dramatic, flaring flame orange. If you've decided on calla lily
wedding decor, take a look at some of the colors and ideas that

Bridal Calla lily is the traditional white calla lily. It will fit
into any color scheme, but is especially at home in a black and
white wedding where the drama of its delicately molded blooms
lends a softer edge to the sharp contrast between the main colors.
Decoration idea: If you carried an armful of calla lilies to the
alter, let them serve as the centerpiece on the head table!
Calla Sensation is a rich, golden yellow that perfectly offsets
deep, jewel tones. Choose it for a winter wedding with emerald or
sapphire as the main colors.
Decoration idea: To highlight the calla lily theme, choose calla
lily votive candle holders as wedding favors. Replace the white
votive candle with a shimmering deep gold one, and wrap in a
circle of emerald or sapphire tulle for an elegant accent at each
place.
If your wedding colors are rosy pinks, Calla Elegance is the
perfect calla lily for your bouquets and wedding table
arrangements. The soft, pure pink is almost cotton candy color,
and can add a touch of fairy-tale romance to a calla lily theme.
Decoration idea: Mingle soft pink calla lilies with creamy white
roses in wreaths to decorate the entry doors to the reception
hall. Lay matching wreaths on the place cards table or gift
tables, encircling a trio of white tapers set into molded glass
calla lily candle holders.
For the dramatic bride who dares to go with deep, rich reds, the
Calla Flame lily is a beautiful choice. Its deep persimmon orange
is a striking accent against the emerald green of its foliage -
and against your wedding party colors. This lily is not for the
timid, but it is a beautiful touch in an autumn wedding that uses
the vibrant colors of changing leaves as a theme.
Decoration idea: Use a trio of persimmon calla lilies as the
topper on your wedding cake. Instead of massing fussy flowers
around its base, lay a single, long-stemmed calla lily in front of
the cake, or beside the cake server.
Reverse a black and white calla lily wedding theme with the
striking drama of the Black Forest Calla Lily. One of the rarest
of calla lilies, the petals are a deep, velvety burgundy that
looks almost black. Carry an armful of the slender, graceful
blooms tied with a wide, white satin ribbon, or go for even more
drama by using it in a wedding theme with more vibrant colors.
Decoration idea: Don't overdo the black. Mix with delicate white
stephanotis in table centerpieces to offset the stunning drama of
the rich, deep coloring.
There are literally dozens of other calla lily colors that could
accent or spark your calla lily wedding decor and decorations.
Think beyond white for a twist on the traditional that will make
your calla lily wedding unique.
