INSPIRED BY | FLOWERS

This week we're all about flowers, a wedding essential! A wedding without flowers is like vows without an "I do" …well not exactly, but they are one of our favorite things. We're always so inspired by our couples' floral choices and how they integrate their style into their bouquets. Some are chic and trendy. Others are classic and traditional. No matter the decision, flowers are a focal point on your big day.

As a celebration of all things floral, we've rounded up some of our all-time favorite boutiques, prepare to fall in love with these beautiful blooms.

2020 WEDDING TREND FORECAST

2020 is here and with the new year comes new trends. We've done the research (we're weddingologists, thank you very much) and things like eco-friendly details, color mixing, and intimate weddings will be all over the wedding scene this year.

As you scroll through this post you might be thinking: I like and may want to incorporate one or two of these trends on my wedding day, but is that going to make my wedding trendy? Well, yes and no. Sure, your wedding will be on-trend (congrats you have great taste!), but that's not some awful kiss of death. Many brides stress over the idea of their wedding looking timeless, but the truth is no wedding is truly timeless. Wedding dresses, florals, venues, and even decor details follow the trends of the time. What we like now, even in their most classic and beautiful forms will be "dated" one day and that's okay. Your wedding day should be a reflection of what you and your spouse love and want to live on in your hearts and photo albums for decades. You do you, boo.

Here are 12 of our favorite 2020 wedding trends; take a look, take notes, and get trendy!

VASES

The best way to dress up any space is…. yup, you guessed it! FLORALS. And we can’t have florals without a great vase to work with. A clear vase makes it easy to use anywhere, anytime no matter what your style may be. Bring those vases home and use them to dress up your favorite space.

INSPIRATION | GREENERY (PANTONE'S COLOR OF THE YEAR)

Let's just say Pantone's announcement of the 2017 color of the year wasn't a revelation to us. We have allllllllways loved greenery. It gives a lush, organic quality to floral arrangements and it totally makes your budget go further!!

We love when our brides are open to using greenery in creative ways because it's a beautiful way to add special little touches throughout your wedding day without breaking the bank!

Let's dive into some of our favorite ways to use greenery to make your wedding the garden fantasy of your dreams!

Garden Maids. A mix of textural greenery makes a gorgeous bridesmaid bouquet, especially if you are trying to unify a mix of dress styles and colors.

Trailing Vines. Delicate greenery makes a gorgeous backdrop for special areas of your wedding like behind the cake or even as a backdrop for your vows!

Branching Out. These tall centerpieces of all greenery are an incredible way to draw the eye up in your reception space and keep the organic garden style you love. Tall centerpieces tend to go traditional with what we like to call "hydrangea balls". If you love the organic, sculptural style more, this is an amazing option!

Down the Aisle. We love the trend of blocking off the aisle to politely and beautifully keep well-meaning guests from hopping out in the aisle to take cell phone pictures. With the popularity of unplugged weddings growing every second, this is the perfect way to remind guests to enjoy the ceremony and not play photographer.

Delicate Touches. Light greenery tucked around candles, cake stands, family photo displays, and even the buffet line is an amazingly inexpensive way to really dress up for utilitarian areas of your wedding!

Yeah, we couldn't love greenery more! What do you think of this trend? Love it? Hate it? Share below!
