Holly Chapple runs this online school from her farm and winery in Waterford, Virginia, and the wedding material is the core of it. The flagship class, Gathered + Styled, was filmed on the farm during Flowerstock and comes with the actual stem counts and design plans from real weddings, which is rare in floral education. The catalogue also holds sessions with guest teachers of the level of Gregor Lersch, Paula Pryke and Francoise Weeks, plus the Alexandra Farms Certified Designer Program for garden rose work.
Best value for a florist who already books weddings and needs bigger mechanics: arches, meadows, foam free installations. Beginners may find the pace fast, since the lessons assume you can already handle a knife and a bucket. Nothing here is graded, so the discipline is on you, and classes are sold individually rather than as one tidy diploma.
