Roses

Calla Lilies

• Calla lilies are said to represent magnificent beauty. They are relatively large flowers and have a minimal, modern look. As a bridal bouquet, a few of them are typically gathered together and tied with an attractive ribbon without the addition of other flowers. While calla lilies enjoy a modest popularity among modern brides, calla lilies were the most popular flowers for bridal bouquets in the 1920s.
  
  

Tulips

Peonies
