Top 10 Wedding Flower Trends to help you plan an unforgetable wedding. What’s hot now in wedding flowers, wedding decorations and wedding trends!
Change the Shape
In lieu of perfectly compact bouquets and centerpieces, consider loosening up those arrangements and going for a more unstructured look. The key to getting a look that is modern and not messy the type of flower you choose. Think hearty blooms like gloriosa lilies, red hanging amaranthus, and yellow oncidium orchids — all good choices because they’re less likely to lose their modern shape throughout the evening.
Good ideas: Change the shape in other ways by incorporating a few nonfloral elements into your arrangements. To give depth to a formal bridal bouquet, have feathers and crystals threaded throughout. If it’s simple you’re after, consider adding a few in-season extras like berries or even herbs to add interest to an otherwise minimalistic look.
Flowers
Roses are still the most popular wedding flowers. But tulips and gerber daisies (gerberas) are also well-liked. We’ve noticed a rise in the number of people asking for tropical flowers in their bouquets. This is either because they are having a tropical theme or they are looking for a contemporary feel to their flowers. All manner of orchids including cymbidium, Singapore and Phalaenopsis orchids work well in tropical bouquets. Anthuriums and Protea are also great choices.
Eye-Catching Color
To get head-turning arrangements, think color before flower type. Bring color swatches, invites, and other inspirational details to your florist so they can help create arrangements that coordinate with the look and feel of your wedding day.
Good ideas: For a laid-back wedding outdoors, look to your surroundings for color inspiration — think earthy greens, browns, and soft ivories. If it’s a glam look you’re after, think tall dramatic monochromatic and monobotanic arrangements to really wow your guests.
Light Them Right
Add candles to any floral arrangement and you’ll instantly create a romantic ambience. From simple small colored votive candles to large pillar candles, and even pin spot lighting, adding the right light to your floral arrangements will really enhance the look and feel of the room.
Good ideas: Hang candles from tall branchy centerpieces to add warmth to a white-on-white winter scene. For a beach setting, incorporate the surrounding elements using water filled vases and filling them with fresh orchids and small floating candles. To set the tone for a formal affair, have small votives wired into floral arrangements for the escort card table and entryway arrangements.
Daring Colors
Gone are the days of adhering to light pastels and muted shades in wedding decorations. Today’s brides are opting for bold and interesting pairings of colors in their wedding flowers and floral schemes. Not afraid of mixing purples and orange’s, the post-millennium color palette is expanding. Read more on choosing your wedding colors.
More than just Flowers
Mix it up a bit by incorporating produce. One of the hot trends in wedding flowers is arrangements featuring fruits, herbs and even veggies as a playful and fun approach. Their naturally vibrant colors coincide with the daring color trend. Many brides are also turning to the woods for inspiration. Green grasses add dimension and structure and can elicit a warm, summery feeling. This list of unique wedding decorations has even more blossom-free arrangement ideas.
Dynamic Tables
Table arrangements are also becoming more dynamic. Instead of conforming to identical floral arrangements on each table, some brides are using different containers, varying the heights, or grouping an assortment of low centerpieces together.
Keep it Simple
Gone are the days of overpowering floral arrangements adorned with excess filler flowers. Today’s brides opt for a more natural and tailored look to their wedding flowers. One bouquet style rising in popularity is the hand tied bouquet. The fresh bunch of flowers presents the look of simple elegance that brides desire.
Traditional with a Contemporary Twist
When speaking to brides a frequent wish for their wedding bouquet design is to have it ‘traditional with a contemporary twist’. They don’t want a bouquet like their mother’s but then again they don’t want something that is way-out and radical. A contemporary stylish look can be achieved by using contemporary flowers, design and accessories.
