Tampa Florist Suggestions?

planetkari

I'm getting married next June and I'm searching for a reasonably priced but GOOD florist in Tampa.  I've heard that Fishhawk Florist is great, but their shop seems so far away from where I live. Do you have any other suggestions or shops to stay away from?

I am using Northside Florist. Kathy is great and gave us a great price. She has wonderful reviews on weddingwire and my work has used her for flowers as well.

I'm using fishhawk! I LOVE Stephanie. Plus, she'll meet you halfway for a meeting and her travel and set-up fees are very, very reasonable. Her prices are spectacular.

Dana Dineen was big on the board back when I was planning my wedding.

I am using The Arrangement Florist. Louis is fantastic and willing to work with any budget. There is no doubt in my mind that my flowers are going to be beautiful!!!

I like Irene at forbetterforless.com.  She did the Rusty Pelican open house a couple of weeks ago and her table was absolutely gorgeous!

I am using The Bride's Bouquet and Debbie and her team are amazing!! The best thing is that I got to see my centerpieces so I can approve it before the big day. I am not sure what you consider far but she is in Palm Harbor. I can't wait till the wedding day to see everything in place.

Stephanie from FishHawk gets my vote.  She is so nice and really makes the effort to understand your ideas.  I am a destination bride, so working with her has been really great in that regard too.  She worked WELL WITHIN our humble budget, too.  She offered to meet up in a place that was easy for me to get to when I visited the area this past spring.  I am about to have my final phone consultation with her and will find out if she is willing to meet up halfway for the return of her materials after the wedding.

Do NOT go with Dana Dineen.  She is unprofessional and spacy, her prices are astronimcal, and I had a really disappointing face-to-face experience with her.  She had nothing prepared for our scheduled meeting at her studio, answered other phone calls during the meeting, and left me to make my OWN mock-up centerpiece using materials I had said I specifically didn't want to use.  Wow.

I second Bre2Be
Scott with Apple Blossoms is amazing. He did our wedding in May. And I would have to say the flowers were one of my most favorite things about my wedding.
Plus he defitnitely works with you on price!!!!!
