Fleur De Lis :: Captured in Florence, Italy

I must admit that the longer I stay away from my native Louisiana heritage. The more intrigued I become with the history, the culture, the symbols, and everything Louisiana. I’ve learn to embrace each opportunity that presents me to visit, even if for brief periods of time.

My earlier days were filled with blur moments, no real interest, and many dreams of what awaited me outside the “little boot” I know as home. My mature years, as they so often are, has become years of revelation. You know: The eye opening experience builders! Things that I once glossed over now interest me.

I remember seeing this funny looking three leaf design everywhere. It was one of those common things that you accepted and never really questioned. If you know me, you know that I’m a total “find out for yourself if you want to know” type of gal. I now know this symbol has been around long before heraldry, but thanks to our European migraters, we may share in its beauty and inspiration.

Lily flower also captured in Florence, Italy

The Fleur-de-lis, which may also be spelled ‘Fleur-de-lys’, means lily flower. A lily flower with three petals that each symbolizes something different, something meaningful. Bibically, it’s a symbol of Holy Trinity. Writers have commonly described these petals to mean faith, wisdom, and chivalry. All are aspects a sound marriage and a wonderful inspriation to designing your wedding day. The outcome will be for more than a wedding day design. It will be a wedding day design that bears heart felt significance.

Say it softly.

Let it roll off your tongue.

It’s speaks romance.

Soft… Dainty… Beautiful…

Classic beauty that can inspire the masses!

How does Fleur De Lis inspire you??
