Why take a Flower Arranging Class?

For those who want to move beyond "grocery store bouquets", a structured flower arranging class for beginners is the perfect starting point. We don't gatekeep here - we share all we've learned from our 8 years of experience designing Fairfield's favorite flower arrangements. Plus, you'll be designing with premium flower stems you can't get at the supermarket! (Think heirloom local Double Tulips, luxurious Italian Ranunculus, and fragrant stems of Sweet Pea!)

When you join a local flower arranging class at our studio, you'll learn:

• Flower Shopping: How to select store-bought flowers for freshness, color, and a balanced composition
• Flower Care: How to condition your flowers for at-home designing and a long-lasting arrangement
• Vase Preparation: Our go-to trick for structural support in your arrangement - without flower foam

What to Expect from a Fresh Flower Bar Flower Arranging Class

When you sign up for our Flower Arranging Class, you sign up for an evening of:

• hands-on experience designing a lush floral arrangement - and knowledge that will last!
• real-time adjustments and tips from your expert instructor
• laid back socializing with fellow flower lovers
• an insightful Q+A session to get all of your flower questions answered
• light refreshments, such as Prosecco, sparkling water, and individual charcuterie boards
• creativity, inspiration, and expression
  

Our classes are designed to be single-night sessions, rather than a weeks-long course, for easy comprehension of the class material. Classes are typically 90 minutes-2 hours long, and are held on weeknight evenings.

Our Flower Arranging Class is less about perfection and more about easy, enjoyable learning. It's an opportunity to decompress, enjoy a "Sip and Bloom" atmosphere, and leave with a lush, jaw-dropping arrangement to enjoy for days to come.

What makes Fresh Flower Bar's Flower Arranging Classes unique?

Located in the heart of Fairfield, our floral design workshop space is built for community.

1 - Detailed Instruction + Real-Time Adjustments

We don't just give you a bucket of flowers and say, "have fun!" We teach you about the flower varieties you're working with, how to care for your arrangement to extend its vase life, and our exact formula for a jaw-dropping arrangement every time you design.

2- Intentional, Artful Design

To us, floral design is a deeply personal art form. We have never been the type of florist to grab one of every flower and color from the cooler, throw it in a vase with some greenery, and call it an arrangement.

We take color theory seriously - we know how greatly the correct color combination can elevate someone's mood, or create a sense of peace and harmony in the home, or celebrate the spirit of a loved one. We understand that some flowers just don't complement each other, and it's finding the right combinations of ruffles and petals and blooms that makes all the difference between a traditional floral arrangement, and a spectacular floral arrangement.

Our style is modern, lush, and flower-forward. We design with a minimum of 5 flower shapes and varieties, and intentionally curated color palettes for dynamic compositions.

3- Long-Lasting Learning

Lastly, we want you to learn. We are passionate teachers of our craft, and we can happily talk about flowers all day long. We want every student who leaves our class to go home with not only a stunning arrangement, but lasting knowledge of floral design, and to feel empowered to begin designing flowers at home.

In addition to your floral arrangement, we send you home with a detailed printout with a synopsis of the class, our tried-and-true floral recipe, and a link to our Amazon Storefront with essential tools of the trade.
