Planning a summer wedding in Edmonton? You’ve probably got a Pinterest board full of dreamy ideas, and flowers are likely near the top of that list. It makes sense. Flowers help set the tone for your wedding. They’re in your photos, lining your aisle, on your tables, and in your hands. They’re not just decoration—they’re part of the feeling of the day.
But here’s the thing a lot of couples miss: the best wedding flowers don’t just look good. They fit your season, your vibe, and your venue. That’s where working with a local florist really matters.
We’ve been designing flower arrangements in Edmonton for summer weddings for years, and if there’s one thing we’ve learned, it’s that no two weddings are the same. Some couples want soft, romantic blooms. Others go bold and tropical. Some want wildflowers that look freshly picked. And many want something totally different.
Whatever your style, here’s what you should know about choosing flowers for a summer wedding in Edmonton.
Summer is one of the best times of year for wedding flowers. Alberta and BC growers are in full swing, and that means we get access to gorgeous, fresh blooms that haven’t traveled far to get here. They last longer, look better, and help support local flower farms.
When you’re working with seasonal flowers, you’re also working with nature, not against it. You’re not forcing peonies into a January wedding or importing delicate roses in peak heat. You’re letting the season lead—and that always creates something special.
Peonies, garden roses, lisianthus, cosmos, snapdragons, and dahlias all shine in summer. They’re full, soft, colourful, and photograph beautifully. If you’ve never held a just-cut dahlia in your hands, you’re in for a treat. It’s hard not to fall in love.
We’ve worked with just about every kind of venue—from backyard weddings in the suburbs to elegant downtown hotels to countryside barns—and summer flowers just work. They bring life to every corner.
If you’re getting married outdoors, we often recommend flowers that feel a little more organic. Loose bouquets with movement. Soft grasses, flowing greens, mixed textures. Something that catches the wind and feels like it belongs right there in the field or under that big Alberta sky.
For indoor summer weddings, we can turn up the drama a little. Rich colours. Sculptural designs. Statement installations that guests can’t stop staring at. That’s the beauty of summer: you can go in so many directions, and it still feels right.
Trends come and go, but some are just too good to ignore. This year, we’re seeing a lot of couples leaning into colour. Bright coral. Citrus tones. Lavender and soft blue. Even unexpected combos like rust and pink or butter yellow and deep plum.
We’re also seeing more mixed textures. Dried elements with fresh blooms. Delicate stems with bold, architectural greens. It’s less about perfection and more about personality—which we love.
And as always, personal touches are having a moment. A flower from your grandmother’s garden. A ribbon that matches your mom’s wedding dress. A special bloom that reminds you of where you met. These little details turn your flowers into something more than pretty. They turn them into a story.
We make it easy to send flowers across Edmonton. With just a few clicks, you can place an order online and have a beautifully crafted bouquet delivered to your recipient’s doorstep. Our intuitive website lets you choose from a range of floral designs, add personalized messages, and select delivery times that suit your schedule. Plus, our same-day flower delivery in Edmonton ensures you never miss an opportunity to make someone’s day brighter.
Not all florists in Edmonton work the same way. Some just take orders. Others, like us, work alongside you to understand your vision, your priorities, and your budget. We ask about your venue, your dress, the mood of your day—not just the colours you like.
We’ll help you figure out what flowers work with your date and what arrangements give you the most impact. We’ll show you what’s blooming locally. We’ll tell you what’s heat-resistant (yes, that matters). And if you’re stuck, we’ll suggest combinations you might never have thought of.
This is what we love to do. It’s why we’re here.
Summer weddings in Edmonton are something special. Long days, golden light, warm air, and that sense that everything is in full bloom. Your flowers should feel like they belong in that moment—like they were always meant to be there.
Whether you’ve got a clear vision or just a few saved photos, we can help you pull it all together. From bouquets to ceremony arches to reception flowers, we’ll create pieces that feel like you.
We book a limited number of weddings each summer so that we can give every couple the attention they deserve. If you’re planning your summer wedding, let’s talk soon.
