Calla Lilies are usually thought to have more of a contemporary elegant line but it does also depend on the style of the bouquet as well as the flower used.

Roses are the favourite flowers for many and can be tied in an elegant style - adding gorgeous ribbon or accessories to your bouquet can also give an elegant feel - find a style that you like that's most important.

Calla lillies are really expensive compared to roses. Consider your budget. The florist I am using is a wholesaler and she gets a dozen roses for $13 and calla lillies run $6 a stem. It made me change my mind from calla lillies to roses!! I think both are classic and you can't go wrong with either for an elegant bouquet.

Great choice... i love nearly every Maggie Sottero dress... the Grace dress is very elegant, and looks lovely!!

On the site, they have brides testimonies with 3 different brides holding various flowers... i personally like Samantha Marron's Lilies... i think it complements the dress beautifully, it looks crisp, clean, and finishes the dress really elegantly...

...so to answer you question... go with the Lilies... i love them... and will be using Lilies in my wedding...

if you are still undecided, print of the pictures of the testimonies, and ask around at work, or family... or just look at them, to see what you prefer...

...there is also a couple of brides on ebay selling their Grace dress, and a there is one holding roses... so have a look at the picture... to see if you like the idea..

..also think of your colour theme of your wedding...

Congratulations, sure you make the right decision...

Your dress is lovely. It has lots going on. A simple bouquet would be best so as not to detract from the dress. I found this site with lots of brides wearing the same dress. Most of them used roses. To be different, try orchids. I've done wedding flowers for years. Roses are the staple most brides use, but orchids are fantastic. Good luck.

I went for red roses and green leaves in my Maggie sottero dress. Sounds odd but looked amazing x

Lilies are supposed to be a sign of death but I actually prefer them. I had a mix of ivy, lilies and roses in my bouquet. How about taking a picture of your dress with you and going to talk to a florist - if they are good they will be able to advise you and should have sample photos to show you of work they have already done? Otherwise, how about looking through bridal magazines and picking a style you like?

I would go for Roses, as that I what I have with my Maggie dress. I think that having the roses makes the dress stand out more.

I would say roses with lace it would look more elegant. But if you like the calla lillies better- up to you

the web website ought to practice places the position to get the gown. look up Florida and make contact with the save to work out in case you may order it by them. the in undemanding words problem is getting the gown on to you after that's offered. the save received't want to be responsible for shipping it to you. yet basically refer to them.

I think roses would look better with a lace dress.
