5 Wedding Trends We Love Right Now
With so many new trends coming in and out of fashion within the wedding industry, it can be hard to keep up. As a florist servicing Seattle couples and its surrounding areas, we have rounded up the top five wedding trends that we love right now. While we admit these are “trending” designs, we also feel strongly that you won’t cringe at these photos in 20 years. These wedding florals are popular for a reason and we consider them timeless. From petite bridal bouquets to eclectic table decor, read on to discover our favorite trends that will elevate your wedding look.
Hanging floral installations
First up on our list, is the hanging flowers trend. We are loving the statement that hanging flowers make at a wedding. It is always great to see how couples take a unique approach to this trend. Whether you opt for a simple yet effective floral hoop or a floral chandelier, a hanging floral installation is a sure way to WOW your guests. There are many ways to design with hanging flowers at your wedding reception depending on what the venue/location offers. Collaborate with your wedding florist to see how a hanging installation could work with your venue.

Mismatched Wedding Parties
The next trend is perfect for the couple who wants to create a more relaxed vibe at their wedding. Mismatched wedding parties are becoming more and more popular and we’re here for it. In what universe do a group of adults wear matching outfits for anything else aside from a wedding? This approach allows your wedding party members to wear something they feel comfortable in. To top it off, mismatched bouquets and boutonnieres also add more color and texture to your wedding party look. We love the look of single variety flower bouquets for your wedding party.

Eclectic table designs
For table decor, we're all about that eclectic look. The days of matching centerpieces at each table are gone. We suggest at least two types of centerpiece designs for more visual interest in any wedding reception space. As long as the design choices are intentional and work with the vibe you’re trying to achieve, the look will come together. For this wedding, the vintage brass candlesticks and colorful variety of taper candles fit right in with the vibrant flowers and stationary design.

Petite Wedding Bouquets
We all know that the wedding bouquet is an essential design for the wedding day. We've seen the trend of smaller, petite bouquets making waves. This trend is perfect for the low key bride, as well as gives the freedom to hold the bouquets without feeling weighed down. At our weddings, we typically aim for a medium-sized bouquet but have been loving the dainty feel of small bouquets. They can still make a statement without overpowering the person or attire.

Aisle Flowers
Last but not least, we have the large aisle arrangements trend making its mark with Moonflower couples this year. These large arrangements create impact in the ceremony space and leave a lasting impression on your guests. We love this trend, especially when there are endless possibilities to repurpose them into your reception decor. A few places they might look great repurposed are in front of the cake table, sweetheart table, or band!

From making a statement with hanging floral installations, adding personality with eclectic table decor, and eye-catching entrance with large aisle arrangements, these trends are here to transform your wedding day visions into a reality. As a wedding florist that services Seattle and its surrounding areas, we can't wait to see how our 2024 couples utilize these trends with their wedding flowers.
