The Goal of this Course One of the most delicious things about floral design is the inventiveness and freedom which is so much a part of it. However, a firm understanding of the recognized guidelines and fundamental principals of floral design must be mastered in order to provide the designer with a solid foundation from which to spread her/his creative wings. The goal of this course is to demonstrate fascinating techniques, methods, principals and theories of floristry as they pertain specifically to wedding floral design, in addition to offering inspiration in the form of innovative and creative approaches and ideas. This intensive, comprehensive course will explore design theory so that, when combined with your creativity and imagination, this base of formalized knowledge will enable you to create arrangements which have wonderful structure, a universal sense of appeal, and deliver amazing visual impact - in other words, quality arrangements which look sensational. But don't let the word 'theory' make you 'creative types' uneasy. Floral design is first and foremost an art form, and we will treat it, appreciate it, and approach it as such in this course. Therefore, although it is important to understand the theory of good design, this course is not about memorizing endless rules of design theory. After all, what is art if it isn't about expressing your own personal taste and sense of style, and allowing your eye to create a work which it naturally finds pleasing? Behind every breathtakingly beautiful bridal bouquet or arrangement lies an understanding of some rather 'mechanical' procedures which you will learn in this course. For example, properly processing and conditioning flowers or greenery so that they remain at optimal freshness during their long hours at the center of attention is critically important in creating an exquisite design. It is also essential to have solid knowledge of the proper methods of bouquet construction if you are to design bouquets which show well and are durable. Having a firm understanding of the various wiring and taping techniques for wedding bouquets, corsages, boutonnieres and other arrangements will give your designs strong support and good shape, ensuring that they maintain the look you intended for them to have, and that they remain well assembled from the time they are delivered to the wedding right up until the moment the music stops playing and the last guest leaves. An exceptional designer will also always want to pay very close attention to the finishing details; there are many possible extra little touches which can transform an ordinary bouquet into one which is absolutely awesome. We'll teach you how to create pretty stem wraps, lovely bouquet collars, and exquisite handle treatments - because when it comes to wedding floral design, the details make all of the difference!   The Tools & Knowledge You Need to Succeed To be a wedding floral designer it is essential to have the technical knowledge and skill taught in this course. However, while some courses strive to make the art of floral design seem overly complicated, this course has been developed to do precisely the opposite. The objective is to show you how really simple all of the techniques, processes, methods, and procedures actually are once you understand them, and how very attainable the skills to become a proficient wedding floral designer are when they are presented in the right manner. With the instruction provided in this course, anyone with the desire to learn wedding floral design can be creating beautiful flowers for weddings in just a short time. We boil down all of the theory, techniques, methods and approaches so that they are easy to understand, to utilize, and to apply into your own design work. Better yet, this course will provide you with the solid foundation of knowledge and understanding to create designs of your own, and to have the ability to design the flowers you see in photos. With the fundamentals you will learn in this course, you will never be dependant on someone else to provide you with instructions or 'recipes' for making floral arrangements. This course gives you the tools you need to be able to design independently.
