A Las Vegas summer wedding is a stress test most flowers fail beautifully. These pass.
Flowers that pass a Las Vegas summer
Orchids — the desert's overachiever
The desert's overachiever, elegant and genuinely unbothered by heat.
Anthurium — waxy, sculptural, built for this climate
Waxy, sculptural, built for this climate.
Protea — nearly wilt-proof
Dramatic, woody-stemmed, nearly wilt-proof.
Tropicals and succulents
Tropicals generally, plus succulents, which treat a July afternoon as a spa day.
Handle with honesty: flowers to avoid in 110-degree heat
Hydrangea is the first to faint. Peonies arrive fragile and leave early in summer. Sweet peas and garden roses can do it only with cold storage, shade, and a short performance window, and we will tell you exactly that at the consultation instead of selling you the faint.

The valley's outdoor summer venues make the same point two ways: they sit in shade and water. Reflection Bay, on the Lake Las Vegas shore, runs outdoor ceremonies with the water as the backdrop — proof that a summer ceremony outside is a design problem, not an impossibility, when the setting does some of the cooling.
