So can there possibly be anything new this year?  Of course there can be and if not we just take something old and make it new again!  Florists do that all the time.  Many of our original ideas are loosely taken from something we've already seen.  Then we put our own touch on it.  For colors this year, violet and purple with greens are still popular.  That can be difficult if you are looking for that just right color of purple.  You may want to look into adding other colors up against eggplant or lavender dresses.  As far as style, the hand-tied is still the favorite.  Cascades are popping up here and there to compliment some of the 1960/70's influences.  Keep in mind that cascades are heavier and more expensive.  We keep seeing new flowers on the market so that part of my job is always new....and every week, each wedding is unique and totally new.  That's the best part of my job!
