What will you learn in the workshop?
Our Wedding Craft Workshops are designed to cover what every bride needs for her wedding. We have great project ideas that will save you money!
We bring you creative and unique ways to plan a more memorable, meaningful, & personalized wedding. Check out Gabriela’s expert tips for a fabulous wedding!
By connecting with friends and trying something new, you'll tap into your natural creativity. The workshops are very hands on and participants walk out with a completed project. We always demonstrate the techniques at the beginning of the class. Bookings are essential as we are often fully booked well in advance.
We only take a maximum of 12 participants per workshop (the minimum are 7 participants). If you know of any friends, colleagues, neighbors, family members, brides, bridesmaids that would like to attend, make your own group! Invite them to this great workshop.
We limit the numbers to ensure that Gabriela can give the participants enough personal attention. Learn about the beautiful things you can learn how to make for you special wedding!

MAKE YOUR WEDDING INVITATIONS

First Class:
During the first day of the course the focus will be on how handmade paper is made and understanding the materials we will use in the process.

Students will make paper in groups utilizing basic paper-making methods and different natural elements such as: flowers, fibers, seeds, etc. They will make their wedding invitation, their response card and their thank you card. They will then concentrate on their wedding invitation. Students will also learn about the components of a wedding invitations set. Students will have an opportunity to discuss ways to fold and embellish their invitation and how to use decorative materials.
