When Wedding Royalty Combine Their Talents for an Exclusive Workshop - the Results Are MAGIC
To be surrounded by blooms, talent and a beautiful community of fellow floral lovers for two whole days... now doesn't that like a dream? It surely is when you're learning from Kiana Underwood of Tulipina and Anthea Studio for a workshop like no other. Complete with an editorial shoot and two stunning Ines Di Santo dresses and a farewell dinner for the books—the entire event was all captured by Jose Villa, allowing us to experience it, too (sans the heavenly smell of blooms).
Anthea Studio held this spring the most emotional workshop in Rome with Kiana Underwood, Tulipina and the world-renowned wedding photographer Jose Villa. Anthea Studio is a team composed by three young and dynamic Italian floral designers, their vision is fresh, contemporary, dynamic and creative.
They work on destination weddings and luxury events throughout Italy. Provided with a strong technique learned in years of study and work, they aspire to melting different arts together, driven by a lot of passion and curiosity. 22 students and passionates of flower design came from all over the world to attend the workshop with Kiana. Two days surrounded by flowers and beauty, at Antico Borgo di Sutri, a location in the countryside around Rome.
The first day Kiana made two of her iconic arrangements: in the morning, one small centerpiece using pin frog and in the afternoon one bigger, on large scale. All the students that attended the workshop made amazing arrangements with Kiana supervision and had the privilege to get their works photographed by Jose Villa. At the end of the first day Anthea Studio held a welcome dinner: a dream in light blue and pink colors, an heavenly atmosphere, created by the three Italian floral designers.
On the second day Kiana held a lesson about hand-tied garden style bridal bouquet. Then the best part of the workshop: working on an editorial photo shoot with the model Anastasia Arteyeva and the photographer Jose Villa. She wore two dreamy dresses made by the talented Ines di Santo, for two different photo shoots. At the end of the second day, the farewell dinner on a long table decorated with all the arrangements made by the attendees during the workshop and a cloud of bunches and flowers on the ceiling created by Anthea Studio.
