About the Class

jennyclass

This floral immersion led by Jenny Thomasson AIFD PFCI EMC AAF and Heather Waits, who will show you how to build and price fresh and dried wedding florals, as well as create gorgeous compositions for a unique setting. This workshop will teach you all you need to know about working in wedding floristry, including how to plan, produce, and execute with grace.

Spend three days working on flowers, ceremonies, and reception arrangements. Each day will include business training to assist you in creating beautiful wedding florals and keeping your books in order. Mindset, Business Basics, Pricing & Ordering, The Client Experience, Marketing in the Post-COVID World, How to Get The Couple to Book You on the Spot, Contracts, Proposals and Policies, and What to Say, What Not to Say are just a few of the “back office” principals you'll need to succeed.

A thorough explanation of how to make the Lush and Garden Feel Hand Tied European Bouquet from the bottom up and out will be provided for the day filled with Fresh and Dried Wedding Bouquets. How to make a dramatic and striking statement in a Cascade Bouquet by using Armatures and Holders. Structures that allow for a modern and artistic perspective to be offered to a contemporary bride or groom for an avant-garde statement.

Examining Fresh and Dried Ceremony Wedding Flowers with an easy-to-understand explanation of mechanics to help you design larger-scale arrangements. Garden, Dutch Style Urn Designs, Contemporary Mono-Botanic Mass Groupings, MoonGate, and Archway Romantic Florals are just a few of the alternatives that will be explored.
