Florist drove flowers to Copps Coliseum himself Continued from p.1 four large arrangements and one centerpiece within an hour, by 4 (p.m.). We got there (at Copps) around 4:30-4:40 (p.m.)." Song and Lim were given access to the stage after 5 p.m. and had approximately 30 minutes to set up the arrangements on the stage. Doors at Copps Coliseum opened at 6 p.m. for the show. "It was kind of a rush, but it worked out well," Song said. When the couple arrived on stage, floral arrangements were already there, but they had been told the flowers weren't to the stage manager's liking, and so they were swapped for the ones from Flower Deco. Song said he's just lucky he was able to get the order done, as flowers are usually ordered well in advance. "Fortunately, we had the flowers they like and we had lots of flowers in stock, so we were able to do it," he said. The flowers he used were hydrangea, orchid, roses, tulip, calla lilies and gerbera. Song made the arrangements with one other designer who works at the store and drove the flowers to Copps Coliseum himself. The couple was also given tickets to the show for them and their two children, who are 15 and six. He said he enjoyed the show. "I think this show was really good for her," Song said of his 15-year-old daughter. "She's in high school and she's wondering what subject she's going to take in university and how she's going to live. I think it was really helpful for her. She said she cried five times."
