About Faith Flowers

Floral Design Studio

Faith Flowers is a full service floral event and design studio. Our studio, which is modeled after the small European flower shops we visit on our tours, is located in the historic Virginia Highland neighborhood of Atlanta, GA. For over 13 years we have designed weddings, parties, showers, and private events at the leading venues in Atlanta and throughout the Southeast. We are honored to have won multiple industry awards including Best Floral Designer and Best Wedding Decor Design, and we have been featured in multiple magazines including Brides, The Knot, Southern Weddings, Modern Luxury and Flower Magazine. Faith Flowers truly enjoys working with our clients in order to bring their floral and design vision to life.

Flower School

Our Flower School offers a full range of floral design classes taught by our lead designer, Laura Iarocci. Topics include European Hand-Tied Bouquets, Flowers 101, Art of the Compote, Church Flowers, From Your Garden, Grocery Store Flowers and much more. Faith Flowers also offers Master Classes taught by an international line-up of instructors such as Hitomi Gilliam, Joseph Massie, Holly Chapple, Laura Dowling, and the European designers included on our tour. Our talented teachers love working with all experience levels, but we particularly enjoy introducing beginners to the beauty and joy of floral design.

Flower Tours

Faith Flowers leads Flower Tours around the world to learn about floral design in each region. We have led over 20 tours - 7 of which have been our signature tour to the Netherlands and Belgium. In addition, we have taken florists, master gardeners, instructors, and flower enthusiasts to France, Ireland, England, Scotland, Portugal, Vancouver, California and Virginia. The hallmark of our tours are floral design workshops led by local, expert designers and instructors. This approach ensures students learn regional or European techniques often unknown in America. We also get to work with flowers that are not as readily available here. Faith Flowers Tours visit gardens, flower farms, flower shops, museums and other cultural highlights. We orient our tours around special flower events, such as the blooming tulips at Keukenhof, the Chelsea Flower Show, and other seasonal events. Along the way we get to know local designers and make new flower friends. These tours are open to all levels of experience, from the novice to the expert.

Join us on our Virtual European Flower Tour! Experience what it is like to be on one of our in-person tours, but from the comfort of your own home. You will take flower arranging classes with European instructors and you will experience the joy and beauty of European spring flowers. Come tiptoe virtually through the tulips with us!

Anyone who loves flowers will enjoy and learn from our tours!
