See which blooms are in season from a local wedding florist in Holland, MI.
Hello Bride to be!! There's a quiet magic in choosing flowers that bloom only for a short season. Think of lilacs in spring, peonies in early summer, or dahlias in late September. They don't just decorate a wedding, they mark a moment in time.
When you fill your bouquet with lilacs, you're tying your wedding day to a very specific moment in nature's rhythm. Every time you catch that scent in years to come, you'll be transported right back, standing under the arbor, feeling the sun on your skin, saying "I do."
The Beauty of What's Now
As a wedding florist in Holland, MI, I've seen how seasonal blooms don't just make a wedding beautiful, they root your wedding in the present. A bouquet of spring lilacs or a table lined with autumn marigolds doesn't just say "pretty"; it says, "this was our day, our season, our moment."
And that's what makes your flowers so much more than décor, they become a memory trigger, a way to hold this fleeting, holy day in your hands!
One of the biggest questions I get is: "What flowers are in season for my date?"
Here's a general guide for seasonal wedding flowers in Holland, MI:
Spring (April–June)
- Tulips (of course!)
- Ranunculus
- Lilacs
- Peonies (late spring)
- Anemones
- Sweet peas (I think every Bride should have some in her bouquet, they smell so good!)
- Blooming fruit tree Branches (think gorgeous crabapple and cherry blossoms!)
- Calla lilies
- Whimsical white Spirea (the variety is literally called Bridal Veil, I mean come on!)
- Larkspur (one of my TOP favorites, brings instant whimsical vibes)
- Stock (fragrant and lovely, I've never done a wedding without it)
Spring weddings are full of soft pastel colors, fragrant sweet scents, and abundant new growth! It's a dreamy season for romantic, delicate blooms.
Summer (June–August)
- Garden roses
- Cosmos
- Dahlias
- Zinnias
- Foxglove
- Delphinium
- Snapdragons
- Hydrangea
- Feverfew (bring instant wildflower vibes, its a cutey!)
Summer is the season for texture and boldness. Think wild gardens, overflowing centerpieces, and sunset tones.
Fall (September–October)
- Dahlias (peak season)
- Amaranth
- Heirloom mums
- Grasses and seed pods
- Marigold
- Autumn foliage
Fall weddings are deeply textured and soul-rich. I love pulling in rusts, golds, and berries—it's the season of abundance.
Why It Matters
- Richer Colors & Fresher Blooms: Flowers in season are at their peak—fuller, more vibrant, and lasting longer throughout your celebration.
- A Story Only You Can Tell: Your wedding won't feel like it could have been any time, anywhere. It will feel rooted, grounded, and uniquely yours.
- A Whisper of the Season: Imagine lilacs saying "fresh beginnings," dahlias whispering "abundance," or winter evergreens hinting at "enduring love." Every flower carries meaning, and seasonal blooms speak the loudest.
At De La Terre, I believe your wedding flowers shouldn't feel like they came out of a catalog, they should feel like they came out of the earth, right here, right now, for you.
Because when you choose what's in season, you're not just choosing flowers. You're choosing to remember this moment forever.
