Trendiest Floral Styles for a Modern Bride

This is the day we dreamt about since we were little girls and boys. The perfect dress and tux, the magnificent venue, a close-knit circle of family and friends, hand-in-hand with the beloved on the way to their “happily ever after…”

Weddings are magical affairs! We spend a lot of time trying to plan the ultimate day worthy of celebrating the two hearts joining as one. While wedding traditions and customs around the world vary greatly and culture influences our decor and style, some things are universal – flowers can transform your wedding and add sweetness to your big day.

But it’s easy to get overwhelmed with all the options out there. We decided to ask our floral experts from around the world about the latest wedding florals trends they are seeing in 2019 and they gave us an insider look into the industry. We are passing these trends on to you in hopes of helping you narrow down your style.

1. Monochromatic florals

This floral trend is perfect for any theme, be it a classic affair or modern-day glam wedding, and can be personalized for each bride’s unique vision. Monochromatic floral arrangements, also known as the “block-color” bouquets, begin with a mix of flowers all in a single hue, such as white, red, pink or purple, and include flowers in tints, tones, and shades within that color family, perfectly blended to create a very striking look.

Remember Meghan Markle’s stunning all-white floral wedding bouquet? This new wedding trend focuses on textural details and simplicity rather than an abundance of colors. Paired with some lovely greenery and beautiful silk ribbons, these bouquets are statement pieces.

2. Earthy meets boho

If your style is more reminiscent of a woodland nymph rather than the fairy princess, a bohemian-themed wedding adorned with natural, earthy florals and greens is all the rage right now. This look is achieved by pairing beautiful soft-colored or white roses with mosses, ferns and lot of foliage cascading down in all its earthy glory. Feel like you stepped into the breathtaking lands of Rivendell (one of the Elf Kingdoms in Lord of the Ring) on your Wedding Day.

3. Coral affair

Another popular trend is inspired by the Pantone color of the year, which is Living Coral. These arrangements are created with a mix of coral, peach and orange flowers and can incorporate the use of bright and fragrant citrus fruit in the bouquets and/or venue decor. Some of the go-to citrus options include clementines and lemons and make for a unique pop of color to spruce up the energy on your special day.

4. Minimalistic touch

A hot trend in 2019 centered around “less is more” is floral minimalism. We are seeing many variations of smaller arrangements comprised entirely of a single type of flowers in a small bunch for a unique and modern look. Other variations include a solo flower or a few stems of various blossoms and greens instead of elaborate creations. These unique bouquets vary in color, size and style but the overarching conclusion is simplicity. The resulting look is a streamlined arrangement that feels simultaneously contemporary and classic.

5. Cascading color

Looking for something more unique? Consider a blend of multiple florals and colors, cascading down in perfect harmony. Cascading arrangements are sophisticated, captivating and unique. They drape down to create a more dramatic look for your perfect wedding day.
