Calla Lily Wedding Flowers   

The crisp, white flower called Calla Lily is one of the most symbolic of all flowers for weddings. It has a long and meaningful history and it is one of the most popular choices in weddings, especially in Easter or spring. Calla Lily wedding flowers are truly dazzling and are pretty much perfect for use any time of the year. 

The literal meaning of Calla Lily is magnificent beauty. However, traditions in Christianity have spawned several meanings for the Calla Lily. It has become a symbol for the resurrection of Christ. Its shape also gives the idea that it is a symbol of trumpets heralding victory. The shape is very close to that of a cone, thus, the symbol for trumpets. The passion of the Christ is also one of the events being symbolized by Calla Lily. Many painters, sculptors , and other artists in history have included this flower with either the Virgin Mary or also the angel of Annunciation. Among the many things that this flower symbolizes are youth, innocence, and regeneration. 

White Calla Lily is the most symbolic of all, even if there are also pink and yellow Calla Lilies. White has always been the symbol for purity, cleanliness, and virginity. Any blemish can be easily identified if placed in white. White Calla Lilies also symbolize truth and holiness. Other than these, eloquence of heavenly bliss, purity of thought, and unblemished innocence are among the many meanings and representation of the Calla Lily. This is the reason Calla Lily is present in many wedding ceremonies and reception areas. The flower symbolizes these characteristics for the pure love of the bride and the groom. The flower also symbolizes undying love and devotion between the married couple. 

If one has observed, majority of Calla Lily bouquets are tall. The stalks are given emphasis, as they signify elegance and beauty. The green stems are dazzling and truly represents nature. This arrangement can be surrounded by smaller flowers to give the flower itself a centerfold-type presentation. Three Calla Lilies placed in a bouquet can mean the Trinity in Christian traditional weddings. This is one of the most commonly used decorations in altars and churches. 

The symmetry of Calla Lily adds to its grace. It does not have to be in bouquets to be appreciated. Single blooms can be used solo in thin and tall flower vases, and the bouquets may stay at the end of the table. Calla Lily wedding flowers should be used wisely, as an overflow may not result to the symbols that one wants to reflect.
