We've combined two of our flower arranging demos, which are focused on big installations, to offer you the opportunity to book them both as a bundle at a reduced cost.
This is an ideal combination of sessions for people who want to learn the process of creating floristry using sustainable techniques. This is the perfect duo if you are someone who wants to learn more about creating sustainable wedding and event floral displays.
The demos included in this package are as follows. Please click the demo name for full details of each session.
The Broken Arch of Flowers Demo
Large scale floristry is possible for all if you know how to do it. Join flower farmer and florist Georgie Newbery at this new session where she’ll demonstrate creating a fashionable broken floral arch for a wedding or event.
Using only simple sustainable mechanics, fresh garden flowers and foliage, and no floral foam, Georgie will make the arch for you so that you can understand how to do it yourself, or why it costs a good deal of money if you commission a florist to do it for you.
The Flying Arch of Flowers Demo
Sometimes there isn’t space for complicated mechanics, or you want to use your initiative with what you have to hand to make some wow factor floristry, which is where arranging a flying arch can create a stunning look at a wedding or event.
Join florist Georgie Newbery as she shows you how to create a stunning floral arch using beams and buckets and pieces of string as well as lovely flowers and foliage cut straight from her garden.
This is a brand new demo bundle for 2025.
Suitable for:
Enthusiastic flower arrangers and florists keen to learn more about sustainable floristry practice.
Why do a workshop or demo with Common Farm Flowers?
Georgie Newbery has been building her small business growing flowers for sale and creating floristry with material she’s grown on the farm since 2010. She is a Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Floristry Judge, RHS dahlia trials committee member, and Garden Media Guild New Talent Award Judge.
Georgie does not see other flower farmers and florists as competition, but rather as potential colleagues and collaborators. Georgie knows that it is in her interest to teach her students everything she knows. And she spends a great deal of time talking to other flower farmers and small business owners and learning as much as she can around the subject of running small businesses and farming gardens and small acreage.
There are no secrets held back from you at a Common Farm Flowers workshop.
