I'm thinking 10 or 12' guys! So real ones in Ohio aren't going to cut it, and storing large ones isn't an option..

Oasis seems to have the best looking "fake" ones, but they command a premium price over the others!
I have 11 of them from tropicalpalmtrees.com
I installed them over a period of 3 years.
I just removed the fronds from them and covered each tree with a plastic bag to keep snow out, may not really need to do that but removing the fronds is a good idea just to get more life out of them since no need to be set up in winter.
Stood up to high winds great , close to 65 mph gust.
No sign of ageing on them after 4 -5 years now. Slight fade on fronds but you wouldn't know it .
Anchoring on a cement pad deep enough is the crucial part with rerod in pad. They come with instructions and the business is real helpful. The ship is costly on the 8ft and above, ran me about 200 - 300 for 2 at a time, shipped by semi.
The smaller 6ft can be shipped by UPS for about half the cost, also the 6ft one is only installed into ground with a post, no cement but has also held up great.I have the 6-8-10ft versions.
Looking at the site from custom palm trees you posted, they look and are named the same as the first one on the list , but have a larger variety of trees. Appear to be made the same as mine looking at the trunks and the way they are made and what materials used. They are made out of easily found building materials but the fronds would be a challenge to make, but you can buy them separately but might end up costing more in the long run.Drain tile, rubber belt, steel tube, buckets of laytex caulk, house paint
here is another version the way made.
