About this Event
A Creative Way to Celebrate Valentine’s Day
The Valentine’s Day Floral Arranging Class is a warm, creative way to celebrate love, connection, and thoughtfulness through flowers. Designed around the spirit of Valentine’s Day, this workshop is ideal for couples looking for a meaningful date night, friends celebrating together, or individuals who want to create a heartfelt, handmade gift for someone special.
Rather than a traditional night out, this class offers a shared experience that is personal, memorable, and hands-on. Whether you attend with a partner or come on your own, the atmosphere is social and welcoming, making it easy to relax, connect, and enjoy the process of creating something beautiful.
Beginner-Friendly and Open to All
This workshop is beginner-friendly and suitable for ages 15 and up. No prior floral design experience is necessary. Every step of the arranging process is guided clearly and thoughtfully, allowing beginners to feel confident while still offering depth and inspiration for returning students or flower enthusiasts.
The focus is on enjoyment, creativity, and learning in a low-pressure environment. Participants are encouraged to work at their own pace, ask questions, and enjoy the shared experience of designing alongside others.
A Fun and Social Group Experience
The Valentine’s Day Floral Arranging Class is intentionally designed as a fun and social group activity. The room is set up to encourage conversation, collaboration, and connection, making it easy to share the experience with your date or meet others in the class.
This is a popular choice for date night because it combines creativity, learning, and time together in a relaxed setting. It is also perfect for those who want to create a meaningful, handcrafted floral gift that carries personal intention and care.
Hands-On Instruction with Master Floral Designers
Students receive personalized instruction from the master instructors at the Cass School of Floral Design, who bring years of professional floral design and teaching experience to each class. Instructors demonstrate techniques step by step and circulate throughout the workshop to offer guidance, feedback, and encouragement.
Workshop size is intentionally kept small to maximize learning, interaction, and enjoyment. This ensures that each participant receives individual attention and leaves with a strong understanding of the design process.
Learning About Flowers and Their Care
Beyond creating an arrangement, students will learn about flowers themselves. Instruction includes floral botany, how flowers grow, and how seasonality affects availability and design choices. Instructors share insights into the history of floral design and how flowers have long been used to express love, celebration, and care.
Students will also learn where to buy quality flowers, how to forage responsibly, and how to select blooms that work well together. Practical flower care tips are woven throughout the class, helping students understand how to extend the life and freshness of their arrangements at home.
Floral Design Techniques, Trends, and Opportunities
The workshop introduces foundational floral design techniques such as balance, proportion, color harmony, and texture. Students will learn how professional designers approach building an arrangement and how thoughtful design choices elevate the final result.
Instructors also touch on current floral trends and discuss creative and professional opportunities within the floral design world. Whether your interest is purely personal or something you may want to explore further, the class provides insight and inspiration.
