Ideas for Calla Lilly Wedding bouquets and Centerpieces

calla lilly wedding bouquets "Calla" doesn't mean "white" anymore, though. And even brides who love tradition are going nuts for the deep hues of mini-callas in shades like mango, gold and burgundy.

Here are some interesting treatments we're seeing:

Callas and bare-branch arrangements combined (tall, imposing, great for Asian-tinged or contemporary autumn weddings).

Callas are costly, so they're used more sparingly than some other blooms. Expect to pay almost $5 a stem for the big, traditional kind, even if you're buying in bulk. Mini-callas come cheaper: close to $2.50 or $3 per stem.

Partly due to expense, callas tend to draw DIY'ers. They're relatively sturdy. They're available all year round. They enjoy a long vase life, and they're simple to prepare (especially compared to fussy, wilt-prone flowers like hydrangeas, tulips or shasta daisies).

But keep in mind that mini-callas — the kinds with color — are just that. Mini.

More than a few brides ordered their callas online ... and were a little shocked when they found those mango beauties on their doorstep smaller than they imagined.

The sky's the limit when it comes to color choices for minis, but if you need really big blooms for things like tower vases and centerpieces, you'll want to stick to white (minis come in white too, though, so be careful).

calla bouquets Tight mini-calla posy bouquets with a romantic rose collar (white callas ringed by pink roses, for example).

Mango mini-callas with black magic roses. Combined with hypericum berries, it's a super-dramatic fall look.

Calla lilies sure have legs when it comes to wedding trends. In fact, they're not really a trend ... they're more of an institution.

Why? Because calla lilies express major directions in fashion ... and weddings. The body-conscious wedding gowns, the emphasis on fine fabrics, the movement toward a stripped-down look in wedding cakes  ... all these sit square in the center of the modern white wedding. Right next to our favorite bloom!

As a result, callas appeal to brides who prefer to push the envelope,   who love all things traditional ... or as we focus on here,  who are brave enough to do-it-yourself!

Autumn wedding bouquets with calla lilly

Autumn is visually a glorious time of year when you can feast your eyes on the changing colours from green to amber, yellow, red and orange. The temperatures might be dropping and the days getting shorter, but this seems to help intensify those deep shades, as the foliage dies. If you are lucky enough to have a wedding during this picturesque time of year it would be a shame not to take advantage of these beautiful colours and use them to make a beautiful autumn wedding bouquet.

Do not try and use unseasonal flowers for your wedding bouquet, this will give you added expense and effort in trying to get a summery or spring feel to your wedding. The bouquet should incorporate lots of greens and deep browns and flowers that are readily available at this time of year. Trust your imagination and come up with some truly memorable combinations of colours for your autumn wedding bouquet. The calla lily bridal bouquet is the best gifted flower bouquet.

It is a nice idea to choose seasonal shades for your wedding, to create a stunning visual effect.

» Spring ¡V White, paler shade of pinks, yellow, blues, lilac, and greens

» Summer ¡VRich Vibrant colors such as yellow, orange, red, pink, gold, hazy purple and green

» Autumn - Shades of brown, yellow, gold, cream, russet (reddish-brown), burnt orange and red.

» Winter - Forest green, strong dark red, russet, orange, gold, and snow white or ultra modern like silver and ice blue.

The Victorian influence is also becoming more popular. Flowers with inert meanings and romantic, soft colored blooms are also becoming a rage.

Autumn Beautiful Calla Lily Wedding Bouquet

All fresh flowers are beautiful, but few offer the elegance and versatility of the calla.

Maybe you've thought of designing your own wedding bouquets, centerpieces or altar arrangements. In that case, the calla can provide all the style, color and beauty you've ever dreamed of.

One simply has to glance at a white calla to think of weddings. It occupies a strangely rich space that's both classic and totally modern. Fortunately, beautiful calla lily bouquets are easy to fashion yourself.

This beautiful bouquet, combining full-sized and mini callas, offers great visual depth and dimension. To create it yourself, place five full-sized white calla lilies in the palm of your hand. Arrange the flowers into a rough arrow shape, with the middle flower being the tallest, and the rest gently sloping down. Now continue to fill out the arrow shape by adding eight mini calla lilies in pink, red, or yellow.

To finish the bouquet, gently close the palm of your hand to bring the stems together and tie off with floral tape. Complete the look by wrapping the stems with a wide satin ribbon of your choice.
