Northside Florist, Inc

Kathy at Northside is not to be topped. She is very professional, personable and a delight to work with. I was very nervous about flowers and had a vision of what I wanted and wanted to do the most I could but not spend too much. Kathy made that happen. We went with carnations and a lot of people thought I was crazy. Kathy really pulled it off though! The centerpieces were half a ball of red carnations tightly placed and set on a tall clear vase. At the base were a circle of aqua blue hydrangeas and there were aqua led lights inside each vase shooting some color up through the middle. The overall look of these on the tables was really breathtaking. The bouquets were also beautiful. The bridesmaids carried ivory bouquets of hydrangeas, surrounded by carnations, with eucalyptus edging. They were perfect! My bouquet was lovely as well. I wanted all red flowers and that’s what I got. Very perfect. The boutonnieres were very simple – red calla lilies for the guys and they completed the look. Kathy really went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and that everything was how we wanted. Her work is simply top notch!

Our flowers and centerpieces were AMAZING and so beautiful! We worked with Kathy and the quality of service shows in her products and we were completely wowed at how our centerpeices turned out and can't wait to send her pro pictures from the evening. All of the florals were just what we had hoped for and they went above and beyond the call of duty, and they are so wonderful to work with...i'd be happy to share pictures. Highly recommend.

Kathy is such a lovely and easy-going person. She met with my husband and I on multiple occasions to discuss plans for the wedding. The flowers for my reception looked absolutely beautiful. I also loved my bouquet and the flowers on the bamboo arch. I have nothing but positive things to say about Northside Florist. They are wonderful. Thank you for making my wedding day look so beautiful. <3 Mr. & Mrs. Frias

Amazing flowers! Great service and excellent price! Could not have asked for more!!!! Highly recommended!!!

They were so helpful. My budget was miniscule and I told them what I had in mind and they gave LOTS of IDEAS and how I could have the look I wanted with the money I had! LOVED THEM!!!

Kathy was absolutely wonderful and you really couldn’t beat her prices! The flowers were absolutely beautiful, better than I had imagined! Kathy also decorated our arch with an arrangement on the top and white fabric and silk ivy…it was perfect! She even stayed to help pin on all the bridal party flowers. She was wonderful to work with and really knows what she is doing!

From the first time I met with her, I could tell that Kathy Gilbert, owner of Northside Florist, had caught the vision I had for the flowers for my wedding ceremony and reception. And she delivered on wedding day! From the perfect bridal bouquet to gorgeous reception centerpieces and church flowers, I could not have asked for more. The flowers were just stunning. Thank you so much Kathy!

Kathy was so great!!!!!!! The flowers turned out better than I imagined. She was great to work with and made the process seemless. Great value for the finished product!!

I am the bride that had to find and decipher through all the wedding vendors from another state. I got married in August of 2010 and I live in NY while my husband is in Tampa. When it came to florists I must have searched through dozens of websites online and what I loved most about Northside was that the designs were beautiful AND the prices were posted clearly online as well. There were no guessing games or 'please call us and we'll give you a price'. I met with Kathy about 8 months before the wedding for the first time and she was so very down to earth and friendly. Never pushy and let me give her my vision of the wedding. From the first to second time we met there had been about 4 months in between and I of course had changes, changes in bridesmaid dress colors, changes in mind for the flowers i wanted for the bouquets. Kathy was patient with me and never argued with any of my suggestions. She worked with my ideas and gave me the most beautiful wedding bouquet I have ever seen. I chose to have different bouquets for myself and my 2 bridesmaids. They were beautiful and elegant. I had the reception at the Florida Aquarium and Kathy came up with the most wonderful centerpieces ever. My guests were happy, my bridal party was happy and I was truly thrilled with the detail to attention that were given to all the flowers/centerpieces/boutonnieres that day! Go to Kathy at Northside Florist.. you really won't regret it!

I was so impressed with the quality of flowers they provide. The cost was very reasonable and they were so easy to work with despite my last minute changes!

So beautiful, more then I could even dream of.

Did an amazing job and did everything i asked. it was beautiful!!

Kathy is wonderful to work with, she goes above and beyond the average florist requirements. She will work with any budget and make it stunning! I loved being able to put my big day in her very capable hands!

Kathy did an amazing job withour flowers. She conveyed my ideas and thoughts into the perfect boquets, centerpieces, boutineers and arrangements. She was a delight to work with and helped me keep within budget. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for floral design.

I gave Kathy full control of the florals for my wedding. I told her what colors I would like and asked her to run with it since she's the expert. I LOVED my bouquet. Love love loved it. The girls' bouquets, the arch for the ceremony, everything was perfect and gorgeous. She nailed my taste perfectly and even threw in a little bit of quirk to satisfy my eclectic side. I would have her recreate my wedding bouquet every week to adorn my dining room table if I could. I would absolutely use her again and would definitely recommend her. She's a joy to work with.

Kathy took the thoughts that were contained in my wife's brain and created a floral display that made the reception. Her flowers were fresh and vibrant. WE LOVED IT. Thank you

I wish every bride could work with someone as talented and caring as Kathy at Northside Florists. I showed her my color swatch, told her my budget, some ideas I had, and she tied it all together to create a masterpiece. She really listened and did not try suggesting things outside of my budget.

A+ Kathy is absolutely wonderful, i was very pleased with everything. She gave me a very detailed price list of everything and there were no last minute surprises, she is also highly reasonable, and very professional. Even with all the last minute changes that had to be made she was very polite and eased my worries about the color.

Loved every bloom she brought us! Kathy was outstanding!

Kathy did an amazing job with our flowers! I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted and so we went through several books and got some ideas. The flowers were far beyond my expectations... I couldn't have asked for more!

I really loved working with Kathy. I changed my mind a lot and every time I called her to come in she was always friendly and never made me feel like I was bothering her. She was awesome! The only recommendation I have for her is when giving an estimate for the prices, I believe it should be done within the same day. I think anyone who is in this type of business should know how much something is going to cost. Also, the mother's coursages were suppose to be wrist coursage and they both came with pins but luckily my Mom was able to fix hers in time. Other then that absolutely no complaints and I would highly recommend her!

Kathy worked with us and gave us the best prices on wedding flowers - I loved my bouquet and the arch was beautiful! If you are looking for beautiful flowers at a reasonable price definitely check this place out!

Kathy was wonderful to work with. I just brought her photos of flowers I liked and it was as simple as that. She took care of the rest! Kathy provided detailed pricing well in advance, and there were no surprises.

The flowers were beautiful but we did have problems with the bouquets falling apart. I don't know if it was because of the flowers in the bouquets (orchids) or the shape (cascading) but flowers were falling out all day. I know that they do good work because they did the flower for both my mom's wedding and my sister-in-law's and they had no problems. Everything else they did turned out perfect.

Flowers were beautiful and delivered on time! Exactly what was promised! They were able to match a photo wonderfully!Thank you.

Great florist. Very easy to work with and very friendly. They do not charge a consultation fee. The arrangements were nice and more then meet our expectations.

Northside Florist provided us with an awesome and affordable wedding bouquet package. In the store, there were plenty of books with pictures and books to show us examples of what we might want.My only issue was that there seemed to be a problem with Kathy receiving my emails. Thus it made communication a little difficult since I was planning the wedding from Atlanta.

Our flowers looked beautiful on the day of our wedding. We were pleased with Kathy's work.

Looking for a stunning floral masterpiece? Northside's talented staff will assemble exactly what you've been dreaming about. Very friendly, family owned business.

Kathy with Northside has been providing services to my brides for years! And without fail, she thrills them every time! There is no other florist that has her calming and stressless attitude. Her work is gorgeous, and will work within any budget.
