If you're planning a wedding, you're entering a season full of creative freedom, personal expression, and elevated floral artistry. At Kim Starr Wise Floral Events, we've been closely following the trends shaping this year’s most beautiful celebrations, and we’re excited to share what’s inspiring us and our clients right now.

These are the floral design directions we’re seeing take center stage this year, and they offer something for every couple, whether you're dreaming of timeless elegance or modern edge.

Garden and Meadow-Inspired Arrangements

This year, floral designs are leaning more organic, loose, and nature-driven. Meadow-style arrangements, those that feel like they’ve been gathered from a wild, blooming field, are everywhere. With airy greenery, soft texture, and asymmetrical shapes, these arrangements create a sense of effortless romance.

And yes, some of our foliage really is foraged from our own backyards.

We love incorporating this style into ceremony backdrops, garden-style bouquets, and table designs that feel fresh, relaxed, and personal.

Bold, Unexpected Color Palettes

Neutral tones will always be classic, but in 2025, couples are embracing color like never before. We’re seeing rich and unexpected pairings: think burnt orange with lavender, mustard yellow with soft blue, or coral with deep wine.

These dynamic palettes allow couples to express their personalities and create a vibrant, memorable atmosphere. We work closely with clients to build custom color stories that are fresh, balanced, and completely unique.

Minimalist Florals with Meaning

Intentional simplicity is trending in a powerful way. Couples are focusing on quality over quantity, selecting a few meaningful blooms or statement pieces rather than overloading their designs. A single striking orchid, a handful of symbolic stems, or a refined ceremony installation can carry enormous impact.

This approach allows us to highlight the natural beauty of the flowers and tell a personal story without overwhelming the space.

Floral Sculptures and Hanging Installations

Couples are looking to transform their venues into immersive floral experiences. One of the most dramatic trends this year is the use of suspended florals. Couples are opting more and more for hanging installations and sculptural ceiling pieces that elevate the space and draw the eye upward.

Below, you’ll see photos of the floral collaboration we did with local neon artist Big Sexy Neon for Olivia and Justin’s wedding at the Audubon Tea Room. These types of designs create unforgettable focal points and give us the opportunity to work with flowers in completely new ways. They're ideal for venues with height, open ceilings, or modern architectural features.

Floral Accessories and Wearables

Florals are no longer just for the bouquet and boutonnière. We're creating more wearable florals than ever. When done right, flower crowns are gorgeous, whimsical, even Shakespearian. We loved designing the below flower crown for an intimate elopement in nature.

These personal touches add softness, style, and storytelling to the wedding day look. They're perfect for boho weddings, fashion-forward brides, and anyone who wants to make their florals feel more integrated and meaningful.

Personalization is Everything

The most important theme we’ve seen this year is individuality. More than ever, couples are asking for florals that reflect who they are culturally, emotionally, and stylistically.

Wedding flowers should feel personal, not just pretty. That’s why we take the time to understand each couple’s story, favorite colors, special memories, and aesthetic goals. The result isa floral design that truly feels like you.
