If you buy wedding bouquets at floral shops or have florists make custom designed bouquets, you will be charged pretty expensive prices partially because it takes much longer time to make bouquets than regular kind of floral designs. The most ideal way is for you to make bouquets by yourself in order to save money. There are several types of bouquets available in the market. If you are interested in learning how to make bouquets, we can help you acquire practical skills by way of hands on training of person to person instructions. Our school has plenty of experiences not only in teaching how to make bouquets but also actually making bouquets at weddings. Although we offer Wedding Party Floral Arrangement Basic Course which includes a design of bouquet. However in order to join this course, it is necessary for you to complete Fresh Flower Arrangement Elementary Course, which makes you spend lots of time and money. Some people are interested in learning to make only bouquets and they do not want to enroll in lengthy course which is expensive. Due to this kind of situation, we have established Wedding Floral Design Bouquet Course which is a brand new course. The total lesson fee to complete this course is $178 including flower materials. It takes about two hours to make one bouquet. And you will learn three kinds of bouquets in this course. Therefore you need six hours in total to complete this course. Since it is kind of hard work to complete one bouquet, we usually teach only one design a day which means students must come to the classroom three times UNLESS otherwise agreed upon between school and students or approved by school as a special case.

California Flower Art Academy offers a variety of classes from Fresh Flower Arrangement to Dried/Silk Flower Designs, Elementary to Instructor Course, Beginner to Professional levels, Wedding Floral Decoration to Funeral Flower Arrangements AND European Floral Designs to Japanese Ikebana Arts.
