Re: Fall Wedding Ideas

Leaves . . . I love different colored leaves. Everytime I think of fall weddings I pictures leaves scattered around the centerpieces and nice rich autumn colored flowers like orange, yellow, burgundy . . .

I love how some people have had leaf shaped bottles of maple syrup as favors . . .

Re: Fall Wedding Ideas

Also -- packets of seeds and apple/pear themes foods and teas are very fall. Cider and things like that -- easy to incorporate into a menu and/or favors

Re: Fall Wedding Ideas

We did a fall themed wedding. I have our review up on the Review board. I have some of our fall things in the pics there. We threw leaves outside the church which looks awesome in the pics. Also we did the maple syrup favors and our invites were fall themed and we even used leaves to line the aisle instead of a runner. It looked great. We also had pew bows with gourds and such. Good Luck

Re: Fall Wedding Ideas

Many halls will let you have a signature drink and you could do a spiced rum as yours. I had fall undertones to my wedding, but I woudn't say it was a fall theme. My girls wore cranberry dresses and carried creme flowers. I wore cream and carried dark red flowers. My chuppa and CP were fall colored gerber daisies and black magic roses with fall leaves mixed in. You can have small touches like I did, or you could totally run with the fall theme- whatever you want!

I had fall cps & bouquets. ( my proofs are in newlyweds)

I had little leaf placecard holders as table # holders. I used ivory instead of white for palcecards & table #s.
bms wore cranbery. reception hall had jewel toned candles, vases with leaves & acorns, leaves & acorns on place card table & mantle.

Not all of this is visible in the pistures though.

Re: Fall Wedding Ideas

can I also make another suggestion? Since we are in NY and we are known for our apples, you can go out east a pick a bunch of apples in different color and give bags of apples as favors or as an item in the OOT bags. Just an idea!

Re: Fall Wedding Ideas

I had fall leaves sprinkled around the base of the centerpieces at the reception. I had miniature leaves for the coctail hour room. My bo-ks were fall colored. I attached a pic where you can hopefully see the flowers.

Re: Fall Wedding Ideas

I just had a halloween wedding, if you want to check out the review:

My wedding review

We used fall colors for everything - red, orange, yellow and brown. For the placecards, we used the leaf shaped cards. For centerpieces, we scattered leaves on the table, and placed in the center a double-walled bowl with autumn garland stuffed inside the wall, and leaf candles floating on top. For the ceremony, my florist decorated the fireplace mantle with autumn garland, and we had chyrsanthenums line the aisle, with scattered leaves and garland. And, for the favors, we used mini-lanterns... it was really cute!
