The Wedding Skills Workshop is…

*Educational - The Wedding Skills Workshops are about learning new skills and information and refreshing what you knew once upon a time.  You’ll (re)learn the tricks of the trade from the pros.

*Active - Participation is expected and highly encouraged.  We believe you learn by doing and through active discussion.  We also believe there is always lots to learn!

*Intimate - so everyone has the chance to learn and participate, each session will have a limited number of seats available.  You don’t have to worry about fighting to be heard or not having a chance to ask your questions.

The Wedding Skills Workshop is NOT…

*A Member Based Group - we don’t have a yearly membership fee, you only pay for the workshops or meetings that you are interested in.

WSW: Floral Rescue

April 19th, 2009

wswfrw

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.
