We are extremely happy with the work Rennee at FauxReal did for our wedding. The end result was wonderful and really hit the mark. She was able to work with us to make the vision come through. Her guidance, expertise and ability to make adjustments to get us to that vision was clutch. She did an amazing job with the team the day of wedding as well getting everything situated and making sure the decorations were ready. Her and her team did a great job with the set up and breakdown of everything. The flowers themselves looked amazing and no one could tell they were not actually real. The guests were very impressed.

There are not enough great words and feelings I have for Mrs. Pea and Faux Real flowers! She did an absolutely incredible job on my flowers and listened to me and what my vision for my flowers was. She was so easy to work. She was there to set up in plenty of time for my ceremony. My guests were amazed that my flowers were not real and the arrangements for the tables and the arch were gorgeous! Thank you for making my day everything I ever wanted!
Any questions?

Mrs. Pea is a true gem in the world of faux flower artistry and floristry! From the moment we reached out to her, she exuded professionalism and warmth! Communication was seamless, with Mrs. Pea quickly responding to all our questions and requests.
The displays she made for our wedding were nothing short of breathtaking! Each arrangement was perfectly designed to radiate beauty! Mrs. Pea went above and beyond by staying throughout the night, ensuring the smooth transition of displays from our arch to our tables, all while being mindful of our budget.
Her kindness and dedication was truly touching, as she not only created stunning arrangements but also took care of the cleanup, allowing us to fully enjoy our celebration without worry! Mrs. Pea's passion for her craft shines through in every detail, and we couldn't be more grateful for her incredible work. If you're searching for a florist who not only delivers exceptional artistry but also genuine care and dedication, look no further than Mrs. Pea! She is a treasure to work with and exceeded all our expectations. Highly recommended!

From the first bloom to the last petal, FauxReal Flowers transformed the wedding venue into a page from a storybook. Their dedication to their craft was evident in every centerpiece, bouquet, and floral arrangement. The team went above and beyond, not just meeting our expectations, but exceeding them with their creativity, flexibility, and sheer talent. It's rare to find a vendor who doesn't just understand the couple's vision, but also adds to it with their own artistry. The flowers were fresh, vibrant, and perfectly arranged, becoming one of the highlights of the couple’s special day. It's with great enthusiasm that I recommend FauxReal Flowers to any couple seeking a florist who can truly deliver excellence.
With heartfelt thanks,

Me and my husband went to Renee for flowers because they looked great. I didn't know there was a location in Tampa, or else we would have gone there, but fate brought us to Renee. Renee was able to meet us the first time after the shop closed so that me and my husband and I could take a look at the flowers. The instant we walked in, we felt welcomed. With us being a same-sex couple and after a vendor denied us service, it was great to meet someone too amazing! The theme of the wedding was Harry Potter, and she nailed it! We told her what we wanted, and she was able to play with different ideas to help us out. After a month of planning on the flowers, she contacted us to ask us if we wanted to try something different than what we originally thought. What she came up with was even more amazing than what she had before! At the wedding, Renee was a great asset to the setup, and her friendly demeaner was great to have there. We don't regret having her and her flowers at our wedding. Thank you, Renee!

My wedding flowers were a dream come true. Shipped halfway across the country and still in perfect, impeccable condition. I could not have been happier. Tears in my eyes matched the perfectly placed gems in my bridal bouquet. FauxReal Flowers went above and beyond for me, and on very short notice. Thank you!

A friend referred me to Renee at Real Faux Flowers for my wedding and I am just blown away by her beautiful arrangements and flower rental concept. Her service was exactly what I needed and she exceeded my expectations. The experience at her shop was personal and a fun experience picking out the flowers together. She has a great personality which made the experience enjoyable and exciting. The end product was exquisite. The arch, centerpieces, bridal bouquets and boutonnieres were beautiful. Plus, she provides an excellent delivery and set up service. I am thankful I found Renee and I highly recommend FauxReal Flowers Brandon.

Retired from the United States Air Force in 2013 and deployed several times into combat zones, I chose floral designing as a therapeutic outlet; now it's my passion. I love creating floral arrangements. I completed several floral design courses. After doing several other events, event planners urge me to pursue this as a business. After seeing the FauxReal Flowers product line and business plan, I decided to turn my therapeutic passion into a business opportunity. Ready to serve our FauxReal clients with excellence.
