Autumn Wedding Inspiration

Autumn weddings are full of beautiful fall colours, intimacy and romance. Complimented by the atmospheric dark nights and chiller evenings. Making for some adorable additions such as fire pits, fireworks and sparklers! But what is it that makes Autumn the new must have season to get married? Is it the romantic ambience of reds, golds, oranges providing their own natural and rich  backdrop? Or could it be because there is less chance of it being too hot? The crisp autumn days are the perfect temperature to keep your hair and makeup in place throughout the day. 

Let’s explore some of the magical attributes that make an autumn wedding, the new popular wedding season. 

Bridesmaid Dresses 

Quite often, the autumn wedding is complimented by the silk/satin floor length bridesmaid dresses, or long sleeveless gowns accompanied by beautiful and elegant shawls – to keep your bridesmaids warm and cosy. Somewhat representing the need for a cosy pyjama day in amongst the snug fall weather. 

Colours can range from an elegant brown or deep orange, representing the beauty of nature and seasonal colours – orange leaves and a romantic woodland vibe. 

Or maybe a piercing deep red or burgundy? Complimented by the use of deep red roses and decorative rose petals. 

Venue

Opt for a rustic venue, like a stunning castle or maybe a stately manor house?  

Maybe something surrounded by nature and woodlands, so you can embrace the natural red, brown and oranges.   

Your photographer will be able to capture some beautiful golden hour imagery. 

Food options 

Autumn is the perfect time for root vegetables, such as; carrots, squash, pumpkin and sweet potato. Appease your guests with an entre of seasonal vegetables and roasted pork belly chunks, accompanied with a local apple sauce! 

Why not opt for an elegant pumpkin soup? & a warm roast dinner to satisfy your guests! 

The ultimate addition to ensure your guests embrace the autumn ambience, will be the smell of mulled wine in the air, with a delicate hint of hot cinnamon buns for the little ones. 

Décor  

Instant rusticity is wooden welcome signs and seating plans, make it your DIY project. Complimented beautifully by deep coloured bunting, burgundy table runners and Rustic log slices to hold your stunning centrepieces. 

A lovely addition to the ambience of an autumnal wedding is the use of candles, delicately places in amongst your table décor. Candles ultimately relax your brainwaves 

Large pumpkins look gorgeous upon entrance to your aisle, or in an array of sizes and colours, organised to create a beautiful centrepiece or make shift vase for your dried flower arrangement. 

Flowers and Decorative Petals  

Mix up fresh flowers and dried flowers – a beautiful combination is the likes of Astilbe, Faith roses, antique roses, golden garden roses, scabiosa, privet berries, blue thistle, agonis and seeded eucalyptus. 

Try incorporating pheasant feathers or petite feather grass feathers into your decor and flowers, or a peacock feather – maybe guinea fowl? Adding an elegant boho vibe. 

Roses, really do represent a stunning and elegant table décor addition. Our Real Rose Stems make gorgeous place mat décor, and a fabulous keep sake for your guests as they last for up to one year – without the need for watering and maintenance.
