Fall Decorations

The first thing to start thinking about when planning a fall wedding is your colors. You want to pick warm colors to decorate the aisle for your ceremony. Pew decorations in any of these shades are great suggestions: Burnt sienna, red, orange, and mustard. A modern fall color scheme is chocolate brown with light blue accents.

A cream, ivory, or off-white color gown is best. Since fall weather is very unpredictable, bridesmaids can wear a strapless style dress with a wrap. This way, they will be comfortable and stylish no matter what the temperature is! My sister got lucky at her October wedding. She lived in a southern state with completely unpredictable cold fronts. Luckily, one came on her wedding day and it was a perfect cool crisp night for her reception. What if a cold front had not come through? The bridesmaids would have taken off their wraps and been fine!

Add a unique detail to your ceremony by giving the flower girl silk fall leaves to scatter instead of petals.

An old Inn or Bed & Breakfast is an ideal place for a fall reception. (Remember the Inn where the mother works on The Gilmore Girls? Either of these locations will give that same small-town romantic feel to your guests.) A vineyard or apple orchard is another great idea.

If you happen to live in Florida , where you cannot see any signs of the changing seasons, search for an indoor venue with rich dark wood and warmth. One example is a university club.

Haystacks can be placed outside the entrance to the reception for a stylish decoration. Adding details like ribbon will turn them into something elegant! You can also decorate the walkway leading up to the reception location with paper bag luminaries. Or place them throughout the venue.

For something really cute and unique, find or rent an old-fashioned flower cart and use it for your gifts.

You can use pumpkins carved with the names of the couple as table centerpieces. White or blue natural pumpkins will add an elegant and unique touch. Autumn colored candles or votives tied with ribbons in harvest colors also make great fall centerpieces. Remember to use unscented candles at indoor events. Fall is a popular time for allergies. Scents will make allergies even worse.

Add cinnamon sticks and cloves to the punch or drinks for a simple fall touch!

If you love sweet stuff, give out caramel apples wrapped in cellophane for favors.
