Summary:

  • The use of flowers in weddings is becoming more diverse.
  • Decorations that are mindful of social media sharing are becoming commonplace.
  • Innovative ideas are being sought to pursue individuality through the use of flowers.

Background Changes in the Era

① Adult Perspective

The proliferation of social media has accelerated the trend of valuing individuality and uniqueness in wedding decorations. This is because the ease of information sharing has led to a demand for differentiation from other couples.

② Children’s Perspective

The wedding photos and videos that children see are all vibrant and special. This influences their ideal vision of a wedding in the future. Children are prompted to think about how they want to stage their own “special day”.

③ Parents’ Perspective

As parents, we hope that our children will cherish their own values while preparing for their weddings, rather than getting swept away by trends. We need to think about how we can support them as parents in line with societal changes.

If This Progresses, What Will the Future Look Like?

Hypothesis 1 (Neutral): A Future Where Customization Becomes the Norm

Wedding decorations will become increasingly individualistic, and the range of customization will expand. The ways in which flowers are chosen and arranged may become more diverse and standardized as part of venue decorations. This trend may also influence other events and daily decorations, making it commonplace to create one’s own space.

Hypothesis 2 (Optimistic): A Future Where the Use of Flowers Develops Greatly

With technological advancements, it is likely that not only fresh flowers but also virtual flowers and flowers made from sustainable materials will become popular. This will promote environmental considerations and enable the enjoyment of the beauty of flowers in more situations. Additionally, new flower varieties and colors will be developed, increasing options and enhancing creativity.

Hypothesis 3 (Pessimistic): A Future Where the Value of Traditional Flowers is Lost

With an overwhelming focus on individuality, the traditional ways of using flowers and their meanings might be forgotten. This could lead to the loss of the culture and history associated with flowers, emphasizing their role merely as decorative items. Changes in values might dilute the symbolism and emotion that flowers carry.
