Cotton candy: it's having a moment, and we don't mean at the county fair.

If you're attending a wedding in 2019, you may just see the sweet treat featured not only as a dessert, but in bouquets and boutonnieres as well.

Alison Andersen, owner of Lollipuff Gourmet Cotton Candy in Provo, Utah, told "GMA" the company has been catering weddings for the last four years and in the last few has seen "a very big increase."

"Cotton candy is the new cupcake," Andersen said. The company offers it in 30 flavors, including passion fruit, coconut, mango chili, lime ricky and lavender.

Sara Goodwin used the company for her wedding in Salt lake City. "It made for some adorable, colorful, and unique photos of our wedding that we will cherish forever," she told "GMA."

Lillian told "GMA" she thinks the flower crown has trend potential. "It breaks tradition and I think it would appeal to brides looking to do something a little outside of the box," she said.
