    Forget roses and lilies! The latest wedding trend? Edible bouquets. Yes, you read that right! Couples are now turning to produce to bring a quirky touch to their big day. Potatoes, pineapples, and other fruits and veggies are making their way down the aisle, and it’s got everyone talking. Here’s why spuds and tropical fruits are taking center stage in wedding décor.

    Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

    Potatoes may be humble, but they’re versatile, sturdy, and surprisingly photogenic! Picture your bridesmaids holding bouquets of golden potatoes, arranged with sprigs of rosemary for a rustic vibe. Unlike flowers, potatoes won’t wilt halfway through the ceremony, and they offer a fun, farm-fresh look.

    For a more tropical take, pineapples are becoming a popular choice. With their lush green tops and vibrant yellow skin, pineapples add a pop of color and a hint of paradise to the ceremony. Bonus points if the couple met on vacation or are honeymooning in the tropics!

    Why Couples are Loving Edible Décor

    There’s something so appealing about decorations that serve multiple purposes! Using potatoes or pineapples isn’t just eco-friendly and budget-conscious; it’s also a fun conversation starter for guests. Plus, guests can take home a potato or two for some creative souvenirs.

    Whether you love the down-to-earth feel of potatoes or the bright punch of pineapples, this trend is proving that a wedding can be beautiful, affordable, and deliciously unique! Would you swap flowers for spuds on your big day? Let us know in the comments!
