Who doesn’t love a fall wedding? Seriously, there are so many reasons why it’s the right season for your big day. It’s never too early to start planning for your fall wedding!
The thought of autumn can warm you right up despite the cooler temps. It’s a chance to get outside, to soak in the beautiful surroundings. The way colors pop around the bluffs and river valleys it truly breathtaking. Those sunny fall days when you’re out in your favorite flannel are something to look forward to. And don’t forget gathering around the firepit with friends, sipping something nice with a little pumpkin spice.
If those cozy comforts make you smile, and marriage is in your future, fall may be something to consider. Ok, you’ve thought about it, and yup, you’re on board. A fall wedding it is! Now comes the fun part, planning! You probably already have more than a few ideas in mind, but here are just a few more to help you get the ball rolling to plan your fall wedding.
Picking a Festive Venue
Around here, there’s no shortage of indoor and outdoor venues. If you can find one that has an option to utilize both, even better! Rural and rustic settings can give you the perfect backdrop for photos full of fall foliage. If you choose a location tied to produce such as an apple orchard, it makes sense to tie that theme to your menu.
What’s In-Season
Since it’s harvest time, there’s a cornucopia of options to blend into your big day. We already mentioned apples. Cranberries are another option or you could choose to incorporate dishes featuring in-season root vegetables. It’s also a way to add some festive pizzaz to your decor. You’d be surprised how those little pumpkins can make a huge impact!
Warm Colors, Warm Clothing
Of course fall comes with it’s own pallet of colors – deep reds, oranges, browns. But feel free to add other elements like copper or gold. Search for modern fall wedding colors to get a feel of what’s out there and what works best for your tastes.
Speaking of warm, since it is fall, you know the weather can vary. When picking the perfect dress for yourself and your bridesmaids, you may want to go with an option to keep cozy. If you want to avoid sleeves, a jacket or wrap may be a nice addition to your wedding party wardrobe.
