The sun is shining and the sky is blue: it’s time for a Summertime wedding. For those tying the knot in the summer season, choices for wedding flowers are endless.
So whether you’re trying to add a splash of pink to the room or brighten up the photos with a bit of yellow, there’s guaranteed to be the perfect flower out there for everyone.
Here are the 9 best flowers for a wedding in the Summer.
Dahlias
The best thing about dahlias is the sheer amount of choice you get when it comes to colour. These gorgeous flowers bloom in pink, orange, white, yellow and even bicolour to bring to life a white dress.
Dahlias are known to represent travel and adventure, which may just be the perfect reason to pick them.
Iris
Iris generally grows in purple, white, and yellow. This flower symbolises royalty and promise, so is perfect for a traditional wedding.
Complete with a delicate scent, it’s bound to make your wedding reception glow.
You should note, however, that iris is best used for decor or added as a subtle accent among other flowers.
Poppy
Poppies are fantastically elegant and will add a touch of glamour to any wedding. Contrary to popular belief, they don’t just grow in red. Poppies are also seen in purple, white, and blue.
Poppies make for a beautiful pop of colour in tabletop arrangements and go well together with tulips, gerbera daisies, and anemones.
Zinnia
Zinnia means ‘thoughts of friends’, which makes this flower perfect to use in bridesmaid’s bouquets.
It grows in bright colours such as red, green, orange, pink and yellow and is great for making bouquets look full without over-spending.
Feverfew daisy
The feverfew daisy is available July to October so makes for a fantastic summer flower.
The bloom represents protection in one’s life and health, similar to that made in wedding vows for a romantic touch.
A bouquet of these daisies fits in well with rustic or barn-themed weddings.
Wattle
This flower is extra special as it is completely native to Australia and is described as looking like ‘yellow fizz’. Wattle is symbolic of unspoken love, and are often used as fillings in wedding decoration.
Tuberose
Tuberose is grown in blue, white and orange hues and forms a trumpet shape. Its star shape makes for a fantastic addition to bouquets and decorations.
Phlox
Phlox has a mild and sweet fragrance which is great if you want to avoid overpowering scents on your big day.
It represents the union of souls, so it is obvious as to why this flower is perfect for a wedding.
It is often used as a filler to add length to bouquets.
Bouvardia
Bouvardia flowers are star-shaped and grow in delicate red, pink, peach and white colours to add a pretty touch to any bouquet.
For the ‘less is more’ effect, carry a bouquet of bouvardia down the aisle. Alternatively, use as an accent in a bouquet of other common flowers.
