Don’t wait for someone to send you flowers! Indulge in creative self-love this Valentine’s downtown at Board & Barrel while sipping libations, catching up with friends and learning a new skill. Join us to unleash your floral diva with our Valentine's Day inspired floral arrangement. At the end of the evening, take home a beautiful fresh flower centerpiece you designed, and new floral arranging know-how!
Best of all, we’ll be sharing the love! A portion of each ticket sale will benefit Nourish NC, a 501-c(3) non-profit organization that provides hungry children with healthy food.
Guests will enjoy a wine tasting and (1) glass of wine included with ticket purchase. Additionally, the restaurant will offer a 10% discount on food to attendees if they check-in on Yelp and leave a review with pictures.
Purchased tickets but something came up? You can transfer your ticket to another class as long as you contact us at least 48 hours before the event. Please note we do not offer refunds.
What To Expect
The flower arranging can take anywhere from one to two hours, depending on the complexity and format of the arrangement. Alice’s Table provides aprons for you to wear for the duration of the event. Working with flowers can be messy, so make sure to wear something you won’t mind getting a little dirty.
What Should I Bring?
You don’t need to bring anything out of the ordinary with you - we provide the flowers, vases, and tools you will need to create your arrangement.

Your Host: Trina Coyle
The Kure Beach coquina outcrop is a unique feature on the North Carolina coast and combing the rocks and tidepools for washed up treasure is a favorite pastime for my family. My best find? A Great White Shark’s tooth, it’s huge! When I’m not exploring the shoreline, you can find me in the local library, enjoying the fascinating history around Wilmington or practicing Pilates.
