What people are saying.

  • I loved working with Gayle for my wedding. Her arrangements and style are truly unmatched and certain to leave your guests in awe. Our friends still talk about how beautiful our wedding was almost 3 years later. We had our ceremony and reception in two different locations that had a few moving parts + difficult logistics. Even with that, Gayles team executed on time and above expectations. I love looking back at our photos and reliving how beautiful the florals were. I just wish I could have taken them all home!

  • We utilized Florist Fire for a 3-day wedding weekend of festivities and her creativity and event design did not disappoint! From the furniture, to the design, to the florals, everything was thoughtfully and meticulously coordinated to each theme. She is an incredibly hard worker and very collaborative in her process, which was wonderful for me as someone who cares deeply about design. I highly recommend her team for your event design needs from small to big!

  • Working with FFDH was amazing from the start. Gayle heard my vision, used my example inspiration, and elevated it to beyond my imagination. Our floral mandap was stunning, vibrant and the center of the whole day. Seeing it when I first walked into our venue brought tears to my eyes as I saw all of our work and planning realized. It continues to be one of our favorite parts of our wedding, and it is a highlight from our guests and in our wedding photos.

  • Gayle and her team were able to translate our vision of a pared back beachfront wedding seamlessly. We opted for a Wabi Sabi inspired approach—where the floral arrangements closest to the beach blended effortlessly with the encroaching dunes. Additionally, she was able to design our ceremony pieces to be versatile enough to be re-purposed for the reception held in the same location—truly magical.

  • From our very first meeting, I knew Gayle was going to be one of my favorite wedding vendors to work with. She was easy to talk to, accommodating and her passion for creating beautiful florals was evident through our conversation. Once we discussed my vision, I completely trusted her and her amazing team to bring it to life on my wedding day. After doing the mockup a few weeks out from our wedding date and talking through everything planned for the day, I was even more eager to see it all pulled together! The florals at our ceremony and reception venues were nothing short of incredible and truly made the environment of our wedding day so special. It was everything I envisioned and more and I have Gayle and the Florist Fire team to thank for that! Thank you so so SO much to Gayle and the Florist Fire team for making my wedding floral dreams come true!

  • Where do I begin? Gayle is truly a magnificent artist and human being. Gayle worked on our baby shower celebration and put together the most exquisite arrangements. Every arrangement was impeccable and had many beautiful variations of flowers that truly made them crafted to perfection. I gave her our colors and inspiration and her work truly blew me away! Our baby shower wouldn't have been as beautiful without her masterful work. On top of that, she truly is an extraordinary person and someone I truly love and admire. Her deep care for her clients extends beyond and above many other vendors. She is one of the best, if not the best Florist in Tampa and hiring her will be the best decision you'll make! Thank you Gayle for everything! We love you!

Gayle is so incredibly creative, talented and energetic. She listened carefully to our initial thoughts and translated these into a beautifully coordinated vision. She brought our Black, White and Acrylic dreams to life! It was truly a pleasure working with Gayle, as she developed her plan by offering us both practical and comprehensive options. She gave us realistic timeframes for selections, so we never felt rushed. And she was a problem-solver extraordinaire. Any time we encountered a small glitch, she was able to come up with an even more stunning solution! This gave us much comfort throughout the process, that everything would turn out to be magical. She was extremely kind and patient with us. Overall, she exceeded our every expectation! We wouldn’t hesitate to work with Gayle at Florist Fire again in the future! She is a true professional!
