The Elegance of a Calla Lily Wedding
Copyright © 2005, Helen Marakis

Imagine having a wedding so beautiful it leaves your guests
breathless. Imagine a ceremony so sophisticated and refined, that
for years to come, others will consider it the standard for
wedding elegance. You can have such a wedding by letting the
natural loveliness of a calla lily serve as your guide.
Since the introduction of the beautiful calla lily in the second
half of the 19th century, this trumpet-shaped blossom has been a
favorite of artists, connoisseurs and brides. With its long, pure
lines, and delicately shaded centers, calla lilies are the
embodiment of sophistication. Indeed, in the language of flowers,
calla lilies symbolize sophistication, beauty, and purity. What
more appropriate flower to grace your wedding?
Whether a single long-stemmed blossom is chosen or a dozen, calla
lilies form an elegant bouquet for any bride. And their
simplicity will add, rather than detract from the bridal gown.
For the bride that loves calla lilies but wants an elegant crown
that will last for years, the perfect choice is a regal wedding
crown of meticulously hand-crafted porcelain callas. It would be
a stylish wedding crown that will be cherished for years.
The Portara Gallery online carries elegant porcelain calla lily
wedding bombonieres (favors) that are embedded with five Jordan
almonds - a wedding tradition representing 5 wedding wishes for
the bridal couple: fertility, health, wealth, happiness and
longevity. The almonds are encircled in organdy and silver,
making a lovely background for the porcelain calla lilies that
adorn the favor. These bombonieres are not only beautiful, but
useful! And why not use your imagination and add them to candles,
bridesmaid’s baskets, ring-bearer pillows or even on the wedding
cake?
A traditional Orthodox wedding ceremony or a modern exchange of
vows – whatever style wedding you chose will be enhanced by the
soft light of candles. You can choose wedding candles decorated
meticulously with porcelain calla lilies. The candles may be
plain or very ornate, but in a traditional ceremony, they
represent Christ as the Light of the World and light the path to
the new life the bridal couple is beginning together.
Reception tables covered with pristine white linen and enhanced
by beautiful bombonieres at each place setting create a
sophisticated setting for your guests. Imagine their delight as
these small works of art become lasting mementoes of this special
occasion. For a special touch, tie a calla lily favor to the stem
of each wine glass or to the back of each chair with an engraved
name card.
Your wedding can be unforgettable for not only you, but for each
of your guests when you surround them with the stunning beauty
and grace of calla lilies. Whether you chose the simple beauty
of fresh lilies or the lasting elegance of porcelain callas, your
wedding will create a lasting impression of your style and
refinement.
