Insurance Aid
In most situations, flower shops and event studios are required to have some form of liability insurance. Whether working in a flower shop or on location for big events, it is a best practice to cover any potential of injury or damage that could happen to your staff or property. FlowerSchool New York is happy to share the information for an Insurance broker whom we have closely worked with in the past.
