The summer
has ended, the leaves are falling, and fall has arrived. Fall offers an opportunity for a warm,
cozy wedding. The setting is
romantic, the colors are rich and the options are endless. Outdoor weddings are ideal, as due to
longer summers, the weather is still mild and the scenery is beautiful. Parks, barns and vineyards make
excellent settings this time of year.
If you will be celebrating this day indoors, bring some of the outdoors
with you. Leaves, tree branches
and even in-season fruit such as apples can make excellent additions to your
wedding décor. Be creative!
Fall is the
season for rich, warm colors and earth tones. Gold tones, oranges, reds, chocolate browns and even shades
of olive are some of the dominant tones this season. These colors can be used in any and every aspect of your
wedding. Incorporate these colors in your bridal party attire, reception décor,
invites, the options are endless. For a romantic look, incorporate candles in
your table centrepieces.
Transparent vases filled with fruit have also become a new trend in the
fall season. Use fruit that match
the color scheme of your wedding such as red apples or yellow pears.
There are plenty of options when planning a
fall wedding. Party favours,
wedding invitations and even seating cards have several options for each, all
relating to a fall wedding. This
theme can also be expressed in your cake decorations. Earth tone ribbons and fondant leaves make for excellent
decorations to tie the fall theme together
