Hope this helps you in deciding your main flower for your wedding.  Picking your favorite flower will help guide you in building your bouquet, center pieces and other wedding decor.  Note that many of these flowers are year round, but many are not.  It's best to determine your flower choice after your wedding date is set as it could be expensive to get a flower that is out of season.  If you do not have a flower that you love why not choose based on the meaning of the flower?
