I cannot say enough amazing things about Gulfgate Flowers. From the very first conversation, the owner immediately understood exactly what I wanted--even though I only gave him a few small hints and loosely described my vision. Somehow, he just got it. He brought out the perfect flowers to show me his ideas, walked me through his creative vision, and then designed the most spectacular arrangements--all while staying within my budget. What he created was not only beautiful, but absolutely show-stopping. The florals completely transformed my daughter's bridal shower. They elevated the entire event, made it incredibly themed, cohesive, and delightfully over-the-top in the best possible way. I truly could not have imagined more perfect arrangements--they exceeded every expectation I had. His talent, intuition, creativity, and professionalism are unmatched. I will absolutely be going to Gulfgate Flowers for all of my floral needs in the future. If you're looking for someone who can take a vision (even a loosely defined one) and turn it into something breathtaking, this is your florist. Simply amazing. read more

I've seen creative, stunning arrangements from Gulf Gate a few times and when I needed a small one for the hostess of a gathering, I gave them a try. I was very happy to arrive with the arrangement and so was the hostess. It was the perfect touch for the gathering! Definitely will use again! read more

Gulf Gate Flowers really came through for me last week! I forgot a special family member's birthday until the morning of. So I called Gulf Gate to see if they could get an arrangement delivered that same day. They were glad to! Herb, the customer service person who answered the phone, worked within my budget & promised they would take great care of it. They even took a photo of the arrangement & texted it prior to delivery! I would confidently & happily order from Gulf Gate Flowers again! read more

This is an AWESOME florist and business. Besides buying bouquets and other cute items, I have shown up at their doorstep twice with a flower crisis. Both times they were able to help me out! The latest one was today and she was so sweet and sooo helpful. I will be taking her flower arrangement classes in the near future. Look no further for the perfect florist read more

A friend's father recently passed suddenly, and being out of state I wanted to find a great (not "good") florist. While the reviews for Gulf Gate on Yelp were few, there were passionate, so I took a chance... What a great (not "good") florist! I am so glad I came here. The woman in the store was helpful and kind, and the person making the delivery contacted me immediately when he found no one was home...we decided on a place to leave the flowers, and even took pictures and messaged them to me. Oh, and the flowers? Outstanding! Beautiful. Highly recommended! read more

I needed a wow-big bouquet. Gulf Gate Flowers were absolutely so accommodating for our special needs and created a stunning long-stemmed bouquet for a very very private wedding event. I could not be there, so the gorgeous flowers helped to represent my support. Beautiful heirloom blooms and legacy greenery made for a stunning presentation. A+++ I could not have hoped for better. I was so impressed with the service, on-time delivery and of course the fabulous creation! I enjoyed seeing "my flowers" in the photos. Thank you all so very much. Highly Recommend! read more

Amazing arrangement I will for sure use Gulf Gate Flowers if I send flowers to anyone. First class.

Excellent service. They pay attention to detail, and the arrangements o have ordered were above and beyond what I expected.

Fantastic locally owned and operated flower shop with beautiful arrangements and great customer service! Herb, the store owner, has a real passion for designing arrangements that look more like art in your home than just a potted plant. He has an eye for creating unique, clean and chic pieces that will add life to any home. Visit his store and you will want to buy up many arrangements! Herb really goes out of his way to make sure each customer is truly satisfied with their order. When he didn't have in stock the perfect color flower to match my home decor he sourced a flower that would be a better fit. Herbs background in sourcing beautiful plants and flowers from all over the state allows him to create pieces that will be a conversation piece in your home. read more

It's always a crapshoot ordering flowers from afar and counting on reviews and pics to select a good florist. Thus, having had a wonderful experience with Gulf Gate Flowers, I wanted to reciprocate and leave my own review for others. Speaking to Herb on the phone, I immediately felt that they wanted to make me happy and would do a fine job. Truthfully, the final result was a bit different than I envisioned since I did not select from bouquets pictured on their site, rather leaving it up to the designer to arrange something bright and cheerful for an elderly friend who was homebound after a fall. The arrangement was artful and the flowers were fresh and pristine and still look great almost a week later -- I especially love the hot pink roses! The delivery was exactly on time and price was fair. I keep hearing how beautiful the flowers are from others who visited the home where they were sent, and I agree. Without hesitation I would use Gulf Gate again read more

I'm in NJ. Called Gulf Gate today. Delivery was made to a friend in Sarasota that needed a pick-me-up. They are GORGEOUS! So, reasonably priced (especially for the quality of what was delivered), beautiful arrangement and flowers and rapid service. I would HIGHLY recommend this place and wished I lived close enough to get flowers for myself from them! read more

Great florist! Very happy with the customer service and beautiful flower arrangement sent to good friends for their anniversary. I will most definitely use their services again. read more

I seriously cannot describe how wonderful my experience was!!!!!! Not only are the flowers BEAUTIFUL, what amazing customer service. I ordered same day for Moms birthday. She is in Florida, I am in Chicago. I called and ordered the beautiful flowers. During the conversation I asked about adding some sweets. Mom sure doesnt need a whole box of chocolates...so I asked about anything else. The awesome guy on the phone (I'm sorry I don't have his name) offered to stop at Publix and GET MOM A CAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously.........who does that??? (except me, I am the doer on this end, lol). You guys made my day, and Moms day too! We cannot thank you enough! read more

The best flower everything team! Herb and Eve were so easy to work with; from our initial sit-down to the day of the delivery. They worked so hard and everything looked beautiful. They made 20 table flower arrangements, decorated a circular backdrop and a humongous 8x8 squared arch for my granddaughter's quince party. I highly recommend them, they will not disappoint you. read more

The creative front display at Gulf Gate Flowers caught my eye today and I couldn't resist walking in. There is a definite uniqueness to the beautiful floral displays in this store, which is so different than many flower shops. I was thrilled to find your special store Herb and I'm already thinking about some of the arrangements you are planning for the autumn holidays, but until then I will enjoy my gorgeous orchid arrangement!! read more
