Should a bride follow trends when it comes to choosing her wedding flowers?<\/p>\n

Hiding in the City Flowers<\/strong> was launched in London in 2013 by Sarah Loughrey-Jennings. They create floral designs for weddings, events and other occasions. Their signature wedding style is relaxed and unstructured florals that are perfect for ultra-cool brides. We asked Sarah if brides should follow trends when it comes to choosing her wedding flowers.<\/p>\n

\"Wedding

Yes. (Yes and yes again). “I create designs that people feel proud to hold because they are unique, beautiful and feel current and relevant to their style \u2013 it\u2019s what\u00a0<\/span>Hiding in the City Flowers\u00a0is all about,\u201d says the owner Sarah Loughrey-Jennings. I believe that people always have, and always will be led by trends. The word \u2018trend<\/a>\u2019 can be considered as faddy, but please bare with me as to why I think you should give trends a nod on your W-day. Instagram influencers that have thousands of followers and the powerhouses that are <\/span>Vogue, Harper\u2019s Bazaar and Elle <\/span>are so successful because people love keeping up to date with current fashions and emerging styles. Fess up and be honest, we all care about what we look like to some degree, you can only say no if you do not own a single mirror! (If you don\u2019t own a mirror then you win, you can stop reading and just get boring flowers<\/span>J<\/span>). <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Wedding

From watching celebrities on catwalks to clocking the new terrarium hanging in neighbouring conservatories, we are constantly receptive to the changing fashions that are relevant to our personal environments around us. This sub- conscious process of being influenced by what\u2019s \u2018in vogue\u2019 is no different while you\u2019re planning your wedding \u2013 you\u2019ll come across (and be swayed by) a truck-load of different trends, themes and ideas. That\u2019s why at Hiding in the City Flowers we actually welcome couples spamming us with images and ideas as the process evolves, right up to the week before the wedding day. It doesn\u2019t seem fair for us to not accept any changes to your design because as you spend more time thinking about what you want, your vision will grow and change.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Luxury

I make no qualms in saying that weddings are an expensive business and flowers are no exception. Their price before we even touch them is high \u2013 plus they are considered luxury items and with that status, comes a price tag (sorry in advance to your wedding budget spreadsheet!). The thing is, you\u2019re probably going to pay the same sort of price for a typical, standardised bouquet, so why not push the boat out and go for something different, that\u2019s personal to you? The decision sounds like a no-brainer, right? If you\u2019re going to spend all of that money, it may as well be on flowers that you can be proud of, your guests will steal at the end of the night and most importantly, ones that look incredible in your wedding shots.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"Wedding

I can remember needing to order flowers for my friend in a tiny town and called up the local florist, I was a bit nervous as their website was quite traditional, but I explained what I loved and the florist went above and beyond to create a more modern-looking bouquet<\/a> because she loved doing something different. Similarly, I absolutely relish a challenge and also the opportunity of being able to bounce around ideas with my open-minded clients. I entered into floristry to do something creative that I love each and every day and when brides come to me with fresh ideas and contemporary designs it literally (yes literally) fills my heart. Go wild and think outside the box.<\/span><\/p>\n
