FDSS's Year End Party - Rolling Good Times was held at the Shangri-La Hotel on Saturday, 28th December 2024 where members and their guests gathered for an afternoon of flowers, food and fun.

To add to the party ambience, the venue was decorated with fairy lights, paper flowers and fans made by members and table centrepieces specially made by Christina Pang, AIFD, CFD.

Packed to the brim, the program highlights included an opening dance by Nite Club Ladz, a captivating and beautiful floral demonstration by two promising Korean young designers,

Thank you, Minsook Song for bringing them in at the invitation of FDSS.

After a sumptuous high tea, it was time for fun and games, a raffle draw which saw many taking home prizes generously contributed by sponsors and an auction of the two designers' floral designs.

The afternoon ended with group photographs and everyone leaving with specially prepared door gifts.
It was once again a sold out and successful event.

Kudos to the committee led by Chairman, Christopher Lim, AIFD, CFD who worked so hard. Many thanks to both members and their guests for supporting and participating in this event organized for the first time in FDSS's 27 years' history. It was an unforgettable and memorable afternoon.
