Limited to 4 participants - intimate experience
$399 + taxes
This atelier is designed for highly creative brides who wish to artfully DIY their wedding flowers and for flower farmers and growers who want to add garden grown wedding florals to their offerings.
Hosted in our orchard garden, this hands-on half-day focuses on the art of nature-inspired bridal bouquet and boutonnière design using only seasonal flowers grown on-site. You’ll be guided through professional techniques in a calm, supportive environment and leave with two finished pieces to take home.
“Access your own creativity with gentle guidance”
— Jenna
I would highly recommend one of Fleuris workshops! Julie shared her knowledge and skills of floral design with a relaxed approach. This allows you to access your own creativity with gentle guidance from a very talented designer.
It was such a treat to spend an afternoon with Julie. Touring her beautiful garden and seeing the flowers in situ was a wonderful way to begin our workshop — it gave me a fuller picture of the effort that goes into growing beautiful local flowers in a sustainable way. With her gentle manner and a clear step-by-step process, Julie taught us how to create arrangements that have movement, flow, and whimsy, and I so appreciate her commitment to the environment in all aspects of Fleuris.

Her orchard garden is so unique and every corner of the space offers something beautiful or interesting to rest your eyes on.

When are your floral ateliers held?
Our floral ateliers are offered seasonally, in rhythm with what is growing in the orchard garden.
Bouquet and vase arrangement ateliers are typically held in spring and late summer, while wreath and botanical décor ateliers take place in fall and winter. Each season brings its own focus and atmosphere.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many participants are in each atelier?
Ateliers are intentionally kept small to allow for personal guidance and a relaxed, meaningful experience.
Group sizes typically range from 4 to 8 participants, depending on the nature of the atelier, with some offerings designed for even more intimate groups.
Which flowers/botanical ingredients will we use?
All flowers and botanical elements are seasonal, locally grown, and thoughtfully sourced, with the majority coming directly from our orchard garden.
Each atelier reflects what is at its most beautiful in that moment.
How often do you offer floral design ateliers?
A limited number of ateliers are offered each season, carefully woven into the growing and design rhythm of the farm.
Because group sizes are small and dates are limited, ateliers often fill quickly. Early reservation is encouraged.
Offerings are sometimes grouped by season or weekend, allowing guests travelling from out of town to enjoy more than one experience during their visit.
How much are the ateliers?
Each atelier is designed as an intimate, immersive experience rather than a traditional class.
Pricing reflects the abundance of seasonal flowers, the care given to each detail, and the small group setting that allows for thoughtful, individual guidance.
Individual pricing is listed with each atelier.
How long are the ateliers?
Most ateliers run 3 to 4 hours, either in the morning or afternoon.
This allows time to slow down, spend time in the garden, and create thoughtfully in the studio, without feeling rushed.
Do I need prior floral design experience?
No prior experience is required.
Ateliers are designed to meet you where you are, whether you are new to working with flowers or looking to refine your eye and approach.
Guidance is offered throughout, with space for creativity, intuition, and personal expression. Ingredients are thoughtfully selected based on what is most beautiful in the garden that week.
Are ateliers suitable as gifts?
Yes, ateliers make a thoughtful gift for anyone who enjoys flowers, creativity, and meaningful experiences.
Gift certificates are available when ateliers are open for reservation.
