Which flowers can I use for my july wedding?

I am getting married in July in Canada, and I'd like to know what flowers bloom end-June/July (too late for peonies?).

Which flowers can I use for my july wedding?
Flowers that are "in season" in July:


Amaranthus ,Asters ,Bells of Ireland ,Blue Cloud, Carnations , Cosmos, Dahlias ,Delphinium ,Freesia, Gardenia, Gladiola, Hydrangea, Star Gazer Lily, Lily of the Valley, Assorted Lilies, Lisianthus, Orchids, Roses, Snapdragons, Statice, Stephanotis, Sunflower, Sweetpea, Veronica, Yarrow, Zinnia





Sorry, but peonies are late May-beginning of June. You will still be able to get them through a florist, but they will be incredibly expensive. For our wedding, my bouquet was all white hydrangea (it had a look similar to an all-peony bouquet). The bridesmaids bouquets were white hydrangea with white dahlias. The groomsmen boutonnieres were white dahlias, my husband and our fathers wore gardenias.
Reply:At mine, I really wanted tulips, but the flower lady was like, no they will suck in July. She talked me into Stargazer Lilies and they were beautiful.
Reply:lillys are nice try that
Reply:Ya, whatever Bety said.... Listen to the Flower pro, that's why she is getting paid!
Reply:As stated in other answers, peonies are generally not available. That being said, occasionally,they are available out of chili, and they are beautiful. We carry a full linen of all the flowers listed in previous answers. We sell directly from the grower, saving you $$$ off of retail prices.
