    Pick Apple Blossoms!!

    I was looking for a florist and when we met Scott you could immediately tell he knew his stuff, and was passionate about his business. More importantly Scott has the nicest personality and really cares about his customers satisfaction. He made the process so easy, gave me suggestions on how to meet my budget, and worked with us to create this vision. I am so happy we went with Scott. He was quick to respond and even sent me pictures of my bouquet before he brought it over to make sure I loved it. Which I'm so happy he did because I realized (literally morning of) I wanted a smaller bouquet and he instantly changed it for me no questions asked. He was timely and got all the flowers where they needed to be. And They were gorgeous. He nailed it. Not only were the flowers healthy and vibrant looking but they were arranged so elegantly. We had guests take them home after the reception and there was not a single one left. My family took one after as well and we were shocked how they even lasted a few days after the wedding. All in all I am so happy we choose Apple Blossoms, I would recommend them in a heartbeat. Scott is the best, you wont be disappointed!

    Incredibly beautiful

    The flowers from Apple Blossoms Floral Designs were incredibly pretty and beautiful, truly exceeding my expectations. They were so stunning that my friends and staff were asking to take them home at the end of the party. The flowers also perfectly complemented my dress, tying the whole event’s aesthetic together seamlessly. For our rehearsal dinner party, they prepared very special floral arrangements in green and gold, which added an exquisite and elegant touch to the evening that felt royal, yet came at an affordable price. I highly recommend Apple Blossoms Floral Designs for anyone looking to add beauty and elegance to their events. Their craftsmanship and attention to detail are truly unmatched. Thank you, Scott and the team for adding such a special touch to my big day.

    Beautiful flowers

    Scott helped to create my vision, which was not the classic all white, or pale flowers. I wanted a lot of color including, red, green and purple. And I wanted the arrangements to be very full, but elegant and classic. They were all of that and more. My guests commented on how beautiful they were.

    Scott also did my chuppah. We wanted it with lots of greenery and white. It was stunning.

    Scott was very patient and extremely professional and I would definitely recommend him.

    Apple Blossoms Floral Designs's reply:

    Thank you so much Roberta. It was quite a pleasure working with you and Matt. We wish you many years of happiness. Thank for your lovely review.

    Would highly recommend Scott!

    We used Apple Blossoms as our wedding florist and would HIGHLY recommend. We had an in person meeting with Scott before deciding on a florist, and my husband and I were very impressed with Scott’s professionalism and expertise. He was one of the few florists we reached out to who suggested meeting in person. During the meeting, we showed inspiration photos to Scott. My husband and I know nothing about flowers, and Scott was able to understand exactly what we were looking for through the photo inspiration. Scott also worked with our budget and helped us find ways to reuse arrangements from our church ceremony at our reception to help with cost. Anything we asked for, Scott was able to meet our requests. Additionally, Scott is reliable and highly responsive. He always answered our inquiries timely and worked closely with our wedding planner. He dropped off and set up our flowers on time the day of our wedding. The flower arrangements Scott created were absolutely stunning. We were so happy with the result, and he created exactly what we were looking for and exactly what we had discussed in our meetings. We would highly recommend Scott!

    The Best Florist in Tampa!!

    Scott with Apple Blossoms is the BEST florist I have had the privilege to work with. He is kind, responsive and willing to help you out how ever he can! It was such a blessing to be able to go in his shop and chat through my flower vision for our big day.
    After meeting with numerous florists, I knew right away Apple Blossoms was the florist for us! I highly recommend Apple Blossoms to any and everyone!

    Friendly, professional, amazing quality, and expertise

    I can truly say I am critical when it comes to flowers and the quality of them. I am let down almost every time I receive them or buy them. However when Scott brought the creations he created for me I was just overwhelmed by his amazing talent. He is so sweet, approachable, laid back and creative. I would recommend Apple Blossom to anyone that is need of flowers for any occasion!

    Apple Blossoms Floral Designs's reply:

    Thank you Christina. It was my pleasure. Many happy years to you and Chris. I look forward to seeing you in the future. Thanks again.

    Professional, creative, service oriented and flexible!

    We contracted with Scott at Apple Blossom's. Other "wedding florists" in Tampa told us about their $4,000 and $5,000 minimums! Our daughter did not want a lot of flowers but she wanted very specific flowers for her bouquet. She was engaged in Hawaii and really wanted Plumeria flowers. Other florists said it couldn't be done due to the fragility of plumeria. Not Scott! He found a way to get it done ( I am not sure he would do it again!) and her bouquet was gorgeous. He created the exact centerpieces we requested and the bridesmaids bouquets were unique and beautiful. He is very talented and creative. All flowers and centerpieces were delivered on time and exactly as promised. The pricing at Apple Blossoms was competitive and fair. I highly recommend them for any event.

    Apple Blossoms Floral Designs's reply:

    Joanna,
    It was a pleasure working with you and Kelsey. I must say it was a bit unnerving dealing with Plumeria. We made it happen. We were so luck to find the right supplier for the Plumeria. I'm so fortunate I was taught how to handle them many years ago in the beginning of my career. I'm never afraid to take on a challenge. This was more of a challenge due to the weather this year in the area and I truly did not think we could pull it off. Thanks to the amazing grower we were able to make it work. Thank you so much for the wonderful review. Many blessings to the newlyweds in many years of happiness and prosperity. Scott

    Absolutely Gorgeous

    Scott was wonderful to work with and we got so many compliments on all of the flowers at the wedding. I admittedly don't know much about floral and went to him with a vague idea and he made it beautiful. He was super flexible when it came to changing table counts at the last minute. I couldn't have asked for anything more!

    Absolutely Perfect!

    My cousin used Apple Blossoms for her wedding and after seeing how gorgeous her flowers were, I didn’t even consider another florist. Scott is so great to work with and completely went above and beyond what I ever expected. I knew the flowers were going to be beautiful but I couldn’t believe all of the extra touches he added at no additional charge. It was incredibly thoughtful and so unexpected. I am still in awe and his work really made our wedding even more special.

    Apple Blossoms Floral Designs's reply:

    Thank you so much Laura. It was such a pleasure working with you. I'm so glad you liked everything. I wish many years of happiness and health to you and Bryan in the years to come. Thanks again for the lovely review.

    We are so happy

    My bridal bouquet and boutonnière were just as I had imagine they would be! Scoot and Ron did a fantastic job with creating our flowers based on my description and sample photos. They were friendly, professional and a pleasure to work with.

    Thank you so much. It was truly a pleasure working with you. I'm so happy you liked everything. Best wishes to both of you.

    Had me at "Hello"

    I called a bunch of florists when I first started looking and honestly Ron had me at "Hello"! He was so calm and funny! He told me not to look at Pinterest and not to worry about knowing what I wanted but to come in and let them help me! It was the best decision I have ever made! I met with Scott and he was so organized! He had books of flowers organized by color and if you knew you wanted a specific color you could look through that book to see the hundreds of flowers that come in that color! It was so helpful! Scott realized I was more visual and made up some quick centerpiece ideas just to help me figure out what I really wanted. They were so easy going when plans changed and they were happy to help in anyway possible! Ron and Scott were amazing from beginning to end! I can't say enough about them! Apple Blossoms was AMAZING to work with and I'm sure I will use them for other flowers in the future! Thank you so much for everything!

    You and Luis were such a pleasure to work with. Thank you so much. It's always a pleasure to help someone out and make the process as easy as possible.

    Scott at Apple Blossoms Floral Designs was so helpful in our planning of our wedding by offering us ideas for the flowers to use and making great suggestions to save us money. The floral arrangements were beautiful and elegant and his ideas to decorate the cake and tables were on the mark. We got so many compliments on the floral designs. We would highly recommend them for anyone's floral needs.

    Wedding Florist extraordinaire!!

    I cannot say enough good things about Scott and the Apple Blossom Team! They took my wedding vision and made it come to life and I definitely challenged them with what I wanted. I fully trusted Scott to make sure my wedding was beautiful as he really takes the time to get an idea of what you want and helps find ways to fit it in your budget. I was blown away walking into the venue and cannot say thank you enough to his team. GO WITH APPLE BLOSSOM IT WILL BE THE BEST VENDOR!

    Most talented florist!! A True Gem!!

    I cannot say enough great things about working with Apple Blossoms!! Scott is truly one of the kindest people I've ever met and he is a genius when it comes to flowers and decor. My fiance and I gave him a few basic ideas on what we wanted for our wedding flowers and what he designed for us was absolutely breathtaking! Even while typing this I'm feeling a little emotional thinking of how I felt when I first saw my bouquet!! It was like a dream really! And then the rest of the centerpieces and decor were just jaw dropping. You could tell that every element was carefully thought about and you could just feel the love that went into these creations. I'd recommend Apple Blossoms to absolutely anyone who is looking to work with someone who really cares and has amazing talent! Simply amazing!

    Apple Blossoms Floral Designs's reply:

    Melissa and John,
    I was deeply honored when you came to me for your flowers for your wedding. I am so happy I exceeded your expectations. I'm always a little nervous when it comes to be given a chance to create something unique for a client. Thank you for such a lovely note. Best wishes to you and John for many years of happiness and health. It was truly my pleasure to be a part of your big day.

    Every detail is attended to...

    We cannot use enough superlatives to describe the perfection of service by Scott and Ron at Apple Blossoms. In our planning meeting with them, we set out some general ideas and entrusted them to fill in the gaps and make everything come together for our wedding. And they did, they knocked it out of the park. The flowers, corsages, and boutonnieres were lovely, and the centerpieces were a focal point of the room, garnering numerous compliments. Our guests said it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended, and Scott was a large part of making it happen. They are total professionals, communication was excellent, prices reasonable, and service perfect. If you use Apple Blossom you will be very happy with your result!

    Best florist ever

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Scott and his team at Apple Blossom. Not only were they reasonable in their prices, they were incredibly responsive and it was very clear that Scott truly cares - he wants his customers to be completely happy. Scott helped us out on a special request for the ceremony design, going above and beyond what any other florist was willing to do, and not charging us a ridiculous amount to do so. On the day of the wedding, Scott was right on time and the flowers were better than I could have imagined. His team completely nailed it and we were so very happy with everything! In addition to the flowers, we happened to catch Scott again, going above and beyond, helping our day-of coordinator with the setup of our aisle runner (fighting the crazy wind on the roof with double stick tape). The coordinator said Scott would never just stand by while she worked, he had to help with anything he could. At the end of the night when we retired to our suite, the entire room was filled with the absolutely beautiful aroma of the flowers - that is a memory that we will keep forever. We just love Apple Blossom and are forever grateful to them for a perfect, beautiful wedding!!!

    Scott and his team are amazing, they truly stepped in to help save the day when my outdoor wedding ceremony was expecting rain last minute. He turned the inside reception area into what felt like a beautiful garden so I could still enjoy that outdoor feeling (but even better without the humidity!). He and his team also stepped in when my cake vendor let me down and forgot to bring stands for the cupcakes/cake, Scott let us use his own stands for no charge, I definitely recommend working with Apple Blossoms they truly did an amazing job and made my day incredibly beautiful.
    Not to mention my bouquet was absolutely incredible!

    The absolute best! Scott worked so hard to make sure our wedding was special, bringing his extensive knowledge and creative design to each facet of our big day. Scott truly made us feel like family and he was so wonderful to work with. I wish I could get married every year just to work with him! He always made sure he was in time with our budget and ideas and made our wedding flowers beautiful and affordable. Truly felt like a fairy tale! I would highly recommend Apple Blossoms Floral Design, you will be so happy!

    I loved my wedding flowers. I explained to Scott what I wanted from day one, and he delivered! I was going for romantic and rich autumn colors. I didn’t want anything too arranged. Everything turned out amazing and I truly loved my bouquet as well as the bridesmaids. He even put a little lady bug for good luck on mine. That was very thoughtful! :-)
