Made my dreams come true!
John at Bruce Wayne florals made all my dreams come true! From start to finish, it was en easy and enjoyable process. He was always very responsive and polite. We had zero issues with billing or communication as John was always transparent. He even help me stay with in budget. We had a few phone calls to review my Pinterest board and ideas. John Followed up with a beautiful and easy to read proposal with my inspiration pictures for each portion (bridal bouquet, table scapes, etc). I must have interviewed 6-8 other floral designers but I know for sure we made the right decision. Everyone raved about my bouquet and mentioned how not a floral detail was overlooked. If I ever have another event, I will definitely choose Bruce Wayne again. I cannot thank them enough for all of their hard work and dedication to providing us with our dream florals. -

I cannot say enough good things about Bruce Wayne Florals. They ensured that our wedding at the Museum of Fine Arts on 4/22/22 was absolutely stunning. John and his team are incredibly professional and as a pandemic bride and I am so appreciative of the flexibility and kindness that they demonstrated during our longer-than-expected wedding planning process. -

The word “wow! ” does not do any justice
The exclamation of the word “WOW!” does not do any justice to describe the results of John Elice of Bruce Wayne Florals’ work. The flowers were incredibly beautiful, and many guests complimented them. Without a doubt, John Elice of Bruce Wayne made the floral arrangements look far more expensive than they were. In addition, between the floral arrangements, candles, tablecloths and chargers, John Elice of Bruce Wayne made the Vinoy ballroom look like an elegant fairy-tale scene befitting the Royals. There are no sufficient words describe the beauty he created for our special day. One guest told me it looked like "Shangri-La”. It is extremely apparent that John Elice of Bruce of Wayne put all of his mind, body, heart and soul into his work. His dedication was further evidenced by John constantly trying to obtain flowers that my wife wanted but were difficult to procure, which he ultimately did.
In addition, he was extremely patient while working with us even when we had difficulty in making decisions. Moreover, he understood our vision and was able to make them a reality and sometimes suggest better ideas that fully realized our vision.
Prior to the wedding, many vendors, including other florists, had told my wife and me that Bruce Wayne Florals were the best of all florists. My wife and I saw just how true that statement was, and then some, on our wedding day. Bruce Wayne Florals deserves 20 out of 5 stars!

Bernadette Sent on 09/22/2020Absolutely Fabulous
John was absolutely wonderful to work with. The initial meeting left me with a concrete vision of what my wedding would look like. The actual day of was even better than I had imagined and the flowers were gorgeous. The mix of high and low centerpieces and tropical greenery with pops of color made the wedding so special and I could not have hoped for more. I’m so thankful and amazed at how beautifully the day turned out and it couldn’t have been done with out John! -

Amazing!
John was delightful to work with. They always answered our calls and even put us in touch with a wedding day of coordinator when we were in a pickle 2 days before the wedding. The flowers were absolutely stunning and so was every single arrangement. Most of our guests took some of the arrangements home because they were so beautiful. He went above and beyond to make our special day look amazing!! -

Floral Dreams Come True
Florals were one of the biggest things we were worried about during the wedding planning process, as we weren't even sure what we wanted. We had a couple different ideas, but we knew we wanted a clean look, with all white flowers. During our consultation with John, he took our pinterest board, and was able to take it all and paint the perfect vision of what we wanted. Going into the meeting, we thought we wanted all tall centerpieces - but after speaking with John he told us that he recommended a mix of tall and short because of our venue. Right then and there we knew they were the florist for us - he was putting our vision before the more expensive product. Leading up to our big day, John was in constant communication with us, and was so quick to respond to all of our crazy requests/changes. The day finally came, and everything was perfect! Not just the flowers, but the service as well - the team took care of everything from delivery to the church to setup of our votive candles to placing fresh flowers on our cake at the reception. One of the best things that Bruce Wayne offers is breakdown/cleanup of the flowers - this is something that is amazing, and we highly recommend! (you do not want to leave your bridal party to have to clean it all up, and return any rented pieces). Thank you Bruce Wayne for making our wedding so beautiful, and memorable! -

Amazing experience and stunning florals!!
One of the best decisions we made was hiring Bruce Wayne Florals for our wedding day. As my wedding theme was evolving, I had an idea of how I wanted my florals to look, but was having a difficult time finding supporting examples. This wasn’t an issue AT ALL for John (main contact) and I knew I was in great hands. The proposal that was put together captured my ideas perfectly and really brought my vision together! We decided that we wanted these tall gold centerpiece stands, which they were kind enough to order for us! Our mock trial just added to the excitement. We were able to see what each centerpiece and table setting would look like. John was so patient and came up with several ideas to tweak some things here and there. About a month out, we decided that we wanted to add more greenery to the entrance and to make the cake/dessert table area more of a “statement wall”. On the wedding day, their generosity and over-delivery did not go unnoticed. They managed to add an extra arrangement to our guestbook table and more greenery to our bridal party feasting tables. When the reception room was revealed to my husband and I, we BOTH teared up. The florals exceeded all expectations and were so stunning. John is extremely talented and went above and beyond executing my vision for our wedding day. -

Lacey Sent on 03/04/2020WOW, just wow!!! GORGEOUS wedding flowers
I am so happy I found this company. I tried to hire another vendor initially who was very unresponsive. Bruce Wayne florals made the prettiest tall beach themed wedding bouquets ever and I am so grateful! They had white orchids, roses, hydrangeas, and gorgeous greenery. The candles and shells were a great touch too. They have wonderful customer service and I’ll never forget them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! -

Floral Dreams
I really can't say how happy Chance & I are that we chose Bruce Wayne for our wedding florals. Let me begin by saying, John (main contact) is unreal & a magician when it comes to creating floral centerpieces. I went into my first meeting not too sure of what we were going for. He was so kind and walked me through the whole process- bringing out different florals to show me how they would look together in different vases, etc. I was in contact with John throughout the planning process about as frequently as I was with the venue.. he was so kind & prompt with answering every question to make sure I had answers to all of my largest and tiniest inquiries. He truly brought our floral dreams to life! When Chance & I walked into the reception area for the 1st time, we both were stunned & speechless.. the florals transformed the ballroom. We had guests (& still is being brought up) coming up to us all night stating they'd never seen such beautiful centerpieces. Something that also stood out to me- prior to walking down the aisle with my dad, my dress lace was stuck on a jewel on my shoe.. John was so sweet and got down to untangle my dress even though he was in the middle of creating centerpieces. Can't recommend BW enough, thank you for making our day SO special! -

John helped my vision come to life with how the aisle was set up and all of the bouquets, table arrangements...everything was beautiful! He was very good at adding and removing any of my requests and helping with my indecisiveness, he also brought to the table very good ideas which I wouldn’t have thought of myself. Overall I am very pleased with the outcome and couldn’t have picked a better florist. -

Birchwood wedding
Bruce Wayne florals made the flower arrangements for my June wedding at the Birchwood in downtown St. Petersburg and they were beyond amazing. I had the pleasure of working with John Elice who from the beginning to the end made what can seem like an overwhelming process easy, fun and exciting. While I had some basic floral knowledge, John Elice went above and beyond to show me different options with flower as well as table setting arrangements to executive my vision beyond what I could have imagined. Not only was Bruce Wayne florals an integral part of my table top arrangements but they made my gorgeous chuppah, arranged table clothes and napkins, provided beautiful candles, and complimented my cake with stunning fresh flowers. They really knocked it out of the park! I will never use another florist ever again. I urge any bride who wants a trustworthy florist with beautiful taste to meet with Bruce Wayne florals to ensure the wedding of their dreams. -

I am so happy we went with Bruce Wayne Florals for our wedding! For our wedding, we only needed flowers for the bridal party and immediate family members. We had a few changes made within the year of signing a contract with them, and they were very responsive and accommodating. When the flowers arrived on the day of, everyone was blown away! The flowers were BEAUTIFUL! I kept being asked by other vendors that day which company I had gone with because they were so impressed by them. I highly recommend them! -

Fantastic to work with & PERFECT florals!
My husband and I were planning a 200+ person destination wedding, so we needed A LOT of flowers and I am so happy we chose Bruce Wayne Florals. John from Bruce Wayne Florals was fantastic to work with from start to finish! Since I was planning a wedding from Chicago, John set up a mock-floral appointment when I was in town so I could see what the arrangements would look like prior to finalizing my order. During the mock floral appointment, John advised me to re-think my initial floral arrangement for our ceremony on the beach due to the possibility of wind. I am so grateful for his honesty that day, because it was very windy during our ceremony and the alternative he suggested was absolutely perfect! For our wedding, the Bruce Wayne Florals team designed a step & repeat floral wall, floral arch, floral table arrangements, and all the bridal/bridesmaids bouquets. Every arrangement was in perfect bloom and absolutely stunning. Moreover, several of our guests reached out to tell us how beautiful and unique the floral arrangements were. -

Kristen Sent on 07/21/2019The number one vendor at our wedding
I’m not one to write reviews, but in this case it’s warranted because John Elice is that good. From the very beginning he was fantastic to work with: professional, eloquent, and willing to work with us to find a vision for our wedding. I knew I wanted something a little different, so I said “red” and “driftwood”, but otherwise VERY little guidance and John created the most beautiful bouquets and centerpieces with a touch of flare. I received more compliments on my flowers than I did on my dress. Truly, you can’t go wrong here...I can’t say enough good things. I’ve included a few photographs for reference, but unfortunately they don’t convey just how beautiful he made our reception and ceremony! -

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Bruce Wayne Florals! As soon as I walked into their shop for the initial consult, I was blown away at how beautiful their shop was and how much it had to offer. As someone who knows very little about flowers and had a hard time putting into words what I wanted for my wedding, John Elice made the process so simple and effortlessly guided me into the vision I was imagining. When I saw the florals on our wedding day--from the bouquets, boutonnieres, center pieces, etc--I was amazed at how perfectly it matched the vision in my mind!! The florals on and surrounding our sweetheart table were breathtaking, as were all of the accent pieces used throughout the reception. We received SO many compliments from our guests on our florals, and they looked so gorgeous in our wedding photos. Can't say enough great things about them. Highly recommend! -

My daughter's wedding was absolutely beautiful and one of the main reasons was Bruce Wayne Florals. The flowers could not have been more beautiful. Perhaps, more importantly to a Mother of the Bride, was the understanding, flexibility, and creativeness of Bruce and his wonderful staff. The planning, preparation, and wedding day were all stress- free. I am so grateful and blessed to have had them as part of this very special day!!! -

Amanda Sent on 04/20/2019Would hire them again and again and again...
I had the most incredible experience with Bruce Wayne Florals. I worked with a lovely gentleman named John who made the experience an absolute pleasure and honestly I wanted to flat out be friends!
From the get go I mentioned that we didn't really have a set budget because we didn't understand how much things costs. We mentioned we couldn't go crazy but that we'd appreciate his honest opinion on what we needed and how much it would cost us. Well, did he deliver! We found his pricing to be extremely reasonable and our wedding day was just a flower explosion! There were flowers everywhere and beyond what we could have even imagined when we were talking through our vision. I don't honestly know how he did it. He nailed every aspect of what I wanted and completely got my (and my husbands) taste. It was honestly spectacular.
I would fully recommend Bruce Wayne Florals to anyone who is looking for flowers in the Tampa area. I honestly want to get married again just to work with John. You will be so so so happy you choose them! -

Getting to work with John was a pleasure! From the moment we first visited the shop, we knew we were in good hands! John and team worked to turn our Pinterest board into reality! The process was a blast! We loved getting to plan and then visit to see samples of what the flowers/centerpieces would look like on the big day! The end results exceeded our expectations. -

Luisa Sent on 04/11/2019Most hassle-free and spectacular part of my wedding.
I initially came to John just for personal flowers because I was intimidated by the cost of floral arrangements. Because of his genuine kindness and support - he was never pushy or made me feel like my wedding would be less-than if I didn't do more - I trusted him right away, I came back pretty quickly and added more and more. I handed over to John aspects of my wedding scenery and tablescapes that I wanted but was hoping to DIY to save money. Bruce Wayne Florals was not only worth the money, but it was hands-down the best investment I made in my wedding. Everything was show-stopping and magical, the #1 thing people talked about. I kept peeking around the venue as I was getting ready to catch a glimpse of what his team was doing because I was in absolute disbelief that everything looked a million times better than I had ever imagined. These people are kind, flexible, respectful, and willing to do nearly whatever it takes to make sure your vision is realized. They are responsive, organized, trustworthy, and really, really good at what they do. I highly recommend them and encourage you to invest in your florals! -

We worked with John at Bruce Wayne Florals who helped us and our wedding planner come up with a wonderful package that fit within our budget. We requested greenery down the aisle and they created stunning eucalyptus foliage that looked absolutely beautiful. Every bouquet, table piece, and arrangement were so gorgeous and perfect. The flowers took my breath away the moment I saw the ceremony and reception spaces. We could not have asked for a better florist!! -

I can not say enough about how wonderful my entire experience with Bruce Wayne Florist was! From the moment we met John had a clear vision of exactly what I was looking for.

Kris Sent on 08/23/2018Bruce Wayne is the superhero of florists here in the St. Pete area, along with his partner, John Elice. My daughter and I had several visits to their beautiful shop for consultations. They had many helpful and creative ideas for bouquets and arrangements for the church and the venue. They had all the containers, vases, votives. candles, exactly what we needed right there in the shop. They also helped secure special table coverings that my daughter wanted for her Kate Spade inspired look. A mock-up of two of the arrangements was shown to us in the shop a few weeks before the wedding so we could see exactly how the flowers and colors would look.
The flowers....so gorgeous and fresh! I shared some with friends after the wedding and many lasted for two weeks!!
Don't mess around for your special day, go with Bruce Wayne for your arrangements and bouquets.

Alex Sent on 07/25/2018I could not ask for a better team for our wedding decor. Bruce and John gave more time than expected and were willing to modify plans to accommodate any budget limitations. They helped us to rent specific table cloths we were looking for. They also had numerous configurations for high/low/mid height centerpieces. We had a sneak preview of our arrangements months prior to the wedding which was immensely helpful. Somehow the flower on the wedding day were even more beautiful! I have never heard so many guests rave about the flowers at a wedding; they were truly memorable and made the day.

I only had a few real flowers but what they did for my wedding were above and beyond anything I could have imagined and helped to bring my vision to life so well. All the flowers went perfect together from my husband’s boutonniere , my bouquet and hair flowers. They even sent me with a few options to choose from. All the flowers lasted through the Florida heat, several hugs and lots of dancing and people complemented them all night. Thank you for everything!

Joe Sent on 05/04/2018Another vendor my wife and I were so fortunate to have as a part of our wedding was Bruce Wayne florist. All I can say is what Bruce did for us was truly one of the kindest things anyone has done for us. Only a few people will understand, but his heart is huge. Working with John was a privilege. The arrangements were so full and perfect for our theme. Even the small touches added to our cake was fantastic. You can’t ask to work with two guys that are more talented and caring. They know the importance of their client’s big events and it more than shows in their work. Thank you again gentlemen!

Melinda Sent on 04/03/2018There are not enough words to express our appreciate for John at Bruce Wayne Florals! With only a week's notice and a small budget, John took on our order with enthusiasm and treated us as if we were his number one client, asking pertinent questions, patiently explaining flower choices, and going above and beyond to try and match our vision with our budget. His final creations were stunning! The flower arrangements transformed a laid back beach restaurant on an Air Force base into an elegant waterfront wedding venue! The guests could not quit commenting on John's floral masterpieces. We never would've dreamed that we could get this kind of service and product on our budget! We are incredibly grateful that our wedding planner recommended John at Bruce Wayne! No matter your budget, this is where you want to go for kind, expert, personal attention and absolutely gorgeous flower arrangements and bouquets! Your floral dreams can and will be brought to fruition at Bruce Wayne Florals! We cannot thank you all enough, especially you, John! Melinda (MOB)

We had a morning ceremony at Sacred Heart Catholic Church followed by a luncheon at the Don CeSar, and later that night hosted an evening reception at the Don.

Ann M. Sent on 02/23/2018For a Destination Wedding, it’s not easy choosing vendors. I can’t begin to explain just how wonderful our experience with Bruce Wayne Florals was. After phone consultations with a few different florists, we were very disappointed as none of them were very helpful and seemed a bit bothered by our questions. We contacted the next florist on the list, she recently closed her business but recommended John. He was absolutely fabulous! Spent time with us making sure we were getting what we wanted. Wedding day came, flowers delivered on time and were just gorgeous! The final touch for my daughter’s wedding was amazing. Thank you John for making my daughter’s wedding day, in her words, “It was a perfect day!!!”
