If you’re planning your wedding for 2025, you’ve come to the right place! We’re breaking down what’s trending, what’s timeless, and what’s so last year (aka, last month). Weddings are all about love, sure, but they’re also about curating a vibe that makes jaws drop, cameras snap, and moments etched in your memory forever. The good news is that some of 2024’s trendiest ideas are here to stay (yay!), while others are getting a much-needed glow-up for the new year. At Flora D’ Amore, we’re spilling all the tea on how to keep your big day looking fresh, fabulous, and totally unforgettable.
Keep Opulent Tablescapes, But Swap Out Maximalism
We all love a “wow” moment when it comes to reception decor, and floating floral clouds were the moment in 2024. Thankfully, they’re sticking around for 2025. Picture airy, refined floral designs that connect the tabletop to the ceiling above, but in a way that feels polished, not forced. What’s not here to stay, however, is overwhelming maximalism. This year’s tablescapes are going for understated luxury: think fewer elements but arranged with a purpose that seriously packs a punch. Maximalism was fun while it lasted, but this year, it’s about keeping it grand and approachable.
Keep Old Money Styling, But Swap Out Bridgerton
Old Money styling (aka quiet luxury) is holding steady as a top trend in 2025. It’s a style that’s timeless and never goes out of fashion. Imagine upscale linens, monogrammed details, and floral arrangements with an emphasis on premium white blooms such as garden roses, calla lilies, and orchids. On the flip side, Bridgerton-inspired wedding aesthetics—pastel gloves, rococo decor, and over-the-top romance—are taking their final bow. Instead, couples are embracing coastal elegance, with an elevated Martha’s Vineyard or Hamptons feel. Think breezy, sophisticated, and effortlessly chic.
Keep Luxe Minimalism, But Swap Out Budget Weddings
Minimalism in weddings has officially been rebranded as luxe minimalism, and we’re here for it. The secret is choosing high-end details that feel sleek but significant. This isn’t about going bare bones—it’s about quality over quantity. Premium floral arrangements (protea, ranunculus, anthuriums), modern monochromatic palettes, and sculptural centerpieces are all very in. The swap? Say goodbye to minimalism that’s purely about saving money. Luxe minimalism proves that focusing on fewer elements can still be just as effective and gorgeous when done with intention.
Keep Culture Front and Center, But Swap Out Traditional Favors
Weddings that honor cultural traditions—like Hacienda-inspired celebrations or meaningful religious ceremonies—are breathtaking ways to showcase your heritage. From incorporating regional flavors in your menu to curating a playlist filled with songs that tell your story, these elements are all about creating a wedding experience that feels uniquely you. Luckily, weddings in 2025 are all about creating meaningful, personal experiences. This applies to everything, including your wedding favors. While traditional keepsakes like candles or coasters are still sweet, couples are opting for more experiential gifts. Think mini plants your guests can take home and foster, local gourmet snacks, or donations to causes close to your heart. These choices feel personal and memorable, which is exactly the vibe you want for your big day.
Keep Nostalgic Noshes, But Swap Out Food Trucks
Nostalgia isn’t going anywhere this year—it’s just getting more curated. Whether it’s playful late-night snacks that bring guests to decades past (hello, mini sliders) or a dessert table filled with elevated versions of your childhood favorites, couples are leaning into foods that feel fun and meaningful. But food trucks are officially rolling out. (No more standing in line to place your order.) For 2025, couples are stepping it up with chef-led experiences, interactive food stations, or plated meals that balance comfort and elegance. Nostalgia never tasted so good!
At Flora D’ Amore, we’re all about helping you mix trendiness with timelessness to create a wedding that feels uniquely yours. Let’s ditch the outdated, keep the stylish, and make your 2025 wedding one for the books!
