The Best In-Season Wedding Flowers For Each Month of The Year

Wedding planning can often feel like a puzzle, with each piece needing to fit just right. One essential piece of this puzzle is choosing the right wedding flowers. Not only do these blossoms add beauty and aroma to your special day, but selecting in-season blooms can also be a smart, cost-effective choice. At J. Morris Flowers, we pride ourselves on guiding couples through the vibrant world of wedding flowers, ensuring your day is as breathtaking as the love it celebrates.

Spring Wedding Flowers

As nature awakens, spring brings a bounty of wedding flowers, presenting a variety of colors and textures suitable for any theme. Astilbe, with its feathery, dreamy blooms, becomes a perennial favorite, paired with the sleek elegance of tulips and calla lilies. Rice flowers add a charming and delicate fragrance that enhances the overall floral arrangement.

We recommend weaving these springtime favorites into every aspect of your decor, from stunning bouquets to stunning venue arrangements.

Summer Wedding Flowers

Summer weddings glow with an array of vibrant and colorful flowers. Garden roses bloom with a classic beauty, while scabiosa and ranunculus offer a touch of whimsy. Sweet peas, with their delicate fragrance, can add a nostalgic and romantic layer to your arrangements. Embrace the season's abundance by using these blooms in creative ways, from bouquets that dazzle to centerpieces that capture the essence of summer.

Fall Wedding Flowers

Fall brings a palette of warm and rich colors to your wedding, with flowers that embody the season's heart. Chrysanthemums and dahlias stand out with their vivid hues and intricate petals. The soft textures of bunny tails and the rustic elegance of pampas grass can add depth and interest to your floral arrangements. These autumnal treasures can transform your venue into a cozy, inviting space that reflects the season's beauty.

Winter Wedding Flowers

While winter may offer fewer floral varieties, the options available are no less stunning. Orchids exude sophistication and elegance, while ranunculus and freesia can bring brightness and charm to any arrangement. Anemones, with their striking contrast and delicate petals, offer a unique beauty that can enhance the magic of a winter wedding. 

Despite the season's challenges, there are ample opportunities to create breathtaking displays that embody the spirit of winter.
