COLOUR, CREATIVITY & UNFORGETTABLE MOMENTS

Spring is here, and there’s no better season to say, ‘I do.’ Fresh mornings, bright skies, and nature in full bloom provide the perfect inspiration for wedding décor, flowers, and styling. Liz Taylor of Taylor Lynn Corporation shares her top tips for an unforgettable Spring wedding, from cakes to dresses, décor, colours, and catering. If you’re planning a wedding this season, this is your essential guide.

SPRING WEDDING CAKES

Floral fancies – Spring wedding cakes are a statement, reflecting the vibrancy of the season. Pressed edible flowers on semi-naked cakes are replacing rigid sugar designs, creating an organic, elegant finish. Think croquembouche towers with cascading fruit-and-floral arrangements that look as incredible as they taste.

Candy colours – Spring 2025 weddings embrace colour. Pastels, coral, powder blue, and soft pinks dominate wedding cakes, either as full-colour icing or in stunning ombré effects.

Standout flavours – Ditch the predictable vanilla and chocolate—2025 wedding cakes are all about bold, unexpected flavours. Imagine Earl Grey-infused sponge, tangy passion fruit fillings, or rich pistachio buttercream. Sweet-savoury pairings like rosemary honey or salted caramel with dark chocolate add intrigue, while adventurous options like matcha, chai spice, or mango-lime deliver a fresh twist.

SPRING WEDDING DRESSES

The colour revolution – Brides are moving beyond white. Pastel wedding dresses are making a bold return, from soft pinks and blues to striking bold hues.  

Waisted – The 1920s-inspired, super-flattering drop waist continues to dominate with bejewelled bodices and structured silhouettes. The halter neck, that’s one to watch.

Flower power – Floral embellishments reflect the season’s natural beauty, with botanical-inspired additions to match your bouquet.

Even grooms and groomsmen are stepping up with pastel-hued shirts and stylish pops of colour. Be inspired by the red-carpet and own the moment!

SPRING WEDDING DÉCOR

Elegant backdrops – Natural sophisticated fabrics continue to dominate. Crisp linens, and velvet accents add texture and sophistication. Think dramatic draping in sensuous fabrics, cascading from ceilings or creating romantic backdrops. Overhead, hanging chandeliers and festoon lights create stunning feature lighting.

Surprising colour – Colour isn’t just for flowers—tablescapes are coming alive with vibrant crockery, vintage-style glassware, and bold linens. Swap traditional white for jewel tones and patterns. Think painted farmhouse chairs in your wedding palette for a personalised, eye-catching touch.

Upside down – Floral canopies continue to captivate, and spring weddings take them to the next level. Instead of traditional hanging wisteria, expect dynamic suspended bouquets of spring blooms. Singular hanging stems create a breathtaking floating garden effect.

Inside out – Outdoor weddings remain a dominant trend, with tents, tipis, and stylish canopies seamlessly blending indoor elegance with the beauty of nature.

SPRING WEDDING CATERING

Seafood spotlight – Spring weddings demand fresh, light menus, and seafood is the go-to choice. Oyster bars, seafood kebabs, and paella-sharing tables add a theatrical, interactive element. Pan-fried salmon with samphire provides a refined, seasonal main course.

Floral flavours – Edible flowers elevate both food and drinks, bringing a fresh, botanical twist to salads, cocktails, and desserts. Signature cocktails infused with petals and herbs add a sensory experience guests won’t forget.

Festival vibes – Outdoor festival-style catering is here to stay. Food trucks, live cooking stations, and mixologists preparing cocktails on demand create an electric, engaging atmosphere. Guests want an experience, not just a meal—so make it unforgettable.

SPRING WEDDING FAVOURS

Small but mighty – Spring wedding favours should be stylish, seasonal, and memorable. Miniature cocktails in jars, personalised chocolates, and bespoke scented candles allow guests to take a piece of your wedding home.

Eco-conscious gifts – Sustainability is a priority, and couples are opting for meaningful, earth-friendly favours. Personalised seed packets, potted succulents, and herb-infused olive oil bottles offer a thoughtful, lasting reminder of your big day.

Spring weddings are all about colour, creativity, and unforgettable experiences. This season, embrace bold choices, personalise every detail, and make your wedding a true reflection of your style. The trends are set—now it’s time to make them your own.
