The plight of my beloved anemone bouquet *more pics*

OK so I heard from my florist-
(He is so sweet)

Basically they are going to do EVERYTHING they can to get the anemones shipped from California for my wedding bouquet (how dramatic!) but there's no gurantee. So we're looking at 50/50 chances.

Soo I have to think of a backup option, which is actually a lot of fun.

So here are a few backup options I'm thinking of...I'd love your input!

**I will add more as I find some
At this point, the bm's are going to have clusters of pale pink roses agains their pewter dresses

So here are all of my bouquet options so far
1) my anemone/sweet pea-first choice!
2) LOVING the feathers-pink/white
3) cream peonies w/ostrich feather (they may not be in season either though)
4) stephanotis, the most classic bride bouquet

The first choice is amazing, so hopefully that works out for you. The second one is beautiful too, but the first one Im in love with.

Thanks girls. I keep looking for more pics, but seriously NOTHING compares to my 1st choice.


My 2nd choices would be peony or ranunculus but I'm pretty sure they're out of season too

Here's some calla lily options too...


I feel like all of these flowers are amazing, but none of them make me swoon like the first one..

peonies and runucullas are out of season however my florist thinks he's going to be able to get the runucullas for my wedding next month. Yours is only a few weeks later so hopefully you can get those.

Good luck!

If #1 doesnt work out #2 is beautiful as well with the feathers!!!

See I LOOOOVVEEEE ranunculas and I think they're the BEST second option, I just don't want to risk my 'backup bouquet' too

Our florist said the anemones are 'borderline' in season..

Thanks!

I actually think number 2 is the best! Im pretty sure peonies are out of season then and I think number 4 is too 'classic' for your hot dress..i just think it won't do anything for your look!

Is it too late to plant a pot of anemones in your house?? jk Those are amazing flowers and I am upset for you that you may not have them! The color is perfect for your dress.

I agree with not doing the peonies bc you do not want to risk your back up bo-k on another flower that might not be available. I do like the feather look with the bo-k too. Ugh so hard! Let me look online and see if I can find any other options.

I love them in the exact order you posted them.

I love the anemonies first
Then that 2nd BoK is AMAZING and sooo unique and different. And then the 3rd one is amazing too!! Then the 4th one is my least favorite out of them all.

That 2nd one is soooo pretty!! If you can't get the anemonies from Cali... I'd soooooooooo go for that 2nd one!! I'm in love with it!!!

I absolutely LOVE peonies, however, they are not in season for my wedding, that was the only thing I can make a decision on.

They are in season now, or July.
