Floristry Masterclass

Immerse yourself in the art of floral design over two inspiring days at our studio in Nantwich, Cheshire.

Duration: 2 Days (3 hours per day) Price: £310 per guest Teacher: Ada Haygarth, The Flower Arranging School


Overview

Step into our welcoming studio for a comprehensive two-day floristry course designed to teach you the core skills of professional floral design. Spread across two 3-hour sessions, this one-to-one masterclass gives you the time and space to truly master different techniques, from delicate hand-tied bouquets to larger statement arrangements and styling.

What you’ll do: Led by Ada—an expert floral designer with years of experience creating breathtaking displays for Film, Television, and Weddings—you will be guided step-by-step through the mechanics and artistry of floristry.

Day One focuses on the foundations and the perfect bouquet. You’ll learn how to select complementary blooms, understand colour theory, and master the professional spiral technique. We’ll also cover elegant gift-wrapping methods, ensuring you know how to present your beautiful creations perfectly for any occasion.

Day Two scales things up as we explore statement vase arrangements and styling. You’ll get hands-on with professional, sustainable mechanics (such as chicken wire and Kenzan pins) and learn how to construct versatile designs that work beautifully for both intimate home settings and larger events.

Throughout both days, Ada will share her industry secrets, current floristry trends, and provide supportive, expert feedback. Whether you are an absolute beginner looking for a creative escape, or an aspiring florist wanting to build a solid foundation of skills, you’ll leave this two-day course with newfound confidence and stunning floral designs.

  • All Materials Provided: A gorgeous selection of fresh, seasonal blooms and lush foliage.

  • Professional Tools & Mechanics: Use of our studio tools, vases, and sustainable arranging mechanics.

  • Your Creations to Take Home: You will take away everything you make across both days, ready to display in your home or gift to a loved one.

Hi Ada, just wanted to say a big ‘thank you’, both Sheila and I thoroughly enjoyed our wedding flower course with you last week. Cant believe I actually came away with my wedding bouquet done, I absolutely love it. Never imagined or thought for one minute that it would be so wonderful, just what I wanted, better in fact. Your hospitality was wonderful, your teaching style just right. Anyway thanks again, we had a wonderful time, really enjoyed ourselves and would not hesitate to recommend you and your course to others in fact I will be doing so with all my friends.

I attended a 3 day course with Ada in January, it was brilliant. She’s a really warm and lovely person, with a wealth of experience and time saving techniques. This course was very informative and good value for money compared to others that I had researched. Ada gave me confidence and reassurance, I’m setting up my business ready to start for Mothers day. Although I’ve already had orders starting to come in for Valentines.

Thank you so much for Saturday. My flowers look wonderful even if I say so myself ! I never thought I could make such professional looking arrangements. My sister and I are interested in the bridal course as she gets married next June and we would like to do the flowers ourselves

Many thanks for a wonderful day. I had a lovely time and am thrilled with my efforts. I hope to meet with my daughter on Sunday and show her my day’s achievements. Your hospitality was wonderful and most appreciated and I just wish I had been able to do the other two days floristry course. I hope to organise that for later in the year, it will give me some more insight and great tips
