Floral Greeters occupy a distinctive space between entertainment and event design. Their costumes become part of the room’s visual composition, adding scale, movement, and personality without requiring a traditional performance area.

They may remain stationary at a grand entrance, welcome guests along an arrival path, or move through the event as roaming characters. Choreographed routines may also be incorporated when the program calls for a more defined performance moment.

Guests approach the cart and choose their flowers stem by stem. A garden rose for softness. A sculptural bloom for height. A trailing piece of greenery to finish the composition.

There is no need to rush.

The Flower Bar by Temporary Tropics is a guided floral experience that invites guests to slow down, follow their creative instinct, and leave with an arrangement of their own making.

The room shifts when they enter.

At nine feet tall, the Graceful Green Giants move through an event with an unhurried, almost otherworldly presence. Covered in layered foliage from crown to foot, they appear less like conventional performers and more like pieces of the landscape that have quietly come to life.

Part living sculpture, part strolling entertainment, these botanical characters transform an arrival, reception, or dinner into something gently theatrical.

For Florida weddings, galas, milestone birthdays, holiday parties, and private celebrations, palms, tropical plants, topiaries, flowering botanicals, trees, and hedge walls can transform both indoor and outdoor spaces with remarkable ease.

Corporate events ask a great deal of their environments. A single venue may need to support registration, education, networking, hospitality, branding, entertainment, and executive conversation—sometimes within the same day.

Live foliage helps those spaces perform without making them feel overdesigned.

For more than two decades, Temporary Tropics has shaped botanical environments across Florida’s most distinctive venues and events. Today, we operate at the intersection of horticulture, design, and hospitality—providing live foliage rentals, biophilic event design, florals, entrances, backdrops, entertainment, and elevated experiences.

Yet live foliage remains at the heart of our work.

The Fedora Atelier by Temporary Tropics is a live fedora painting activation that combines artistry, entertainment, guest engagement, and gifting within one thoughtfully produced experience. Guests select from a collection of curated designs, observe as a professional artist completes the artwork in front of them, and leave wearing a hand-painted keepsake created for the occasion.

Part atelier, part performance, and entirely memorable, the experience transforms a cl

The most successful event décor does more than occupy a space beautifully. It solves a problem, influences movement, encourages interaction, and continues providing value as the event evolves.

For the Excellence Lawyers Retreat, Temporary Tropics was tasked with transforming a transitional foyer into a purposeful part of the guest experience. The foyer sat between the registration hallway and the ballroom, making it an essential point in the natural movement of attendees. Rather than treating it as a space guests would simply pass through, we designed it as a destination.

A live fashion sketch artist brings both possibilities together through an elegant, highly personalized event activation. As guests arrive in their carefully chosen attire, the artist translates their look, posture, and presence into an original watercolor fashion portrait. Each illustration becomes a graceful record of the occasion—and a keepsake that continues telling the event’s story long after the room has emptied.

Temporary Tropics approaches floral design as an extension of the environment. Led by dedicated creative direction, our florals, live foliage, botanical installations, and interactive activations are composed to honor the architecture, brand, and intention of every event.

A grand entrance does more than welcome guests. It creates anticipation, guides movement, establishes the event’s visual language, and transforms arrival into an experience. Explore how Temporary Tropics combines live foliage, hedge walls, architectural arches, truss systems, lighting, branding, and interactive activations to create purposeful event entrances throughout Florida.

Aboard SeaFair, live foliage transformed the main dock, interior lounges, and sky deck into a refined Halfway to the Holidays experience. Discover how Temporary Tropics uses botanical design, entertainment, and thoughtful event management to create corporate and social holiday events throughout Florida.

Some ceremonies mark more than an achievement. They mark the beginning of a responsibility.

For Memorial Healthcare System’s White Coat Ceremony in Hollywood, Florida, Temporary Tropics was honored once again to provide the live foliage that framed the stage for this significant professional milestone. The ceremony recognizes physicians as they enter a new chapter of medical service—one defined by knowledge, compassion, judgment and the privilege of caring for others.

A wedding plan can change in a matter of minutes. The experience should never feel as though it did.

For a recent private wedding at Andaz Miami Beach, the original ceremony was designed for an outdoor setting. As the wedding day approached, weather conditions required a last-minute move indoors, shifting the ceremony into a hotel ballroom and changing the visual context of nearly every design decision.

There is a particular stillness that comes from working with your hands. No screen to check, no presentation to follow and no pressure to perform—only color meeting clay and an idea slowly taking form.

The Glazed Atelier is a guided pottery-painting experience created for corporate meetings, conferences, incentive programs, executive retreats, team-building events and private Client gatherings throughout Florida. Under the direction of a master ceramicist, Participants decorate pre-formed pottery pieces while learning the foundations of technique, color theory and finishing.

There is something quietly grounding about working with soil and living things. Hands become occupied, conversation begins to flow and, for a little while, the pace of the day softens.

The Botanical Atelier is a guided plant-design experience created for corporate meetings, conferences, incentive programs, executive retreats, team-building events and private Client gatherings throughout Florida. Led by a master botanist and professionally facilitated from beginning to end, the experience invites Participants to create their own plant or succulent arrangement in an atmosphere that feels relaxed, social and intentionally unhurried.

The most effective event amenities are rarely decorative alone. They solve a real need while quietly improving the way people experience the program.

Temporary Tropics is introducing branded phone charging stations for conferences, conventions, trade shows, corporate meetings and special events throughout Florida. Designed as both a practical attendee service and a visible sponsorship platform, each station creates a place where guests can recharge their devices, pause between sessions and remain connected to the event around them.

An effective exhibit does more than fill an assigned footprint. It creates a sense of place.

Within a convention hall, conference venue or exhibition floor, every brand is competing for a limited amount of attention. The most memorable spaces are not always the largest or the loudest. They are the ones that feel considered from the first approach: a clear entrance, a strong visual anchor, an intuitive place to gather and enough detail to make the environment feel complete.
