As another year rolls in, it’s a time for a load more engagements and weddings. These days weddings are bigger than ever, and the trends and styles are ever evolving.

FLOWERS
Country style softer bouquets are definitely still on trend for 2020, using UK native country flowers with different shapes and textures with soft eucalyptus greenery. In the bridal party, the bridesmaid bouquets do not have to match the bridal bouquet and gypsophila posies are on trend.

THE CEREMONY
Pew ends are making a revival with the bubbly gypsophila as a very popular choice. This is simple, yet effective. For civil ceremonies, a chair sash tied on the Chiavari chairs but with the bow on the aisle side rather than mid back.

THE TABLE
There seem to be two contrasting styles for table centres – tall glass vases with a larger voluminous flower ball are popular, alongside a revival for low softer table arrangements. Jam jars seem to be fading away for 2020, probably due to their huge popularity in 2018 and into 2019.

THE CAKE
Hoops are gaining popularity, decorated with artificial or real flowers and foliage, used as backdrops for wedding cakes, ceremonies or even behind the top table. Care should be taken as a table centre so your guests view across the table is not impaired.
