Default new miltonia buds

I just received a beautiful miltonia plant for my birthday, and it came
to me with several flowers in bloom and several more buds (6-7, on 2 or
3 separate spikes). I moved it into my living room, onto a mantle which
recieves direct sunlight. All of the buds began to wilt after several
days. I thought maybe the mantle didn;t get enough light, so I moved it
into my window sill, since it has been cloudy for the past few days.
The flower shop told me it has been watered once a week.

Any suggestions on how to save this guy?

Thanks
