Spring Trends You'll See Everywhere This Year

The beauty of a new season is that it always comes with fun ideas for wedding planning, especially in the spring. From fresh blooms to delicious flavors, there are so many ways to incorporate a splash of the spring season into your 2024 wedding plans. Whether you’re looking to mix up your menu, decor, party favors, or your accessories, there are always ways to add a spring seasonal twist into your big day.

As you start planning the details for your upcoming celebration, here are the top eight trends for a spring 2024 wedding.

A Bright Pink Color Scheme

Bold colored flowers make a statement during the spring season. But this year, a big trend in florals is combining different shades of pink and styling them in a loosely-tied bouquet or centerpiece. Whether you’re getting married inside or outside, the bright shade of roses, peonies, tulips, and cherry blossoms can make your venue come alive.

Tea-Length Dresses

The spring season often brings a new breeze that’s a little warmer than what was felt during the cold winter months. In past years, brides often picked dresses that were either floor length or knee length — but this year, tea-length dresses are making the ultimate come back. These dresses fall below the knee and above the ankle, which pairs nicely with a bold colored statement heel.

Garden-Themed Cocktails

As you brainstorm a signature cocktail to offer your guests during the reception, add in a spring twist with some delicious seasonal flavors. Popular cocktails this season include a rhubarb-fennel gin cocktail, sparkling basil lemonade with a splash of tequila, and vodka on the rocks with a splash of elderberry.

Floral Chandeliers

Instead of big and overflowing floral centerpieces, a funky trend for the spring season is to go with floral chandeliers. If your venue has low ceilings, consider hanging gold or silver chandeliers above each table, the dance floor, or just your table, and fill the chandelier with large floral arrangements. Add in extra greenery, like eucalyptus or filler flowers, to make it look bold and romantic.

Honey-Filled Party Favors

If you’re eager to send your guests home with something sweet at the end of the night, couples are opting for honey-filled party favors this season. Honey made during the spring season is often light in color and taste, which makes it a perfect addition to meals and iced teas. Send your loved ones home with a mini jar of honey from a local vendor or a natural honey bar of soap.

Potted Plant Centerpieces

If you’re looking for something simple and elegant to add to your reception tables, skip the traditional floral arrangements and go with potted plants instead. This year, more couples are going with succulents over big bouquets to decorate tables.

Dark Accents for a Moody Vibe

While the spring season is known for its bright and bold colors, one way to add a more dimensional and stand-out look is to go with dark accents. Consider black plates for meals, shades of gray for linens, or even darker colored spotlights around the dance floor. The contrast between bright colored flowers and darker accents creates a moody and intimate atmosphere.

Greenhouse or Garden Venues

This spring, more couples are looking for outdoor venues to compliment aspects of their wedding plans. If you already booked your venue for the big day but are looking for spots to host a welcome reception or post-wedding brunch, consider a location that taps into the fresh elements of the season, like a local greenhouse or garden.
