Hello, The hot sun was one reason why we offer an alternative to real flowers. Our artificial range is huge and you can have whatever you want anytime of the year without the worry of them wilting in the sun. Plus you keep them to remember your special day. Decorate your home after the wedding ????
Depending on the season of ful sun, Most flowers are OK in average temperatures, Summer heat you need to be very careful although there are so many hardy flowers available in all seasons, almost all flowers you see in florist shops are OK.
These days flowers in season most are hardy. ie. I do not recamend oriental lillies or tulips.
Hardy flowers like natives, roses, freesias gerberas, lissianthus, & so many more. I can advise more if I know the date/season of your wedding. I hope that helps

Native/wildflowers are best for full sun. Not many flowers cope with full sun. Jenny Lismore Florist
Australian natives will with stand direct sunlight for long periods of time as they are hardy. Very soft and delicate textures for long durations of direct sunlight should try to be avoided like scabiosa. Skilled florists will attempt to time set-ups as close to the ceremony time as they can for delicate flowers so they are not in direct hot sunlight for long periods of time.
Hello
Depending on the style you would like to go for flowers that dont have super delicate petals, natives, orchids, even roses are usually pretty good. The things you want to look out for is more the shape of the bouquet and if you have flowers that sit out of the bouquet like astilbe, delphiniums etc as they can droop in the hot sun, its also sometimes better to go for fuller brighten colours rather than whites and pale pinks as they bruise very easily and discolour which can show up in full sun...as a rule of thumb its best to stick with flowers that are in season in your location to help wih coping with the weather.
Fresh flower options for Bouquets could include, Roses,Sunflowers,Verbena,Zinnia,Iris,Phlox,Rannuculars.
Real touch lifelike flowers would make a great option the. You could have any type of flowers and they would not wilt in the sun,you would then have them as a keepsake.
I can create any bouquet for you with your choice or real touch flowers for you Day and they will still be in great shape at the end of your day.

Hi there!
The safest bet would be Tropical flowers or Australian Natives, but in saying that, I've noticed your wedding is in August, so although there may be full sun, it's unlikely to be extremely hot, so most flowers, if they've been constructed well should be fine through-out the big day.
Hope that helps, let us know if you have any more questions!
