Calla lilies are stunning and elegant flowers that provide an excellent theme for sophisticated weddings. Calla lily wedding decorations have become so popular over the years that there are now many ways to incorporate this beautiful flower into your wedding theme.
Let’s Start at the Beginning
One of the first things that your guests will see of your wedding is your invitation. You can easily incorporate your calla lily wedding theme into your wedding invitations. There are many commercial wedding invitations available with an arrary of designs based around the calla lily.
You can also purchase calla lily motifs if you are thinking of making your own wedding invitations.
Wedding Flowers
I’ve worked with many couples that have had a desire to use calla lilies as their wedding flowers. Some of my brides chose to mix just a few calla lilies with other flowers while others have choose to only use the calla lily. Whatever you decide, both options can be totally stunning.
The calla lily is a real statement flower and because of this works well when used on it’s own. I’ve created bridal shower and handtied posies made solely of calla lilies and I have to say they look absolutely amazing.
One of our most popular bouquet designs is the calla lily shower bouquet. Bridesmaids often have a handtied sheaf of calla lilies so that they are slightly different to the bridal bouquet. Flower girls also look very cute with a large single calla lily stem decorated with a coordinating satin ribbon bow.
It really is esential that you have calla lilies in your wedding flowers if you have chosen the theme of calla lily wedding decorations.
Size
The small calla lilies are an excellent size for buttonholes, which can be personalised with accessories to fit in with the rest of the wedding flowers.
The smaller calla lilies are also really easy to bend and create curves, which works really well for one of our low table centrepieces. Here you can see them twisted around the inside of a large goldfish bowl. Not surprisingly, this is one of our really popular table centrepieces.
I also love these small calla lilies when grouped together and placed on the top tier of a wedding cake. I often arrange them with delicate strands of beargrass tipped with tiny beads.
Large long thick-stemmed calla lilies are perfect for tall wedding centrepieces, which look elegant and are full of impact when guest enter the reception room.
The large calla lily also makes a stylish yet simple pew end when decorated with a coordinating satin ribbon bow.
Calla Lily Colours
Another great reason for choosing calla lily wedding decorations is this flower comes in a wide range of colours including: white, pale pink, deep magenta, burgundy red, purple, yellow, orange, lime green and a deep purple which looks nearly black.
Table Accessories
You will be able to find many different calla lily wedding decorations including favour boxes, place settings, candles, jewellery and cake accessories that feature calla lilies. One thing you can be sure of is you won’t be stuck for choice if you are planning a calla lily wedding theme.
