The crafts that we find today as the most coveted lines of designs are old enough weighing to our estimations which comes from the value they transmits and the level of aesthetic feel they generate.

Calla lily and rose bouquet with blue ribbon?

I REALLY, REALLY need your suggestion!!
My wedding theme color is acqu blue, and so are my bridesmaids dresses. I love calla lily and rose, so I’m thinking to use white calla lilies and different or similar color roses tied with blue ribbon. What color should I use for the roses?
Thanks so much

I think they can make roses in aqua:

Do you have another color besides white and aqua in the wedding? If it’s black there are black roses too:

If there’s not a thrid color and you don’t want to do aqua, I’d go with a light pink or peach rose with the white calla lilies.
