As well as being an interactive and interesting experience that can be shared with the bridal party, the workshops {held at their Boxpark site} allow Brides to retain creative control over their desired wedding decor and keep costs down. To ensure minimal hassle in the days before the wedding, Columbia Creative also offers the option to source the necessary wholesale flowers at reasonable prices, allowing Brides to collect their freshly bloomed flowers from the store at a convenient time.
So, for those Brides & Grooms celebrating within a ‘dry’ hire venue or looking to keep their budget within sight this is a fab idea! So if you like the sound of it, or think it would make a great bonding tip with your bridal party then you can find the full delicious details for each workshop below!

DIY Wedding Flowers Consultation
During a 45-minute private consultation, Columbia Creative defines the exact floral requirements and designs a plan to best fulfill them, discussing an extensive range of flower options as well as quantities to maximise effect and minimise waste for couples looking to create their own flower arrangements. Following insights from the workshops on the desired floral look and level of professional involvement required, Columbia Creative provides a menu of services to support couples – from simply ordering the flowers to adding the finishing touches at the venue. Where sundries are required, Columbia Creative can provide these at very competitive prices, saving on costly bulk purchases at the market.
Price: £25 for 45-minute consultation.
All materials are included in the price. Brides looking to book two or more workshops will receive a complimentary 45-minute private wedding flowers consultation.
