Wedding flower help?

Large callas only come in one color - white (ivory, white flowers are not really white)

The colored callas are "mini-callas". Even in the mini category there are variations in size.

Perhaps you could carry the large callas. Depending on the style of bouquet you choose (this could be done in several ways) you could augment the large callas with smaller white ones or add a soft color with a few minis.

I would still suggest that your ribbon match the skirt of your dress. Otherwise, all people see is the ribbon coming down the aisle.

The bridesmaids could carry a smaller version of your bouquet done with mini-callas. And I would suggest the ribbon on their bouquets be navy like their dresses.

Adding another soft color would give a little more interest to the bouquets. Suggest: pastel pink, peach, yellow.

Tip: Callas are easily tinted.

Happy planning!

I had a strapless gown and carried white callas. My bridesmaids wore mocha (the pic doesnt look mocha, but they were) and carried pink callas. I was really happy with how it all looked.

Im not really sure what color champagne is, but maybe something in the yellow/gold or peach/apricot category would work? Then you could carry white/ivory ones. I like the idea of having the same flower in different colors for the bride and bridesmaids.

Whatever you decide, calla lillies are gorgeous, you cant go wrong!

Your options here are limitless. Check with your florist to see what types are in season for the time you get married. Some flowers are more readily available (also less expensive) and hold up better in different seasons than others.

Personally, I would keep the calla lilies as your bouquet and give the bridesmaids a different flower. If you want to stick with callas, then maybe go with a different color than yours. I believe they come in yellows and pinks too.

I've seen bridesmaids with navy/blue dresses carry bouquets with multiple colors in them (deep pink, yellow, blue/purple and the green foliage) and it looks amazing.

Good luck!

If you look at the second row, first picture, you'll see a gorgeous bouquet of deep orange callas that would work beautifully with your color! For the maids I would mix the deep orange with an ivory cala or even ivory roses instead. Keep going with the link, there are tons of suggestions and I'll bet there is something there you can use.

For cute table ideas - look at the picture next to the bouquet - it's a candle!

I'm doing the same type colors in my wedding and using large callas for my bouquet but to make the color POP in all the bouquets i'm using some blue hydrangea for color and some ivy in mine for a nice contrast of color. You could also use blue hyacinth for a really nice color.

I think it'd look really nice if you carried a somewhat large calla bouquet, and the bridesmaids carried slightly smaller calla bouquets.

I think a smaller version of your bouquet with navy ribbon tied around would be beautiful!

Congrats on your upcomming wedding. Remember to enjoy every moment...it goes by just way to fast to not enjoy it! :)
