Anyone Know What Flowers are in This Bouquet?

I found this picture and love the bouquet but am not sure what flowers the large white flowers are. It looks like it might have orchids scattered throughout but I really like the larger flowers. I'm meeting with my florist next week and I'm sure she'll be able to tell me but I wanted to do some research prior to meeting with her. Hopefully ya'll can help me

I think they're Gardenias...?

I don't think they are gardenias, but I have no idea what they are. They look gardenia-like, but I've never seen gardenias that large. They almost have an appearance like a mum, but I'd be guessing.

Your florist should know what they are. Take a picture with you to the appointment.

To me it looks like one of the dinner plate dahlias, but I wouldn't take my word for it.  Definitely take the picture to the florist, they should be able to identify it.

In the meantime, since you want to do research ahead of time (kudos, by the way), maybe look around for other large blooms that give the look you want so you have a list of substitutions you could possibly make if something like this would be too expensive or not in season.

Looks like a dahlia to me, but a very distinct variety.  Kudos for finding something totally unique.
