Dream Scenes

We’re looking to décor styles that are set to be seen in weddings in 2025 and beyond.

“2025 wedding styles are all about embracing individuality in your wedding look, with an emphasis on breaking tradition and opting for something a little different,” says Hazels Parsons of Out of the Ordinary Weddings (outoftheordinaryweddings.com). We’ve asked some of the region’s stylists, planners and wedding gurus for their input on the top style trends, so you can use their guidance to inspire and shape the look and feel of your big day…

Vintage

Vintage patterns are going to make a comeback – think blues and whites, reds and whites, the vintage French pattern and lace tablecloths may make an appearance. It’s vintage but with a modern, elegant twist.

Candles
Candles never really went away but think ‘too many’ candles – they’re going to be a big thing in weddings in the next year or two. Rooms lit only by candlelight, creating cosy, intimate atmospheres, will be a beautiful way to showcase the trend.

Dusky blues

Blues are always a popular colour and this year dusky blues are going to be a big one. I love it when people use an unusual second colour within their palette too, like combining dusky blues with coral orange! Dreamy!

Mustard yellows


Mustard yellow is a great way of using an autumnal colour palette but keeping the sun shining all at the same time! This looks incredible in a room lit only by candlelight too… It really gives it such a warm feeling.

Soft pastels


Dusty blue and pinks with soft understated fabrics, textured napkins or table runners will make for a relaxed romantic vibe complemented by fine dining touches. Think crystal glassware, delicate candlelight, vintage tableware, understated stationery with script fonts and gentle flushes of colour. Draped ceilings with plentiful layers of white fabric will bring a very romantic, timeless and classic feel.

Vibrant hues



We’ll see a bright burst of sunny colours, like orange and hot pink, mixed into the stationery, bridesmaids’ dresses, ceremony flowers and wedding tablescapes. This look works beautifully for flower installations, bud-heavy table flowers and bold ceremony backdrops.

Sage and rose 
As a colour scheme, this is a twist on a more traditional wedding style. It has a quintessential wedding feel to it; think English country garden. This look works well on full-length luxe table linen or rustic wooden tables paired with a sage table runner, brass candlesticks, rattan charger plates, white crockery and oversized vintage rose napkins. It’s such a versatile style you can choose minimalistic décor with accents of colour or opt for a fuller look with layered fabrics, tall candlesticks and sculpted flower arrangements.

Layers of white and green

From layers of colour to layers of texture throughout the wedding look, incorporate shades of green into your wedding attire, invitations and stationery and continue it through to your flowers and table décor. This look can have a contemporary feel to it: sophisticated, glamorous and elegant.

Big, bold florals

Start with a ceremony jam-packed with all things floral! Bye bye standalone floral arrangements and traditional arches, and hello grand flower installations that line the aisle taking centre stage. When following trends, sometimes it’s easy to get lost in what’s in keeping to you, but that’s what we love most here – you can change it up to suit your style, colour scheme and, of course, your favourite florals. Flower power at its best!

Jewel tones

In 2025 we’ll be seeing some bold, fun and vibrant shades popping up. Be bold and beautiful with selecting jewel tones for your day. Whilst there will be emerald greens, sapphire blues, ruby reds and amethyst purple in 2024, these rich shades also carry over into 2025. Spread these across to your table linen, flower arrangements, glassware and much more. Have fun and don’t be afraid to be playful with it as this is a great way to add energy and personality to your day.

Shimmer

If you’re looking to incorporate a touch of sophistication and luxury to your big day, consider adding in some gold, rose gold and copper for those metallic accents. This can be across your tablescapes, your stationery or even bring in some shimmer through your bridesmaids’ dresses. Introduce a sense of opulence with the use of these metallics and create a chic and contemporary feel to your wedding day.

All natural

We will also be seeing a nature-inspired trend in 2025 where the popular use of lots of foliage and greenery returns, while adding in some warm terracotta, earthy greens and soft blues across the décor and florals. The lush greenery and earthy-toned florals are perfect for those outdoor ceremonies and rustic-inspired weddings.

Mismatched patterns

As with trends in interiors, clashing and mismatched patterns and a maximalist feel has been making its way into wedding trends too. The best way to go about this is to choose a colour scheme. In the case of our Amalfi Summer look (images featured), it's varying shades of blues, yellows and whites; clash patterns within that colour scheme so it doesn't look too much. For the Almafi shoot I clashed a blue and white stripe, blue chintz floral and a Mediterranean tile pattern also in blues.

Fabric displays

Fabric is back in a big way. But rather than fussy-looking swags of material or a ruched marquee ceiling, think more about elegant drapes, either hung from the ceiling or a backdrop and in a variety of colours rather than just ivory or white! Lots of venues, especially barns and tents, will have opportunities to create hanging displays that can help bridge the gap between your table décor and the ceiling height, making spaces feel more intimate and cosy.

Bright colour pops

Colour is back and, going forward for 2025, we're going to see even more bright pops of colour - the brighter the better! Don't think anything of combining hot pinks, mustards and oranges with pale pinks and golds like we did for the Summer Punch styled shoot (images featured). The trick is to not feel afraid of lots of colour; it works in so many spaces. Just beause you're getting married in a manor house doesn't mean that your wedding has to be neutral and blend into the walls. The trick to using lots of colour is the same principle as always: pick a couple of shades as a base colour palette that you'll use more often and then add two or three accent colours which will just pop throughout the scheme.

Statement table plans

Rather than just a simple printed board, think outside the box when it comes to your seating plan for 2025! Use old shutters, like we did at Hayley & Mike's wedding (images featured) to hang individual tables on, or create bespoke displays on plinths, hang fabric table plans from frames or create a large escort card display rather than a single table plan. We're doing several plans this year with escort cards tied to champagne glasses and displayed on shelving and bespoke units.
