When couples think of planning their fall wedding, often their first thoughts are to use pumpkins, and go with a color scheme of orange and brown for their fall wedding decor.
You don’t have to settle for this typical fall style. Instead, think out of the box, and embrace the season, with these fun ideas (which I had the pleasure of sharing these ideas on Fox 45 in the Morning in Dayton).
1) Fall gives us an abundant array of colors. Yes, we see a lot of browns and oranges, but we also see deep purples, reds, and golds.
2) We start seeing more textures and richer colors in the fall. We start wearing clothing in heavier fabrics and deeper, muted colors.
3) Fill a simple vase with acorns and use as centerpieces for your guests’ tables, or smaller vases for the smaller cocktail hour bistro tables.
4) Leaves are a quintessential icon of Fall, and make a great, and inexpensive, alternative to flower petals.
5) Decorate with gourds and mini pumpkins. (You can also use bowls of seasonal fruit, such as apples, pears, grapes as centerpieces).
6) Add simple touches to your fall wedding decor that are stunning, and give an extra “wow” factor, such as:
- Tuck a few stems of wheat into the pocket fold of the napkins. Don’t you just love the almost feathery look they have?
- What says “Fall” more than S’mores? Give your guests S’mores kit as favors. Paper Blooms N More can create personalized S’Mores kits with your names and wedding date (or whatever you’d like) laser engraved on the marshmallow. (Who wouldn’t want to “Fall in S’More Love”?)
7) Fall flowers come in such amazing colors and textures.
