How to organize a live show step by step

1. Preparing the area
Choose a quiet, well-visible, but not centrally located space. Set up an elegant table with:

Ask the bride and groom to join their hands in a natural, affectionate, yet firm manner. Pour the previously mixed alginate into a suitable container and immerse their hands. It will solidify in about 3 minutes.
