Flowers

labor day weekend wedding??

What kind of flowers would be good for a Sept. 4. 2011 afternoon wedding.

I like soft peachy pale colors mixed with a little green and pale pink. We wanted peonies or ranunculus but neither are in season. Does anyone one have any ideas? 

Thanks! ;)

    Are you using a florist?  Tell them exactly what you said here and see if they can give you that look with in-season flowers.

    actually you can get both peonies and rannuculus in sept. I have deep pink peonies,red,orange and white rannuculus in my cooler now. Find a florist who chas the expertise and resources.Get exactly what you want for your bokay and don't worry about the cost of your bokay.Adjust everyone else's flowers to fit your budget.

    Thanks! One florist told me they were in season and another told me no. So i got worried.

    I'm also having a labor day weekend wedding!!  I was going to do DIY flower arrangements.  I was looking at fiftyflowers.com to order them.  Peonies are available for September but I was wondering how they would look.
