Because for her this represented the idealization of love and what she seeks in a romance.

Explanation:

When she observes the reciprocity and intimacy between the bee and the flower, she sees this encounter as the idealization of love and romance. She is thrilled to watch the bee and the flower, because that's what she expects from a wedding and that's the kind of experience she wants to have.
