Practical Skills
It is important to note that The SA School of Weddings prides itself in hands-on practical courses. We do not just
demonstrate the techniques. Each student must perform the tasks practically as one learns better from physically
doing all the elements. This is where you will gain the experience and the skill set to be able to apply the
knowledge when doing it on your own.
