Flower Arranging - Wedding & Celebration Flowers Workshop - All Abilities [SSK]

Course intent

Create a selection of beautiful floral designs suitable for weddings or special celebrations such as christenings and birthdays.

What will I learn?

Your tutor will show you how easy it can be to put together a number of more traditional Wedding designs such as a Bridal bouquet and buttonholes. These will be followed with further floral arrangements for the top table at the wedding reception- designs that can also be used for other celebrations, like birthdays or christenings. We will also cover the benefits of flower arranging for your mental health, which will give you more confidence to create further designs in your own home.
