Share
Fresh, fun, and overflowing with personality — here's everything blooming for 2026 weddings!
If you’re planning a 2026 wedding, get ready… because the floral trends arriving next year are some of the most beautiful we’ve ever seen. From bold colours to dreamy meadows, textured bouquets, and creative styling, couples are choosing flowers that tell their story in the most magical way.
Let’s explore the stunning floral trends you’ll be seeing everywhere in 2026 — and how you can keep your bouquet alive long after the big day is over.
Meadow-Inspired Magic
Soft, whimsical and effortlessly romantic — the meadow-style bouquet is one of the biggest floral trends for 2026. Brides are moving away from overly structured bouquets and embracing florals that feel natural and airy.
Expect bouquets filled with:
Wispy stems
Feather-light grasses
Delicate blooms
Asymmetrical shapes
Gentle movement
For couples who love the “just picked from the field” look, Holyrood Flowers is a beautiful choice, offering stunning home-grown British flowers perfect for this trend.
Texture Is Taking Over
2026 florals are all about texture — the more the better! Brides are mixing petal shapes, foliage textures and unexpected elements to create depth and dimension.
You’ll see more of:
Velvet-soft ranunculus
Fluffy astilbe
Crinkled sweet peas
Thistles, seed pods & grasses
Ferns adding softness and movement
If you love bouquets with personality and structure, Love Flowers Floral Design in the Midlands are masters of textured, contemporary floral design.
Bold Colour Is Back
Pastels will always hold their place, but 2026 is bringing colour back with a bang. Think bright, joyful, personality-packed palettes.
You’ll see:
Citrus pops (orange, lemon, peach)
Vibrant fuchsias and purples
Jewel tones
Soft lavender paired with creamy neutrals
Dusty blue for a modern “something blue”
For brides looking to make a statement, Vivid Floral Designs create breathtaking colourful arrangements that perfectly capture this bold 2026 trend.
Romantic Neutrals Are Still In
Neutrals continue to be a firm favourite — but with a 2026 twist. Brides are choosing warm tones like latte, taupe, caramel, champagne, and blush, often paired with dried elements for texture.
For lovers of dried florals, Bush Boho in Shropshire are experts in boho-dried arrangements that bring this trend to life with style and authenticity.
Mixing Fresh and Dried
One of the most exciting 2026 trends is the fusion of dried and fresh flowers. This creates contrast, longevity and style all in one bouquet.
Think combinations of:
Pampas grass
Dried palms
Preserved ruscus
Bunny tails
paired with
Fresh roses
Ranunculus
Garden-style blooms
This blend adds depth and keeps your bouquet looking stunning from morning to night.
