"The floral design workshop was life-changing for me! If you have the opportunity to attend, don’t think twice. Do it! Attending this workshop has made it so much easier for me to start a career in floral design. I came to the workshop feeling nervous about my skills and overwhelmed by the thought of venturing into the flower business, but I left feeling so confident.

It was so much more than just learning about flowers and how to arrange them. Pippa is honest and authentic, sharing her extensive knowledge of the entire floral industry. We felt comfortable asking questions, and it was a wonderful opportunity to learn and play with luxurious, quality flowers and foliage in a beautiful venue and atmosphere. I’m still in contact with some fellow attendees. Thank you so much, Pippa!

I’m also still thinking about the delicious food we were served at the workshop.

I am so grateful to have invested in myself with this workshop. It surpassed all expectations. The amount of care that went into every aspect, every detail was so evident. Learning from various industry leaders, working with the best quality and variety of flowers and foliage, and getting to be creative with gentle guidance and encouragement—worth every cent!"
