pref night centerpiece ideas?

thank you for all the ideas ladies...yes, we definetely we will be using the pink roses only...its just traditional and our chapter likes it that way....I like the idea of putting the opened single rose in the bowl, but it makes me nervous, because one year we got flowers before pref night and by the night they looked dead =/
and thank you for the workout pics..the flowers are gorgeous!

Did you keep them in a fridge or a cooler until you had to use them? That should prevent them from looking wilted. Also, if you wanted to do single opened roses maybe you could buy a little extra and replace the really badly wilted ones after the first pref party is over (and same for the second - or however many you have).

I totally agree with keeping the roses in the fridge until you are ready to use them. The year I was pref day head, I kept the roses for pref, bid day and all the ceremonies in the fridge for those 2 -3 days. We did loose a few but most of them came through great. Just don't have the fridge too cold or you will have rosesicles. Yeah, I did that.
