ranunculus are like mini peonies or roses, but I've heard they are $$$ and very delicate

Re: peonies question
I tried for both of the above as well and had no luck with the florists... Sept is just not a good look for those lush soft spring flowers! What about hydrangea?
Edit: I did ask my florist about the more ruffled looking roses and she said they were like $20 a stem! Then again I wasn't thrilled with her so it might still be worth looking into...

Re: peonies question
There is a flower called a ranuculus that looks like a cross between peonies and roses. The petals of the flower are very delicate.

Re: peonies question
peonies are best in June I wanted them also and I am getting married in July. My florist recommended that I don't take them b/c he couln't guarantee freshness. Some will sell them to you but I like his honesty
