Video Transcript

" Hi! I am Ruth DeHoyos and I am with Expert Village to show you how to do your wonderful bridal bouquet and a corsage for the perfect wedding. First of all I am going to show you how to do this bridal bouquet; and normally bridal bouquets have odd numbers of roses. This one happens to have seven roses, you can do five or you can do three. It all depends on the budget that they are in and what you want to choose to use. This one has seven and it has some seed of eucalyptus and it has got some… they call it lily grass, but this is beargrass what we are using today. It does not necessarily have to have everything in it but you can pick and choose what you like to put in it. "
