I'M READY TO feel this way!

The skills that I learned at the retreat influence my work every time I design flowers. From sourcing beautiful flowers & foliages to intentionally designing artfully inspired work, the skills that Katie & Jenny shared will impact not only my designs but my business as a whole.

Katie & Jenny have given me confidence when approaching my designs. Color transitions, textures & shapes were never things I felt comfortable with. After the retreat, I feel so much more confident when approaching my designs & have started pushing myself outside of my comfort zones.

roots & blooms

Not a single question was off limits-from pricing to sourcing of flowers, they were so open & honest. They had such a gentle teaching style, guiding us on our own path. Instead of showing us exactly how we should make a bouquet or an arrangement, they really let us experiment & led with a gentle hand.

WHY TRUST US?

When we started in the floral industry over eight years ago, we truly felt like we were out on our own — and no other florists were willing to share how they built their businesses, or how they approached design. It took us years of trial and error to get to where we are now — a thriving floral business with our own studio, store and hundreds of high dollar weddings under our belts.

We have such a passion to take care of other aspiring florists. We want to share everything we know and everything we have learned over the years, so that you can approach your art and business with confidence.

Every arrangement, bouquet - or anything I make really - has been impacted by going to The Retreat. For me, it was the first time learning about the basics of floral design so I still apply that to everything I design!
