Looking for inspiration to take your bouquet or wedding flower game up to eleven? We tapped the talents of our offbeat wedding vendors to see what new trends were popping up in wedding flowers. We found some fabulously offbeat bouquets and flowers that played with colors, textures, and all kinds of details.

From ombre rainbows and underwater scenes to baby cacti and comic book paper flowers, there was a TON to see.

Here are a few of my favorite unique wedding flowers and bouquets…

Here's what Jubilee Event Engineers told us about this display…

Keeping with our underwater theme, we layered vintage Japanese glass fishing floats to echo the bubbles of the impressive entry fish tank at the Seattle Aquarium. The main vase is circled by spraying bamboo in bud vases, candles, and sprinkled sea glass.
