Minimalistic Wedding Flowers

by tomboesen on June 20, 2010

Everyone hears me talking about minimalism in their floral arrangements and everyone asks me “what the heck” am I talking about.  Floral trends, especially for weddings, follow the “less is more” mantra.

If you look at your mother’s or grandmother’s wedding photos you’re going to see lots of babies breath and greenery.  If you look at pictures of your friend’s weddings….not so much.  When it comes to wedding flowers most brides are going for minimalistic arrangements which means little or no greenery and babies breath.  Instead they utilize natural items like stones and only use a six to a dozen flowers and frankly, it looks great.

It’s important to keep this in mind because it can sometimes save you money or allow you to have even more pieces at your wedding.  I know I say this time and time again but tradition isn’t so popular anymore.  Brides are liking bolder colors, sleeker styles and more creative and original themes.  If you like traditional….GREAT!  If you don’t….GREAT!  Because all that matters is that you like what you have.
