When it comes to weddings, flowers are more than just decoration—they help tell your love story. As a photographer, I pay close attention to these floral details because they make each couple’s day unique. Capturing these blooms, from the delicate petals to the larger-than-life installations, ensures that even as trends change, your memories stay timeless.
For 2025, I'm predicting some exciting wedding flower trends, and I can’t wait to see how these new styles will add depth, dimension, and character to my couples’ big days. Let’s dive into what’s trending next year!
1. Grounded Floral Designs 🌿
Say goodbye to floating flower arrangements! In 2025, we’ll see flowers more grounded, creating meandering paths, flower beds, and even floral carpets that will add a whole new layer of depth to your day. These installations provide a stunning, immersive experience and are perfect for capturing those enchanting wide shots that really set the scene.
2. Floral Crowns 👑
Floral crowns are here to stay, and I couldn’t be happier! In 2025, these gorgeous headpieces are set to become even more extravagant, featuring not just flowers, but feathers and foliage too. There’s even talk of blending crowns with veils and headbands, offering a modern twist on this boho-chic staple. I’m excited to capture these show-stopping details up close and in action!
3. Countryside Vibes 🌻
2025 weddings are all about embracing nature, with wildflower-inspired arrangements that evoke a dreamy countryside feel. Think sunflowers, daisies, and lavender paired with rustic elements like twine and wood. This trend is perfect for couples looking for that natural, unpolished charm—and as a photographer, these blooms create the perfect backdrop for those relaxed, candid moments.
4. Structural Set Designs 🏛️
Floral displays will go beyond the bouquet in 2025, with grand, eye-catching structures designed to steal the show. These striking set pieces will serve as stunning focal points for ceremonies, making for gorgeous, statement-making photo ops. Imagine the drama and elegance of a wedding arch covered in cascading flowers—pure magic!
5. Oversized Vases 🌺
For couples who want to make a serious statement, oversized vases filled with lush arrangements are the way to go. Picture larger-than-life vases overflowing with cascading flowers and greenery. These arrangements will add a luxurious touch to any venue and are perfect for wide-angle shots that capture the grandeur of the day.
6. Dainty Bouquets 🌸
With all the bold, dramatic trends taking the stage, dainty bouquets are making a sweet comeback. These delicate arrangements offer an understated elegance that complements more elaborate décor. As a photographer, these smaller, intricate bouquets provide a lovely balance, adding femininity and softness to wedding portraits.
7. Bright, Eye-Catching Colors 🌈
Bold colours are set to shine in 2025, with sunflower yellows, peony pinks, and vibrant combinations that break all the traditional wedding flower rules. Anything goes, as long as it’s bright and beautiful! These pops of colour create an energetic, lively atmosphere, and they really pop in photos, making your memories feel as vibrant as the day itself.
8. Dried Flowers 🌾
Dried flowers continue their reign, adding a boho twist to wedding florals. Expect to see strawflowers, dried lavender, wheat, and even preserved roses in muted, earthy tones. These bouquets bring a rustic, natural feel to weddings, and their long-lasting nature means they’ll look just as lovely in your photos years from now.
9. Monochromatic Magic ⚪
For a sleek, modern aesthetic, monochromatic flower arrangements will be big in 2025. Whether in shades of white, cream, or blush, this polished look offers elegance and cohesion throughout the day. These arrangements create a timeless, sophisticated backdrop for wedding photography, making your photos feel effortlessly chic.
10. Seasonal and Local 🌷
One of my favourite trends for 2025 is the focus on seasonal and locally sourced flowers. With couples becoming more eco-conscious, this trend is all about sustainability and supporting local flower farms. Choosing blooms that are in season not only helps the environment but also gives your wedding a unique, personal touch. Local flowers mean that no two weddings will look exactly alike, and I love capturing the essence of a region in these natural, beautiful arrangements. Here are a few amazing flower farms in the area you should check out: The Flowers Belt, near Helmsley, Thistledown Flowers, near Scarborough, Wardy'd Acre, near Driffield and Wild Bee Flower Farm at York.
