When it comes to wedding symbolism, circles are fairly universal. They're spatially infinite and represent wholeness, totality, and perfection. You'd be hard-pressed to find a shape that better epitomizes your union with your spouse-to-be—which is why many modern couples are actually incorporating circle details into their ceremony and reception décor. The result? Floral- and-greenery packed hoop details that are just as beautiful as they are meaningful.

Take the following circle décor ideas from real weddings, for example. From in-bloom hoop ceremony backdrops to the prettiest bridesmaid bouquet alternatives and everything in between, these inspired, on-trend details are bound to make a poignant impression. The best part? There's a way to make these details work whatever your wedding style—and whatever time of year you decide to walk down the aisle. Although many of these options showcase pretty blooms, there are plenty of ways to dial the hoop trend down, too. Take notes from one couple and opt for a circular straw arrangement, instead, or else stick with rings of leafy greens. They look creates just as much impact without being too overwhelming.

Ultimately, these pretty hoops bring a bit of intrigue to virtually any part of your wedding—your head-table, outdoor tent, and reception lounge included. Whether you're setting up a circular swing for your guests to sway on, putting a twist on classic place card presentation, or simply dressing up your venue, these hoop wedding details are sure to bring individuality, meaning, and a whole lot of pretty to your big day.

If you think that the hoop trend is limited to décor, Sharleen and Shannon of Sweet Celebrations prove that loops look just as lovely on wedding cake. The duo used green wire and grape vine to form this confection's dimensional circles, punctuated by berries, sugar succulents, and tiny blooms.

Hoops Galore

If you're as in love with the hoop trend as we are, don't opt for just one loop. To switch things up, copy this JL Designs creation and hang multiple circles (use different types of greens for a more visually-intriguing piece!) from a traditional ceremony arch.

Your ceremony hoop isn't just a symbol of your everlasting union or a decorative floral arrangement—it's also a frame. Highlight a spectacular view, like this scenic New York City skyline, by placing your hoop in just the right spot, like Gardenia Organic's did here.

These "chandeliers" prove that hoops are often the jumping off point for more involved décor. Wooden sticks, floral bunches, and hanging lightbulbs, like this creation from Steven Boyle Design, transform these basic embroidery hoops into an extraordinary tent installation.
