Wedding florals · Gallatin Valley
Wildstem builds every bouquet, arch and table around the growing season. Send us your date and we will tell you plainly what will be open in the field that week — and what that means for the day.
Bridal bouquets, ceremony arch florals, centerpieces, boutonnières, delivery and setup — built in Bozeman, Montana.
Season panels
Four stretches of the Montana year, four plain reads on what is in the field. Each one covers the bouquet, the arch, the tables and the lapel — in the months you are actually marrying.
The first real flush
Cool mornings keep everything upright, and the scent is the strongest it gets all year.
Everything at once
Heat sets the pace. Dahlias do the heavy lifting, and colour stops being a risk.
The last flush
Colour goes deep on its own and the light gets long. The most forgiving palette of the year.
Nothing is growing
The garden here is asleep, and we say so. Winter work leans on dried stems, bare branches and greens that hold, plus imported stems we will name for you.
Three palettes
These are the three palettes we build most in a Montana year. Each one is tied to a window rather than a shade chart — which is the whole point of booking against your date.
Palette 01
Cool, fragrant and briefly here. The early palette is pale, green and scented, and it will not wait — peonies come and go in a stretch of days here, so this one is booked against a window rather than a single morning.
In the bucket · tulips · lilac · peonies · columbine · sweet peas
Palette 02
Dahlias, zinnias and cosmos, cut the morning of. Heat changes the build: we go wide, low and generous, keep water close by, and let the arch carry as much colour as the field will give it.
In the bucket · dahlias · zinnias · cosmos · sunflowers · yarrow · grasses
Palette 03
By September the colour deepens without being asked. We build low and textural, with ornamental grasses and seed heads doing as much work as the flowers.
Palette three is the one we recommend most often for late dates — it holds up in a cold evening, it photographs warmly, and its stems are still standing in the field the week you marry.

How it works
Seasonal sourcing is not a footnote to a wedding — it is the first decision. So the conversation starts where the field starts, and everything else follows from it.
Send the date, the venue and a rough guest count. A rough idea is genuinely enough to begin with.
You get a plain list of what will actually be blooming that week, and what that means for the shape of your plans.
You choose from the season in front of you. Bouquets, arch, centerpieces and boutonnières are quoted together as one piece of work.
Everything is built in the studio, then brought to the venue on the day and placed — bouquets, arch florals and tables — with time to spare before guests arrive.
