need flower help

2 questions:

1)I'm looking for flowers that my bm can hold as bunches, rather than as a traditional bouquet like in the pic. What flowers other than tulips (which won't be in season) and calla lilies can be put like this?

2) What other colors do calla lilies come in? The girls' dresses will be in lilac so I'm hoping for something that will go with that...Post pics if you have them, please!

TIA!

Amaryllis has a solid stem like the calla lily.
They come in different colors.
I am pretty sure calla lillies are only in white, though.
I found this pic of hydrangea, which come in lavendar. Or this may work with lilacs-

OK- also
Daffodils (but they are yellow)
#1 not sure what the flower is.
#2 Cymbidium Orchids
#3 Iris'
#4 Eucharist Lillies



The 1st flower is grape (purple) hyacinths. I am using them as part of my BM's bouquets.

I know it- I had that pic saved. If our wedding wa sin Spring, I would use lilac, I LOVEEE the smell!
I may use that bouquet with the PG Hydrangea (the green ones).
Good luck!

Full size callas come in white and yellow only. Mini calls come in pink, yellow, red, burgundy, purple, white, and I think a few other colors.
