Wedding bouquet of lilies
The lily flower has long been loved and revered by many peoples. His story is mysterious, as is himself. The Greeks and Romans believed in its divine origin from the milk of the beautiful Juno. The French endowed it with royal grandeur and placed it on the arms, emphasizing the high morality of the ruling monarchs. The ancient Jews believed that the paradise flower of a lily was not defiled and retained snow-white purity even during the fall of Eve.
Weaving this fragile and at the same time majestic flower into the bride’s bouquet is considered a manifestation of exquisite and delicate taste. To decorate wedding events with lilies, making up all kinds of compositions from them, means to wish the young family pure love, healthy offspring and respect for each other.
So say professionals
Florists claim that the lily was simply created to participate in the festive wedding ceremonies. This is the second, after the rose, flower in popularity, which the masters gladly include in their work, using inflorescences, cut flowers and petals for this.
However, you should take into account the features of lilies:
- a pleasant, but strong smell, which surrounds young people and guests in the fresh air with a light wave, can cause dizziness in the room. Either limit the number of colors in the compositions, or use odorless selection varieties;
- throwing off bright pollen, the flower is able to spoil the wedding dress or table setting. As a precaution, experts recommend removing stamens or decorating places of contact with napkins;
- considering that the lily flower has a large inflorescence, one should not use its excessive amount in the composition, shading the beauty with smaller flowers and details.
