Planning a Fall Theme Wedding
Couples who opt to have a fall wedding theme could not have
picked a more perfect time of year. There is something about the
autumn air that leaves us feeling refreshed. The cooler, crisp days
are a welcomed break from summer.
Fall theme weddings allow couples to incorporate nature into their
wedding decor. This is great for those who consider themselves
nature lovers. The natural beauty of autumn blends wonderfully with
weddings creating a simple and wholesome decor.

Weddings are beautiful regardless of what season they are held.
However fall weddings have a richness that is typically not seen in
weddings held during other times of the year. Those planning a fall
theme wedding should consult bridal books for a step-by-step guide.
Here are some helpful suggestions to get you started.
When planning a wedding it is important to secure a location.
Certain times of the year may make it difficult to find a suitable
location. Most weddings occur during summer and spring, therefore
couples who marry in the fall may not have a hard time finding a
location. Nonetheless, this vital detail should not be put off.
Fall theme weddings are perfect for outdoors. The bold color of
trees and falling leaves add a natural decor. Outdoor weddings
during autumn are also great because the weather is much cooler, and
less rainy than traditional spring or summer weddings. Backyards,
gardens, or parks are suitable locations. The goal is to find a
location that showcases autumn foliage.
When planning an fall theme wedding it is essential to incorporate
colors that are associated with fall. Traditional fall color schemes
include reds, oranges, browns, and yellows. Fall is know as the
harvest season, thus any earth tone will be fitting. These colors
should be used to decorate the wedding and reception area. Chair
covers and tablecloths should be a fall color.
The bridal party’s attire should match the color scheme. Matching
all color is important. Some brides prefer their bridesmaid to wear
bright color dresses such as pinks or pastels. Although pretty,
these colors may not blend well with an autumn theme.
Fall wedding flowers are perfect for autumn weddings. Flowers that
are available in autumn include mums, daisies, wild flowers, and
fall leaves. Fall leaves are perfect for decorating tables. Leaves
are easily available and perfect for couples on a budget. Those who
choose to use real leaves should clean them thoroughly before
placing them on tables. Synthetic leaves are a great alternative to
real leaves.
Fall is harvest season, therefore decorating the reception with
pumpkins, corn, and squash add a unique touch. Wedding menus should
also reflect a traditional fall meal. Foods typically served during
the fall months include turkey, roasts, mashed potatoes, and corn.
Pumpkin pie can be substituted for wedding cake.
Wedding favors are given to guests as they leave the reception. The
couple can offer traditional favors such as Hershey kisses,
bookmarks, or bubbles. However, if they prefer fall wedding theme
favors, they may consider sample jelly preserves or caramel candy
apples. Small fall leaf ornaments or wind chimes also make perfect
parting gifts.
