Bouquet Poll (Kinda)

cfibelkorn · December 2009

I just wanted opinions on this idea I came across last night.

Background: My wedding colors are black, white and mint green. I am doing the flowers myself b/c our wedding party is small and it saves me ALOT of money. I wanted to just do something simple like 6 or 7 white calla lilies as my bouquet...then I can across this!

It is a MINT LEAF BOUQUET!

I just thought it was so clever! First off seeing as how my color is mint green, plus it would be really cost effective AND it would smell amazing!

So what do you ladies think? Am I being crazy haha

Calla Lily or Mint Leaf bouquet?

I think that's super cute. Could you put a handful of calla lillies in between the mint leaves? That might be pretty.

I think pops of white would look really good against the mint green color, mini calla lilies would not over power the bouquet

I also think that calla lilies with mint leaves as filler would be really pretty. And, like you said, it would smell great!

And, you could pop off a leaf and chew it to freshen your breath before the kiss!

I think it would look great with calla lillies in it. To me, just by itself, it looks like a head of lettuce.

Yes I think using the calla lilies and the mint leaves would be perfect!

Thanks Girls!

Banana that is funny...and I just might do that (maybe not before the kiss but in transition to the reception)

HAHA Mariah! Now all I can see is lettuce when I look at it! Dang it!

Oh well...after you ladies good advice I think I am going to do the mint as a filler

Also check out bells of Ireland. They are that same color and have a really nice-looking texture that might add to it as well.

I like the mint and white, btw.
