Holiday Trends 2025

As the holiday season quickly sneaks up on us, stress levels for florists and floral designers can rise. However, it’s also a fantastic time to experiment and get ahead of what's trendy this season. Get ready to add a festive flair into your arrangements! Here’s how to incorporate some of this year's trendy themes, all while managing the holiday hustle.

Champagne and Pearls

The Champagne and Pearls trend features soft, bright, and airy colors. Incorporate delicate blooms like white peonies or roses alongside light-colored foliage. Use pearl-like accents, such as pearl sprays or bead garlands, to enhance the luxurious feel.

Green and Gold

Channeling Wizard of Oz vibes, the Green and Gold trend allows florists to play with rich greens and shimmering golds. Use foliage like eucalyptus and ferns, accented with gold-painted branches or golden floral picks. These arrangements bring out a sense of whimsy and magic, perfect for holiday parties or festive home displays.

Floral Focus

Not feeling the traditional Christmas greenery in your arrangements? Or maybe you want to offer something fresh for customers who aren’t obsessed with classic holiday greens. Try building an arrangement made entirely of flowers! Think festive floral wreaths in seasonal colors, accented with fun details like beads, ornaments, or floral picks.

Nostalgia

With a nod to tradition, the Nostalgia trend encourages florists to embrace the classic American family Christmas aesthetics. Think classic arrangements featuring holly, ribbon, hand-made decor elements, and traditional reds and greens. Simple goes a long way.

Frosted Elegance

This holiday season, embrace the ethereal beauty of Frosted Elegance, which transforms your Christmas decor into a winter wonderland. Featuring clear and transparent glass ornaments, delicate icicles, and shimmering frosty accents, this aesthetic evokes the enchanting allure of a crystal-laden landscape. Incorporate soft whites, icy blues, and silver tones to create a serene atmosphere that glistens in the holiday lights.

Woodland Wonder

For those who love rustic charm, the Woodland Wonder trend blends natural elements with elegance. Create arrangements using a mix of evergreens, branches, and textured elements like birch bark or pinecones. Feel free to gather your own materials outdoors. Incorporating paper products —like handmade ornaments or tags — can provide a personalized touch.

Ribbons and Bows

Ribbons and Bows are a key accessory this season, bringing a dainty, sweet aesthetic to floral designs. Use pastel, metallic, or seasonal ribbons accents in arrangements. Incorporating ribbon into wreaths or garlands elevates your designs, making them more visually appealing and festive.

Celestial Dreamscape

A magical, otherworldly mood takes over this theme —cool and luminous, like winter night skies. Use midnight blues, silver shimmer, star motifs, reflective surfaces, and handmade elements. It feels elegant, modern, and quietly enchanting. This theme is perfect for tablescapes and display tables.
