THE HOTTEST WEDDING FLOWER TRENDS FOR 2025
As we step into 2025, one thing is clear: wedding planning has become more intentional than ever before. This thoughtful approach also applies to selecting wedding flowers.
Just as the challenges of recent years reshaped the floral industry, 2025 brings a renewed focus on sustainability and creativity. Growers and florists are embracing innovative ways to meet demand while working with what’s in season and minimizing waste.
Bright and Bold
While pastel hues will always be in style, this year couples want punchier and bolder florals. “Brides have been locked in the house during this pandemic, giving them plenty of time to scour social media to get inspired by weddings from around the globe that are packed with lots of color,” says Moon. “From citrus to muted autumn hues, 2022 weddings will have much more color than ever before.”
Tons of Texture
Couples are more open than ever to having more of a variety of blooms in their floral arrangements. “Clients are enjoying more textured florals and less roses. They are open to heavy greenery, floral installations, and much more variety than the two-piece Hydrangea rose special,” says Moon. Smalls agrees that unique floral combinations are going to be big in 2022. “The floral trend I am most excited about is the combination of the fusion of bold and soft flower colors and textures that will create an unusual edge,” says Smalls.
Organic Arrangements
Flowers don’t always grow into a perfect shape as expected, but couples are embracing their organic shape—a perfect analogy to how they’ve had to adjust their expectations of what their wedding might look like over the last few years.
“If you study nature, you understand that flowers do not grow in a perfect shape, rather they grow in various directions and that is what makes nature so beautiful,” says Smalls. “I love placing floral centerpieces on tables that are organically arranged and give the room an artistic vibe.”
CENTERPIECES FULL OF VARIETY
Blooms don’t have to be on a solo display, in fact, working in other decor items like candles or a variety of vases takes any floral design up a notch. Moon has a few ideas for a next-level floral display for thereception tables. “Multiple arrangements on the estate tables, a mix of tall candles, low compote vases, and bud vases all mixed onto the center of the tables and less of the chargers and gold flatware.”
