Expect to see a revival of bright, deep, jewel-toned blooms and an abundance of greenery as a big part of both the ceremony and wedding reception. While greenery has been popular in garlands and archways, now brides are including Pampas Grass into their wedding arches, hanging floral designs, centerpieces, pew and aisle ends and dramatic ceiling and wall installments as homage to Meghan Markle’s stunning 2018 wedding arch.
Brides will be moving towards more of an industrial look that includes a lot of raw spaces and materials along with lush greenery and classic florals for an alteration from the rustic sheik barn look that became one of the biggest trends of 2018 in their wedding reception. 2019 will introduce flowers back into the centerpiece fold however they will likely be low in height, tailored, greenery pieces that bring an outdoor feel to any indoor venue space.
This year’s centerpieces will give way to “showpieces” or larger floral or greenery arrangements such as flower or greenery walls or hanging installations. Guests love a good photo opportunity and this is a great way to provide instagram ready backgrounds that aren’t confined to the dance floor and instead allow your guests to move around the room and create their own memories on your special day. Having florals as a part of your wedding reception decor leaves many opportunities for others to take pictures and savor those memories.
