Floral backdrops are having a moment, and it's a big one. Gone are the traditional swags of flowers draped just so in favor of boldly artistic arrangements that say a lot about a couple's style. And it makes sense. A wedding backdrop typically frames the ceremonial spot, so it's a major focal point and a meaningful one. We've seen living walls of flowers, floral chandeliers, hanging circular installations and canopies that make use of everything from carnations to roses. A statement floral backdrop not only anchors the altar area and creates visual interest for your guests, it can help distinguish your wedding from others, especially if your venue is a popular spot.

Summer weddings have always been a bit iconic. In fact, #SummerWedding has been a trending hashtag for years. Perhaps there was a romantic reason, like the long, lingering evenings which allowed for extended receptions. Or maybe it was a more practical reason, as guests are more likely to be free to travel in the summer months. However, since 2015, summer weddings are no longer the number one choice of brides nationwide. While it is true that 33% of brides choosing June, July, or August for their nuptials, nearly 40% now choose the autumn months.
Here in Sarasota, our seasons may be a little different than in other places, but brides are increasingly choosing the fall as the right time to say "I do".
