Hello all, our July wedding is soon coming round and I'm starting to panic a little now. Our colour them is yellow and black. I want the wedding flowers to be Lilly as the are my fave flowers but I cannot decide whether the standard Lilly's or calla Lilly what do you think ??

I want white for me and the bridesmaids will have yellow.

meeting with a few florists this weekend to hopefully pick and book them

Idea options for me

Choices for bridesmaids

The calla lilies will be more expensive than the oriental lily if that helps you to make a decision. Callas are notorious for fluctuating in price and can range from £4.00 per stem to £10 per stem from one week to another so the florist has to allow for this when quoting as there is no way of knowing how much they will actually be until she orders them.

The ones in the vase in your 4th photo are stargazer lilies which only come in the pink shading or white with paler pink shading. The top photo of the white lilies are casablanca lilies. The tiger lilies which are availabile in yellow are slightly smaller than these. The orange lilies in this photo are tiger lilies which also come in yellow in fresh:-

And these are the casablanca lilies:-

Although these are all artificial as I don't do fresh flowers anymore but as you can see, the tiger lilies are smaller than the oriental lily. Hope that helps.
