Soft hues are having their moment this year! Whether you’re planning a dreamy, chic soirée or adding delicate touches to a summer wedding, pastels bring the perfect balance of romance and refinement — and this trending palette is giving fresh, elevated, and delightfully unexpected. From buttery yellows and seaside blues to classic ballet pink, Flora D’ Amore is diving into the trending tones and the flowers that wear them best.
Butter Yellow
The color of the season, butter yellow, is not to be missed, which is why we’ve captured this creamy, dreamy hue as the top spot on our list. This pastel is giving soft sunlight streaming through the window, lemon chiffon cake on the dessert table, a cozy cardigan on a cool morning, and such peaceful cottagecore energy that we can hear the birds chirping. From daffodils and tulips to ranunculus and stock flowers, these butter yellow blooms are sweet, soft, and sunny.
Matcha Green
Matcha lattes aren’t going anywhere anytime soon, and that iconic subtle, soothing shade of green is also here to make a statement. While greenery is always a must in floral design, if you’re looking for those perfect pastel greens, lean towards fresh eucalyptus and whimsical ferns to match the vibe. Blooms like green orchids and hydrangea paired with ivory roses create a pastel moment grounded in nature and elevated in grace.
Lovely Lavender
The calm, comforting, and serene presence of lavender is unmatched, which is why it’s such an ideal ingredient in spa essentials. While lavender itself is a nice accent for bouquets and bud vases, larger, showier stems that bloom in this lovely shade also bring a quiet elegance to weddings and events. Think statement flowers like roses, football mums, and spider mums, or accent flowers like alstroemeria, pom-daisies, and carnations for that lilac-meets-luxe look.
Seaside Blue
If that northern coastal aesthetic calls your name in the warm breeze, seaside blue might be the color for you. Of course, blue hydrangeas are a must-have for beachy, nautical babes who want their wedding to feel like salty air and a golden beach sunset. Other blue blooms that bring the Nantucket vibes include tall blue delphinium, spiky blue thistle, and accents like dusty miller for some soft, ocean-kissed textures.
Ballet Pink
Last but most certainly not least is the beautiful ballet pink. She’s feminine, she’s graceful, she’s soft, and she literally goes with everything! The list of pink flowers can go on for miles and miles, so we’ll share just a few of our favorites. Don’t miss out on gorgeous garden roses, spray roses, peonies, ranunculus, snapdragons, and Gerbera daisies. For a full, pretty-in-pink romantic design, incorporate other tones like pastel peaches and creams.
These trending pastels prove that soft doesn’t mean boring — it means intentional, modern, and so aesthetically pleasing. Whether you’re going for full-on fairytale or just sprinkling in some serene color, pastel petals are timeless, chic, fresh, and beautiful.
