Anthologized and written by Tonneli Grüetter and Molly Lucille

The flower industry is poised for an exciting transformation in 2025, with five bold trends set to shake up the way florists approach design. These trends—“Brutalist Bliss,” “Floral Focus,” “Cucina Carnival,” “Meadow Modernism” and “Rodeo Rambler”—offer a refreshing departure from traditional floristry, infusing creativity, environmental friendliness and sustainability, and individuality into every arrangement. Whether you’re a retail florist, event designer or delivery specialist, these trends will breathe new life into your craft and provide fresh inspiration for the year ahead.

Floristry is constantly evolving, and staying ahead of the curve is crucial to remaining competitive in a dynamic marketplace. With our annual “American Floral Trends Forecast,” we offer florists a valuable opportunity to lead the industry by exploring new styles and techniques. This year’s trends highlight a diverse range of influences from across the globe, giving florists the tools they need to push boundaries and captivate their clients. The key to embracing these trends is to think holistically: What cultural or environmental factors are driving these trends, and how can they be adapted to suit your community or customer base? It’s about not only following the latest trend but also understanding the deeper influences and using them as a springboard for personal creativity and growth.

These five trends offer a diverse array of possibilities for florists to explore, from embracing nature’s wild beauty to experimenting with bold colors and sculptural forms. As floristry continues to evolve in 2025, florists are presented with an exciting opportunity to push the boundaries of their craft; create meaningful, innovative designs; and keep their clients inspired. Whether crafting a minimalist bouquet or creating a dramatic, showstopping centerpiece, these trends provide frameworks for floral designers to grow creatively, experiment and thrive in the year ahead.

Trend 1

Brutalist Bliss

Floristry is undergoing a dramatic transformation with “Brutalist Bliss,” a modern, masculine and often polarizing trend inspired by the bold textures and use of raw, utilitarian materials—exposed concrete, steel and glass—of the Brutalist architecture style that emerged in the UK in the 1950s, following World War II and remained popular through the 1970s. The Brutalist architecture movement, a.k.a. Brutalism, embraced honesty in materials and unapologetic forms, and it is unmistakable: heavy, monolithic and unapologetically robust. (Defining examples include London’s Trellick Tower and Barbican residential buildings.)

This new floral design trend reinterprets those principles, replacing concrete and steel with accessible natural elements like dried grasses, Gladiolus and Gloriosa lilies. The hallmark of “Brutalist Bliss” is its fearless celebration of texture and structure. Feathery grasses contrast with waxy Anthurium, and heavy orchids juxtapose with light larkspurs, creating dynamic sculptural arrangements that reject fussy adornments and delicate frills in favor of commanding impact. Color plays a pivotal role, with rich hues like lacquer red, verdant green and warm amber arranged in bold, architectural compositions that demand attention.

This style’s accessibility is part of its charm. Affordable, practical materials like strawflowers and Gladiolus embody the ethos of sustainability and resourcefulness, mirroring Brutalism’s post-war origins. Yet, the trend’s appeal isn’t just pragmatic; it’s artistic. The thoughtful balance of colors, textures and negative space ensures Brutalist-inspired arrangements feel striking yet harmonious.

“Brutalist Bliss” challenges traditional floristry, encouraging designers to think architecturally and work with scale. Whether creating a monumental installation for a cosmopolitan event or a smaller statement piece for a gallery opening, this style exudes modernist elegance. It’s not about delicacy; it’s about celebrating the raw, natural beauty of materials in a way that feels bold, contemporary and deeply tied to its time.

For those ready to embrace this trend, the key is to think big. Layer textures, experiment with forms and build compositions that command attention. “Brutalist Bliss” is more than a trend; it’s a statement, pushing the boundaries of floral design into bold and uncharted territory.

Trend 2

Floral Focus

Dia Uno- Efege Photography

Step into the enchanting world of “Floral Focus,” a trend that elevates monobotanical, or mono-floral, design to an art form. By spotlighting a single flower variety, this style celebrates the intricate interplay of color, texture and form, proving simplicity can hold extraordinary complexity. Whether showcasing creamy daffodils, glassy pink lilies or fluttering yellow orchids, the look highlights nature’s subtle variations while exuding a feminine, whimsical charm.

Drawing inspiration from global floral folk art, “Floral Focus” blends traditional craftsmanship with modern sensibility. From European painted motifs to the delicate beaded flowers of the Americas, these influences inform the trend’s ethereal aesthetic. Yet, monobotanical designs remain dynamic—playing with multiple colors or varieties of one bloom to create sculptural depth and visual intrigue. For example, apricot tulips or violet-blue hyacinths arranged in cascading bouquets exemplify its sophisticated simplicity.

The color palette evokes spring’s vibrancy with soft yellows, pinks and violet-blues, punctuated by bursts of orange, for unexpected energy. This harmony of hues ensures each arrangement feels fresh and intentional. Perfect for weddings, the trend’s cascading bouquets—like streams of pale daffodils or Butterfly Ranunculus—merge drama with delicacy, creating unforgettable wearable floral art.

Versatile and timeless, “Floral Focus” suits both grand and intimate settings. Imagine garlands of strawflowers adorning staircases or an arrangement of single-variety sweet-peas in a pastel glass vase, exuding quiet elegance. Its emphasis on traditional craftsmanship celebrates the natural beauty of flowers while inviting a renewed appreciation for intentional design.

To embrace this trend, start with a single bloom that inspires you. Focus on form, texture and harmony, creating designs that feel both effortless and profound. With “Floral Focus,” beauty lies in simplicity and the magic of the singular.

Trend 3

Cucina Carnival

The latest trend in floral and event design, “Cucina Carnival,” merges food items with flowers and foliages into opulent yet playful creations. Inspired by the Italian Renaissance-era colorful glazed terra-cotta statuary and sculptures of Luca della Robbia—think of classic fruit-filled wreaths on terra-cotta pottery—this trend celebrates abundance and elevates humble produce and other food items into a vibrant art form.

Picture cascades of tomatoes, glossy grapes and dew-kissed cabbages arranged with crusty baguettes or hand-crafted pasta swirls. These compositions balance high-brow aesthetics with nostalgia, perfect for a Tuscan-inspired tablescape adorned with jewel-toned radicchio and roses or a whimsical table scattered with daisies and spires of fresh bread. Versatility is key: this trend graces fashion week after-parties and backyard weddings alike.

The color palette hums with bold, natural hues: the velvety green of cabbage, the crimson of tomatoes and the rich deep purple of Concord grapes. Saturation reigns supreme. Textures play an equally vital role, juxtaposing the smooth skin of produce with soft petals or rustic bread crusts.

Designers approach “Cucina Carnival” in two styles. The whimsical approach leans into cheeky decadence, with stacked baguettes, wired waxy peppers or dried pasta as “floral” fillers. The disciplined approach draws on gallery aesthetics, creating precise, harmonious compositions in which strawberries spill like paint or grapes mound dramatically.

This trend’s charm lies in its ability to turn everyday items into extraordinary art, embodying humor, creativity and resourcefulness. It thrives in grand corporate events, where it balances sophistication and wit, and in intimate celebrations, evoking community and abundance.

To try this trend, embrace abundance and play with contrasts. Pair rustic bread with silky tulips or poppies for texture and balance. Above all, celebrate the beauty in simplicity—whether through a cascade of cherries or a pile of croissants. With “Cucina Carnival,” the simplest ingredients transform into joyful masterpieces. It’s art, humor and a delicious excuse to play with your food.

Trend 4

Meadow Modernism

Iris and Fig

The movement of grass, shifting in the wind. The curl and climb of a vine as it stretches and grows. Golden light-dappled leaves, delicately arched branches, a butterfly’s wings across a meadow. A new era of nature-inspired floristry has begun. As a focus on environmental friendliness and sustainability continues to influence the decisions and direction of the flower industry, a foraged, untamed look is on the rise. The “Meadow Modernism” trend exemplifies an era of design that crafts installations, designs and texture choices around the way nature exists on its own.

Unlike the “wildflower” or “garden” buzzwords that are ever present in the flower industry, this trend is less about blooms themselves and dives almost entirely into a study of texture and movement, responding to the natural shapes, textures and forms of nature. Textural grasses such as ‘Frosted Explosion’ grass (Panicum elegans/P. capillare), feathertop grass (Cenchrus longisetus) and other ornamental grasses are a large focus of this trend. Woven, intertwined or left unbound, these grasses are utilized not as an accompaniment but as the focus of “Meadow Modernism” arrangements. As previously mentioned, this trend is full of distinctive foraged textures, often embracing imperfections, dried elements, curling vines, and an often overlooked and underappreciated element—“filler” flowers.

This trend can be seen most frequently in installation work for events and weddings, crafting spaces that appear to have “grown” in place, but they are also seen creating micro grasslands on tablescapes and in daily shop environments, with foraged-style arrangements. Fresh plants can be utilized to further craft this natural look, as well as inclusions of entomology references, mosses, branches, etc. Often, due to the natural appearance of these arrangements, the containers and mechanics are completely concealed, furthering the feeling that one has simply stumbled upon nature simply existing, teeming with life and vibrancy.

Rodeo Rambler

Time to don your tassels, dust off your cowboy boots and giddy-up! In 2025, we are celebrating a shining pink, peaches-and-cream Western dream with the “Rodeo Rambler” trend. Western influences have been dominating pop culture, fashion and music over the last year. More artists than ever experimenting with a country sound (notably, Beyonce’s Cowboy Carter album), donning rodeo-inspired fashions with tassels, denim, boots and hats. These Wild West influences are extending now into the flower industry with a fun, rhinestone dazzle, Dolly Parton-style twist.

“Rodeo Rambler” is all about having fun and being bold; bold colors, textures and unexpected color combinations dominate this trend. Experimentation with fun focal flowers such as Anthurium, orchids, cactus flowers, with bold hues of pink, apricot, orange and even chartreuse, accented with elements of tassels, rope, boots and even decorated Anthurium blooms. To properly showcase the bold bloom-forward style of this trend, designs are utilizing primarily stacked, layered blooms with minimal foliage and fillers to maintain a curated yet maximalist style.

For daily shops, try utilizing playful containers into daily flower arrangements to bring this trend into everyday arrangements, birthdays and smaller parties, paired with Western-themed cards and stationery. For events and weddings, Western-inspired clothing choices are becoming wildly popular, so unique and fun wearables and personal flowers are a great way to jump on this trend and pair with these trending clothing choices. Tablescapes can be crafted to include Western influences, as well, scattered with cacti inclusions, woven rope or even cowboy hats on the backs of chairs. Regardless of how you incorporate this trend, the “Rodeo Rambler” trend pours itself a cup of ambition, keeps on dancing and invites you to come along.

For esteemed retail florists, blue blooms, such as sweet-scented hyacinths, towering Delphinium and exuberant masses of Hydrangea, are recommended to freshen your floral compositions. To appeal to the sensibilities of retail customers, floral designers should deftly balance blue flowers with accents of sunshine yellow and fluttering touches of white, nestled in the verdant embrace of graceful greenery such as Italian Ruscus. In the Matutine trend, wedding and event floral designs will draw inspiration from the stylistic sensibilities of the gardens of the Palace of Versailles, with its devotion to manicured natural beauty.

In stark contrast to recent trends that favored heavy frameworks as foundational mechanics for installations, this aesthetic asks you to align your design practice with the intrinsic features of the host venue. Instead of creating something from nothing, designers working within this trend will use their discerning eyes to spot the most fabulous features of their host spaces and come to clients with the fantastic ideas to make them even better. Trained vines will serve as a regal canvas for blue color-blocked flowers, gently cascading around doorways, ascending stair railings and framing fountains with an aura of fairy-tale romance. When transported to outdoor gardens for alfresco affairs, ethereal archways devoid of visible timber or mechanics will reign supreme. Appearing in this trend, we will see the emergence of low clusters of loosely arranged greenery, adorned resplendent blue Delphinium, Tweedia/Oxypetalum and dyed reflexed tulips. To create a natural feeling of unpretentious charm, these aisleway mounds look especially lovely when accentuated by joyful flutters of feverfew, emulating the allure of a flourishing garden and transforming intimate spaces into veritable oases that exude the optimistic essence of a new day.

For purveyors of editorial finesse and commercial flower stylists, we proffer the refined suggestion of diminishing the presence of supporting blooms in white and yellow, opting, instead, for impeccably orchestrated monochromatic blue ensembles. This juxtaposition of strikingly saturated blue hues within a context of romantic arrangements—a regrettably absent spectacle in recent years—is poised to ascend to preeminence in this year, heralding an era of elevated sophistication in floral artistry.

“Arvo,” meaning midday, draws its inspiration from the energy of Y2K-era fashion, reimagined by a rising generation of young designers and consumers now hitting their stride as young professionals. Practitioners of this style excel at creating a rule-set remixed to be entirely their own, informed by the disruptive-most trends of days gone by. Although the “Arvo” aesthetic is visually polarized, it is essential to keep in mind that this look is designed to be as enjoyable for consumers at home as it is for floral designers to craft on the bench, with its free-spirited use of color and composition.

The essence of “Arvo” can be channeled into a multitude of colors and is not meant to be harnessed into a single focal color. However, to simplify visualizing the “Arvo” trend, we have chosen an opaque pink-to-red analogous color palette to illustrate this new school of thought. To transition from monochromatic to analogous, one will notice restrained reaches outside the pink and red range of colors, to neighboring hues such as near-white powder pink of Ranunculus, orangy coral peonies and rich fuchsia Phalaenopsis orchids.

A defining trait of this trend, in stark contrast to the late 2010s and early 2020s, is a newfound embrace of negative space. Grandiose and imposing blocks of densely packed flowers, formerly dominant as “flower walls” in the luxury wedding space, have given way to multimedia environments of densely packed pigmentation. Flowers now have the space to be seen individually, playing important roles in the overall visual landscape, akin to notes in a song. Key ingredients in these compositions go beyond flowers, bringing lots of cleanly hemmed draping, ribbons, candles, streamers and feathery plumes.

For fashion-forward wedding clients seeking a rock-and-roll attitude, the “Arvo” trend sets the tone of happy rebellion in an explosion of color. Bridal bouquets defy traditional shapes, welcoming the creative exercises long practiced by floral designers dueling on the competition circuit. Anticipate long tablescapes adorned with low table arrangements accented by flowers of stem length placed individually. Aligning with the spirit of appreciating what was underappreciated by previous trends, “Arvo” professes its love for red hybrid tea roses, bubblegum-hued carnations, lively Gerbera and silky satin ribbons, all in a radical declaration of affection.

More than any other application, we believe the “Arvo” trend shines brightest when making space to integrate everyday flowers into the fabric of life. With its emphasis on creating a low barrier to entry through the use of affordable flower types, scalability to smaller vases and enticing colors that grab at consumers. This trend is all about celebrating the young and the restless, turning every space into a rockstar venue. It’s not just a trend; it’s a flower-powered rebellion, and we’re all invited to join the party.

Trend 3: POSTMERIDIAN

Every day, immediately following our lunch breaks and just before we wind down for the evening, we immerse ourselves in the postmeridian magic—that special time in the late afternoon when life is bathed in soft golden hues. It’s a moment when time slows and even the most commonplace things, such as dust particles, twirl in the milky sunlight, acquiring a magical quality. Welcome to the “Postmeridian” trend, an homage to this enchanting moment through the exploration of color and approach.

In the “Postmeridian” aesthetic, coined by us as the “Postmeridian glow-up,” we’ve witnessed an upward trend in floristry seamlessly harmonizing with the play of sunlight. The luminaries of floral artistry wield simple materials like grass strands and shaggy moss, transforming them into sculptural masterpieces, demanding the careful attention of an audience. By employing insignificant materials and multiplying them by mass and focusing their power through artistic manipulation, floral artistry is realized. Braided grass assumes the spotlight as the anchoring canvas while unripe fruits and visually complex flowering vegetables, such as closed artichoke heads, Brassica and Allium, cluster together, creating a subdued yet captivating drama.

Colors in this trend seep across the neutral spectrum, reaching from beige into velvety deep greens. To prevent boredom, an intentional touch of drama is introduced with a zap of yellow-green focal flora upfront, commanding attention. Jumping from the “Postmeridian” flower bucket are green hellebores, Anthurium, Zinnia and Eustoma/Lisianthus, all adorned in a captivating vernal palette. Recommended supporting flowers include delicate mock orange blossoms with sunny centers and petite daisies.

When considering the application of the “Postmeridian” trend for retail clients, the key lies in translating its sophisticated charm into accessible and appealing arrangements. For retail shops aiming to captivate their customers with the “Postmeridian” allure, we recommend curating arrangements that showcase the serene and accepting qualities of this style. Incorporating elements like braided palm frond leaflets as a foundational element can add a touch of understated elegance, and adding an unexpected piece of woody branch can bring a unique and captivating drama. The color palette can be adapted to suit the preferences of a diverse clientele. Retail florists can experiment with temperate-climate flowers, such as bells-of-Ireland, in this youthful, fresh and modern palette, creating arrangements that not only capture the essence of “Postmeridian” magic but also appeal to the tastes of their customers. This trend, with its nod to sustainability, can elevate the retail floral experience, inviting customers to embrace the beauty of the everyday through thoughtfully crafted and visually stunning arrangements not available in mass-market floral stalls.

For wedding and event florists, the “Postmeridian” trend is a sophisticated suggestion for modern and minimalist-minded clients. Low table-runner arrangements, resembling floral poetry, initiate conversations. Envision floating cloud-style floral installations, sustainable marvels that add an intriguing touch to boxy and plain wedding venues. Flowers styled in the “Postmeridian” fashion instill a sense of serene acceptance in any space they grace, making them an ideal fit for corporate floral clients. Whether elevating an art gallery or welcoming spa-goers to a day of indulgence, the technical prowess of floral design techniques coupled with a neutral palette create an irresistible desire to savor beauty, just as we do during the golden hour.

Trend 4: EVENFALL

Blue Jasmine Floral

Inspired by the beautiful tapestry of an evenfall sky, casting dark shadows in opposition to radiant hues of peach and coral as the sun gracefully retreats, this trend draws its inspiration from our earthly canvas, painted with the ethereal glow of a fleshy peach-toned rose. It is the sincere aim of this trend to capture the essence of twilight’s tender moments. Holding closely each velveteen petal as it becomes a brushstroke, delicately blending into the canvas of the evening, as dusk welcomes us to light the candles and pour the wine, “Evenfall” celebrates the beauty of the fading day as the richness of night unveils itself in the gentle embrace of nature’s palette.

Before the luminaries at Pantone announced it, our expert panel of floral trend predictors called it first. In 2024 consumers will be longing for the warmth and comfort of “Peach Fuzz” (Pantone 13-1023), a luscious, soft pinkish-orange hue. In the floral space, we will see this manifest as an appreciation for fleshy tones roses such as ‘RP Moab’, ‘Quicksand’, ‘Maple Syrup’ and other similarly hued roses, moving away from the ghostly gray tones that commanded attention in recent years. To help these focal flowers shine, florists may heavily employ seasonally available garnet-hued blossoms such as tulips, Anemone and sweet peas. In the “Evenfall” trend, foliage will be used sparingly and with meticulous intention. Vessels will be kept out of focus, in harmony with the overall design of a flower composition. Glazed neutral-tone vases with a low profile and open mouths will serve as excellent choices for designers wanting to harness the full romantic allure of this look.

To seamlessly adapt the “Evenfall” trend for retail flower arrangements, it’s essential to prioritize the lush and comforting hue variations of “Peach Fuzz,” Pantone’s “2024 Color of the Year,” which is poised to dominate consumer preferences this year. If premium garden roses may be unsuitable for everyday designs, consider alternatives such as hybrid carnations, Lisianthus, and tulips available in this warm color range. Enhance focal flowers with seasonally available gem-toned blossoms such as Ranunculus, Alstroemeria and spray roses, to create contrast. In line with the “Evenfall” aesthetic, keep the focus on the flowers, but employ foliage that adds mass and interest such as red/brown Galax and variegated green/red/brown geranium leaves. This approach ensures that your everyday arrangements not only embody the romantic allure of the “Evenfall” trend but also arrive as a cost-effective visual delight, ready to infuse warmth into the recipient’s space.

For event florists, the “Evenfall” trend is set to grace luxury weddings with an intimate and sophisticated ambiance in 2024. In anticipation of warmer sensibilities taking center stage, in this wave we urge you to begin reserving ‘RP Moab’, ‘Quicksand’, ‘Maple Syrup’ and other similarly hued roses now. Weddings of all sizes will witness an infusion of warmth through the heavy use of historically meaningful flowers such as Dahlia, sweet peas, tulips and Ranunculus. Foliage will play a supporting role, covering mechanics on floating and suspended chicken wire installations, allowing the focal flowers to exude their romantic allure. Vessels, selected with precision, will feature soft and burnished brassy tones, maintaining a low profile to foster guest experience at long tables, exuding a sense of approachable exclusivity. This trend promises to elevate the aesthetic of weddings in 2024, creating an enchanting atmosphere of timeless elegance.

The “Evenfall” trend, inspired by the breathtaking canvas of an evening sky, comes full circle to its theme of twilight’s tender moments. Drawing from the ethereal glow of fleshy peach-hued roses, this trend encapsulates the essence of the evenfall time of day. Whether for retail flower arrangements or designs for luxury weddings, the transition to “Evenfall” involves a mindful selection of flowers and foliage. This trend promises to infuse warmth and sophistication, creating an enchanting atmosphere that transcends fleeting moments into canon moment.

Trend 5; ANTE MERIDIAN

PM flowers
PM flowers

In homage to that elusive sense of genius that surfaces long after the sun has set, the “Ante Meridian” floral trend is born from the enchantment that unfolds in the studio after midnight. It draws its energy from our counterparts in the Southern Hemisphere, who burst to life while those in the northern half of the world sleeps in winter’s embrace. Our trend forecasters have predicted a pull toward avant-garde Australian-style blooms in 2024.

Picture the “Ante Meridian” style as a polychromatic palette featuring rich gem tones, a captivating sea of flashing neon lights pulling you in. Designers curating this trend seamlessly weave luxurious orchids, larger-than-life garden and reflexed roses, and towering spires of foxtail lilies into their arrangements and installations, throwing out dominant rules of scale followed by designers in North America. It’s not just about the colors; achieving this look demands a harmonious dance paying equal attention to the presence of draping, swirling, reaching, fluttering and dispersed shapes within individual compositions, often leading to a larger overall theme.

The “Ante Meridian” trend becomes the ideal vessel for designing floral masterpieces at branded pop-ups, trendy bar spaces and captivating floral art displays for print media. Get ready to witness a floral revolution in which creativity takes the lead and rules are mere suggestions. “Ante Meridian” is set to redefine the floral fashion landscape in the most extraordinary way.

American Floral Trends: Wedding Applications https://floristsreview.com/2020-21-american-floral-trends-forecast-wedding-applications/ Tue, 07 Apr 2020 13:00:36 +0000 http://floristsreview.com/?p=19521

“Welcome to Florists’ Review’s Wedding Edition of the American Floral Trends Forecast 2020-21.”

In this installment, our team of expert floral designers and trends consultants showcase applications of this year’s four new trends to wedding design.

On the following pages, you will see wedding interpretations for the “Metropolitan,” “Promenade,” “Exploration” and “Terratory” trend aesthetics. Because there are such vast and saturated multimedia platforms from which to source ideas and inspirations today, we curated these vignettes exclusively for professional floral designers, to be an integral tool and vision board for you to take your wedding designs and bridal consultations to the next level.

METROPOLITAN

“Ranunculus Tulipa Rosa Anemone Scabiosa Lathyrus Freesia Hydrangea”

Thanks to its Art Nouveau decorative style influences – dramatic curved lines, asymmetrical forms, intense colors and inspiration from natural elements such as flowers and insects – the lavish “Metropolitan” trend offers brides numerous floral possibilities for creating weddings and receptions centered on refined and sophisticated self-expression. Brides drawn to this aesthetic will appreciate the color play between cool hues contrasted with bright greens and coral, along with muted antique gold tones that work any time of year.

From attention-commanding wearable compositions to textural monochromatic bouquets and architectural cakes, this trend advances Art Nouveau inspirations to wedding florals that convey individuality with a worldly sense of style and big-city living.

PROMENADE

“ Rosa, garden Rosa, hybrid tea Lilium Gerbera Zantedeschia”

As the lines between “something old and something new” blur, the “Promenade” trend gently ushers brides down an aisle of choices replete with soft ribbons, muted colors, timeless embellishments and elegant textures. With influences from Great Britain’s Edwardian Era (soft colors and subtle, graceful design elements) and France’s Beaux-Arts architecture (order, formality, grandiosity and elaborate ornamentation), this trend aesthetic repurposes florals and the romance of bygone bridal pageantry in a way that feels alive, fresh and modern again.

Golden honey hues, along with wedding palette favorites like blush, peach, sand and taupe, provide brides with a range of color choices that appeal to those who appreciate tradition and nostalgia with an overlay of present-day updates. This is seen in exquisite garden-rose-packed bouquets, romantic centerpieces and textured personal compositions. For couples who describe themselves as modernly classic, this trend can showcase their personalities in all aspects of their wedding flowers and décor.

EXPLORATION

“Craspedia Phalaenopsis Dahlia Gomphrena Paeonia Equisetum”

Who says brides have to carry wedding bouquets? Or arrive in a limo instead of an orange convertible Volkswagen Beetle? Toss those traditions and other wedding customs aside for couples who want more vibrant and expressive ways to articulate their wedding stories. The “Exploration” trend marries an ultramodern color palette of tangerine, yellow and red with fuchsia and iced-blue into a broad range of floral and botanical options. Texture also plays a key role in adding vitality to boutonnières, bouquets and centerpieces.

This narrative is for brides and grooms with unconventional and adventurous sides, who want unexpected décor and features at their wedding ceremonies and related festivities. From destination weddings to themed “I dos” and everything in between, this trend is for those seeking true self-expression with fewer boundaries and much more personality.

TERRATORY

“Chamelaucium Rosa Zinnia Rosmarinus Cotinus Leucospermum”

Colorations as nature intended of red clay, deep maroon, navy blue and herbal greens connote the “Terratory” trend, derived from the harmony and elements found in nature. This aesthetic embraces the endless potential of earthly flowers and foliages combined with organic elements. Simply put, “Terratory” is a love letter to both nature and those who incorporate nature into their daily lifestyles.
Since this trend epitomizes one’s connection with nature and organic living, couples are intrinsically drawn to outdoor weddings, garden-style bouquets and “just-picked” wearables find “Terratory” botanicals and hues to be obvious choices. Look at any composition in this trend, and you’ll notice that its hallmark will be something organically beautiful – ideal for couples who prefer natural aesthetics over things more deliberate or unnatural.

Metropolitan https://floristsreview.com/metropolitan/ Thu, 09 Jan 2020 04:48:33 +0000 http://floristsreview.com/?p=15945

Nouveau Thinking The distinct bloom forms and rich hues of Iris, Delphinium and coral peonies denote the flourishing trend of “Metropolitan.” Strongly inspired by the Art Nouveau decorative style (1890-1910), which was characterized by dramatic curved lines, asymmetrical forms, intense colors and inspiration from natural elements such as flowers and insects, this modern-day aesthetic reimagines and energizes a new decade of floral design. Its trend personality and design signatures are uniquely distinguished by strong lines and sinuous curves, sumptuous textures, intricate details and notable cool color combinations.
The key florals and foliages of “Metropolitan,” with its powerful hues of blue and contrasting colors of bright green and coral, signal expressions of vibrant and upbeat city life. The trend’s color palette also includes muted antique gold tones, which elevate its sophisticated styling. Element applications burgeon with ornamental embellishments, modernized Art Nouveau patterns and metal accents, along with flowery and organic tendril-like lines.

Promenade https://floristsreview.com/promenade/ Wed, 08 Jan 2020 04:51:54 +0000 http://floristsreview.com/?p=15947

Curating Legacies A leisure stroll from the past into the present sparks a revival of floral design sense and sensibilities with stirring new applications previously associated with the late 1800s and early 1900s. Soft color palettes and subtle and graceful design elements reminiscent of Great Britain’s Edwardian Era (1901-1910) and France’s Beaux-Arts architecture (characterized by order, formality, grandiosity and elaborate ornamentation) are reinterpreted for today’s modern era, making “Promenade” compositions relevant, new and ageless.
This trend’s color narrative tells a story of light pastels and golden honey hues that cast warmth with colors dominated by peach, blush, taupe and sand. With colorations and key botanicals, such as Wabara Garden Roses’ ‘Miyabi’ variety and fringed tulips, this trend conveys messages of new beginnings and timeless décor. “Promenade” blends the relaxed, unstructured and feminine details of the Edwardian Era – such as flowing ribbons, ruffles and lace – with lush and textural flowers to create exuberant and luxurious floral compositions, from garden style to majestic.

Exploration https://floristsreview.com/exploration/ Tue, 07 Jan 2020 04:53:14 +0000 http://floristsreview.com/?p=15949

Creative Mining Emboldened to experiment and chart new approaches to color theory, floral varieties and the creative unknown, “Exploration” is an adventure into the eclectic and fast-moving world powered by innovation and visual design trailblazers. Where avant-garde fashion, extreme games and pop culture intersect with uncharted creativity, this aesthetic embraces the celebration of self-expression and next-gen thinking. It harnesses the spaces, literally and figuratively, where creative thrill-seekers feel they must go.“Exploration” tells its story best in asymmetrical and floating compositions that utilize dynamic color applications of vibrant yellow and tangerine, iced-blue and fuchsia along with bold reds. The curious and chic forms and textures and vibrant color spectrum reflected by botanicals that intrigue with nontraditional blooms, shapes and hues, such as Craspedia, Celosia, cushion Gerbera, Kalanchoe and Aralia, spark an ultramodern vibe and cutting-edge designs.

Terratory https://floristsreview.com/terratory/ Mon, 06 Jan 2020 04:55:44 +0000 http://floristsreview.com/?p=15951

Fields to Florists All things earthly and organic culminate in a bucolic aesthetic that turns the page on a new chapter of design influenced by the American Grown and locally grown flower movements. This trend advances innate desires to emulate, and sometimes exaggerate, the plethora of designs already found in nature. It firmly reiterates the important connection between Mother Nature and mankind, and it nurtures a vast array of emotions for those drawn to a natural aesthetic and its creative possibilities.
True to its nature-inspired name, the “Terratory” earthly color palette exudes natural colorations found in freshly exposed red clay, fields of Protea, green variations from just-picked herbs, and dark contrasting navy and maroon. Additionally, textural cues and layered petal formations from species and varieties of Dahlia, Zinnia, Hydrangea, Banksia, Leucadendron and cottage yarrow send subtle reminders of these botanicals’ natural terrain in all manner of floral designs, from garden-inspired headpieces and ribbon-bound hand-tied bouquets to wreaths, compositions in fruit-encased vessels and more.
