Fall Weddings

Summer has always been affectionately known as “wedding season”. A couple can get married outside, have gorgeous bouquets and anything goes. Fall, however, is not typically known as a wedding season but can still be beautifully done whether the bride and groom want to go extreme with pumpkins and gourds or want to keep it simple by just infusing fall colors.

Invitations

The invitations and “Save the Date” cards can be done numerous ways without going overboard on the theme. These can be printed on paper with leaves faded in the background or can have a leaf border. The idea is to subtly infuse Fall with the wedding, not smack guests in the face with leaves at every turn.

If the leaf image isn’t quite what the couple is going for they can simply have invitations created in the colors of fall; orange, yellow and red. Each piece of the invitation can be a different color, from the actual announcement and the RSVP card, to the directions to the ceremony. A nice touch on those would be a leaf shaped charm connected to each announcement.

Ceremony and Flowers

To decorate the pews the couple could opt for fall colored flowers or they could go a little funkier and use wheat stalks with some hypericum berries tied on with fall colored ribbon. The flower girl could drop fake fall leaves down the aisle instead of rose petals to really elicit that Fall feeling.


The bouquets of summer can be much like the bouquets of autumn. If the bride loves roses the flower arrangements can be Fall colored roses. According to wedding experts at Elegala.com, brides should choose a bouquet based on what's in bloom during that season. Autumn brides can choose between roses, gerbera daisies, marigolds, sunflowers, and more. The hypericum berries look very festive in the bouquet as well.

  1. The third picture down with the fall trees framing the outsides of the aisle. Where is that taken or done?
