Florals 

In 2025, florals-inspired couples are embracing a fresh trend: incorporating fruits and vegetables into their floral designs. From cascading grapevine garlands to bouquets adorned with cabbage and artichokes, the possibilities are endless.

For those with a love for local flavors, glossy pomegranates make a luxurious addition. Paired with native desert plants like the demure sagebrush, which adds texture and fragrance with its silvery leaves and the purple lupine, with its striking purple spires, you can craft a bouquet that’s both unique and connected to Nevada’s natural beauty.

Flowers and foliage in soft pastels and muted colors, such as dusty blue and lavender, are trending in 2025. Wild floral arrangements in unexpected shapes and colors will add an artistic flair to your celebration.

If you’re imagining an outdoor wedding, The Grove offers a lush setting for your statement florals, with its charming gazebo surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens. Consider The Grove’s Grand Garden Wedding & Reception Package, which offers an all-inclusive experience and everything from a ceremony coordinator to a hosted open bar.

Colors and Décor

For spring, it’s all about a fresh take on earthy tones with warm, sunset-inspired colors like a vibrant shade of peach paired with bright oranges and soft pinks. Summer will bring cooler shades like sky blue, light pink and beige, creating a lighter vibe, while fall and winter usher in bolder tones like burnt orange, cinnamon and deep emerald greens. For an elegant contrast, pair these rich greens with pops of hot pinks, oranges or even gold for textures and colors that will shine in photos.

Weddings are embracing a playful yet sophisticated design aesthetic, with bows making a strong statement across multiple elements including candelabras, creating an enchanting focal point. Custom and hand-crafted pieces like sculptures, ceramics and one-of-a-kind table settings that reflect a couple’s unique style are making for memorable celebrations that stand out from traditional wedding décor.

For a unique, outdoor celebration that complements the trend toward enchantment and artistry, consider Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. Its stunning, red sandstone formations will provide an unforgettable backdrop for your wedding.

Wedding Dress Shops

Convertible gowns are taking versatility to the next level in 2025 – dresses with detachable skirts, overshirts, gloves, bows, belts and more offer multiple looks within just one dress. Optimal for brides looking to stretch their budget, this trend allows for easy transitions from ceremony to reception. And don’t forget about the corset – this Regency period-inspired style is still going strong, with many designers leaning into its figure-flattering, silhouette-enhancing effect. Whatever your dress dreams are, here are some local spots to shop for your bridal look.

Whatever your budget is, Fashion Show Las Vegas has the perfect look for your big day. Iconic department stores like Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue anchor the Strip-side mall, which also has designer stores and specialty boutiques.

Looking for fashion-house luxury? Wynn Las Vegas offers not one, not two, but three shopping experiences with its Wynn Plaza Shops, Wynn Esplanade and Encore Esplanade. Balmain, Chanel and Roberto Cavalli are just a few of the fabulous stores to choose from.
