All the latest from the city CREATE YOUR OWN BLOOMS Floristry is hugely rewarding and calming so Philippa Craddock’s Create Your Own Wedding Flowers Masterclass is the perfect excuse to take time out and get creative with friends and family before your special day to extend your celebrations. Colour palettes are completely flexible to suit your theme and sustainable methods are shared, so anyone can create Philippa’s natural designs and make them their own. Timings are easy to follow, plus costings and budgets are managed clearly and simply. For those who want truly bespoke flowers and to share their creativity and individualism, it’s an easy choice. “Flowers are such a creative, evocative, and beautiful part of every wedding. Many people would love to create their own arrangements but are too nervous – they want someone to hold their hand, and I am thrilled I can do that to enable you to create with confidence. I will teach you everything I know, to ensure you create the most beautiful wedding flowers and gain incredible lifelong skills,” says Philippa. Philippa has designed for hundreds of weddings around the world. She has an intuitive gift for design, has simplified all the mechanics and is passionate about sustainable floristry. Her huge portfolio has made her a logistical expert and she’s a positive, trusted and well-loved teacher. For £495 per person, the masterclass can be purchased and joined throughout the year and includes nine filmed tutorials (one for each sustainable design, for you to watch and re-watch as many times as you wish) as well as nine how-to guides, including a step-by-step visual summary, stem counts, ingredient list, tool kit and costs.
