My fiance and I would like to have a black and white wedding...I'd like to have a bold, large white flower with a long stem. Are lilies appropriate for a wedding, or should they be kept strictly a funeral flower. Please keep in mind, we are on a budget and may not be able to afford white roses. Thanks!

Lilies are fine. They are also used on Easter in Christian churches. You can click on the light bulb on the right side of Plan/Arrange for Flowers for a list of various seasonal flowers. Your florist can also suggest what may be available and at what prices.
