Three bridal bouquets at different construction stages on the bench

Day one, hour six: the third rebuild finally sits right.

The workshop

The piece brides actually pay for

A bridal bouquet is the highest-stakes thing a florist makes. It gets held for hours, photographed from every angle and compared to a moodboard the bride has had since autumn. This weekend teaches the construction that survives all of that.

Sunday afternoon is devoted to the part nobody teaches: packaging a bridal piece for a 40-minute car ride, and pricing it so the job is worth your Saturday.

What we cover

The weekend in modules

Four blocks, one finished bridal set per student by Sunday 16:00.

Saturday

Construction and the bridal hand-tie

Wiring delicate stems, building the dome without the cabbage look, and keeping the handle thin enough for a nervous grip. You rebuild the same bouquet until your hands stop arguing.

Wrapping that protects

Three-fold architectural wrap, aquabox setup, ribbon that survives the car ride.

Branding the piece

Cards, wax seals and the two-second details that get you tagged in wedding photos.

Quoting the wedding

A live quoting drill on a real brief: bouquet, four bridesmaids, ceremony arch.

The bridal shot

How to photograph bridal work so it sells the next one: hands, dress fabric, scale.

Ask a question

Before you book

Three things people ask

Anything else, the curator answers on the contacts page within 15 minutes in studio hours.

It helps a lot. If you can already hold a spiral you will be fine; if not, the first hour on Saturday will feel fast. We run a Friday-evening catch-up for AU$60 if you want the shortcut.

Please do. Two students each weekend usually work on their actual wedding pieces. Tell us the palette in advance and we order the stock for it.

That is exactly what Sunday afternoon is for. We drive-test the packaging over a deliberately bad route. If it survives Gouger Street at rush hour, it survives your cousin's Land Cruiser.

Next bridal weekend: 21–22 March

Four seats left. Bridesmaid pairs welcome at a shared-bench rate.
