I need a flower that looks like a peony.?

My wedding is in September and I had my heart set on pink peonies and brown dahlias. I was told there not in season in sept. so I was wondering if anyone had any ideas about flowers that look similar. Thanks.

Try cabbage roses, they are beautiful and peony-like.

Reply:I love peonies, too. Ranunculus looks similar, but alas, also not in season.





I am doing a dark calla lily called "Naomi." It almost looks brown. Google it.





I am also using dahlias. You could use a pink one. I actually didn't know there was a brown dahlia...I looked for one, though.





You could also do roses-full roses.





Good luck!
Reply:How 'bout a double-petaled rose? They are very full and have multiple layers, similar to a peony.

Or hibiscus? Same delicate petal, but not multi-layered. Will take creativity from your florist to make it last in a bouquet though.
