    Beautiful Florals

    Golden Gate did an incredible job with the florals! Not only were they beautiful, but Golden Gate was helpful, responsive, and very professional. They took care of everything between the ceremony and reception, which was incredible.

    Everything was perfect!

    Jay created a gorgeous display and met my vision perfectly for my special day. He was extremely helpful in planning a wedding from out of state. All of the flowers were fresh and beautifully arranged from the ceremony to the cocktail hour and reception. Jay is a full service florist and stays through the ceremony to relocate the flowers to the cocktail hour and reception. The beautiful sprays from our arbor looked stunning on our cake and sweetheart tables. He pinned up all of the men and mothers and made sure everything was perfect! We highly recommend Jay for any event and would use him again in the future.

    Golden Gate Studios's reply:

    Hi Lyndsay, Thanks for the very kind and sweet words. I'm thrilled that you were so happy with us on your wedding day. You were a joy to work with.
    Thanks and please stay well, Jay

    Most amazing flowers!!!

    We had the best experience working with Jay and his team at Golden Gate! He was extremely responsive, very flexible and took my many calls as we made some last minute changes. Everyone at our wedding still talks about the flowers at our wedding as the most beautiful part of our venue! You can't go wrong working with Jay, highly recommend!!!

    Stunning flowers, friendly staff

    We loved working with Golden Gate Studios for our September 2022 wedding. We had a consultation with Jay where we talked about our colors and vision for what we wanted. He has a great expertise and was flexible with the types of arrangements we wanted. Good communication, delivery to our venue spaces and hotel. The bouquets and arrangements were stunning, even better than I imagined. Highly highly recommend :)

    Thanks Audrey!! You were a sweetheart and a joy to work with.

    Gorgeous Flowers & Great Service

    I am so happy we chose Golden Gate for our special day. Jay is a joy to work with and he is very professional. GG Studios made the most beautiful bouquets, centerpieces, and garlands. I can't recommend them highly enough.

    Excellent florist

    Jay and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with. From our initial communication via email/phone to our in-person meetings with Jay to our actual wedding day, Golden Gate Studios were so wonderful to work with. The flowers were absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend Jay and Golden Gate Studios. Thank you!

    Fantastic Experience

    Golden Gate and Jay were fantastic to work with! They were always quick to respond, and worked within our budget. Their flexibility was key when our guest count came in much lower than expected due to COVID, and our table layout changed a month before the wedding. The flowers came out beautifully! Highly recommend them!

    Perfection

    Jay is the most artistic, creative man I have ever met!! I thought I had the basics down of what I wanted and he asked about everything else and I was amazing of what I missed. Our venue and church was BREATH TAKING. My bling rhinestone bouquet was PERFECT. Can’t thank Kay and his team enough. ❤️ Wish I had more photos to share and I will!!

    Thanks for the very kind and sweet words Daisy! You were an absolute joy to work with.

    Highly Recommend!

    I am so glad that we chose Golden Gate Studios! Jay was flexible and patient while working with us virtually. With the never-ending changes the pandemic brought, our order was affected multiple times from the color scheme to the number of centerpieces, bouquets, etc. Jay never flinched. He also independently took care of ensuring we remained within our original budget. We highly recommend Golden Gate!

    Amazing Florist!

    If you are looking for a florist you should absolutely go with Jay. I went to a wedding expo and saw Jay’s work there and thought it was absolutely beautiful. I knew I wanted him to be our florist. When we met with Jay I wasn’t quite sure what types of flowers I wanted but I knew the color. Jay was able to help me decide what I wanted and what he thought would look nice together. He was extremely helpful and that really took the pressure off! Due to COVID we had to postpone our wedding and Jay was extremely accommodating. My husband and I actually did get married last year and my dad contacted him to see if he would still make a small bouquet for me. He did and it was stunning. After postponing our wedding to this year there were some slight changes we had to make and Jay was on top of it. He went above and beyond to make not only my flowers beautiful but my centerpieces, cake and toss bouquet. I got so many compliments on my cascading bouquet and they look gorgeous in the photos. You can definitely tell Jay loves his job and he is excellent at it. You should absolutely book him for your wedding!

    Golden Gate Studios's reply:

    Hi Lauren, Thank you for the vey kind words! It was a very challenging year for us all. You stayed positive throughout and were a joy to work with. Please stay safe, happy and well! Jay

    Great experience

    Jay from Golden Gate studious loves what he does and it shows through his work and how interacts with his customers. He was such a professional who came highly recommended from our venue. He had great ideas and wanted to make sure our day was as beautiful as could be. We had to postpone our wedding and our number of guests changed and Jay was flexible and so understanding and helped trouble shoot our changes. We are so glad that we picked Golden Gate as our florist.

    Golden Gate Studios's reply:

    Thanks Heather! It was also a very positive experience for me. You were a sweetie to work with through these challenging times.
    All my best, Jay

    Wonderful Service

    Jay has been so wonderful to work with from the beginning! He was very professional and had lots of books and arrangements to show us from past weddings, which was very helpful. He helped us design exactly what we wanted for our special day. Even when we had to cut things down for our mini wedding, Jay made it all work out for us. We are very grateful to Jay and his team for an outstanding job and stunning floral arrangements.

    Absolutely amazing

    A friend who had also used Golden Gate Studios recommended them and I am SO SO glad that we used Jay and his team.
    Working with this vendor was super easy and flexible. He was able to keep us in budget and recommend flowers and colors etc.
    The flowers day of were STUNNING. I was shocked. They were so beautifully decorated and put together! It made our venue pop dramatically and everyone commented on it. Honestly gorgeous!
    We ended up giving away a lot of flowers and people were so happy to take them home since they were stunning.

    I can't say enough good things, we will definitely be using their services again for any future parties or events. 10/10!

    Thanks Destinee, You were a sweetheart to work with through these very challenging times. I still love working with positive brides who want to be happy!

    Flower arrangements were stupendous and service was unsurpassed

    Jay from Golden Gate Studio is not only a true artist when it comes to flower arranging and design, he is one of the kindest most generous people I’ve ever met. I cannot say enough about the experience I had with Golden Gate Studio. The flowers were something out of a movie and exceeded my expectations, the customer service was the best I’ve ever received and the pricing was more than competitive compared to other florists in the area. Do yourself a favor and give Jay a call you will be thrilled!

    Beautiful arrangements, amazing to work with

    Golden Gate Florists were highly recommended by our vendor (Foster Country Club), and we were not disappointed. We met with Jay twice - first for the consultation and the second time to see a sample of our centerpieces. They were easy to work with, flexible, and fit within our budget. They were worth every penny. When we lost two prominent family members and asked for a way to honor them, Jay arranged for white roses to be placed around our memory table (one rose for each lost loved one), and it was beautifully done. We cannot recommend Golden Gate enough.

    Incredible flowers!!!

    We are so thankful we chose to go with Jay and his team for our wedding day! They easily handled florals for every aspect of the day and clearly love what they do SO much. From our first meeting, Jay easily understood what I was looking for and perfectly created my nitpicky Pinterest board with ease. I honestly never once worried about our flowers even though they were the most important design detail of my day. Golden Gate are some of the most reasonably priced florists we found and delivered an incredible product. An extra added bonus is the ability to pay with a credit card!!!

    Amazing flowers and people

    I was recommended Golden Gate for my flowers from a friend who had been to several weddings in RI that used them. I have to say I would recommend them for anyone in the area needing flowers for their wedding. Jay was amazing to deal with and he kept the flowers within our budget and they looked GORGEOUS!! I knew nothing about flowers except the colors I wanted and he picked great flowers and the color combinations looked great.

    Easy to work with

    I'm not putting much into flowers as I am not a big flower person. My venue package includes centerpieces and the size for $ was great. I showed her my pinterest ideas and she was able to do everything I wanted.
