If you are a planner, an aspiring planner, or an industry creative looking for a carefully curated experience to elevate your skills where you can learn to design with purpose and passion, then I invite you to join our first ever masterclass, the design diaries.
From my humble beginnings as a florist and decorator, to my now decade long experience planning and designing luxury weddings while simultaneously growing a successful team of planners, I am ready and thrilled to share all of my knowledge and insight in an extensive two day intimate class. This class will journey through design fundamentals, including the design process, producing strategic floor plans, design concepts, the sourcing, booking and budgeting of vendors, as well as designing for both luxury weddings and conservative budgeted weddings.
We will explore the beautiful world of floral artistry in the hands on segment of the class where we will learn the principles of floral design and create our very own arrangements, style a tables cape, hear from experts in the design field, and end the day connecting over cocktails with a panel of leading industry professionals.
Get ready to be inspired.
