Try These Beautiful Fall Wedding Trends

Brides this year are branching out from colors that mimic the orangey hues of changing trees and adding surprising colors like white to their bouquets. Why choose white flowers? Well, the color white helps make those autumn colors pop and stand out, particular when you’re using vibrantly dark pink lilies and delicious orange roses that look so beautiful you could practically serve them as an entrée!

Another beautiful trend this year features the use of sprigs of greenery that aren’t green anymore and have turned into perfect colors like light brown and dusky gray. Imagine a beautifully large centerpiece with dark pink oriental lilies and orange roses, surrounded by fall-hued sprigs and stems.

One trend that’s influencing the entire appearance of the ceremony and reception is the use of warm, rustic lanterns. These creative hanging lights may feature tassels or beads in autumn colors, as well as golden and orange candles placed around the tables or in wall sconces.

What Fall Flowers Should I Choose?

Saying goodbye to the summer doesn’t mean saying goodbye to all the flowers, too. There are some amazing color combinations and flowers that are perfect for fall weddings like centerpieces of pink roses, yellow sunflowers, and red berries.

One creative way to display your flowers at your reception is to place small bowls of floating candles and sunflowers around trendy little martini glasses that your guests can use to get caramel appletinis in a perfectly golden fall hue.

Even if your wedding lands on an unseasonably warm day and it doesn’t feel anything like fall, using the bright colors of autumn, such as flowers in red and orange, will help your guests remember they’re at a fall wedding. Other beautiful color combinations you might consider include gold, taupe and chocolate or sage, auburn, and bronze.

Autumn weddings are beautiful whether you’re getting married just as summer ends at the fall equinox or close to Thanksgiving when the temperatures are a little crisper in November.
