Deck Your Halls with the Perfect Floral Color Combos
Holiday decor transcends time, place, even any lingering family discord, instantly creating a festive mood. Whether you’re hosting a celebratory dinner, planning a corporate holiday party or styling your home for the season, choosing the right floral color palette is imperative to creating an elevated, intentional look. Like at all of our Bouquet Box Flower Bar events where we help guests design custom arrangements that feel sophisticated, on-trend, and effortless, these five holiday color palettes draw from modern and classic styles, creating wonderfully curated moments that are perfect for gathering and celebrating.
CLASSIC RED + GREEN
Timeless, festive, and elegant
This iconic holiday palette works beautifully when styled with restraint. Think rich reds paired with deep, moody greens rather than overly bright tones. Dot with different textures and accents of white and cream to control overstating the signature narrative. Keep arrangements low and lush for dining tables or dramatic for entryways.
Luxury Flowers:
Red roses, calla lilies, anemones, ranunculus, hypericum berries, Italian ruscus, willow eucalyptus, magnolia foliage
WINTER WHITES
Clean, modern, and serene
A winter white palette feels effortlessly chic and photographs beautifully. Perfect for minimalist homes, upscale events and New Year’s celebrations, this look is all about texture and layering rather than color contrast.
Luxury Flowers:
White roses, phalaenopsis orchids, ranunculus, anemones, hellebore, limonium, white berries, Dusty Miller
JEWEL TONES
Rich, dramatic, and sophisticated
Jewel tones add depth and drama to holiday decor and feel especially elegant for evening events. These colors pair well with metallic accents and candlelight, making them ideal for cocktail parties and corporate gatherings.
Luxury Flowers:
Burgundy dahlias, plum ranunculus, garden roses, anemones, scabiosa, deep green foliage
NEUTRAL + NATURAL
Warm, organic, and elevated
This palette is perfect for those who love a cozy yet refined aesthetic and are more tuned into the season as opposed to any particular holiday. Soft neutrals mixed with natural textures and layered details create arrangements that feel inviting and focused on the quiet beauty of winter.
Luxury Flowers:
Toffee roses, quicksand roses, cappuccino roses, dahlias, lisianthus, dried palms, pampas grass, eucalyptus, olive branches
