Floristry is one of the most satisfying and rewarding careers. Everyday is different, from decorating fabulous wedding venues to delivering seasonal bouquets for special occasions. Read some of the fascinating journeys and stories of students that we have had the pleasure of teaching over the past 10 years.
Yes! The Floristry Career Course is aimed at beginners who are completely new to floristry or perhaps have dabbled with flowers at home but are now ready to put it on a professional level.
Absolutely! Not only will you learn commercial designs to sell in your new business from day one, but we will guide you step-by-step in everything you need to do to set up your own business.
Yes, we offer a range of courses to enhance your skills on completion of the Floristry Career Course. For those who decide to concentrate on weddings we offer two courses, The Wedding Course and The Wedding Decorator - ideal for perfecting designs for the bride and the venue. We also offer Masterclasses - one-day courses that concentrate on a particular topic; from taking better images with your phone, to staying current with ever-changing wedding trends.
Everyone who walks through the door to our beautiful Cambridge venue on the first day is nervous - we expect it! However, there is no need to be, you are going to be with like-minded people and after a morning together you will soon wonder what you were worrying about! We teach in a very relaxed environment with friendly and experienced tutors.
It really depends on you! We have some students who forge ahead and are setting up their business during the course, whilst others take time to practice their new skills and build their business more slowly.
On completion, you have 3 months access to our video library that accompanies the course - encouraging you to practise as soon as you complete the course (much easier to practise sooner, rather than later).
You will be invited to our support sessions; online meetings held regularly on completion of the Floristry Career Course to help support you with your new business.
We are always a phone call or email away if you need more support with anything you have learnt on the course. We also offer 1-1 tuition if you need a bit of extra help.
The venue is beautiful! The teachers have all been brilliant. So knowledgable, helpful and full of great advice. I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in floristry. I cant wait to get started on my journey!
What a fantastic week! Thank you so much Sarah and Emma, I loved every minute. We covered so many topics and learnt so much. It was a great mix of theory and practice. We were spoilt with such beautiful flowers for use in the course too. The course has provided a wonderful foundation for the start of my floristry career.
Absolutely fantastic! I couldn't recommend it more. It was so informative, supportive, inspiring and joyful! Sarah, Emma and Elle were wonderful teachers, answering questions, providing brilliant demonstrations and positive encouragement. The balance between practical hands on and detailed theory was perfect. It's amazing how much we covered in the week. I feel so inspired and much more confident to start on my floristry journey!
Excellent! When you initially sign up for the course it seems like a lot of money, but when you get here its worth every penny. The course is a perfect mix of practical and theory. Although the logistics of floristry feels like a heavy area, it was important to show the reality and I think that's what I like most about the course: It's very realistic. The course is great for beginners and even for people like me who didn't know the name of most plants. I would recommend this course to anyone - Thank you!
After attending a course in 2017 I knew that the teaching would be of a very high standard - and this week exceeded my expectations! I have already started doing some floristry work, but lacked confidence and knowledge to develop further. This course is ideal for anyone wanting to get an insight into all aspects of floristry - and I will return home ready to develop a business plan and focus on the areas fo floristry I'm interested in. But more importantly I will book some future courses so that I can develop my skills and confidence and I know the teaching will be excellent. Thank you to the three of you!!
I have loved this week course. The variety of flower arrangements which we have been taught and the beauty and quality of flowers have been just amazing! This has been the most fantastic week and I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone thinking of a career change or to top up their floristry skills. Sarah and Emma have made it fun, insightful, and we have learnt so many usable skills which I cannot wait to put into practice.
I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who is thinking of changing their Careers. I am looking forward to following my dreams now!
So pleased I picked this course above others! Really competitively priced and especially for all the materials you use and take away at the end of the week. The location is easy to get to. The course is so well prepared and enthusiastically taught. You can tell the tutors love their profession and their experience in the trade is invaluable
Amazing! Couldn't imagine how fantastic this could have been - it's incredible! I have learnt loads. Great tutors, so friendly, fun and full of knowledge. Can't wait to attend another course. Highly recommend. I leave energised and educated."
Absolutely blooming fabulous!!
Great communication from beginning to end. Sarah and Elle are amazing teachers - everything fully explained. Step by step. A wonderful opportunity to learn the underlying basics of floristry to adapt through different designs. A great way to meet likeminded lovely women. Thank you!
It was the happiest, most amazing week. I learnt so much and am so excited to begin my floristry journey. I was this to now be a part of my life and I have the belief now I can do it and know where to start - Thank you!
Absolutely amazing. This course was everything and more! Great way to meet like minded people. Tutors are super knowledgeable and friendly which made learning easier. Walking with alot more confidence and a "starter" skill set. Flowers used were of a great quality and the tools & bag are super useful. Can't thank you all enough, you're awesome!
Honestly, the best thing I've ever done! Everything was explained so well and so much information was given. The choice of flowers was stunning. I now feel ready to start my floristry journey.
