Every bride would love to have her favourite flowers at her wedding and in her bridal bouquets, but picking flowers that are in season can save a lot of money. Of course, flowers can be flown to your wedding destination from almost any part of the world, but you'll pay extra for it. Here is a list of wedding flowers that are in season for spring and summer.
If youβre unsure of what flowers are in season at the time of your wedding date, meet with your florist to discuss your options. Florists have a wealth of experience and will be able to give you plenty of ideas that you may not have thought about. They also know which floral combinations work best together; colours, shapes, smells, etc and so you will get the best selection for your wedding.

Using one type of flower for an entire bouquet can be really beautiful and mixing this trend mixed with many different flowers like peonies, dahlias, anemones and Billy Balls looks so fab, particularly when you stick to one striking shade by Heather Z Photography.
