create your own wedding flowers
DIY Wedding flowers workshop
10am - 3pm
Creating your own wedding flowers with the help of family and friends can add a wonderful unique touch to your wedding day. On this one day intensive workshop you will learn how to arrange a variety of bridal flowers from bouquets and buttonholes, to simple but stunning ceremony flowers which you can later repurpose as party venue decorations.
Taking on the flower arranging for a wedding can be an exciting but often daunting task with the pressure of high expectations, sourcing ingredients, conditioning and keeping flowers fresh, choosing suitable designs, working with a given budget and general logistics for the day. With planning and a little bit of floral design guidance you can make sure you will be prepared for the job and most importantly enjoy one of the most important days in your life.
During our workshop we will talk about choosing the best cut flowers, foliages, enhancing your designs with home grown and natural, foraged ingredients, conditioning and storing your flowers. On the day you will learn to create a romantic, wild, naturally styled bouquet and a mini posy style buttonhole. We will be looking at different ceremony flower designs, easy to install as a beginner, and will create a stunning meadow style aisle flower arrangement. Using a number of these along your aisle can also double as table centrepieces at your wedding party.
All materials will be provided, together with light refreshments. Please bring your favourite snips or secateurs and a packed lunch.
