Flying object closeup at DVinfo.net

Maybe a silly question, but we faced a little problem shooting one scene for our little movie...
I wanted a bouquet flying through the air in slo-mo. But, then we realized that there's no chance we can shot this in closeup. It moves soooo fast, we just can't catch it with the camera! There must be some trick how can you shot a closeup of object flying through the air? Maybe you have some ideas?

not sure how your shoot going to be frame but just a suggestion. have you tried shoting on blue matte with the bouquet hanging on a string and move the camera instead of having the bouquet flying.
