“Hi, I needed help figuring out flowers for my wedding.  I ran across this site and saw the boards and thought you could help me.
I am pretty sure I want all calla lilies, but once again I am not 100% sure.  My colors are lilac, victorian lilac, and ivory.  I am getting married in October.  Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you!!!

Kelsey, I created your board with a few different flower types as well as the calla lilies you would like in your wedding.  You could simply created bouquet using the ivory and purple calla lilies, however it might look nice to add another accent flower.  Perhaps the light purple roses and ivory callas with sweetpea accents and nice ribbon wrapped around the bouquet stems.  Or the ivory calla lilies with a small amount of purple hydrangea as an accent?  Wrap the stems with a ivory ribbon and use lilac colored pins for that extra touch.  You could also create your centerpieces using the ivory calla in a glass vase with gems and the submersible floralytes.  The lighting will make the centerpieces very romantic and the callas look stunning!

“Hi there!  I need help!  For my wedding I really want calla lilies.  I think they are beautiful and unique!  My colors are chocolate brown and an earthy clover green with a hint of ivory and white too.  The reception will be help outside, to give an outdoorsy, romantic feel.  I’m hoping the reception will be casual but sophisticated as well.  Thank you so much for your website, it’s so incredibly helpful!
