Top Wedding Flower Trends for 2025
From a Long Beach Wedding and event Florist Who Lives for Whimsical & Wild Moments
As a Southern California wedding florist who's all about floral storytelling, I'm already seeing what's blooming big so far for 2025. And let me tell you, it’s bold, intentional, and beautifully personal. Whether you're planning your big day in Long Beach, Los Angeles, Orange County, or somewhere around those areas, these wedding flower trends will help you create a floral experience that actually feels like you.

1. Bold & Vibrant Color Palettes
Gone are the days of safe whites and neutrals. In 2025, couples are leaning into deep berry tones, cheerful yellows, rich greens, and unexpected combos that pop in photos. As a wedding florist in Long Beach, I’m loving how these color-forward palettes turn even the most classic venues into modern love stories.

2. Sustainable Wedding Flowers Are Here to Stay
Eco-conscious couples are asking all the right questions: What’s in season? What’s local? What’s compostable?
I’m seeing more demand for sustainable wedding florals like locally grown blooms, foam-free installs, and even potted plants that guests can take home (hello, favor with a purpose!). Flowers by Melis proudly offers eco-friendly wedding flower options throughout Southern California.

3. Wildflower Wedding Bouquets for a Whimsical Look
Soft, garden-inspired bouquets that feel like they were just gathered from a dreamy hillside meadow are stealing the show: think chamomile, cosmos, poppies, and butterfly ranunculus. It’s giving romantic, carefree, and just the right amount of cottagecore. (This look is especially stunning for beach weddings, meadows, or open-air garden venues.)

4. Monochromatic Florals That Make a Statement
There’s something so chic about sticking to one hue and going all in. Monochromatic florals, like all shades of orange or pink with soft green accents, feel elevated but still personal. If you’re planning a modern romantic wedding in L.A. or Orange County, this trend brings major main character energy.

5. Asymmetrical Florals & Organic Shapes
2025 brides want movement, texture, and a little bit of unexpected flair. Asymmetrical florals with trailing elements and organic lines are replacing the tight, round shapes of the past. They're perfect for adding a fresh twist to timeless wedding styles, and they photograph like a dream.

7. Edible Elements & Non-Traditional Textures
Florals with figs, grapes, artichokes, and even radishes? Yep. I’m here for it. These details add personality and dimension, especially for modern romantic weddings with a European vibe. If you're hosting your wedding in Los Angeles or Long Beach, this is such a fun way to bring the foodie culture into your florals.

Bonus Trend: Bridgerton-Inspired Blooms
Thanks to the Regencycore revival (hi, Bridgerton fans!), I’m seeing a rise in delicate arrangements with soft pastels, climbing vines, and statement vessels like antique bust vases. If you’re dreaming of a wedding that feels elegant, romantic, and a little dramatic, this one's for you.

FAQ: Wedding Florist Questions You Were Totally Going to Google Later

A: Ideally, 6–12 months before your wedding. For full-service florals, the sooner the better — especially during peak SoCal wedding season (spring/fall).

A: Yes! Mock-up centerpiece sessions start at $250 and are a great way to preview your design direction, especially if you’re visual and want that extra peace of mind.
Q: What areas do you serve?
A: I’m based in Long Beach but serve all of Southern California: from Los Angeles to Orange County to wine country and beyond.
Q: Do you offer a la carte options?
A: Absolutely! I have a la carte services for couples who want gorgeous flowers without the full-service experience, perfect for elopements or budget-conscious weddings.
Q: What’s your floral style?
A: My style is whimsical, unique, and full of personality, a mix of creative flair and bold romance. I love designing florals that feel magical, meaningful, and totally custom to each couple.
Q: Do you work with specific venues or planners?
A: Yes! I love collaborating with planners and venues across SoCal. If you’re already working with someone, I’m happy to integrate seamlessly into your vendor team.
