Description
Hanging installations are the pieces couples save on their boards and the pieces that make florists nervous. They need the right structure, the venue’s approval, a clear weight figure, flowers that survive hours without water, and a team plan that keeps everyone safe while working at height.
The Hanging & Suspended Floral Installation Guide takes you through the whole job in order. It shows you what to ask the venue, what to record, how to estimate weight and stems, and how to plan the install and the dismantle. Safety decisions are framed the way they should be: checked and approved in writing by the venue and a qualified rigger.

Who it is for
Wedding florists and floral designers ready to quote and deliver larger installation work, and stylists who want to plan suspended pieces properly with the venue and their team.
After you use it, you will quote installations from real numbers, walk into venue conversations with the right questions, and run install and dismantle days that are organised, calm and signed off.
