Introduction to Wedding Planning + Styling
With an abundance of picture-perfect weddings on Pinterest and Instagram, it can be daunting to even know where to start. But don’t panic, help is at hand! white+white hosts the ultimate online program for any couple who are planning their wedding. We’ve opened our little white book of suppliers to create an interactive course that will include practical demonstrations and invaluable advice from industry professionals. With a glass of champagne in hand, we’ll give you the low-down on how to plan and style the wedding of your dreams!
Over the eight week course we will focus on a variety of wedding planning elements, including planning, styling, photography and bridal styling. All course participants will also receive one consultation call with our Master Planner.
white+white have launched a half-day intensive workshop course to give you the low down on everything you need to know about a career in events. Not only will you receive invaluable insider tips and advice, you’ll gain hands-on experience in table styling, a myriad of industry contacts to add to your little black book, real-life ‘on the job’ advice, information about running a business and determining your service fees, as well the chance for an internship opportunity with white+white.
All workshops include…
The opportunity for knowledge, learning and inspiration! We hope to give you the foundation you need to set foot on your new career path, create that perfect floral arrangement or start your own ‘little black book’ of trusty suppliers.
Where are they held?
Our workshops are held at Loyal Hope of the Valley, a gorgeous heritage-listed hall and Lightspace, an urban warehouse. Both located in Fortitude Valley, it is the perfect central location to host our creative energy!
