Its an out door wedding, late April/ early May, in Arkansas, so what flowers hold up well in the 80+ heat?

Not many wild flowers are going to hold up in 80degree heat. I would try to use a more sturdy flower, such as a calla. If you are really dead set on wild flowers though, You need to get them from a florist or grow them yourself. It's illegal to go and just pick them from somewhere. Actually growing them yourself would be a good idea, since then you could pick them early on the day of your wedding.
Reply:Before you spend money on heavily scented flowers please make sure that the persons who have to carry them can stand the smell. Some people are allergic to smelly flowers and no one will be able to hear the vows over the sneezes.
Reply:Unfortunately, most wildflowers don't hold up well once plucked. The best flowers to hold up in that kind of heat are calla lilies and roses. You could get artificial flowers and spray them with your favorite perfume.
