calla lily wedding invitations

Calla lily wedding invitations are a popular form of a flower invitation. It's rather ironic, however, that the calla itself is neither a lily nor an actual flower. The trumpet shaped blossom is actually made up of modified leaves and is recognized worldwide as a timeless symbol of purity, exuding an air of sophistication in every setting. The Calla has long been a favorite of artists, connoisseurs and brides. You may recognize the image of a lily from its use in many paintings, specifically works of art from Diego Rivera, for example, The Flower Vendor. Calla lilies grow in warm tropical climates and while being somewhat expensive, they make an impressive visual, worthy of your respect. They are also noted for having a long vase life making them very popular for use in elegant, sophisticated wedding arrangements. The lily is widely cultivated for ornamental and cut flowers. You will often find calla used in bridal bouquets or table centerpieces at weddings. The flower is noticeable for its showy white, yellow, pink and purple flower clusters.
