Flower power
By Lydia Kacala
While it may feel overwhelming making so many important decisions one after another, when it all comes together, the details create your perfect wedding day. Floral arrangements are a beautiful and important element, as they affect the overall feeling of your big day and create a colorful backdrop for your photos.
Finding the perfect arrangements will create a vibe that matches you and your partner, giving your guests a glimpse of you as the wedding couple. This fall, florists from Willows and Sage Flowers & Events in Beachwood and HeatherLily in Cleveland share what colors have been popular this year and which ones should be popping up this season. They also offer their takes on current design trends.
In lieu of a neutral palette, we are seeing everything from bright and bold to moody and deep hues – a nice transition from the summer florals.

Textures will also be big, as well as more of an organic, imperfect look that is more artistic and natural.

We’re seeing a move to large floral installations at weddings.

I’m embracing the warm ambient tones that define the (fall) season. You should hope to see a lot of browns, tans, beiges, honey and Champagne hues included in weddings.
