Calla Lily Bouquets? Opinions please

Shelley, on May 15, 2012 at 4:48 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 10

FH and I are not really "flower people", but we do want real flowers, and I happen to love calla lilies. I also did some research and I love the symbolic meaning associated with this species of flower.

I was thinking that my BM could hold 4 lilies each(of course their stems will be wrapped and I will add bouquet jewelry), and I will hold 23 calla lilies.

Opinions please, if you used these flowers I would love to see pictures

    I'm using Calla Lilies for my whole wedding. As of now I don't have the bouquet made but I will post it for you once my wedding takes place in Sept. What is your color scheme? My second flower is going to be the Delephium since my main color is royal blue. So my plan is to have those two together to bring in the royal blue white and silver color scheme together.

    I'm using peonies, dahlias, and picasso calla lilies. The picassos are the ones with the purple on the inside (purple is our main color). My bouquet will be the only one to have the picasso in it and the bridesmaids will have an all purple calla (along with other flowers) and the groomsmen will have an purple calla as a boutineer and my FI's boutineer will be the picasso. I included a pic of the picasso calla lily. We are kind of using it as a "theme" our cake topper is calla lilies and our toasting flutes and serving set match. The picasso calla lily is also in the background of our invitations. I love them!

    Mine would be asiatic lilies and white mini calla lilies for mine and my MOHs bouquets along with the corsages for the MOB, my youngest sister and MOG. The guys (FH, FOB and BM) would have the mini calla lilies for their boutonnieres

    We are doing single Calla Lillies ... the ones that are extra large, not the small ones.

    I used cala's. I loved them!!! I think you need your BM and odd number of flowers so it looks round. The mini calas are small. Order at least a 16 in stem. I wish my cala lilies would have been bigger.

    Keep in mind that the mini or posey callas are very tiny. Even 10 of them together is about the size of my fist.

    Here are some arctic white callas. If you're only using four of them, these are great!!

    Here is a pic of an all calla bouquet in white. I am also putting in a link for DIY if you want to make it yourself.
