Lilies are a striking focal point for a bridal arrangement. The colorful, exotic blooms pop against white dahlias or light pink peonies, creating a rich, textured arrangement. At the same time, the graceful blossoms pair well with greenery, resulting in a minimalistic, modern bridal bouquet to suit an elegant bride.
When shopping for your flowers, we highly recommend choosing seasonal blossoms. For example, if you're planning a spring wedding, opt for a delicate bouquet containing calla lilies and daisies.
On the other hand, a winter event may call for deep red lilies paired with dazzling white roses. Set pink lilies against a backdrop of tropical plants and greenery for a summer bouquet, or choose rich autumnal hues like orange and yellow when saying "I do" in the fall.
You can design lily bridal bouquets to suit almost every theme or color palette. The versatile blossoms mix and match well with any type of flower or greenery, while the breathtaking beauty ensures a stunning final result.
Many couples opt for hardy, long-lasting lily varieties, including:
Calla Lilies
A calla lily wedding bouquet combines minimalistic elegance with classic beauty. The stark white of the petal contrasts beautifully with the dark green stems, making them the perfect selection for a simple arrangement. You may also choose to pair the blooms with punchy dahlias, tropical foliage, or delicate wildflowers for a unique bouquet.
Stargazer Lilies
Stargazers are a superb addition to a large bouquet. Generally, the Oriental lily features a deep fuchsia interior that lightens as it reaches the edges of the petal, though some rare varieties come in dazzling blue, purple, and gold hues.
Daylilies
Daylilies may be one of the more common varieties of lilies, but don't let that dissuade you. The graceful, multi-layered petals often boast contrasting colors and lacy edges, offering added texture and depth.
At The Bouqs Co., we offer both classic and modern takes on lily bridal bouquets. For a wedding bouquet, lily and roses pair beautifully. Some couples prefer the elegant simplicity of an all-white wedding arrangement featuring calla lilies, roses, and delicate jasmine. Others love the graceful, blushing combination of ranunculus, dahlias, jasmine, along with the lily.
Other favorites include:
- Anemones
- Carnations
- Orchids
- Roses
- Eucalyptus
- Peony blooms
- Sunflowers
Yes, you can certainly have lilies! The dramatic colors, eye-catching size, and distinct shape of the blossom make it a vibrant addition to spring, summer, fall, or winter events. They are great for wedding boutonnieres or reception decor. In addition, the florist-shop favorite has a long vase-life, which ensures that your lily blossoms will look bright and fresh as you say "I do."
