Foam or silk calla lilies

Posts: 179 Forumite
Does anyone know any stores that have good quality silk or foam calla lilies? They will be the main flower that we have, I was just in hobbycraft and was really disappointed by their ones. The roses were brilliant though. I think I'd rather see them in store than online, but if anyone has bought these online then I would appreciate your experiences.
What do you think about white if you are wearing ivory? I've been leaning towards cream and whatever colour my sister picks for her dress.

Not sure as we didn't have cala lillies, but we got good silk roses from dunelm mill.0

I went for latex cala lillies as I couldn't find any decent silk or foam ones. They're for a submerged centrepiece though which will magnify any minor frays, joins etc so I needed them to be excellent quality. Got them from Ebay, if you want the seller details PM me and I'll send them over

Not until August next year, but TBH, we have been planning for over a year already, and I'm ready to start making things and getting really organised
