Trending Now: Wedding Ceremony Aisles Lined with Potted Plants

Our experts called it: Potted plants along ceremony aisles is officially one of the most predominant wedding trends of 2018. And for good reason. Large or small, greenery-centric or completely floral, potted aisle displays can transform a service space into a verdant garden, whether or not you're exchanging vows in one. Like the rest of your big day's floral (or nonfloral!) décor, these arrangements bring a touch of color and seasonality to your fête—and look good doing it.

The following flora and fauna arrangements, which were spotted at real couple's weddings, prove just that. Some brides and grooms took "potted" literally and displayed dainty, pretty pieces (like house plants and succulents!) in ceramic and terracotta bowls. Others enlisted the help of their floral designers to craft lusher, larger-than-life centerpiece-style creations that didn't just decorate their aisles—they defined the space entirely. As for the most elaborate ideas? One couple opted for eucalyptus and peony displays that looked more like voluminous garlands than potted arrangements (a clever optical illusion!). Another used fall-time foliage, including tons of pampas grass, to give an otherwise simple pink display major verticality.

Some couples turned to their venues when designing these ceremony aisle florals. For a twosome marrying in a grassy grove with the view of Wyoming's mountains in the distance, they chose delphinium arrangements that looked like they sprung out of the overgrown landscape.
