Whether you’re stepping into larger-scale events or refining how you already work, this workbook gives you the tools, insight, and structure to run your event work with confidence and clarity.

Included: Trusted Supplier & Resource Lists

One of the most valuable parts of this workbook is something florists rarely share — my personal supplier and resource lists, built over years of hands-on experience, trial and error, and trusted industry relationships.

You’ll gain access to:

- Recommended flower wholesalers who     understand event work

- British nurseries and small-scale growers

- Sundries and floral supply suppliers

- Prop hire companies and specialist fabricators

- Essential florist kit — what I take on-site and behind the scenes, with guidance on sourcing

- These are the resources I actually use — shared to save you time, money, and mistakes.
