    WOW just wow!!! Obsessed - 2/24 was a DREAM!

    Artistry Designs made my wedding dreams come to life more than I ever imagined! Everything from the florals to the event decor with draping, driftwood cross, and linens, to the flower arrangements, to the night before and day of coordination was perfect. Barb and Rachel were true gems to work with from our first consultation. They were always available to take our calls, and texts, and meet in person to look at table scapes and plan the little details. They understood our level of personalization and made our citrus, colorful, coastal wedding so beautiful. They listened to my mom, now husband, and me to make sure we were all heard and got our priorities. From communicating with our various vendors to walking us through everything, and showing us examples of layouts, flowers, designs, etc. - Rachel and Barb went above and beyond. It was perfect, and we want to relive our wedding weekend again! 

Our friends and family were raving about the best wedding they had ever attended. Our wedding was carefully thought out, stunning, elegant, and fun for all ages. Barb and Rachel became friends and confidants. No one is like them in the industry and I highly recommend them to any bride and family planning their special day. Worth every penny!

    A Dream Wedding Thanks to Barb!

    We are immensely grateful for Barb's exceptional work as both our wedding planner and florist. From the start, her dedication to making our day special was evident. The peonies were a highlight, adding enchantment with every bloom, and the triangle arch was an absolute showstopper, captured beautifully in our pictures. Barb's attention to detail and creative flair truly set her apart. The fortune cookie seating chart not only met but exceeded our expectations, showcasing her ability to flawlessly execute unique requests. Her professionalism, creativity, and genuine care for her clients make her an outstanding wedding planner and florist. We highly recommend Barb to anyone seeking to turn their wedding dreams into reality. Thank you, Barb, for making our day truly magical!

    Professional, Comforting, Skillful, Ease

    If you want two amazing women on your side during what can be a stressful event for a lot of brides, look no further than Barb and Rachel with Artistry Designs Group. I live in CA, so planning a wedding in FL was daunting, but Barb and her daughter Rachel made it a breeze. I would recommend hiring them ASAP as soon as you know your wedding date so you don't miss out.

    Professionalism: Barb and Rachel are extremely professional and efficient, yet have such friendly and warm personalities; it was a great mix to feel supported during the wedding planning process and on the wedding day itself.

    Ability to Relieve Stress: I remember one day a month or two before my wedding I was feeling off-track, and worried I was behind schedule, but Barb's confidence and gentle voice totally calmed me down as she confirmed we were on the right track as far as a wedding-timeline goes.

    Skillfulness: Finally, Barb's skill as an event and floral designer is superb. I was never a bride with a super-clear vision of what I wanted the wedding to look like, but Barb guided my husband and I in the right direction and it was money well spent - the venue looked gorgeous after her decorating, and I felt like I was in another world, not just a banquet hall. She made the place feel absolutely magical with her draping, florals, lighting and suggestions for chairs and charger plates.

    Ease: Barb and Rachel can do coordinating, event design, and florals, and hiring them to do all three of these monumental tasks made life so easy, as I didn't have to keep track of multiple vendors. Speaking of vendors, Barb and Rachel helped me so much with communicating with my suppliers, such as the photographer, DJ, musicians, etc. It was a life-saver and just another example of how I felt so supported.

    I would recommend Artistry Designs Group in a heartbeat to any couple!

    Gorgeous flowers and decor!

    Barb delivered the most beautiful flowers, bouquets and table centerpieces for our wedding at the Rusty Pelican!!! I was blown away by the quality and received many compliments.

    The perfect day

    Barb and her daughter Rachel were amazing. Barb has been so helpful, answering all of my questions and making me feel so calm and comfortable about everything. She ended up having strep throat on the day of the wedding but we weren't worried about anything because we knew her daughter, Rachel, would be there to help us. Barb was on call, but Rachel took care of everything so seamlessly. Our day was everything we imagined and more, and we are so thankful to Artistry Designs for their help in making it so wonderful!

    Barb is the best!

    Barb and her daughter Rachel made my day perfect! Barb was my full service wedding planner and florist/decorator. She helped me plan everything for over a year and was always very responsive. I always trusted her with any decision. The flowers were absolutely stunning and we got so many compliments. The day of my wedding it down poured right before the outside ceremony and her and Rachel did EVERYTHING to make sure my wedding was still outside. They made the night so seamless and I was able to enjoy everything! She also helped us save a ton of money by getting a wedding cake from Publix and she added fresh flowers (would definitely recommend this, the cake was amazing). I would recommend them 100 times over! They are the best!

    Wonderful!

    We used Artistry Designs for our florals: centerpieces, bouquets, arch on the beach, arrangements of rented statues (which they handled for us), set up inside, and day of wedding coordination. Barb takes wedding planning to the next level, she went above and beyond to make our day seamless and perfect. We are so grateful we were able to enjoy our day more due to her amazing talents and commitment to us having the best Wedding day.

    Artistry Design- Florist, Décor, & Day of Event Coordinator

    From the bottom of our hearts, Barb helped make our wedding day a dream come true. She was so easy to work with, so helpful & responsive whenever we needed her! She really helped guide us and turn our vision into a reality.

    Barb went above and beyond for us. She did the flowers & décor for our wedding, and she was our day of wedding event coordinator. Over the months of planning, we must have sent her over a 100 emails and phone calls. She would get back to us immediately at any time of the day. Any concern we had she would work with us and handle it very smoothly and professionally. She was absolutely wonderful!

    The execution on our vision and the flowers was out of this world! When we sat down and watched our wedding videos, we were blown away with how beautiful she really made things.

    Barb was very familiar with our wedding venue, and was about to help us steer clear of obstacles that we were not even aware of at the time.

    I am truly grateful for all of her help! I highly recommended her to anyone getting married in the Tampa area (clearwater)!

    The Perfect Planner = The Perfect Day

    There is not enough space on this entire website to fully describe how amazing Barb and the Artistry Design team are. We knew we immediately clicked with Barb for our wedding planning needs and she did not disappoint. At every moment during the year-long planning, she was there for us with smart, sensible and creative answers to all of our questions. Not only did she have great solutions, her response time was always extremely quick. You hear everyone say how stressful the wedding planning is - well Barb is your solution to that. We can honestly say that our stress level was extremely minimal. As a matter of fact, the only stress that we remember was a last minute glitch with the ceremony music and in less than 30 minutes, Barb had manufactured the perfect solution to an issue that was fairly important to us. We jokingly called her the wedding planning ninja, but she really can find a solution to any problem. And all with a smile and amazing disposition (not easy in this industry!). We can go on and on, but just stop reading this review and book her for your wedding. Without doubt, the BEST decision we made about our wedding. She gave us the most perfect wedding anyone could ask for. Make your wedding day as amazing as ours and use Barb for your wedding planning.

    We also used Barb for our Florals and decor. To say we were flabbergasted at the beautiful floral arrangements and ceremony space design would be an understatement. We have never seen such elegant and tasteful arrangements - anywhere. Barb managed to find the PERFECT colored flowers to match the wedding color scheme which was not easy to do. Every single guest at the wedding commented on how stunning the flowers were - STUNNING! Once again, Barb FAR exceeded our expectations and we cannot wait to see the photos and video so that we can see the beautiful arrangements again!

    Spectacular all around

    Barb and her team are extraordinary! Hands down would recommend Artistry Designs Group to any and all of our closest friends and family for wedding planning services. Barb was incredibly attentive to every detail and super dedicated to making sure everything was in order. From start to finish, communication with Barb was easy and she had the answers to all of our questions.

    We were referred to Barb by our wedding venue's catering director. We live out of state and relied on Barb's organization and well-connected network for virtually every detail for our special day. Barb's professionalism and calming presence really put us at ease. Looking back, we were incredibly grateful for having Barb as our wedding planner.

    Amazing coordination!

    We got the pleasure to work with Barb and let me tell you, she is the best! She is so sweet and kind! We used her for day or coordination! Unfortunately we didn't get 100% of the weather we wanted so our plans were up in the air/scattered. Within an hour of our ceremony time, the sun decided to come out and Barb made our BEACH wedding happen. She also was able to get drapery added as we were planning an outdoor reception, without it, our wedding would have looked like a conference room! She went above and beyond to make our vision come to life! She was very responsive to every email and helped every step of the way, especially with us being out of state! Highly recommend Barb and her team! Thanks Barb :)

    Artistry Designs was amazing!

    They were local to the area while we weren’t. They went above and beyond to arrange and align vendors for us! They also allowed us to ship items directly to them instead of hauling it all down in the car. The whole event was beautiful!!!!

    Amazing Florals and Planning Services

    Barb and her team were phenomenal! I was planning a wedding from out of state, and she made the entire process as smooth and relaxing as possible. She helped with everything from venue selection down to the smallest details (table decor, place settings, etc.). She was very responsive to our emails/calls/texts and made the planning process practically stress free! After one phone call and a few Pinterest photos, she knew exactly what we were looking for and turned our dream wedding into a reality. Her team also handled the florals for our event, and they were amazing! Her organization and attention to detail made our wedding day (and rehearsal) go off without a hitch. I highly recommend Artistry Designs.

The combination of her planning experience and her vision for design made the process so easy. She was able to bring my visions to life, while working with my budget and timeline. Barb is a wonderful human and I am so thankful I had the opportunity to work with her! Would highly recommend her to any bride!!

    The absolute best

    The moment we met Barb we knew immediately she would not only make our dream wedding come true but she would become a friend. She is extremely hard working, she gets back to you so fast with any questions you have and truly has your back every step of the way where you know you can just let go and trust. Not only is she so talented and so good at what she does - I legit feel like our flowers came out of a storybook - she's truly the most caring & kind human. I am a control freak and it was so hard for me to let someone come in and handle everything, but she listened to all of our ideas and wishes and literally took our vision and exceded our expectations beyond. We love you Barb & the Artistry Designs crew - Thank you for making our dream day come true!

    Beyond Phenomenal Flowers & Wedding Coordinator!

    Barb is truly one in a million and a must have for your wedding! While we were apprehensive about needing or hiring a wedding coordinator, we can honestly say we would not have had the wedding of our dreams without Barb. Her attention to detail was quickly apparent, as she listened to our vision and later that day sent an email with options that turned our vision into reality. We immediately signed on with Barb to be our wedding coordinator and also our florist!
    We could not have asked for a more caring, supportive, talented, or more fun loving individual to partner with for our special day than Barb! Throughout our planning stages, Barb responded quickly to each and every email and call, answered our questions and offered suggestions, and made adjustments along the way to ensure our flowers and our day were exactly what we had envisioned. When it came time for our wedding day, Barb arrived early and after checking in with us, quickly got to work. She spent the day making sure each and every detail was in place, reviewed timelines and prepped our wedding party, worked closely with all of our vendors, and regularly checked in with us throughout the day to ensure every detail was just right. Our big day was beyond perfect because of the time Barb put into planning and working closely with everyone and every aspect of our day exceeded our hopes and dreams! We will forever be grateful for Barb and her special talents! Thank you, thank you, thank you Barb!! We love you and couldn't have asked for a better person to partner with!
    Cheers, Jen & Jeni Hennegan

    Barb and the team at Artistry are exceptional!

    My husband and I are from CT and decided to have a destination wedding at the Sandpearl Resort in Clearwater. Upon our search for venues, we met Barb, who had been setting up for a wedding that night, which looked beautiful. We met with her later and decided to hire her as out wedding planner and florist. I cannot tell you how happy and thankful i am that we made that decision. Barb was was with us every step of the way, guiding us on what the next step was, and giving us great information about vendors and the wedding. She was always available via email or phone/text and always responded to my questions. She is organized and patient! She works amazingly with all members if the wedding team/vendors to make sure everyone is on the same page. She listens and ensures your wishes are met, and is even a calming presence in times of stress. Her timelines were so helpful. She was able to finagle a tent for our band last minute due to unexpected chances of rain! One of her assistants ran up to my hotel room just before the ceremony because we forgot the rings. They kept us calm and confident in their plans.
    The flowers were beyond what i could have ever imagined. She was able to match them perfectly to the colors of the wedding party. Our chuppah with white linen and floral arrangements were beautiful on the sand. Cafe lighting over the lawn- gorgeous!!
    Our wedding was absolutely perfect and stress free because of Barb and her team at Artistry! If you have a wedding in the Tampa area, I recommend them without a doubt!

    Above and Beyond

    Where do I start. I was married on November 1, 2019 at the Sandpearl on Clearwater Beach. Barb not only completely met every expectation but exceeded them. Everything I dreamt of came to life. She was so genuine and sweet, flexible, fun and made the entire getting ready process so nice because I didn't have to worry one time about anything she was doing! To this day, everyone cannot get over how pretty the florals and decor were. Next, I was lucky enough to have one of my bridesmaids be a wedding planner but didn't want her to have to do day of services. So, Barb provided day of service for me and she just made everything so smooth and comfortable. Thank you to Barb and team. I still get chills when I look any how beautiful it all turned out.

I hired Barb,reviewed colors and had everything all planned out...then, my fiance was deployed to Japan.With not knowing when he would return we called the wedding off.Thankfully he returned home 43 days before our original wedding date-Within that time frame we changed our reception venue and colors Being the frazzled Bride to be ,Barb kept everything in check for me. I could not have asked for more! It literally took my breath away when I walked into our reception,the tables were AMAZINGLY beautiful! Her work is elegant,classy and eye popping! I was honored to have such talent shine at my wedding!

    You're In Good Hands with Artistry Designs Group!

    Our experience with Barb and Artistry Designs Group was such a positive one. From the moment we hired them for planning, design & floral we felt confident that our destination wedding would go off without a hitch and it did. Barb was extremely responsive throughout the whole process which made planning a wedding from another country so much easier.
    Our wedding day was spent preparing for the evening ceremony and not stressing over details as Artistry Designs Group had it all under control. We felt relaxed knowing that Barb was on top of everything and were thrilled to see how beautiful our venue looked. Barb obviously loves what she does as it shows in how she cares for her couples and manages every detail with ease and professionalism. You’re in good hands with Artistry Designs Group!
