On a warm evening at beneducevineyards, Ladies Night: Bubbles & Bouquets pairs local wine with hands-on floristry led by Bornstad Blooms owner Carley. This three-hour drop-in workshop invites guests to choose from a curated selection of fresh-cut regional wildflowers, arrange either one large bouquet or two small ones, and finish their work in a mason jar to take home. The event runs from 6–9pm and includes a complimentary glass of wine for guests 21+.
Unlike a formal class, the format is relaxed: pick stems at your own pace, lean on Carley's tips for proportion, focal flowers, and stem lengths, and leave with a display that fits your space. Key features include a communal flower table stacked with blooms, clippers and twine for building structure, a jar-ready base for water, and a tasting atmosphere provided by the vineyard setting. The natural element here is the flowers themselves—locally harvested wildflower varieties and seasonal stems rather than imported supermarket bouquets—so color palette and texture shift with the calendar.
This experience stands out because it blends craft and conviviality. Bornstad Blooms is on-hand to demystify arranging—how to strip leaves, when to cut stems, and how to stagger heights for visual flow—while the vineyard provides the slow, social backdrop: low light, wine in hand, and room to experiment. It’s not just a craft night; it’s a way to engage with the seasonal life of the region through plant material and small-batch wine.
Practical notes: the session is for adults 21+; reservations grant one glass of wine, and drop-in between 6–9pm lets participants arrive on their own timetable. Bring a camera for close-up detail shots and wear clothing you don’t mind getting a little pollen on. If you want a more structured lesson, arrive earlier while Carley is available for one-on-one tips.
Why visit? If you’re in the area for wine tasting or looking for a low-key, creative night out, this pairing delivers tactile satisfaction and a take-home memento. For locals, it’s a reliable way to support a small floral business and enjoy an evening at beneducevineyards; for visitors, it’s an intimate alternative to standard tasting-room programming. Whether you’re a beginner or have arranged flowers before, the event offers approachable instruction, high-quality local blooms, and the relaxed company of like-minded people. Walk away with a mason-jar centerpiece and a refreshed sense of how seasonal stems can transform a room.
Groups are welcome — this is a fun option for bachelorette parties, meetups, or a casual date night where conversation trumps technique. Keep stems in fresh water when you get home, recut every few days, and trim spent blooms to extend vase life. Expect to leave with a centerpiece that lasts one to two weeks with care.

Beneduce Vineyards is a New Jersey vineyard hosting a range of public and ticketed events focused on wine, food pairing, and live entertainment. The property stages guided wine tasting reservations that showcase five handcrafted wines, with an option for six wines paired with locally sourced cheese and salumi. Each tasting includes a branded etched logo glass as part of the experience.
