From Alison…
I created this book as a step-by-step guide for wedding and event florists who started their business because of their passion for flowers, but need to improve their skills beyond floral design in order to book clients, turn a profit, and feel proud of the business they run.
I hope readers will walk away with confidence in their ability to book clients who value their work and run a profitable business that brings them joy.
You can turn a profit AND create beautiful designs your customers will love!
I want to especially thank the folks who contributed to the creation of this book:
Robin Avni, my wonderful and thoughtful editor who kept my voice, but made it even better!
Andrea Leksen, my uber talented designer who brought the book to life with her typography and image selection.
Magnolia Photographie, for the fantastic cover image.
Four of my favorite female photographers in the Green Mountain State whose work is included throughout these pages:
And, of course, my publisher, Travis Rigby, of Florists’ Review and Wildflower.Media—thank you for asking me to write this book!
It’s truly a dream come true (or perhaps, better stated, it’s a “goal come true”) to have a published book to share with florists around the world. I cannot wait for you to see it and I look forward to hearing what you do with your business once you read it!

With so much love, appreciation, respect, excitement and straight-up-joy from me to you,
Alison
