I just asked a question about flowers and colors that would accent orange cala lilies…What do you think of this.. Instead of putting more flowers around the centerpiece which will be Orange Calla lilies, what about having the orange callas as the centerpiece with candles around them and maybe bright yellow and bright red flowers [...]
