supporting a small business because it made everything more personal and special. I recommend her to anyone who wants their wedding day to be seamless and fun.

Highly recommend for any event, large or small!

We used Design Flower Fairy for my son’s Baptism lunch. Meta created beautiful arrangements and took care of the drop off and set up while we were at the Baptism. She was super easy to work with and created exactly what we had envisioned.

From start to finish Meta was a dream to work with to bring our wedding decor dream to life!! We instantly connected on our first phone call and she was so helpful and was respectful of our wedding decor budget! Each centerpiece, arrangement for our venue, and bouquet were absolutely stunning, with personal touches! Meta took the time to understand our vision for our wedding and made us feel like we were the only wedding she was working on! She went out of her way to visit our church and meet with me to use personal items such as family vases, which she handled with extreme care and bouquet charms! Meta is incredible and we recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing florist and person to help them make their decor dreams come to life!

From the very beginning, Meta’s kindness and flexibility were evident. She listened attentively to our ideas and preferences, and her deep knowledge of floral arrangements allowed her to translate our vision into a stunning reality. Her ability to adapt and tailor her work to our unique needs was truly commendable.

Meta’s proactive and open-minded approach set her apart. She not only understood our desires but also offered creative suggestions to enhance our floral arrangements. Her creativity and expertise were invaluable in creating an atmosphere of natural elegance and beauty for our rehearsal, church ceremony, and reception.

One of Meta’s outstanding qualities was her ability to connect with the Ridgefield community. She was not only knowledgeable about the area, but also served as a wonderful connector, helping us secure the perfect church for our ceremony and introducing us to a local deli that provided excellent sandwiches for our guests. Her local insights enriched our wedding experience and made it truly memorable.

Moreover, Meta’s familiarity with our wedding venue was a game-changer. Her expertise in working with the venue ensured that the floral arrangements seamlessly complemented the surroundings, enhancing the overall ambiance.

We couldn’t be more grateful for her role in making our special day even more beautiful and memorable. We wholeheartedly recommend Meta to anyone seeking a dedicated and talented floral designer who goes above and beyond to bring your vision to life.
