Garden-Inspired Bridal Bouquets & Boutonnières Workshop
May 17, 2026 - 1-5PM
Limited to 4 participants - intimate experience
$399 + taxes
This workshop is designed for creative brides who wish to DIY their wedding flowers and for flower farmers and growers who want to add wedding florals to their offerings.
Hosted in our orchard garden, this hands-on half-day focuses on the art of bridal bouquet and boutonnière design using 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why only 4 participants?
Workshops are intentionally kept very small to allow for personalised guidance, thoughtful conversation, and a relaxed, meaningful experience. This ensures everyone receives individual support and has the space to work at their own pace.
Which flowers and botanicals will we use?
All ingredients are seasonal, sustainably grown, and locally sourced, with the majority coming directly from our orchard garden. Flowers are selected ahead of time based on what is at its most beautiful that week, ensuring the freshest and most inspiring materials to work with.
How often do you offer this workshop?
Workshops are offered in limited numbers each season and are carefully woven into the growing rhythm of the farm.
Because group sizes are small and dates are limited, workshops do not repeat within the same year and often fill quickly. Early booking is recommended.
Workshops are often grouped by season or weekend, making it easier for out-of-town guests to attend more than one experience.
How much is the workshop?
This workshop is $399 + taxes as it is designed as an intimate, immersive experience rather than a large group class. Pricing reflects the abundance of seasonal flowers, the care given to every detail, and the small group format that allows for hands-on guidance and connection.
Pricing is listed directly with each workshop.
How long is the workshop?
The workshop runs for approximately 4 hours in the 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.
This workshop meets you where you are, whether you’re brand new to floral design or looking to refine your eye and technique. Guidance is offered step by step, with space for creativity and personal expression.
Are workshops suitable as gifts?
Yes. Workshops make a thoughtful gift for anyone who enjoys flowers, creativity, and meaningful experiences.
Gift certificates are also available and allow recipients to choose between a workshop or floral designs, depending on what suits them best.
If this feels like the right fit for you, I’d love to welcome you.
