Owner, Faux Florist at Faux Real Flowers Florida
We are a new Faux Florist Franchise based in Raleigh, North Carolina, serving the Greater Tampa Bay Area, including Brandon, Riverview, Plant City, Lakeland, Bradenton, Sarasota, and other surrounding areas. We customize beautiful floral arrangements for weddings or any event. We will create your vision, deliver it to your event or venue, set it up, and pick it up after the event. Our flowers are real-touch flowers. They look and feel natural. Our flowers never droop or lose their natural feel or look. Our clients are amazed, and their reaction is priceless. Why pay so much more for flowers you will throw away when there is a new option in town that is just as beautiful!!
We have over 6,000 flowers and several wedding arbors for the traditional and rustic look. Our pricing is less than a conventional florist by recycling and repurposing our flowers. We will customize each arrangement to fulfill your vision for this memorable moment of you, share and visit our website today.
After serving 22 years in the United States Air Force, I retired in 2013, after my last overseas combat deployment. I chose floral designing as a therapeutic method, and I love it. Taking courses and making floral arrangements for family and friends gives me joy. In 2021, a wedding planner friend asked me to do her destination wedding at the Twickenham Estate Venue in Jefferson, North Carolina. The facial expression of the venue’s owner, the family members, and especially the couple changed my mindset about this hobby. After doing several other events, event planners and friends urged 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.
My husband and I (Titus) will celebrate our 30 wedding anniversary Oct 2023. We have two sons and one grandchild.
