The Most Popular Wedding Flowers for Summer

Not only is summer a great time of year for a wedding, it also has some of the most beautiful and freshest flowers. With so many beautiful flowers blooming during the warmer months, you’re sure to find one (or a few) that fit your wedding colors and aesthetic perfectly. Here are just a few of the most popular wedding flowers for your summer ceremony:

Sunflower

Sunflowers are one of our favorites for an outdoor summer wedding. These popular wedding flowers instantly brighten up any table or decor with their cheerful yellow color, and their long stems make them versatile for wherever you need them during your wedding. Sunflowers are also one of the less costly flowers so you won’t have to worry about going overboard with your budget.

Roses

Since roses thrive during warmer weather, they make a great option for your summer wedding flowers. They come in a large variety of colors so you can even choose a few to mix and match in your bouquet, his boutonniere or other wedding decorations. They also open up and blossom more in the heat so you won’t have any wilted roses if the sun is beating down on them.

Orchard

A tropical flower such as the orchard is a great match for any summer wedding with their bright colors and sweet scent. These popular wedding flowers originate from the equator so they can stand up to the heat of an outdoor wedding and warmer temperatures as well. Their long stems also have multiple blooms so you can buy less and get more!

Peonies

Peonies may just be the most popular wedding flower of them all, and with good reason! Their soft color and ruffled appearance make them the perfect romantic flower. They also come in a variety of colors such as pink, white and yellow so you can easily pair with your own specific wedding colors.

Gardenia

Gardenias have one of the sweetest scents that your guests are sure to love. Their white color can match effortlessly with any wedding decor or other colors you have as well. The popular wedding flowers are also stemless so you can get creative with your gardenias such as floating flowers for table centerpieces or a hairpiece accessory. However, gardenias can also easily bruise so be careful how and where you place them so they can look their freshest.
