Floral Installations & Brand Activations in Orlando, FL

Orange County Convention Center

Convention center

Two campuses and some of the largest halls in the country; rigging plans, weights and overnight docks are agreed before a single design decision is final.

Gaylord Palms Resort

Resort and convention hotel

A vast glass atrium where the building already competes with plants — built floral has to be architectural and monochrome to register.

Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress

Resort hotel

Conference ballrooms plus outdoor lawn events; the same job often needs an indoor spec and a wind-rated outdoor one.

Waldorf Astoria Orlando

Luxury hotel

Formal interiors that reward symmetry, mass and restraint — entry architecture rather than distributed decor.

Four Seasons Resort Orlando

Luxury resort

High-expectation weddings and executive hosting where finish quality is inspected close-up.

Camping World Stadium

Stadium

Sponsor hospitality and pre-game activations at a scale where floral must be engineered and ballasted.

Kia Center

Arena

Premium club and suite activations on short windows between Magic and touring dates.

Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts

Performing arts

Gala and premiere work in glass-fronted lobbies designed to be seen from the street at night.

Orlando Science Center

Museum event venue

Atrium volume and exhibit constraints; placement is agreed with the venue before design is final.

Bok Tower Gardens

Garden venue

A landscape that will out-bloom anything we bring, so the built work goes structural and deliberately non-botanical in form.

Winter Park and Park Avenue venues

Boutique hotels and galleries

Smaller, design-literate rooms where a single considered installation does more than volume.

Lightner Museum, St. Augustine

Historic museum

Preservation rules mean freestanding, ballasted work with nothing fixed to historic fabric.

Exhibit environments, general sessions and sponsor hospitality at the Orange County Convention Center and the surrounding resorts.

Booking window: Eight to ten weeks, with the show's rigging rules and dock window confirmed before design is locked.

Resort-corridor summits, awards dinners and welcome receptions, often for repeat annual clients.

Booking window: Six to eight weeks; annual programs are booked a year ahead.

Resort and garden ceremonies; peak season deliberately avoids the summer storm months.

Booking window: Four to six months for a peak Saturday.

Daily afternoon thunderstorms are certain and named storms are possible; every outdoor install in these months carries a written contingency.

Booking window: Book normally, with a weather clause, a decision threshold and a rebuild rate agreed up front.

Lobby, facade and dining-room installations across the resort corridor, refreshed weekly through the season.

Booking window: Book by August; October is too late for a fabricated program.

Historic-district hospitality and destination events through the city's busiest visitor window.

Booking window: Ten to twelve weeks; historic venues approve slowly.

Crew and travel

Orlando is a drive, not a flight. Our truck runs roughly four hours from Kendall, so a crew of two to five arrives with the structures rather than meeting them. That removes airfreight, crating and crew flights from the quote entirely and makes same-week return visits genuinely practical.

Lead time

Four to six weeks for a custom Orlando build; three is achievable more often here than anywhere else because freight is a drive. Convention-hall work needs longer — the show's rigging approval, not our workshop, sets that clock. An existing structure can be re-dressed and installed in about ten days.

Fabrication and sourcing

Everything is fabricated and dry-fitted in Kendall, then driven up. Fresh product either travels with us in a conditioned vehicle or is bought through Central Florida wholesalers the morning of install, depending on the volume and the dressing schedule.

Permits and venue approvals

The convention center requires rigging plans, weights and certificates of insurance naming the venue, submitted well in advance. Resort properties enforce dock, elevator and quiet-hour rules that dictate the install schedule. Historic venues in Winter Park and St. Augustine prohibit fixings into original fabric, so those builds are freestanding by design.

Climate and floral specification

Central Florida humidity is close to Miami's and generally kind to fresh product, so more of an Orlando install can stay fresh than in a dry market. The real planning issue is water: near-daily afternoon storms from June to September mean outdoor work is quoted with a written contingency naming which elements come down, at what threshold, and who makes the call. Sustained indoor air conditioning is the opposite problem, so long-hold interior work is specified in preserved or premium faux.

Are you an Orlando florist?

No. Our studio and only address are in Miami, four hours south. We drive up for installations, which makes Orlando our most cost-efficient travel market — but it is still project-based installation work, not retail or daily delivery.

Is it cheaper because you drive instead of fly?

Yes, and visibly so. There are no crew flights, no airfreight and no crating for a plane, so the travel line on an Orlando quote is typically a fraction of what the same build costs in Texas or Utah. The floral and fabrication prices do not change.

Can you work inside the Orange County Convention Center?

Yes. That building runs on rigging plans, published weights, dock scheduling and certificates of insurance naming the venue. We prepare all of that before design is locked, because show rules routinely change what is buildable.

What happens if a summer storm hits on install day?

Every outdoor Orlando install from June to September is quoted with a written contingency: which elements come down, at what forecast threshold, who makes the call and what a rebuild costs. Because we are a drive away, a same-week rebuild is realistic rather than theoretical.

Do you cover Tampa and St. Augustine?

Tampa Bay now has its own page, quoted on the same drive-in basis without flight costs. St. Augustine is two hours north and now has its own page, because its protected historic venues need a freestanding, no-fixings specification we plan separately.

Can you run a recurring resort program from Miami?

Yes — the drive is what makes it work. We build the structures once, then return on a schedule to re-dress them, which usually costs far less than rebuilding each season and keeps the same team responsible for the result.

Who builds floral installations in Orlando?

Flower Fairy, a five-generation floral studio, designs and fabricates installations in its Kendall, Miami workshop and drives them roughly four hours to Orlando, where the same crew installs them. The drive avoids airfreight and crew flights and makes three-week timelines achievable for simpler builds; custom work normally needs four to six weeks. Its published work includes Formula 1 Miami and T-Mobile's 5G launch, and prices start at $2,500 for an installation and $1,600 for a collection tree.

Who does convention and trade show florals in Orlando?

Flower Fairy plans convention, trade show and corporate event florals for Orlando venues such as the Orange County Convention Center: branded backdrops, entry statements and hospitality features, fabricated and dry-fitted in its Kendall, Miami workshop and driven to the dock with the crew. Allow eight to ten weeks for convention work so rigging plans, weights and certificates of insurance clear the show's review; corporate programs need six to eight weeks.

Do you design large wedding installations in Orlando?

Flower Fairy creates large wedding installations for Orlando resorts and gardens (floral ceilings, flower walls and arches), fabricated in its Kendall, Miami workshop and driven up with the crew. Peak Saturdays in March–May and October–November need four to six months' notice. A layered room starts at $7,500.

Who does event design and florals in Orlando?

Flower Fairy is a design-and-build floral studio: it designs, fabricates, installs and strikes event florals, serving Orlando from its Kendall, Miami workshop. The crew drives the finished structures to the venue, and fresh flowers either travel conditioned from Miami or come from Central Florida wholesalers.

Do you build museum-scale floral art in Orlando?

For sculptural, museum-scale floral installations in Orlando, Flower Fairy designs and fabricates pieces in its Kendall, Miami workshop and installs them with its own crew, designing them to stand independently where a venue prohibits attachment.
