1. Dahlias
Dahlias are a classic wedding flower that just so happen to come in the prettiest autumn hues.
Anyone can identify a dahlia. Their look is completely unique and they provide one of the most spectacular blooms in the flower kingdom. They come in countless sizes and colors, but each is distinct with their spike-like petals and vibrant colors.
The Victorians even used the dahlia as a symbol for an everlasting bond between a couple—could there be a more perfect wedding flower?
2. Roses
Roses, the world’s most popular flower, coming in just about every color imaginable and expressing a vast range of emotions—most importantly— true love.
As Emma Goldman famously said, “I’d rather have roses on my table than diamonds on my neck.” But who says we can’t have both!?

Ranging from white to light pink, to deep burgundy,astilbeis another wedding favorite (and yes, again, we are very biased).
These unique blooms add a stunning wildflower look to any bouquet.
These beautiful flowers are not only a favorite of ours, but also butterflies far and wide! If you’re looking for a truly authentic Cinderella moment at your wedding, astilbe is a must-have.

Arguably, one of the most beautiful blooms around—the ranunculus is a wedding-season favorite!
