A BIT ABOUT ME

My name is Iryna, and I am a creative person who combines work with my passions. In my free time, I enjoy floristry, creating unique arrangements and décor. I am also passionate about content creation—filming and editing short dynamic videos for TikTok and Instagram. Traveling and exploring new cultures inspire me and broaden my perspective. I love art, modern design, and everything related to creativity.

Favourite flower… peony. It is delicate yet has a strong character. I love it for its fullness, the richness of its shades, and the way it can become the centerpiece of any arrangement.

EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS

I have over 6 years of experience in floristry, including wedding floristry, large-scale event decoration, and designing bespoke bouquets and arrangements. Starting my career as a florist’s assistant, I grew to the position of senior florist and art director of a studio. I have worked with both private clients and corporate customers, which gave me the ability to create décor tailored to different budgets and styles. Additionally, I specialise in balloon design and event decoration for children’s parties, birthdays, and corporate events. My approach combines creativity, attention to detail, and a professional vision.

My floristry experience covers a wide range of areas:
wedding floristry — creating bridal bouquets, arches, and floral arrangements for ceremonies and receptions;
large-scale event decoration, including corporate events and private celebrations;
bespoke floral designs for individual clients, with a focus on capturing their style and vision;
collaborations with hotels and well-known brands, where I worked on seasonal décor and presentation projects;
balloon design for children’s parties, birthdays, and photo zones.
I have worked both independently and as part of a team, which helped me develop strong organisational skills, time management, and the ability to adapt quickly to different tasks.

PREFERRED TYPE OF FLORISTRY WORK

I am most inspired by wedding floristry — designing bridal bouquets, arches, and arrangements that highlight the atmosphere of such a special day. I also enjoy working on décor for private celebrations and corporate events, where creativity can be combined with different styles. Additionally, I take great pleasure in seasonal projects and creating photo zones, as they allow more room for creativity and experimentation.
