Spring has officially sprung which means now is the perfect time to start thinking about your wedding flowers. From the bridal bouquet to reception table centrepieces, the flower power is real at any wedding! These are our favourite floral trends to inspire your spring time celebration.
Green Garden…
Embrace a more natural look with your wedding florals and make greenery and foliage the hero of your bridal bouquet. Foliage focused bouquets and cascading table pieces of lush greenery are not only beautiful and vibrant but they’re also super affordable! If your budget won’t cover an abundance of fresh flowers, opt for this more natural and organic option. Fill your bouquet with cinerea gum, long-leafed eucalyptus or jasmine vine and incorporate berries or banksia for a pop of colour.
Coral Florals…
The verdict is in and coral has been announced as the colour of the year for 2019! This animating shade of orange has a romantic golden undertone which makes it perfect to incorporate into your wedding florals this spring. Feature this vibrant hue throughout your ceremony to create a warm and spirited atmosphere of love.
Say Cheese…
We love a photo wall at a wedding reception, especially if it’s made entirely out of fresh flowers! Flower instalments are a beautiful and fragrant way to incorporate a unique element into your celebration. Think of all the fun photo opportunities you can have with your guests by adding a floral backdrop or huge flower wreath to your reception venue. Or, for a picture perfect ceremony, tie the knot in front of an extravagant floral arch.
Su-cute-lent…
This year the world seems to have gone plant crazy for succulents! And it’s no wonder because these cute little plants can be used in so many different ways. You can incorporate succulents into your bridal bouquet, make them the hero of your reception table in a sweet terrarium display or give them to your guests as wedding favours. We’re total succas for all things succulent!
Fit For A Queen…
One floral trend that will never go out of style is flower crowns! Whether you’re a boho bride who wants a big, bright, bold flower crown or a classic bride opting for a woodland-themed headpiece over a real tiara, flower crowns are the hair accessory for you. Floral halos can be fashioned to suit any wedding theme, from simple and sophisticated to quirky and chic. When deciding which flowers to hero in your crown, it’s important to choose florals that won’t wilt such as orchids, freesias and spray roses.
Raving About Ranunculus…
Peonies seem to have been the flower of the year for 2019 but what do you do if you’re planning a summer time wedding and peonies aren’t in season anymore? Never fear, ranunculus are here! These florals are pretty underrated and are often overlooked when brides are picking flowers for their bouquet but we’re totally obsessed. These beauties bloom from January to May and their delicate crepe-paper thin petals will have you swooning. These versatile blooms look completely stunning in any arrangement but their unique shape and texture means they’ll look just as striking on their own.
Less Is More…
If you’re a bride who doesn’t like the fuss of all the florals, consider opting for a minimalistic bridal bouquet. Minimalism has been a popular wedding floral trend for 2019 with brides emphasising the simplistic beauty of their bouquet. Instead of carrying an over-the-top display of florals, pick a striking bloom and opt to hold three or four stems of that flower for a look that is simplistic and dramatic all at once.
