Calla Lilly bouquet HELP!!

Ok girls, I've done a search, and just can't find anything that I want.

Here is my problem:

I have:

1 bride boquet
1 MOH
2 bridesmaids

I want very simple bouquets of lavender calla lillies, BUT, I do not know how to make my MOH's bouquet stand out as different.

I really just want 12 callas in each bouquet, and I wanted the colored ones for mine as well with maybe 24 callas.

How do I make my MOH's different, I was thinking about adding cream callas, but, then it just looks even more different than mine. I do not want to add roses, bc then her boquet looks fuller than mine.

Any ideas?

i put stenopolis (spelling) in mine and nothing in my MOHs. there was also a paler pink in hers. i would just make hers smaller and tell the florist that you want yours the fullest.

mine is the first one:

oh i may have misunderstood your question. i didnt have BMs, just a MOH. maybe you can tell the florist to make the MOHs bigger than the BMs and make your MOHs like a mini version of yours. hope that makes sense.

I had very plain calla lilly boquets and I loved the 'cleaness' of them. I only had 5 callas in each bouquet.

Did you think about maybe putting a different ribbon or something on the MOH boquet?

Here are what mine looked like:

this is EXACTLY what I am looking to do, but with colored lillies...do you think that If I just put a different ribbon on it, that will be enough of a difference??

I would still like to have the same color boquets as the girls, just bigger...

you could put heather or lavender in your MOH bo-k. very subtle, but will definitely show the difference.

I am doing colored calla lilies for myself, and white calla lilies for my girls. My MOH's bo-k will be wrapped with the extra fabric from her dress (which is different from the other girls), and the BM's bo-ks won't.

You dont want to make hers a little bigger?
Maybe add a few more calla lillies to fill it out more

Re: Calla Lilly bouquet HELP!!

I don't think i want hers any bigger, only bc I want mine to be the biggest, but not too big....

i have one of my bm's helping me right now and I think she's feeling a little overwhelmed with all the options I could do...lol...i told her just imagine having these kinds of decisions for EVERYTHING in the wedding...lol
