Mini calla lily bouquets are always popular at a wedding show, but especially when we use the Black Schwarzwalder variety.  Their deep purple color looks almost black when fresh (the color lightens toward purple as the flowers age), and is striking.  Our bouquet was a simple hand-tied arrangement held together with a small wrap of silver ribbon and black-headed pins.

The long stems of mini calla lilies make for a sleek, elegant bouquet, and also allow us to make some very contemporary centerpieces.  In the second photo below, we've used the same Schwarzwalder mini calla lilies with bear grass and curly willow in an elliptical vase, for a very modern look.
