WSW: Floral Rescue

Sunday, April 19th, 2009

Have you ever had to save a crushed boutonniere or been asked to make one that was missing? Have you had a mother of the groom who suddenly refused to wear a pin on corsage? Ever been faced with a bouquet where half the flowers wilted from heat halfway through the day? Did you know what to do?

If not, The Floral Rescue Workshop is for you! You will learn from Rose Bredl Flowers founder Mary Ernst McColgan - hands on - how to:

*create a boutonniere from scratch
*turn a pin on corsage into a wrist
*disassemble and reassemble a bouquet
*pin on bouts and corsages so they stay right where they are supposed to all day
*tie different types of bows

Plus other tricks of the floral trade that you can use on wedding day!

Bring your questions and wear something comfortable - this is a workshop not a lecture! Flowers to practice with and a mini emergency kit loaded with floral essentials sized perfectly for your pocket or bag are included in the admission.

Join us on May 20 at 6:30 pm for the Floral Rescue Workshop.

Admission is $25 per person and pre-registration is required as spots are limited.
