New year, new style. The top event decor trends of 2025 are already making waves—bold, intentional, and full of personality. Whether you’re planning a wedding, an extravagant party, a corporate soirée, or an unforgettable grad party, staying on trend can help your event feel fresh and unforgettable.
At TCFLinen, we’re here for it. We work with planners and pros across the country to bring these ideas to life through high-quality linens, backdrops, and standout decor.
Here’s a look at the event decor trends defining 2025—and how to make them work for your next big celebration.
Our Picks for the 6 Best Event Decor Trends of 2025
1. Opulent Drapery, Dreamily Done
In 2025, luxury drapery isn’t just an accent—it’s the main event. We’re seeing full-scale fabric installations take over event spaces, from ceilings to walls, wrapping guests in a cocoon of softness and sophistication.
It’s all about creating immersive environments that feel intimate, elegant, and utterly unforgettable.
Whether working with rich jewel tones or whisper-soft neutrals, this look is endlessly versatile—and always dramatic.
- Drapery that coats the ceiling and the walls
- Flowing fabric backdrops
- Jewel tones: emerald, sapphire, ruby
- Muted palettes and calming neutrals
2. Maximalist Florals Take Center Stage
Florals are going all out this year—think bigger, bolder, and downright show-stopping. From floating floral chandeliers to sprawling, lush runners that spill over tables, event designers transform venues into full-blown botanical dreamscapes.
The coolest part? You don’t have to go fresh to be fabulous. Faux florals deliver the same visual impact with less fuss, fewer allergy concerns, and much simpler logistics.
- Floral chandelier arrangements
- Overflowing floral table runners
- Faux florals are in!
3. Engagement-Driven Interactive Experiences
Events aren’t always just about aesthetics anymore. Many forward-thinking event planners are prioritizing how guests feel by adding interactive installations.
Foster engagement between guests and create new memories and friendships that last long after the event.
- Interactive art walls
- DIY stations (floral crowns, candle pouring, custom favors)
- Immersive photo moments
- Message boards & memory walls
4. Wild Greenery, Wilder Style
2025 is all about embracing the wild side of nature, whether it’s bringing the outdoors indoors or creating lush, vibrant spaces that make guests feel like they’ve stepped into a garden oasis. Think towering greenery overhead, dense table arrangements, and organic accents that envelope everyone in natural beauty and energy. It’s not just decor—a reminder to pause, breathe, and savor the moment.
And just like with florals, faux greenery is stepping up, offering all the lush benefits without the upkeep.
- Verdant overhead installations
- Lush greenery table arrangements
- Greenery garlands and backdrops
- Faux plants for an eco-friendly, low-maintenance option
5. Stripes Are Having a Moment
Stripes always come and go in fashion, and that goes double for event planning. Classic on their own, stripes can create a preppy or dramatic vision depending on what their co-stars are. They’re bold but highly versatile, making them an excellent canvas for a vision, which is why they’re having a moment in 2025.
- Preppy, nautical-inspired linens
- Bold black-and-white backdrops
- Mixed-width stripe layering
- Accent patterns for chairs, drapes, and table runners
6. Glow Up: Iridescent Is In
Iridescent is a multidimensional hue that effortlessly shifts between purple, blue, and pink, catching the light (and every guest’s eye!) with each angle. It’s a bold and celebratory color that is undeniably mesmerizing–making it the perfect focal point for events that want to be festive and unforgettable.
Use it to add a sense of movement, magic, and mood—because it doesn’t go unnoticed when iridescent shows up.
- Iridescent sequin backdrops
- Holographic charger plates or glassware
- Accent drapery with shimmer
- Statement linens that shift with the light
Being on the cutting edge of event decor trends this year will go a long way towards ensuring that your events are memorable. However, there are other ways to improve your event and what goes on behind the scenes.
