The comprehensive report, Thanksgiving in Bloom: A Designer's Guide to 2025 Regional Floral Trends, offers a coast-to-coast analysis of five emerging design movements for holiday flowers, providing an authoritative resource for hosts nationwide seeking authentic, sophisticated floral arrangements.— Emily Limas
The 3,850-word guide, authored by founder and lead designer Emily Limas, includes detailed regional breakdowns, professional care instructions, climate-specific recommendations, and over 20 frequently asked questions to help hosts create memorable Thanksgiving celebrations.
A National Shift Toward Authentic, Place-Based Design
The new report from Grace & Blooms charts a significant movement away from a universal Thanksgiving aesthetic and toward designs that reflect regional identity and culture. It serves as a definitive guide for a national audience that values intentional, story-driven decor for their Thanksgiving centerpieces.
"Thanksgiving is a uniquely American holiday, and its expressions of gratitude are becoming more personal and place-based than ever before," said Emily Limas, founder and lead designer of Grace & Blooms. "This guide explores that beautiful diversity. Whether you're in the Northeast drawing on generational heritage or in the Pacific Northwest embracing sustainability, your Thanksgiving flowers can tell a powerful story about where you are."
Five Distinct Regional Aesthetics Shaping the 2025 Holiday
The guide provides comprehensive analysis and actionable design advice for five key regional trends shaping American holiday floral arrangements:
The Northeast – Vintage Prep: These arrangements are built on heritage and tradition, featuring heirloom mums and amaryllis in rich jewel tones of burgundy, forest green, and complex mustard yellow. Designs emphasize verticality using pewter urns, cut-crystal vessels, and velvet accents that evoke generational storytelling. Perfect for hosts honoring family traditions passed down through generations.
The South – Coastal Warmth & Gulf Elegance: These sophisticated, low-profile designs pair the glossy, structural drama of magnolia leaves with the lush elegance of hydrangea and amaryllis. This aesthetic celebrates the refined opulence of Gulf Coast entertaining with broad, conversation-friendly centerpieces that embody gracious Southern hospitality.
The Midwest – Meadow Modernism: These textural, abundant compositions reflect a refined farm-to-table ethos, using dahlias, dried grasses, wheat, berries, and the elevated use of variegated brown tones. Designs sprawl horizontally to create the feeling of a cultivated harvest field. Honoring the heartland's agricultural heritage with contemporary elegance.
The Mountain West – Architectural Form: High-drama, sculptural arrangements that use structural branches, Phalaenopsis Orchids, and deliberate negative space to echo the scale and raw beauty of the landscape. Vessels are substantial. Oxidized copper, cast iron, or dark stone reflecting the region's rugged geology.
The Pacific Northwest – Intentional Imperfection: Mindful, foraged-style asymmetrical compositions featuring ferns, moss, and muted blooms that honor sustainability and the region's verdant, misty landscape. Designs use organic, unglazed pottery and embrace the Slow Flower philosophy.
The guide also addresses regional climate considerations, helping hosts adapt these aesthetics to their local environment while maintaining design integrity.
Climate-Smart Design and the Fresh Arrival Guarantee
Beyond aesthetics, the guide underscores a philosophy of intentional craftsmanship that has become Grace & Blooms' signature. The studio's approach emphasizes climate-smart floral selection and meticulous conditioning, ensuring arrangements maintain their integrity throughout the long holiday weekend. Critical for hosts whose reputations are tied to flawless execution.
"True luxury lies in the flawless execution of a sophisticated vision," Limas stated. "This guide showcases our design authority on a national level and reflects the same standard of excellence we apply to every arrangement we create, whether it's a grand centerpiece or thoughtful sympathy flowers for a family in need."
Each regional section includes specific care instructions, climate considerations, and professional designer tips to maximize longevity. The guide addresses common challenges such as protecting arrangements during cold-weather transit in the Northeast, managing humidity in Southern climates, and working with dry mountain air in Western states.
The studio's commitment to longevity is reflected in its signature Fresh Arrival Guarantee, a promise that has become central to the Grace & Blooms philosophy of excellence.
Industry-Informed Design Education
The comprehensive guide draws on authoritative sources to provide professional-level insights for home hosts. Limas references the Smithsonian Gardens for regional botanical insights, the Flower Council of Holland for palette trends, and principles taught by the American Institute of Floral Designers (AIFD) for technical execution.
"We're seeing a real hunger for authentic, regionally-appropriate design that moves beyond generic holiday aesthetics," noted Limas. "This guide gives hosts and event professionals the education and confidence to create tablescapes that feel both personal and professionally executed."
The full guide is available now at The Bloom Letter, Grace & Blooms' design journal, featuring detailed information on regional trends, flower care instructions, and Thanksgiving entertaining advice.
