Opening Wedding Roses

I know there is probably another thread on here somewhere on how to get roses to open, but after a brief search I can't find it.

I have a wedding tomorrow at 11:00 am and I can not seem to get the roses for it to open. Roses have been out of cooler a couple of days and recut today and placed in reasonably warm water and they still do not want to open.

Please!!! if any of you have any ideas or other methods I can try please post them. I would hate for this bouquet to have all closed roses in it. There are other flowers like peonies, stock and hypericum.

When i get my roses from the wholesaler, I completely submerge the roses in a tub in warm water for about 2 hours, and cut the stems under water. They open beautifully!

Another great product for opening ANY tight blossomed flowers is made by John Henry corp. It is caled FM budmagic. I can get in super tight roses (almost to the bullet stage) and use Budmagic.....by the end of the workday.....most are almost halfway to 3/4 of the way open.
