"OK, the next step that you would take after you've got the flowers together and the greeneries put in and you start to add some of the interest of non-materials, this is when you can start placing in if say, for an example, she has a seashell that she wants to put in here or if she wants to add a memento from her mother's wedding or that type of thing, you can tuck it in. Once you put them in, the next thing you need to start doing is actually hitting the underneath behind the bouquet with some glue. I use hot glue, it's much easier for me. Some people prefer not to and use the other type of glue that we have there, floral glue. All you're really trying to do is get these to stay. You don't want to put a ton of glue on it, because you have to fill in this top hole that you still have open so you can see all this stuff. So the next part of it is to take and start gluing your pieces in because when they don't, when the walk down the aisle, you don't want them to fall out. And you need to shake and turn it around to make sure that everything's glued in. And the next step then is go ahead and adding your little bling and fun things to it, any mementos, or anything that they want to have and gluing your flowers in."
