i'm a big fan of all whites and greens for bridal stuff, regardless of wedding colors (and don't worry, in florals, green is a neutral). if you want color, there is no such thing as a teal flower, so you'd need something that was an accent color. since teal is fairly bold i'd personally err more on the side of something soft (peach? light yellow?) or just stick with whites - they are classic.
I didn't pick an accent color, but I am open to one. It seems like coral is the most popular. It's a spring wedding. I guess I don't really know the style, the venue is sort of Tuscany themed. Not looking for something old timey, more of a moderny style.
I...wouldn't. Teal and coral are both highly saturated, bold colors. You want something that is actually complimentary, so something bold with something soft, and things relatively close to each other on the color wheel. teal looks great with a soft peach or blush though.
You don't NEED an accent color but it's a good idea so everything isn't teal. What I'd do it google image some combos "teal and peach wedding" "teal and light yellow wedding" "teal and navy blue wedding" and just see what catches your eye. There's no right or wrong answer - just personal taste. You want two bold colors, go for it. You want all white, do it up.
You may decide to go to your florist with two options (e.g. peach and yellow) and see what flowers they could do (they usually have a big book organized by color). Go with whichever ones you like better and fit your budget.

I thought complementary colors were opposite each other on the color wheel? I agree that teal would look good with a soft peach or blush.

Because they are
OP it might just be a good idea to get on Pinterest and type in "Teal Wedding", I am sure you will be handed myriad options to chose from. In terms of what you chose to go with teal, you may consider your theme and venue a little more carefully, as that will help you determine note only color, but also type of flower. For example if you are getting married in a garden you may want lush flowers like peonies or hydrangeas, if you are getting married in a rustic barn lavender or babies breath may make sense, but if you are doing a modern hotel ball room maybe you want sleek calla lilies. The possibilities are endless
If this interests you - though it is rather bold - the square complements for teal are deep purple, rust orange, and golden yellow. I did this in my wedding and it was gorgeous.

Re: Teal Wedding Colors.. Flowers
Do you have any accent colors? What time of year is your wedding? What's the style of your wedding (e.g. funky, elegant, retro)?
Some ideas with lots of flowers to choose from:
- coral or peach
- soft pink
- light yellow
- white and grey (obviously flowers will mostly be white)
- navy blue

These are my two favorite teal wedding photos. It looks like they're using touches of green and orange/coral in one and white and blush in the other.
