Flower similar to a peony?

Our wedding is in August and peonies aren't in season during that time. They're one of my favorite flowers because they're so full and pretty so I'm wondering if there's a flower that look a lot like a peony that is available in the summer?

    I want peonies too and am getting married in August.  The florist I am working with suggested garden roses, which I might like more than the peonies.  I think garden roses are a bit more budget friendly as well!
