Looks tasty, but I would throw in some rice hulls otherwise you might end up with a stuck sparge with all that wheat
 
I'd use malted wheat instead of flaked, otherwise, you may have problems converting.
 
Definitely use malted wheat. Use pilsner in lieu of the 2-row or just eliminate it altogether and add more wheat and vienna. 62F will be on the clovey side if that's what you're looking for.
