2023 weddings will be colourful!
What a delight to see all these colours in your wedding inspiration boards. Fuchsia, orange, grapefruit, royal blue, lime and yellow, you may not know where to start? Follow the guide.
The bright colour block wedding trend
Fuchsia, orange, grapefruit and citrus yellow are coming together in 2023! On the tables, on the ceremony arch, in the bride’s bouquet, the guests’ outfits… This 2023 wedding trend is very easy to embrace. In a zesty theme with real citrus, this colour block will be the star of summer weddings. This type of decoration is easily visualised outdoors, but also in an old building which will complete the decoration with its charm. Another theme can be perfectly achieved with the colour block: the pop wedding. Get out your disco balls, the bride, and groom are ready to party!
Lavender – the new colour of love
As you already know, lavender is a trend colour in 2023. And of course, it’s not immune from being combined. Lavender will mix with shades of blue and white to form the winning trifecta. Getting married in Provence, in the middle of a lavender field, is one possibility. Your future brides and grooms can also incorporate lavender, both the flower and the colour, into the stationery, the floral decoration, the cocktail party, the reception venue…
Bridgerton influence: the Regencycore trend
This style originated with the aristocracy during the English Regency in the 19th century. It has been brought back into fashion, mainly by what are known as Regency romances. These are fictionalized stories set in this period, such as the novels of Julia Quinn (Bridgerton saga), Martha Waters or Jennifer Haymore. Delicacy, vintage spirit and romance are a great mix for a trendy wedding. For a Regencycore wedding, think pastel, patterned tableware, lace, dried or stabilized flowers and candleholders.
Boho weddings stay in 2023
Natural pampas will continue to be the favourite of boho weddings in 2023. For your future brides and grooms who want to go without, in this article we have selected the two biggest boho 2023 wedding trends.
A sage green and beige colour palette
This olive field inspired palette is ideal if your bride and groom want a soft and trendy decoration. Here are a few ideas to adopt it:
- A sage green groom’s suit,

Terracotta, copper, rust orange and brown shades will be the favoured guests at many weddings this year. Pinterest is giving us these 2023 wedding trends based on the rising searches of Millennials and Generation X.

The big, luxurious backdrops of Vogue and other magazine photoshoots are now in demand by brides-to-be! Big drapes, dimmed lights and spectacular flower installations, this trend is bound to inspire us. Think voluptuous flowers for these settings such as gypsophila, barbas, colourful pampas, hydrangeas, mountain ferns, etc.

Les bouquets uniflores
This is a kind of bouquet that consists of using one type of flower, sometimes with different shades of colour, for example pink, red and white gypsophila. And contrary to what you might think, these bouquets are not just for bridesmaids! The bride can choose her bouquet according to the style of her wedding and the message she wishes to convey. She will be able to carry with her throughout her day a host of flowers (eternal or not) that are particularly close to her heart.
Pearls for chic and modern brides
Forget the old-fashioned view of the pearl necklace. The trendy brides have taken hold of this trend! On their veil, wedding dress, on their accessories, shoes, in the decoration, on the wedding cake… They roll everywhere, but be careful that it does not become too much. For the flowers, you should avoid all the voluptuous flowers and rather advise calla lily, dahlia grace or white gardenia.
Flowered columns as ceremonial arch
Non-religious ceremonies are increasingly favoured by future brides and grooms. They now know that they have other options than a religious ceremony or to settle for a civil ceremony. Brides-to-be are also letting loose with their ceremony decorations by opting for arches that look like them. The trend for 2023? Tall flower columns made of fresh, dried or preserved flowers.
Mix and match 2023 wedding trends
Following this emerging trend, future brides and grooms and private event professionals are imagining eclectic decorations where dried flowers, neon lights, straw bales, industrial bulbs… The common point of all these decorations? Flowers. And yes, it is the flower decoration that makes the link between the different worlds that have been married.
