This workshop runs over four days from 4th – 7th October 2022. The course will run from 10-4pm on the first 3 days but there will be an earlier start on the fourth day as is typical with a real wedding set up.

The workshop will be an immersive, hands on experience with plenty of learning opportunities through hands on design and business/pricing advice. All the designs we will be created without the use of floral foam.

In the afternoon we will demo an unstructured bouquet, and then participants will create unstructured bridal bouquets using some chicken wire as the central mechanic to support the stems, along with a buttonhole.

We will create a low footed compote bowl after a demo, talking about colour palettes and design principles. We will also create large urns.
