If you are trying to choose a month for your wedding, there’s something so warm and cozy about fall and this feeling lends itself to make a perfect time for a wedding. The color palette for this season is everything from orange and brown to deep green and the occasional deep purple. You can mimic the browns and oranges you would see out- side and pair them with gold and olive. This season can place an emphasis on natural elements you find in a rural setting, such as rustic farm tables and twigs to hold signs. Lilies and roses can be intertwined with artichokes and grapes that captured the abundance of the season.
Some of the featured menu items can be displayed in pumpkin soup bowls or pumpkins carved into dish like shapes. The dessert table can be laden with apple, pecan, and sweet potato pies.
Gorgeous natural foliage and temperate weather make for great fall weddings. But for all of autumn’s positive attributes, there are still potential issues that you need to keep in mind while planning a fall wedding.
First, keep in mind that even if guests are comfortable at your afternoon wedding ceremony, they need to prepare for the temperature to drop in the evening. One idea: Arrange bins of inexpensive wraps at the reception entrance, or set up heat lamps in outdoor areas where guests will want to relax. You could even embrace the season with a few fire pits (and maybe some s’mores!)
Another common obstacle is fall wedding flowers. Though many popular wedding blooms are not in season during this time of the year, this is the perfect opportunity to get creative with a fall wedding bouquet. Incorporate unexpected plants like wheat, crabapples, and ornamental vegetables.
Finally, remember to do your research when selecting an autumn wedding date. There are many holidays during the fall – including Thanksgiving and the Jewish high holidays — but by doing your research you can help your guests avoid scheduling conflicts. Don’t let these potential pitfalls scare you, though — fall weddings are worth every bit of effort.
