Top Trends for Wedding Flowers in 2009

I'd like to thank Cori at Elegala for emailing me over the following information on the top 2009 trends for wedding flowers. What flowers are you planning to use for your wedding? I'd love to hear.

from Elegala . . .
Today's brides are following the old adages, "less is more" and "use your imagination". The sayings may be cliche – but the latest trends in wedding flowers are anything but.

Daring Colors:
Gone are the days of adhering to light pastels and muted shades in wedding decorations. Today's brides are opting for bold and interesting pairings of colors in their wedding flowers and floral schemes. Not afraid of mixing purples and orange's, the post-millennium color palette is expanding.

More than Just Flowers:
Mix it up a bit by incorporating produce. One of the hot trends in wedding flowers is arrangements featuring fruits, herbs and even veggies as a playful and fun approach. Their naturally vibrant colors coincide with the daring color trend. Many brides are also turning to the woods for inspiration. Green grasses add dimension and structure and can elicit a warm, summery feeling.

Dynamic Tables:
Table arrangements are also becoming more dynamic. Instead of conforming to identical floral arrangements on each table, some brides are using different containers, varying the heights, or grouping an assortment of low centerpieces together.

Keep it Simple:
Gone are the days of overpowering floral arrangements adorned with excess filler flowers. Today's brides opt for a more natural and tailored look to their wedding flowers. One bouquet style rising in popularity is the hand tied bouquet. The fresh bunch of flowers presents the look of simple elegance that brides desire.

I haven't yet talked with any florists (still early in the planning), but I'd like to have chrysanthemums and asters. These are both classic autumnal flowers (we're getting married in October) and my birth flower and my fiance's respectively.

It's true, the colors for this year are a lot more bold, vibrant, and daring. We're seeing a lot of brides designing custom labels using very colorful color palettes. In the past, we've seen one or two bold colors with a neutral overtone but with 2009 it's all out the window!

Personally, I love the brighter, more lively colors. Bring it on!

I like the fact the more people are using bright colours. It shows a brightness towards the future and it makes people happy. I think that having different pieces on each table is a good idea too because it adds some variety to each table.
