How to Add Lilies to a Wedding Arrangement

"Ok, now we're going to be placing the lilies in our arrangements. Just count them out and make sure they're evenly spaced. Again, you want to use the most open blooms that you have available and don't forget, again, flower food. And let me turn this around for you. Best thing to do is to cover the rim first and then start the top. Because you kind of want to make ball shaped arrangements. Again just kind of repeat kind of get in between the spaces. Like if you have two flowers here, you want to put a flower in between. Again, just feel your way through it. Also, you'll have some buds on the lilies. These also are very handy. So you want to keep them also in the arrangement, they add a little more texture, depth. And they will eventually open up, too. This way it kind of gives it more of a growing kind of feeling to the arrangement. So next we'll be doing the roses."
