Dried Flowers: The Boho Staple

Dried flowers continue to be a must-have for 2025 weddings, offering a natural, timeless aesthetic that fits beautifully with boho, rustic, or vintage themes. These flowers are prized for their texture, warm tones, and longevity, allowing them to serve as both stunning wedding décor and meaningful keepsakes long after the celebration.
Why is this trend emerging?
According to Vogue, dried flowers are gaining traction due to their sustainability and versatility, allowing brides to create arrangements that last beyond the wedding day. With an emphasis on environmental responsibility, many couples are turning to dried flowers to reduce waste while achieving the same elegant look.
Why we love this trend: Dried flowers are not only eco-friendly, but they also offer a unique charm and texture that fresh flowers cannot replicate. Their durability means your beautiful bouquet or arch can be cherished as a lasting memory.
Popular flowers: Pampas grass, lavender, and preserved roses.
Styling tip: For a more dynamic arrangement, mix dried flowers with fresh blooms to create depth, whether in a bouquet, ceremony backdrop, or reception centrepiece.

Sustainable and Local Blooms

Sustainability is at the forefront of 2025 wedding trends. Brides are increasingly choosing local, seasonal flowers that support local growers and reduce the carbon footprint associated with long-distance flower imports. This trend not only reflects an eco-conscious mindset but also ensures that your flowers are fresh, vibrant, and uniquely tied to your season.
Why is this trend gaining momentum?
As Bridal Guide highlights, UK brides are opting for flowers that are in season during their wedding month. This not only supports sustainability but also allows for more affordable options.
Why we love this trend: Choosing local, seasonal flowers is a beautiful way to support the environment and your community while ensuring your blooms are fresh and tailored to your wedding's time of year.
Popular seasonal flowers: Peonies (spring/summer), dahlias (autumn), and hellebores (winter).
Styling tip: Pair seasonal flowers with greenery like eucalyptus or ivy for a natural, lush aesthetic that works for both indoor and outdoor venues.
Wildflower Bouquets and Loose Arrangements

For those who love the "just-picked" look, wildflower bouquets are one of 2025's most charming trends. Offering a relaxed, whimsical vibe, wildflower bouquets make a bold statement while remaining effortlessly chic.
Why is this trend so popular?
The Knot calls wildflower arrangements the epitome of rustic elegance, offering a carefree, organic vibe that perfectly suits outdoor weddings.
Why we love this trend: Wildflower bouquets have an easy, breezy charm that feels both romantic and timeless. The uniqueness of each bloom makes every bouquet feel special and personal.
Key flowers: Cornflowers, poppies, and sweet peas.
Styling tip: To keep things cohesive, stick to a colour palette that complements your overall wedding theme. Wildflowers work perfectly in garden settings, barn venues, or countryside locations.
Bold Colour Blocking and Monochromatic Designs

While soft neutrals and pastels will always be a wedding staple, 2025 is also set to embrace bold, vibrant hues. Colour blocking, where one or two solid colours dominate the floral design, is making waves for couples who want to make a statement.
Why is this trend taking off?
Brides reports that this trend is gaining popularity because it allows couples to make a strong, modern statement without overwhelming the space. By using large, bold blooms and minimal greenery, florists can create an eye-catching display that’s both contemporary and chic.
Why we love this trend: Colour blocking is an opportunity to inject personality and excitement into your wedding décor. The bold contrast of rich colours will instantly elevate your space and create a lasting impression.
Key flowers: Coral peonies, fuchsia roses, and violet dahlias.
Styling tip: Keep the design minimal by focusing on a single colour family, such as varying shades of pink or purple, to create a harmonious yet bold look.
Oversized Floral Installations

One of the most dramatic trends for 2025 is oversized floral installations. These large-scale designs create a striking visual impact and are ideal for couples who want to make a bold statement with their décor.
Why is this trend rising?
WeddingWire notes that oversized floral designs, like flower arches and hanging installations, are becoming increasingly popular as they create a wow factor and set the tone for the entire celebration.
Why we love this trend: There’s nothing quite like the drama and beauty of an oversized floral installation. It adds instant glamour and creates a jaw-dropping moment for your guests.
Popular installations: Flower arches, floral chandeliers, and hanging centrepieces.
Styling tip: Mix fresh and dried flowers to create layers of texture. Cascading greenery such as ivy or ferns can add depth and enhance the visual impact of your installation.
Personalised Bouquets: A Unique Touch

Brides are increasingly choosing to personalise their wedding bouquets to reflect their stories and unique tastes. Whether it’s incorporating a flower from the bride’s childhood garden or using blooms that hold special significance, this trend adds a deep, emotional layer to floral arrangements.
Why is this trend taking hold?
According to Martha Stewart Weddings, couples are leaning into personalisation to make their wedding day even more meaningful. A personalised bouquet can reflect the couple’s love story and provide a cherished memory long after the big day.
Why we love this trend: A personalised bouquet is a beautiful way to honour your love story and celebrate the meaningful connections that have shaped your relationship.
Styling tip: Work with your florist to select flowers that hold personal significance, whether that’s your favourite bloom, a flower with symbolic meaning, or a memory of a loved one.
