Friday Flowers: Purple Calla Bouquet
I recently met with a delightful bride-to-be who was in love with the simple yet dramatic elegance of a bouquet that I'd created this past May for one of my clients named Kenya.

That's beautiful. How many callas are in it?
ReplyDeleteHi there!
ReplyDeleteI used 40 purple mini callas to create this bouquet.
Thanks for the comment/question!
Did it come out pretty big? or is it smaller?
ReplyDeleteIt was on the smaller side. If you want a bouquet on the larger side, you'll need 50-60 stems. Please note that when you use more than 40 callas, the bouquet's handle becomes pretty fat.
ReplyDeleteI hope this helps : )
what would you typically charge for a bouquet of 40 mini callas?
ReplyDeleteIt really depends on the season and the specifics of your particular event day needs. For a quote, email me all of your details. My email is Info@ArielYve.com.
ReplyDeleteBest,

What Variety of Purple Calla Lily is this
ReplyDeleteThanks
These were schwarzwälder callas that I tinted a lighter purple...which resulted in this rich plum/purple color. Since true purple callas weren't available the week of my client's wedding, I had to get creative to give her the look that she'd been dreaming of.
ReplyDeleteIf you show this picture to your wholesaler or florist, they should be able to source true purple callas for you.
Best of luck!

Purple is such a rich and royal color. Good idea on tinting the schwarzwalder callas.
