The Ever-Changing World of Wedding Trends

Gerrards Florist's recent Facebook post of a customer's wedding photos from the 1980s (we're guessing), made us smile and reminisce!

As we enter the height of wedding season, it’s had us thinking about the trends that have come and gone over the years. Weddings are constantly evolving, with every generation bringing its own style and personality to the big day. The trends may change, but the desire to create a beautiful and memorable celebration never does.

Over the years, we’ve seen boho and birdcages, candy colours and cornucopias, metallics and mirrorware to mention just a few themes. Here are some images to remind you, found in the I.S. archives!

One trend that continues to grow is the focus on creating atmosphere. Romantic lighting, elegant centrepieces and eye-catching venue styling all play a huge part in transforming a space and making guests feel truly immersed in the celebration. Whether couples are planning a grand reception or an intimate gathering, decorative details can completely elevate the occasion.

Of course, while trends come and go, some wedding favourites never lose their appeal. Timeless pieces such as elegant candelabras like these and classic pedestal stands like these continue to remain at the heart of wedding styling year after year. Their versatility and sophistication make them perfect for both traditional and contemporary weddings, proving that some things simply never go out of fashion.
