Freeze the ice pack. DO NOT FREEZE THE FLOWERS. This is a good assignment for the Maid-of-Honor, as it is not difficult, but IS important to the life of the flowers.
As soon as possible after the event (usually Monday morning), pack the flowers for shipping: (PAMPERED BRIDE SERVICE customers: Call Fed-Ex for pick-up time).
Place frozen ice packs in cooler shelf (they cannot be loose as they will crush the flowers).
Take flower(s) OUT of the plastic bag(s) and wrap loosely with supplied tissue paper, (attendants flowers, boutonnières, or corsages should be wrapped individually).
Put name and address on each flower bundle with the supplied label(s).
Add ribbons, fabric, invitation or other mementos and SEAL in supplied Ziploc bag. Fill the empty areas of the cooler with supplied shredded up newspaper to prevent unnecessary movement during shipment.
Put cooler back in our "BRIDAL BOUQUET BOX" and secure with tape and supplied shipping labels.

IT MUST BE SENT BY OVERNIGHT DELIVERY!
Please assign someone to this task. Again, the Maid-of-Honor is a prime candidate.
We will be anticipating your flowers or special mementos!
