This fall, new and unique trends are emerging to fit any bride’s budget or style.

Encore’s floral expert, Andrea Vote said, “I’m seeing a lot of brides utilizing fall leaves throughout their bouquets as well as roses in the monochromatic color palate vs. plain white.”

She said brides are using browns, burgundy and oranges as in classic roses or tulips.

Another new trend is the use of personal or sentimental items in a floral bouquet such as buttons, lockets or other treasured items.

Vote added, “Brides seem to like loosely bunched garden style bouquets and colors in the salmon or plum family.”

As for table décor, organic materials such as branches, pinecones, berries and even fresh herbs make for beautiful and unique centerpieces. These budget friendly options are readily accessible and easy to incorporate.

These materials are used to accent cut floral or even on their own as singular design elements.

Sales Director, Stefanie Lerner said, “We’ve seen a lot of rustic design elements including branches with hanging candles that bring elegance to a natural motif.”

Wood elements such as lotus pods and dried floral and branches are also popular.

Celery green is a happy new accent color that gives a pop of green to more traditional color motifs. A modern interpretation of red and orange together or red and hot pink together brighten table linens or bridesmaid gowns.

Multiple patterns, colors and types of fabrics including embroidered or sparkly overlays add dimension to a standard table dressing.

“We recently created a 4 foot tree made out of welded rebar and added candles and flowers from the ‘branches.’ This was a very lovely design element that the wedding party raved about the entire evening,” said Lerner.

As for music trends, strings have always been traditional ceremony music, but more brides are opting for a classic quartet who interprets contemporary songs, combining classical and modern.

Brides on a budget may opt for a singular guitarist who can bridge their repertoire from Spanish to classical, adding spice and sass.
