“Hello LeAnne:

My name is Ximena and I am having my wedding on 10/17/09. I would like some ideas to be used for my bouquet and centerpieces, I love calla lillies so definetely I want to include them in the decorations.
Thanks for your attention and help.
Ximena.”

Ximena, I created your inspiration board using calla lilies in several colors — all which will look great together — and added a few other flower types as well. You could create your bouquet using just callas in a few different colors, or create them using calla lilies and a second flower type — perhaps the ranunculus. I also included a few calla lily centerpiece ideas for you to check out. I hope you like it!

“Hello,
I am planning an outdoor fall wedding for next year between sept and nov. I live in CA so the weather is really nice that time of year. I will be wearing an ivory gown and my bridesmaids will be wearing a chocolate brown. I am not sure how to pull this off so any help is greatly appreciated!!!!
Teresa”

Teresa, I created your inspiration board with fall colors of burgundy, mustard yellow, flame orange, and chocolate brown — all which look fantastic next to one another! I love the deep fall tones! I think the bouquets would look great made up with burgundy roses, mustard and brown gerbera daisies, orange mums, and accented with the eggplant hydrangea. Then, you could wrap a chocolate brown ribbon around the bouquet stems. I hope you like your inspiration board!

“Hi there,

I am in dire help, and am in need of inspiration! I am having a Tiffany Blue, Chocolate Brown and Ivory wedding and would love to have some flower inspiration.

Thanks,
Diana”

Diana, thank you for the email! I created your inspiration board with several different flower types in brown, turquoise/blue, and cream/ivory. You could do any combination of these flowers! In my opinion, the bouquets would look great made up of vanilla roses, turquoise ranunculus, and the brown calla lilies. For an extra added touch, you could incorporate the ostrich feathers — they are so romantic and beautiful! I hope this helps give you some inspiration!
