Cont. René van Rems' Wedding Symposium

Day two began with a lecture/demo on the Scepter style bouquet.  "Derived from the walking stick, a floral scepter is a stylish and chic accessory which creates a fashion statement.  The scepter can be trimmed with clusters of flowers, foliage and ribbon."

René begins with the Oasis bouquet holder and a Lomey tube.  http://sona.oasisfloral.com/products/lomey_design_systems/lomey_columns
