I’m getting married in late October and I’m trying to decide what type of flowers I want. My colors are black and hot pink and white. Can you get any type of flower from a florist in fall or does it have to be in season? I was hoping for tulips.

Also, any ideas on any hot pink flowers that would look good in wedding bouquets?
Is the McCartney rose easy to get a hold of? Ever seen it in a florist shop?

pink lillies? or Gerberas? they7 both good!
If you want tulips then you should get them I dont think you should have a problem getting them. I also recoment roses. They have different colors. congratualtions!
I would talk to your florist she should be able to get you any flower you want. You could also use silk in your bridesmaids, and grooms men, and family members. and use fresh in your arrangement. Some good silks look as good as fresh. Your florist may even be able to help you there. Or check out books at the library for ideas, and hit up Hobby Lobby, Michael’s or any stores like that, they usually have people that make up arrangements, and they could help you also. Never heard of a McCartney rose. Congrats by the way!
You can *usually* get any type of flower from an upper end florist. You will pay a premium for the tulips in fall though. They will have to import them. For a specific variety of rose I would think you would need to go to a high end florists who deals with specialty flowers. When I asked my florist for a specific rose variety they gave me the run around. They ended up dying white roses to the shade I wanted from the sterling rose and all was well!
For a fall wedding tulips will not be available, or if they were they would be VERY expensive.
One of the greatest hot pink flowers is a stargazers lily. There are a lot of hot pink roses, the McCartney is a garden rose and hasn’t been done as a florist rose.
White calla lilies are great.
Good luck!
