For brides, clutching a bouquet prepared with fresh, fragrant florals is beyond comparison. However, this year the trend was to embrace local blossoms, harvested by local farmers with love. And thankfully, this trend became more common among couples and well as florists.
A looser and quirky arrangement has been around for years, and it doesn’t seem to lose its popularity soon. The trend is based on nature-inspired arrangements, not a fancy looking overly decorated bouquet prepared from bulk flowers. A large number of couples as well as florists followed this trend.
There was seen a slight shift for opulent and overflowing bouquets. Be it dahlias or roses in bulk, a shabby chic floral style was trending this year. By using a variety of British blooms, this style looked gorgeous. For example, sweet peas, nigella, stock, delphinium can be employed to look something big and ostentatious in a smaller budget.
When we are talking about trends, how can be the color of the blooms left behind? People want to see single color or similar tones of same color blossoms. This gave rise in demand of blush and blues with peach foxgloves. Bold corals, deep blues, and bright flower-like dahlias keep trending this year.
Whether it is giant floral wreaths, hula loops or lush floral chandeliers, the hanging arrangement continued to stay popular, especially for weddings. Hanging floral installation beautifully adapted to family-style gatherings. Not only they made a memorable décor but also freed up table space.
Booms of red wine color family, like marsala, burgundy, red wine were most trending this year. Whether you prefer Merlot, Pinot Noir, or Cabernet, these deep wines tones complement a variety of color hues.
Dahlias were in high demand for fall wedding designs. Other big beauties, like Labyrinth and Peaches N Cream, were also sought out by florists.
Gray, this new neutral within the home décor made its in floral designs as well. Gray pairs with several colors and is often combined with blush pink. Gray will probably continue to hold its popularity. It goes best with crisp white and green. Other foliages, like eucalyptus, succulents, olive branches pair them in the best possible way.
Green can be said the color of the year. It got reflected in weddings, bouquets, themes, and decorations, but in subtle ways. In the upcoming time, greenery can be expected to be seen as a prominent focal point in wedding décor. It can be incorporated in a variety of creative ways, like garlands of foliage, sprigs of green embellishing the place setting, green wreaths, chair decora and foliage backdrops for photo booths.
A bouquet isn’t complete without a luxe ribbon finish. Brides are looking for more meaningful bouquets so that it can stand out in a special way. This purpose was achieved through antique lace, vintage handkerchiefs, multiple layers of silk ribbon steamers and so on.
Delicate floral hair accessories have replaced big floral crowns of the past. Now we see prettier floral hair combs artfully woven in the hairstyle this year. Another big trend was elegant cuff wrist corsages that feel more like jewelry.
Instead of oversized wedding cakes, people seemed more inclined to cakes that allow ample scope to incorporate flowers into cake designs as well as table décor. Live flowers serving as cake toppings and flowers and foliage to style cakes were seem to trend this year.
Hope you got the idea for your wedding.
