3. Fruits and Vegetables in Wedding Decor

Move over traditional florals—2025 is bringing a fresh take on wedding tablescapes with the use of fruits and vegetables in décor. This bold yet timeless trend adds texture, color, and a touch of organic charm to any setting. Imagine lush tablescapes adorned with rich-hued figs, artichokes, plums, and sprigs of greenery, creating a feast for the eyes before the meal even begins.

Incorporating produce into your wedding design not only amplifies the visual appeal but also introduces a sense of abundance and warmth. Paired with elegant details like gold flatware and taper candles, fruits and vegetables effortlessly elevate the tablescape into a work of art.

On the left, our Cameron Collection is beautifully complemented by vibrant fruits like grapefruits, pears, kiwis, and green grapes, seamlessly enhancing the colors of the floral arrangement. On the right, a single slice of orange paired with bright bougainvillea petals and lush greenery adds a fresh and distinctive touch, proving that even small details can elevate your wedding decor.

4. Dreamy Drapery Installations

Drapery is embracing a whimsical and romantic vibe for 2025 weddings, with soft, gauzy fabrics adorning ceilings and walls to create ethereal, dreamlike settings. Celebrity event planner Mindy Weiss highlights this trend, saying, “Draping with pick-ups creates a romantic and billowy effect that’s much more dynamic than straight lines.”

At Something Borrowed Blooms, our ready-to-use decor and floral accents make it effortless for couples to incorporate this enchanting trend into their special day. For example:

- SBBlooms Insider, Karley, showcased the dreamy drapery aesthetic beautifully through her ceremony arch adorned with floral swags and large centerpieces.

- Cascading ribbons on bridal bouquets and airy drapery installations create a magical, cohesive look that embodies this 2025 trend.

5. Cake Meadows and Vignettes

Dessert displays are flourishing in 2025, with cake meadows and vignettes stealing the spotlight as stunning centerpieces. Influencer Marlo Veillon set the perfect example by adorning her cake table with lush garlands like the Jane Garland and Premium Pink Cherry Blossom Garland. Highlights include:

Floral meadows: Large, stand-alone arrangements available in select collections that can be effortlessly placed in front of your cake table to craft a blooming meadow effect.

Garlands: Artfully draped and intertwined garlands create a seamless, cohesive design to elevate your cake display.

Wedding Planner uses Kate Collection at Fall Wedding

@canyonmoonphoto

Every wedding we’re a part of tells a unique love story, and Samantha and Bradley’s day was no exception. From their charming small-town beginnings to the vibrancy of their wedding day, this couple’s journey has inspired us. Today, we’re thrilled to share their story, florals, and details to show how Something Borrowed Blooms brought their vision to life.

The Planning

Samantha and Bradley’s love story began in a quaint Texas town with one blinking yellow light. They met as schoolmates, though it took years for their romance to blossom. Fast forward to their first date, an effortless conversation that lasted hours, and Samantha knew Bradley was the one. Together, they built a home, adopted two adorable fur babies, and embarked on their journey to forever.

As the owner of Raylee Jo Events, Samantha planned her wedding with ease, booking all vendors within 60 days. She envisioned a bold, elegant design with vintage charm, prioritizing budget and sustainability. Initially drawn to fresh flowers, Samantha found they couldn’t deliver the vibrancy she wanted within her budget—making Something Borrowed Blooms the perfect solution.

The Blooms

For Samantha, wedding flowers were more than just décor—they were deeply symbolic. Initially drawn to a local florist, she realized that fresh flowers couldn’t achieve the vibrancy she wanted without exceeding her budget. Discovering Something Borrowed Blooms was a game-changer.

When the Kate Collection launched weeks before her wedding, Samantha knew it was meant to be. The collection featured stunning sprigs of larkspur, her late brother’s birth flower, making it a sentimental and perfect choice. She swapped her original Kinsley order for Kate and never looked back.

Samantha loved the concept of renting flowers, not only for the cost savings but also for the sustainability aspect. Knowing she could eventually purchase her bridal bouquet as a keepsake sealed the deal.

The Details

Samantha’s bridal party was a vision of elegance. Her bridesmaids wore different shades of blue silk dresses, complementing the vibrant hues of their Kate Collection bridesmaid bouquets. The groomsmen embraced a classic, rustic style in neutral beige suit coats and cowboy hats, while standing out with Kate boutonnieres—a subtle yet striking nod to the wedding’s floral theme.

The couple’s ceremony space was adorned with Kate floral meadows and beautiful floral columns, effortlessly created with garlands from the Kate Collection. The set-up was not only a stunning backdrop for their vows but also served a dual purpose. After the ceremony, the arches were moved behind the bridal party table at the reception, creating a cohesive design that carried through the day. Large and vaseless Kate centerpieces were placed throughout the reception on dining tables.

The Review

Samantha describes her experience with Something Borrowed Blooms as “seamless.” The website made it easy to find exactly what she needed, and the team was helpful in ensuring her order was just right. When her flowers arrived, she and her maid of honor checked the inventory, fluffed the arrangements, and prepared everything for the big day.

Reflecting on her choice, Samantha said, “Using Something Borrowed Blooms was the absolute best decision for our wedding florals. It was cheaper, more sustainable, and so easy to return. I’ll be telling all my friends and future brides about SBBlooms!”

Congratulations to the happy couple—may your love continue to grow and bloom!

Something Borrowed Blooms’ Stella Collection shines at content creators' romantic winter wedding ceremony

@cassiejeanphotography

Weddings are a celebration of love and individuality and at Something Borrowed Blooms, we’re honored to be part of the moments that make your special day unforgettable. Recently, we spoke with Hannah Chambers, editor, content creator, and social media manager, about her journey to the altar and how Something Borrowed Blooms helped bring her wedding vision to life.

The Planning

Planning a wedding is no small feat, and for Hannah and her now-wife, Peggy, it was a journey full of intentional decisions. Hannah recalls the excitement and challenges of planning a two-year engagement:

"I had a document that listed every single floral moment, from bud vases on side tables in the lounge area by the bar to the reception tablescapes."

Their venue, a vintage-inspired hotel in Upstate New York, became the foundation of their design choices. The virtual tour feature on Wedding Wire allowed Hannah and Peggy to envision every detail, down to the placement of each floral arrangement.

But it wasn’t just spreadsheets and checklists that made the process special. With the help of a virtual styling session from Something Borrowed Blooms’ Social Media Manager, Abbey, they created a breathtaking broken arch floral installation for their wedding ceremony. The floral install became the highlight of their wedding photos and a labor of love assembled by Hannah’s mother.

The Blooms

Hannah and Peggy’s floral journey with Something Borrowed Blooms was one of discovery and evolution. Like many brides, Hannah began her search with budget in mind but soon found herself captivated by the sustainable and versatile offerings our rent and return wedding flowers provide.

After exploring multiple collections (and changing their minds a few times!), the couple ultimately fell head over heels for the Stella Collection. Its timeless yet modern vibe was the perfect match for their venue’s vintage charm and their wedding day aesthetic.

"I think my favorite piece might be the Stella Posy, which has a burgundy peony, a vanilla rosebud, and dusty miller leaves. We put lots of Stella Posies in our ceremony installation, and something about them still catches my eye when I look at photos."

Their choice was more than just aesthetic. Sustainability played a significant role in their decision. Hannah found comfort in knowing that the florals and décor from their wedding would continue to create memories for other couples, aligning beautifully with their values.

The Details

From start to finish, Hannah describes her experience with Something Borrowed Blooms as seamless and rewarding—not just as a bride but as a content creator passionate about storytelling. The ability to preview arrangements, adapt plans, and contribute to a more sustainable wedding industry stood out as highlights of her journey.

"Finding SBBlooms so early on in the process really helped guide my decisions throughout planning. Finding a more sustainable option for florals had me looking out for ways to be more mindful in other areas."

Hannah’s thoughtful approach extended beyond flowers. She embraced sustainable choices for her bridal wardrobe, from re-wearable swimsuits to lab-grown diamond wedding bands, inspired by her decision to rent florals.

Even after her wedding, Hannah remains an active member of the SBBlooms Insider community, sharing advice and inspiration with other couples and celebrating the creative ways others use our florals.

"I’ve been married for over a year, and I’m still in the Facebook group! A choice I initially made to save money ended up becoming a creative outlet and a way to build community."

Hannah’s story is a testament to the magic that happens when intentional planning meets creative solutions. At Something Borrowed Blooms, we’re honored to be part of love stories like Hannah and Peggy’s, offering couples the opportunity to celebrate in style while making sustainable, budget-friendly choices.

Choosing a wedding color scheme is one of the most significant decisions you'll make while planning your big day. The color scheme is taken in by guests attending your wedding and lives on through time in memories and photographs. A timeless wedding color scheme ensures your wedding photos remain elegant and stylish for years to come, allowing you to look back on your special day without feeling that it has aged or gone out of style. Let's explore classic combinations that are versatile and can adapt to various themes and settings, providing a solid foundation for a beautiful and cohesive wedding aesthetic.

Classic White and Green

Why White and Green Work Together

White and green are timeless color combinations that exude elegance and versatility. White symbolizes purity, innocence, and new beginnings, making it a perfect choice for weddings. Green, representing growth and harmony, complements white beautifully. This combination works well in any season and wedding venue, whether it's a rustic outdoor ceremony or a sophisticated indoor affair. The color palette is natural and organic, making it an obviously timeless colorway.

Styling Tips for White and Green Weddings

Incorporating white and green into various aspects of your wedding can create a fresh and natural look. Here are some ideas:

Wedding Flowers: Opt for white flowers like roses, peonies, and lilies paired with lush greenery such as eucalyptus, ferns, and ivy. 

For white and green wedding flower inspiration, explore The Jane Collection, our number one best seller all year long. You truly can't go wrong with this classic color combination — countless real couples agree! 

Table Settings: Use white or natural color tablecloths with green centerpieces, napkins, or table runners to add just enough color.

Attire: Any shade of green can be timeless for your bridesmaids. Choose a deeper hue for winter months and a lighter hue for summertime, or defy the rules and choose the hue of green that your heart desires. Your green of choice can be used for your bridesmaids or groomsmen, as well. 

Elegant Blush and Gold 

The Charm of Blush and Gold

Blush and gold is a romantic and sophisticated color combination. Blush, with its soft pink hue, adds a gentle, romantic touch, while gold brings in luxury and warmth. This combination is ideal for both vintage and modern wedding themes, offering a timeless appeal that can easily adapt to different styles and settings.

Decor Ideas for Blush and Gold Weddings

Here are some ways to incorporate blush and gold into your wedding decor:

Wedding Flowers: Incorporating this wedding color palette into your wedding floral arrangement is easy. Most floral varieties, including roses, peonies, hydrangeas, and more, are available in a soft blush or pale pink.

For blush and pink floral inspiration, explore our Charlotte Collection for a beautiful pop of pink. If you're looking for something with more muted pink and blush, try our Bianca or Wren Collections.

Bridal Party Attire: Select bridesmaids dresses in a variety of soft blush and pink shades, or choose a complementary color for the entire bridal party to coordinate. Accessorize with delicate gold-toned jewelry.

Invitations: This is a great place to pull in gold! Choose an invitation with gold foil accents for an elegant touch.

To avoid overwhelming the setting, balance these colors with neutral tones like ivory and creams. 

Navy and Burgundy

The Bold Appeal of Navy and Burgundy

Navy and burgundy create a striking and timeless combination. Navy, a sophisticated and classic color, pairs beautifully with burgundy, which adds a rich, dramatic flair. This combination perfectly represents fall wedding colors and winter wedding colors, offering a warm and inviting feel while maintaining a sense of elegance.

Creating a Cohesive Look with Navy and Burgundy

To integrate navy and burgundy throughout your wedding, consider the following tips:

Floral Arrangements: Focus on burgundy and red wedding flowers like dahlias, roses and hydrangeas.

For burgundy wedding floral arrangement inspiration, take a look at our Kimpton Collection for a variety of rich red hues, or consider our Stella Collection. Both of these floral collections are timeless and beautiful.  

Table Settings: Use navy tablecloths to compliment your burgundy centerpieces. Gold or silver accents can add an extra touch of elegance. Be very intentional with the navy and burgundy color palette, placing each where appropriate and creating a formal yet rustic wedding to remember.

Bridal Party Attire: The wedding attire is a great place to mix the two colors. Bridesmaids can wear burgundy dresses, and groomsmen can wear navy suits, or both bridesmaids and groomsmen can wear navy attire to allow the burgundy wedding flowers to really pop. 

Be sure to mix in neutral colors like cream or grey to balance the boldness of navy and burgundy, creating a harmonious and sophisticated look.

Soft Pastels

The Delicate Beauty of Pastel Color Schemes

Pastel color schemes, including soft shades like lavender, peach, and mint, create a light  and romantic atmosphere. These colors are delicate and timeless, making them suitable for spring and summer weddings. Pastels bring a light and airy feel, perfect for an outdoor wedding or elegant indoor celebration.

Pastel Wedding Decor Ideas

Incorporate pastels into your wedding decor with these ideas:

Wedding Flowers: For a dreamy look, use a mix of pastel flowers such as lavender, peach roses, and mint foliage. You may also opt for a monochromatic design by choosing one color and incorporating a full range of shades. Pastels are easy to incorporate in wedding flowers since there are always in-season varieties available in these shades.

For pastel wedding flower inspiration, explore another one of our best sellers, The Millie Collection. This delicate floral collection focuses on all shades of blue and cream. For a full pastel design, try our Cameron Collection or The Eloise Collection.

Table Linens: Choose pastel-colored tablecloths, napkins, or runners to add a soft touch to your reception tables.

Bridesmaid Dresses: Dress your bridesmaids in different pastel shades for a coordinated yet dynamic look.

Pastels can also be used in wedding cakes and stationery, adding a cohesive and elegant feel to your wedding decor.

Classic Black and White

The Timelessness of Black and White

The most timeless color scheme of them all. Black and white is a classic choice for weddings, offering an elegant and sophisticated look. This high-contrast combination is suitable for any wedding style, from modern to traditional, creating a timeless and chic atmosphere. It also works anytime of year for a nighttime celebration!

Styling a Black and White Wedding

Create a chic and elegant black and white wedding with these tips:

Wedding Flowers: Focus your wedding flowers on mostly floral elements, and include less greenery to maximize the impact of the white. Explore bridal bouquet styles and choose from roses, peonies, orchids, and many other floral varieties in white and cream.

For wedding flower inspiration to compliment your black and white wedding, we suggest The Wren Collection or The Audrey Collection. Both of these wedding flower designs feature mostly white florals with little to no greenery for high contrast and big impact.

 Attire: The bride obviously wears the classic white gown, while the groom and groomsmen wear a black tuxedos or suits. Bridesmaids in all black dresses are as timeless as it gets. And your bridesmaids will thank you for a dress that can be worn again!

Venue: Select a venue that fits your vision for a black and white color scheme. Think black and white floor tiles or classic white walls and clean architecture to compliment your timeless color palette. Add metallic accents like gold or silver for extra glamor.

Invitations and details shots: Choose black and white invitations with elegant typography and minimalistic designs. For detail shots, opt for high contrast of white on black and vice versa.

This timeless color scheme ensures sophisticated and elegant vintage weddings that will never go out of style. 

Romantic Lavender and Grey

The Subtle Elegance of Lavender and Grey

Lavender and grey create a romantic and calming color combination. Lavender adds a soft, romantic touch, while grey brings balance and sophistication. This combination is perfect for spring and summer weddings, offering a delicate and elegant atmosphere.

Decor Ideas for Lavender and Grey Weddings

Incorporate lavender and grey into your wedding with these ideas:

Floral Arrangements: Use a lavender floral design, including roses and lilacs or anomalies in all shades of purple. You may also consider grey foliage such as dusty miller for a romantic rustic wedding.

Our favorite lavender wedding flowers can be found in The Marlowe Collection. This ombre design features a variety of purple and lavender flowers and is truly stunning. Another favorite is The Taylor Collection, which includes both lavender and grey elements.

Table Settings: Let the lavender flowers take centerstage on your tablescapes, while accenting with purple. Select grey tablecloths with silver accents to pull the colorway together.

Bridesmaid Dresses: Select lavender dresses for your Bridesmaids, and the groom and groomsmen should wear a grey suit with lavender accents.

Speciality Cocktail: For a special touch, consider adding a themed cocktail to the menu. A lavender French 75 cocktail at the reception entrance would be another great way to introduce your theme while delighting guests.

These colors can also be used in wedding cakes and stationery, creating a cohesive and elegant feel for your wedding decor.

Introducing the newest premium silk wedding flower collection from Something Borrowed Blooms: the breathtaking Kate Collection. Featuring a delicate mix of pastel-hued blooms, soft pink and peach accents, and vibrant blue tones, this collection truly stands out. Our design team had an incredible time bringing these looks to life in our recent launch photoshoot, and we're thrilled to share all the thoughtful details with you to inspire your wedding planning. Follow along to shop the look!

THE WEDDING FLOWERS

Let’s begin with the wedding flowers! Our SBBlooms Insiders Facebook group has been an invaluable source of inspiration for every new collection. With input from our past, present, and future brides, our design team has created the perfect collection for couples seeking soft, multi-colored flowers for their special day.

Minimal pittosporum greenery accentuates delicate pink roses, hydrangeas, peach ranunculus, and larkspur, creating a sophisticated yet fresh look that complements a range of wedding styles, from garden chic to formal.

This full collection has everything you need to complete your ceremony and reception, including two bridal bouquet styles, a coordinating bridesmaid bouquet and posy, and other bridal party arrangements. With various centerpiece options, it’s easy to add height and dimension to your setup, while the floral runner and meadow arrangements serve as stunning statement pieces!

THE LOOK

For this photoshoot, we wanted to ensure the colors of the wardrobe perfectly complemented the florals in the collection. Our goal was to enhance the soft, multi-colored blooms with selections that brought out the beauty of the arrangements. For the bridesmaids, we selected dresses in various styles and shades of green and blue from Lula Kate, creating a harmonious and elegant look. Among the choices, the Key Lime Bengaline color was a standout, offering a fresh, subtle contrast that beautifully highlighted the soft tones of the florals. It was the perfect pairing to complete the vision!

To highlight the classic elegance of this collection, we chose two contrasting yet equally show-stopping dresses from a renowned local Bridal boutique; Oui Jolie. The first was a sleek, drop waist, strapless ballgown, offering a modern twist on a timeless silhouette with clean lines and understated beauty. The second was a timeless long-sleeve lace ball gown, embodying romantic sophistication with intricate lace detailing and a regal, full skirt. Together, these gowns perfectly showcased the versatility and elegance of the collection, creating an unforgettable bridal look for any wedding style.

THE DETAILS

The options for your ceremony setup are truly limitless! For this shoot, we showcased all three variations of the Kate Aisle Markers to create a beautifully coordinated color palette. We lined the aisle with Kate floral meadows and vaseless centerpieces, adding depth to the scene.

The ceremony arch was adorned with the collection’s custom garland, interwoven with our new Baby’s Breath garland, and the focal arch incorporated our newest product, the floral runner. The Kate floral runner packs a big punch with a full, lush display of flowers and effortless install. The floral runner is composed of a flexible foam base with velcro attachments, making it very versatile and easy to install. Together, these three arches created a stunning focal point that tied everything together seamlessly. 

For the reception, design a stunning tablescape by featuring the Kate Grand Centerpieces on stands, with vaseless centerpieces placed between, creating layers of height. Elevate the look by incorporating our beige bud vases, each filled with lifelike yellow and pink rose stems, to enhance the floral display. To maximize your décor, repurpose the floral meadows and centerpieces from the ceremony by using them to adorn the cake table, creating a seamless, cohesive floral moment throughout your space.

We hope you love the Kate Collection as much as we do and that this post has inspired your wedding planning! 

The Eloise and Millie Collections shine together at Georgia Spring Wedding

@awphotoco

Planning a wedding can be an overwhelming experience, filled with countless decisions and last minute details that need to be just right to execute the wedding of your dreams. For SBBlooms Insider, Krista Sims and her now-husband, Daniel, the journey to their perfect spring wedding was made easier and more beautiful with the help of Something Borrowed Blooms. 

Here’s a glimpse into their story and how they crafted their dream wedding with rent and return premium silk flowers.

The Planning

Krista and Daniel first met five years ago in the Emergency Department, where they both worked as ED techs. Their shared passion for helping others led them to nursing school, and eventually, they both became registered nurses. Their love story blossomed amidst the hustle and bustle of the health field, and they decided to make it official and tie the knot in a whimsical spring wedding.

When it came to planning the wedding, Krista knew she wanted something that fit their spring color palette while also having a whimsical, but elegant style. After speaking with several local florists, she realized achieving her vision with fresh flowers would be challenging, especially on a tight budget and the need for seasonal availability of certain flowers. That's when she discovered Something Borrowed Blooms.

The Blooms

Krista was drawn to the ease and convenience of Something Borrowed Blooms, which solved her flower dilemma! The ability to rent exactly what she envisioned and stay within her budget was just what she needed. The quality of the premium silk flowers blew her away, and the option to rent additional decor items like candlesticks and lanterns was a bonus. Not only was Krista impressed, but her other wedding vendors couldn’t believe how real the silk blooms looked and how seamless the rental process was.

Krista rented the Eloise Bridal Bouquet for her bouquet and added a few larkspur stems for subtle hints of blue. The Bridesmaids coordinated perfectly by holding the Eloise Bridesmaid bouquets. Each arrangement was wrapped in a beautiful ivory ribbon to enhance the look of the bouquets. We love how each bridesmaid showcased personality in a variety of pink dresses.

The Ceremony

Krista chose to mix the Eloise and Millie Collections for the ceremony to tie in the blue from her bridal bouquet. The colors of these collections blended beautifully, creating a stunning visual effect that perfectly matched their wedding theme. The ceremony was set inside the venue at Warm Springs with massive windows overlooking the lush green forest. The ceremony flowers looked so realistic that guests were amazed to find out they were not fresh flowers!

Krista covered the provided circular arch by intertwining Millie and Eloise Garlands, with the addition of White Wisteria Garland as a delicate, focal point on the backdrop.

The Reception

The reception continued the ‘garden party’ theme with charming and sophisticated decor. The long dining tables were decorated with an abundance of gold brass tulip candlesticks and gorgeous crystal glass votives paired with eucalyptus garlands. The Eloise large and Grand Centerpieces were also used around the reception space and held up beautifully throughout the day, maintaining their fresh appearance from start to finish.

The Review

Reflecting on the planning process, Krista shared that choosing Something Borrowed Blooms was one of their best wedding decisions. The exclusive Facebook group and the customer service team were incredibly helpful, making the planning process smooth and enjoyable.

The wedding flowers and decor from Something Borrowed Blooms were a standout feature of their wedding day, adding to the overall beauty and magic of the event. Krista highly recommends SBBlooms to couples looking for high-quality, beautiful, and budget-friendly wedding flowers.

In Krista's words, “Overall, we are so happy we chose SBBlooms. It was one of our favorite things from our day. It truly made our day so beautiful!” 

Congratulations, Krista and Daniel! We’re so honored to have been a part of your wedding and can’t wait to be a part of many more events to come.

Quiet Luxury

Taking center stage this season is our reimagined Audrey Collection. This timeless and classic all-white color pallet is simple and understated, with a modern design. Think old-money wedding flowers! Featuring a variety of trending wedding flower arrangements, this collection includes everything needed for a floral-focused wedding day, including floral meadows and runners. These all-new floral arrangements are great for creating effortless wedding installations. 

This season we’re forecasting ‘Epic Installations.’ Bigger and more present than ever before, wedding flowers will be the focal point of the wedding ceremony and reception designs. From voluminous floral arches to grand centerpiece arrangements, no florals will be spared. 

We created this photoshoot floral install with three Audrey Floral Runners and two Audrey Floral Swags spaced between, to create a luscious floral arch. From ceremony to reception, this floral installation can be repurposed to serve double duty! 

The Audrey collection offers endless color palette possibilities. For the fall/winter 2024 season, we selected rich and regal shades of green to create the perfect palette for our monochromatic wedding flowers. By mixing satin patterns and rich velvets we brought our luxurious vision to life. From deep hues or pastels, across the full spectrum of the rainbow, you can’t go wrong with any bridesmaid pairing or color pallet for The Audrey Collection.

Earth Tones Refined

You’ve probably picked up on the Cafe Core trend and we are loving these tones for the wedding day! These rich earthy tones are perfect to set the tone for a lovely fall wedding. The overall aesthetic embodies a refined and modern approach to fall featuring colors like café, dusty mauve, apricot, and sandstone. This palette aligns with 2024 trends toward natural and sophisticated hues.

Featuring Patnone’s color of the year, Peach Fuzz, our Nina Collection is the perfect choice for fall wedding flowers. From personal flowers to reception decor, the collection features coordinating floral elements perfectly fit for an autumn wedding.

For the wedding reception, we introduced fresh seasonal vegetables to the tablescape for added texture and interest. Mixing eggplant, squash, and artichoke with a lush greenery garland and a modern gold candelabra, we achieved an interesting and beautiful centerpiece design that screams fall. 

For the cake, we let the florals take center stage with our all-new Nina Vaseless Centerpieces and Nina cake clusters. Using 4 vaseless centerpieces we created a horseshoe shape around the back of the cake and accented a simple, white cake with cake cluster clipping from our Nina Collection.

Elevated Romance

Our take on elevated romance is perfect for your winter and holiday weddings. It combines modern luxury with a classic romantic feel, emphasizing rich tones, opulent floral arrangements, and refined metallic accents. The color palette prominently features cherry red, ivories, dove grey, and tuxedo black. Red and pink roses from our Kimpton Collection, create a lush, romantic atmosphere. 

We’re seeing a rise in cascading arrangements this wedding season, and The Kimpton Bridal Bouquet is the perfect selection, if this style speaks your language. Cascading arrangements give a dynamic, flowing feel that adds elegance and drama to your wedding day. Pair with modern metallics wardrobe selections for your winter wedding for a perfect combo. We selected bridesmaid dresses from Reverly’s metallic collection to add the glamor we envisioned for this scene and these dresses certainly did not disappoint! Coupled with cascading floral arrangements, these elements create a movement that feels both opulent and contemporary, perfectly balancing tradition with modern trends.

Rich tablescapes with more metallic elements, like silver candle holders and sleek cutlery, paired with classic white linens and napkins tied with black ribbons, add to the design. The setting strikes a balance between ornate and understated luxury, highlighting the kimpton floral centerpieces and strategic use of height with candle placements. Shop our full line of candle rentals here to set a similar mood for your winter wedding.

Draping is another key feature this season! Soft, flowing fabrics create a sense of intimacy and grandeur, transforming a space into an ethereal, enclosed environment. In event design, draping is often used to enhance the visual narrative by guiding the eye upwards and adding layers of texture. The choice of white or neutral draping here contrasts with the bolder reds and pinks, allowing the floral details and décor to stand out.

Overall, The Kimpton Collection offers a cohesive vision of an elevated, glamorous wedding theme that merges classic romance with modern touches through a balance of bold colors, metallic finishes, and flowing fabrics.

Introduction to Floral Wedding Arch Ideas

Along your wedding planning journey, wedding ceremony decor will start to cross your mind, likely leading you to search for a wedding arch idea. You are certainly not alone! Wedding arches are a timeless and symbolic feature in wedding ceremonies, often representing the entryway into a new chapter of life for the couple. Traditionally, arches symbolize the future home that the couple will build together, as well as the protection and security of their union. 

Wedding arches can significantly enhance the visual appeal of a wedding, creating a stunning focal point for the ceremony. They provide a beautiful ceremony backdrop for the couple, making the moment of exchanging vows even more memorable and picturesque. Floral wedding arches, in particular, add a touch of natural beauty and elegance, incorporating colors and textures that complement the wedding theme. Whether adorned with lush greenery, delicate blooms, or a combination of both, a well-designed floral arch can transform the ceremony space, making it feel more intimate, romantic, and enchanting. We’ll explore wedding arch ideas in detail to help you cross florals off your wedding planning checklist.

Choosing the Right Flowers for Your Wedding Arch

Floral arches can be customized to reflect the personality and unique wedding style of the couple. There are so many choices to create many different visuals. From rustic and bohemian to classic and sophisticated, the choice of wedding flowers, foliage, and design elements allows for endless creativity and personalization. By carefully selecting the right flower choices for your wedding day, you can achieve a beautiful focal point for your ceremony that matches your wedding colors, aesthetic, and vision.

Seasonal Flowers for Your Wedding Arch

If you are using fresh flowers for your wedding arch, you may want to consider the seasonality of flowers to keep your costs down. By matching your floral decisions to your wedding color schemes, you can create a cohesive look to remember. Opting for premium silk flowers can eliminate the cost consideration, but it may still be a good idea to consider the seasonality to coordinate with your wedding theme. Choosing the right flowers for your wedding arch can greatly enhance the seasonal theme of your wedding. Here are some of the best flowers for each season to help you create a stunning floral arch that reflects the beauty of the time of year.

Spring: Tulips, Daffodils, Cherry Blossoms are top choices.  Delphinium and Hydrangeas are also great choices, since these spring blooms are lush and full they easily fill a ceremony arch design. Our Millie Collection Garland is a top seller for ceremony arches during spring.

Summer: Sunflowers, Roses, Lilies are typically your most popular flower choices. During the summer season, we recommend going heavy on greenery within your ceremony arch, especially if your wedding ceremony is outdoors. Greenery can tolerate the heat much more than delicate flowers. Take a look at our full line of greenery and silk wedding flowers garland as the base for your diy ceremony arch. 

Fall: Dahlias, Marigolds, Chrysanthemums are always top of mind and great fall choices because of their vibrant colors and warm, rich hues. Our Nina Collection Garland and Kinsley Collection Garland include an abundance of popular fall florals to accentuate your installation. 

Winter: Poinsettias, Amaryllis, Holly are synonymous with the holiday season. But you may also consider less holiday specific florals and greenery for your ceremony arch. Greenery is also a good choice for this time of year. 

By choosing flowers that are in season, you can ensure that your wedding arch is not only beautiful but also reflects the natural beauty and spirit of the time of year.

Floral Wedding Arch Styles

There are countless possibilities when it comes to choosing the style of your wedding ceremony arch. And choosing the right style for your floral wedding arch can help set the tone for your entire ceremony. Here are some of the most popular styles to consider, each offering its unique aesthetic.

Classic Floral Wedding Arches

Common shapes with clean lines like rectangles, circular, and arched frames adorned with lush greenery and flowers are great examples of classic wedding arches. For this type of wedding flower installation, we recommend starting with your structure first. Amazon is typically a good source for a perfect wedding arch structure if you don’t already have one. A few of our favorites are linked here. 

First, Choose a frame as your starting point. Next, choose a premium silk garland option from Something Borrowed Blooms or compose your own fresh flower garland if you're an expert floral designer. Our rent and return floral options arrive at your doorstep pre-arranged and assembled making your arch setup as easy and affordable as it gets! Lastly, zip-tie your garland around the frame structure to complete diy arch design. You can add as many garlands as you would like for a full and lush design, or you can use remaining flowers to inspire wedding centerpiece ideas.

Here is a great example of how easy it is to accomplish a classic wedding flower ceremony arch in a matter of minutes: 

As you’ll see from the video there are so many options and possibilities with minimal effort involved. Other supplies needed to complete this look are zip ties, scissors, and a step stool, also linked here. 

Rustic Floral Wedding Arches

For a Rustic Floral Arch design, we suggest using natural elements. This includes the frame, like a wooden wedding arch, or a pre-existing structure at your ceremony site, like an overhead beam for example. To achieve a rustic design, less florals would be needed. Consider using a simple floral swag or 1-2 floral garlands to complete your arch. Let the natural elements of your rustic wedding venue take center stage. Our favorite floral collections for a rustic theme include The Taylor Collection, The Olivia Collection, and The Jane Collection.

Boho Floral Wedding Arches

Boho themed wedding ceremonies are typically more natural, but with an eclectic and vibrant twist. To achieve a boho wedding flower arch, you may also consider using a natural structure as your base or a geometric frame to create your arch. Similar to the rustic styling, let your structure take the focal point of your wedding arch with flowers playing a secondary role. 

Our best wedding flower collection for a boho-themed wedding is our Nina Collection, which features a beautiful dessert canyon color palette and dried, natural elements like pampas. Choose from our pre-arranged garlands, swags, and grand centerpieces to complete your very own boho floral arch.

Modern Floral Wedding Arches

A modern floral arch is one of our favorites. There are so many new age techniques and designs that fit the modern couple perfectly. Modifications to the classic floral arch include the Broken Floral Arch and the Grounded Floral Arch. Both of these modern designs are beautiful choices for any wedding theme.

The Grounded Floral Arch does not require a structure or frame, instead the floral design is created directly on the ground and can be done anywhere. This floral arch design works for outdoor or indoor weddings. To create a ground floral arch, we use a mix of grand centerpieces, centerpieces, garlands, and a few floral posies. 

Take a look at this quick video to learn how to create a modern floral arch in a matter of minutes:

The Broken Floral Arch is an asymmetrical design using two column structures or frames, instead of a classic full structure. For the base, we use stands, using a tall stand on one side and a short stand on the other side. Place one stand on each side of the ceremony space, flanking the area where you will exchange vows. Next add your floral components to the stands to create a crescent shape on both sides. For florals, again we recommend our floral garlands as the primary florals, you may also use some posies, loose stems and a few centerpieces at the base, depending on your vision.

Take a look at this video for a step-by-step guide on creating the broken floral arch. This DIY floral wedding arch is easy to create and has a big presence:

Any of our floral collections work well for a modern arch design, but some of our favorite floral collections for a modern theme include The Wren Collection, The Gemma Collection, and The Jane Collection.

Tips for Maintaining Freshness of Wedding Arch Flowers

If you are using fresh flowers, ensuring that your wedding arch remains fresh and lively throughout the ceremony is crucial. Here are some tips to help maintain the freshness of your floral arrangements:

Choose Hardy Flowers: Opt for flowers known for their durability and ability to withstand different environmental conditions. Flowers like roses, lilies, chrysanthemums, and orchids are good choices.

Consider Seasonal Flowers: Using flowers that are in season ensures they are at their peak freshness and are more likely to last longer.

Proper Hydration: Insert the stems of the flowers into water tubes or floral picks to keep them hydrated. These small tubes can be hidden within the arrangement and will provide a continuous water supply to the flowers.

Spray with Water: Lightly mist the flowers with water periodically to keep them fresh, especially if the weather is hot or dry.

Avoid Direct Sunlight: Place the arch in a shaded area to prevent the flowers from wilting under direct sunlight. If the ceremony is outdoors, consider setting up a canopy or using umbrellas for shade.

Cool Storage: If possible, store the floral arrangements in a cool place until they are ready to be set up. This helps preserve their freshness.

Set Up Last Minute: Arrange and set up the floral arch as close to the ceremony time as possible to minimize the time the flowers are exposed to the elements. Work closely with your florist to plan the types of flowers and arrangements that will hold up best in the conditions of your wedding day.

By following these tips, you can help ensure that your wedding arch flowers remain beautiful and fresh, providing a stunning backdrop for your special day. Maintaining fresh flowers can be overwhelming, especially when planning for extreme weather, hot or cold! Consider silk wedding flowers instead for a stress-free and beautiful alternative to fresh wedding flower arches. Our premium silk rent and return flowers arrive at your doorstep pre-arranged 3-days prior to your event date, giving you or your wedding coordinator ample time to set up your diy wedding flower arch days in advance without having to worry about maintaining freshness!
